Gelof (knee) will report to Triple-A Las Vegas on Tuesday to begin a rehab assignment, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

Gelof has been on the shelf nearly a month due to a knee laceration but has now been cleared for game action. The 26-year-old is expected to require about 20 at-bats in the minors before being cleared to come off the injured list, so he'll likely need about a week with Las Vegas before rejoining the big-league roster.

Wilson is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Twins.

Leo Rivas will cover third base Sunday, but Wilson appears to have tentatively settled in as the Mariners' top option at the position. Wilson manned the hot corner in each of the previous five games, going 2-for-17 with a double, two walks, and a run scored during that stretch. His run as a regular in the Seattle lineup could be over as soon as Tuesday, when Brendan Donovan (groin) is projected to return from the injured list.

Keith is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics.

The left-handed-hitting Keith will hit the bench for the second time in the series while the Athletics send another southpaw (Gage Jump) to the bump. With Keith on the bench, Hao-Yu Lee will draw the start at third base while Dillon Dingler serves as the Tigers' designated hitter.

Rojas will start at third base and bat eighth in Sunday's game against the Rockies.

Rojas will be included in the lineup for the fifth time in six games, despite going just 1-for-10 with a walk, a stolen base and a run scored over his prior four starts. He could see his playing time dry up in the near future, however, as Kyle Isbel (foot) returned from the injured list Sunday, and Bobby Witt (back) appears on track to be activated Tuesday.

Mayo is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Phillies, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

He'll take a seat against right-hander Zack Wheeler, ending a streak of five straight starts at either third base or DH. The Orioles faced three right-handers and two lefties during that stretch, as Mayo went 4-for-16 with one home run, two walks, five RBI and four runs, but also six strikeouts. Christian Encarnacion-Strand will receive the nod at third base Sunday, but Mayo still looks like he could be in store for fairly steady playing time so long as he's performing adequately at the plate.

White went 3-for-4 with a run scored in Saturday's 8-6 loss to the Tigers.

White had gone 0-for-13 with five strikeouts over his previous three games. This was his fifth multi-hit effort so far, including three games of at least three hits, since he made his big-league debut July 17. Overall, he's batting .304 with a .667 OPS, but he has no home runs, two doubles, no RBI and seven runs scored across his first 14 contests in the majors.

Rosario went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in a 2-0 win over the Cubs on Friday.

Rosario plated the first run in the low-scoring affair with a 450-foot solo shot to center field in the fourth inning. The utility man went deep on both the first and the last day of July but batted just .148 with no long balls and no RBI while striking out at a horrid 53.6 percent rate over 15 games in between. Rosario has started at third base four of the past five times New York has faced a left-handed starter and appears to be holding down the short side of a platoon at the hot corner with Ryan McMahon.

Guzman went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run during Friday's 6-2 loss to the Brewers.

It was a quiet day for the Angels' offense overall, with the only scoring coming via Guzman's two-run shot during the fifth inning. This was the fifth homer of the season for the 22-year-old, who has taken over as the primary third baseman with six starts in the past seven games. He's yet to take advantage of the regular playing time and has a .519 OPS in 10 contests since the All-Star break.

Gelof (knee) is expected to begin a rehab assignment Tuesday with Triple-A Las Vegas, per MLB.com.

Gelof has been on the injured list since July 10 due to a right knee laceration but has continued to make progress in his recovery, taking part in a running progression and baseball activities. Provided no setbacks arise, the 26-year-old likely won't need a lengthy rehab assignment and should return to the big-league club in early August. Before hitting the shelf, Gelof slashed .273/.327/.476 with 11 home runs, 29 RBI, 41 runs and eight stolen bases across 67 contests.

Lewis went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 5-3 win over the Mariners.

Lewis extended his hitting streak to six games with his seventh-inning long ball. He has gone 6-for-22 during the streak, adding four RBI and a steal. The homer Friday ended a 13-game power drought for Lewis, though he still hasn't logged a multi-hit game since July 11. For the season, the infielder is batting .216 with a .690 OPS, 11 homers, 34 RBI, 37 runs scored, 10 steals, 13 doubles and a triple over 76 games.
