Pauley is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Pirates.

Pauley went 2-for-6 with a double and an RBI over the Marlins' first two games of the season, but he'll head to the bench for a second straight day with Pittsburgh sending another southpaw (Andrew Heaney) to the bump. Jonah Bride will step in at third base for the lefty-hitting Pauley, who looks poised to fill a strong-side platoon role until Connor Norby (oblique) is ready to return from the injured list.

Ramiriez (wrist) is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Royals, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.

The third baseman suffered a sprained right wrist on a stolen-base attempt during the third inning Saturday, so it's not a surprise he'll be out of the starting nine for at least one game. Ramirez is undergoing additional testing and should be considered day-to-day in the meantime. Gabriel Arias will shift to the hot corner while Daniel Schneemann starts at second base in the series finale at Kansas City.

Clement is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Orioles.

Clement will be on the bench for the second time in the four-game series while Will Wagner fills in for him at third base. Though the right-handed-hitting Clement should be a regular part of the lineup versus left-handed pitching, he could be more of a part-time option at third base.

McKinstry went 2-for-4 with an RBI and a run scored in Saturday's 7-3 loss to the Dodgers.

McKinstry paced Detroit's offense from the leadoff spot, collecting a third of the team's hits and runs. The 30-year-old has seen action in all three of the Tigers' games so far, with starts in the last two, and he's already seen action at second base, third base and shortstop. McKinstry doesn't figure to play much when southpaws are on the hill, but he appears to have a regular lineup spot secured against righties and can play a number of defensive positions when he's called upon.

Candelario served as the designated hitter and went 1-for-3 with a walk in Saturday's 3-2 win over San Francisco.

Candelario, who started Opening Day at third base, moved to DH on Saturday when Spencer Steer was given a rest day. Steer is dealing with a wonky shoulder that's limiting him to DH for now. Candelario will see time at third base, first base and DH, while the Reds cope with Steer's situation and Austin Hays' calf injury. Gavin Lux, who is also expected to get starts at the hot corner, has been filling in for Hays in left field. Candelario is keeping himself in the lineup by collecting three hits, two walks and three RBI through eight plate appearances to begin the year.

Peraza went 1-for-1 with a two-run home run Saturday in a 20-9 win against the Brewers.

Peraza didn't start the contest, but he was given a chance to pinch hit with New York up 18-6 in the seventh inning. The 24-year-old took advantage of the opportunity, drilling a two-run blast to left field. The long ball was the Yankees' ninth of the game, establishing a franchise record.

Westburg went 4-for-5 with two home runs and an additional run scored in a 9-5 win over Toronto on Saturday.

Westburg is off to a blazing start in 2025 with a robust .462 batting average (6-for-13) to go along with three home runs and four runs through three games. He took advantage of a rusty Max Scherzer and followed up Colton Cowser's leadoff homer with a 434-foot smash to left-center to give the Orioles an early 2-0 lead. Westburg's second homer of the contest came in the seventh inning and finished the scoring for the game. He's batted leadoff against right-handed pitchers in the first three games of the season and has some serious run potential this year.

Caminero went 3-for-5 on Saturday against the Rays.

The Rays faced a right-handed starter for the first time this season and Caminero predictably occupied the third spot in the order. He's gone 4-for-9 with a double and a run scored across two games.

Suarez went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk Saturday in a 4-3 loss to the Cubs.

Suarez set off an Arizona rally in the ninth inning with a two-run blast off Cubs closer Ryan Pressly. The veteran third baseman has now homered in each of Arizona's first three games of the campaign, belting four long balls and racking up seven RBI in that span. Suarez's red-hot start is a stark contrast to his early-season struggles last year -- he had just six homers and a .196 batting average through the end of June in his first campaign with the Diamondbacks in 2024.

Smith left Saturday's game against Boston in the first inning due to a left quadriceps contusion, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Smith suffered the injury when he collided into the fence in foul territory while attempting to field a flyball. He managed to initially stay in but was replaced by Ezequiel Duran in the bottom of the first inning. Smith will undergo further testing to determine the severity of the injury, but he'll likely be held out of Sunday's series finale. With Josh Jung working through neck spasms, Duran could be in line for starts at third base.
