Urshela is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays.

After missing four games with a hand injury, Urshela was cleared to start the first two of the Yankees' four games versus Toronto to begin the week. He'll take a seat Wednesday after going 1-for-7 between the first two contests, allowing Rougned Odor to pick up a start at the hot corner. Urshela will likely return to the lineup for Thursday's series finale.

Bregman isn't starting Wednesday's game against the Mariners, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

Bregman has recorded hits in each of his last eight appearances, and he slashed .375/.412/.500 with a home run, a double, five RBI and three runs during that time. Marwin Gonzalez will take his place at the hot corner and bat eighth.

Moncada went 3-for-5 with two doubles and a run scored in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Athletics.

A day after seeing his 17-game hit streak snapped, Moncada began a new one. The two doubles give him 25 for the season, second on the team behind Jose Abreu and Tim Anderson (hamstring).

Ramirez went 1-for-2 with a pair of walks and stolen base in Tuesday's 3-0 loss to Minnesota.

The third baseman has logged seven of his 21 stolen bases this year in his last 16 games. Ramirez, along with Myles Straw, were the only Cleveland batters to reach base multiple times in Tuesday's low-scoring contest. Through 126 games, Ramirez is slashing .261/.352/.546 with 32 home runs, 86 RBI and 91 runs scored as the brightest star in Cleveland's offense.

Bregman went 3-for-5 with a two-run home run, a double and three RBI in Tuesday's victory against the Mariners.

The 27-year-old doubled and drove in teammate Michael Brantley in the third inning and singled in the fifth inning before tying the game in the ninth with a two-run blast off Paul Sewald. Since returning from the injured list Aug. 25, Bregman has secured at least one hit in 10 out of 11 games while batting .357 and striking out only three times in 42 at-bats.

Urias (upper leg) isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against Kansas City.

Urias left Sunday's game against the Yankees due to upper leg soreness, and the issue will force him out of the lineup for a second straight contest. Kelvin Gutierrez will start at the hot corner and bat ninth.

Walls was optioned to Triple-A Durham on Tuesday, Steve Carney of Sports Radio 620 WDAE reports.

Walls had been back with the big-league squad since the start of September but went just 2-for-15 at the plate in five games, dropping his season slash line to .203/.301/.305 across 147 plate appearances. He'll head to the minors as the Rays recall reliever Louis Head.

Toro went 2-for-3 with a double, a walk and two RBI in Monday's 11-2 loss to the Astros.

Toro doubled home the only two runs of the game for the Mariners after sending a ball to deep left field off Lance McCullers in the third inning. The 24-year-old has four multi-hit efforts over his last six games and has nine RBI over that span. Since coming over from Houston, Toro is slashing .314/.394/.457 with four homers, 21 RBI, 17 runs scored, two steals and 15:18 BB:K over 37 games.

Urias (upper leg) is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Royals, Nathan Ruiz of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Baltimore won't be calling up another infielder in a corresponding move, so the Orioles will be left with a thin bench in Monday's series opener while Urias tends to the upper-leg injury. With Urias unavailable, look for Jorge Mateo to pick up the start at shortstop, while Kelvin Gutierrez mans third base.

LeMahieu went 2-for-4 with a run and a walk in Sunday's 8-7 loss to the Orioles.

LeMahieu has cobbled together a six-game hitting streak, which has helped him lift his season-long batting average from .264 to .268. That mark still represents LeMahieu's lowest in any season since 2014 with the Rockies (.267 average), but a strong September could still help salvage what has been a disappointing campaign for the 33-year-old. He'll start at second base and stay atop the lineup for Monday's series opener with the Blue Jays.
