Larnach isn't in the Twins' lineup Wednesday against the Yankees.

The left-handed bat of Larnach will retreat to the dugout Wednesday with lefty Carlos Rodon set to start on the bump for the Yankees. Larnach's absence will move Jose Miranda into the DH role while Carlos Santana starts at first base.

Vogelbach is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Orioles.

He'll retreat to the bench after he served as the Blue Jays' designated hitter in each of the last four games while going 4-for-15 with a double and three RBI. Despite getting increased opportunities of late, Vogelbach still looks like he'll be out of the lineup more often than not while the Blue Jays have Justin Turner and Vladimir Guerrero share first base and the DH spot.

The Red Sox optioned Heineman to Triple-A Worcester on Wednesday.

Heineman's latest stint in the majors lasted just one day, and he didn't make an appearance. He's clearing out to make room on the roster for the return of Tyler O'Neill (knee) from the 10-day injured list.

O'Hearn is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's game in Toronto.

Right-hander Trevor Richards is serving as an opener for the Blue Jays, but he's always had reverse splits. It's possible O'Hearn will pinch hit when Toronto goes to the bullpen (Bowden Francis is slated for bulk relief), but O'Hearn will begin the game on the bench.

The Red Sox recalled Heineman from Triple-A Worcester on Tuesday, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.

It's not yet clear what the corresponding transaction will be. Heineman, 32, had one brief stint with the Red Sox earlier this season, receiving one plate appearance. The catcher has a career .580 OPS over parts of five seasons at the major-league level.

O'Hearn went 1-for-3 with a walk, a stolen base and one run scored in Monday's 7-2 win over the Blue Jays.

O'Hearn's steal was his first of the season, as the 30-year-old is not typically known for his speed. He has been fairly steady at the plate, going 9-for-33 (.273) with two extra-base hits over his last nine games. O'Hearn is at a .270/.335/.447 slash line with seven home runs, 18 RBI and 21 runs scored over 167 plate appearances. He continues to play in a strong-side platoon role, mainly as the Orioles' designated hitter.

Vogelbach will start at designated hitter and bat cleanup in Monday's contest against the Orioles.

Vogelbach will be making his third straight start at DH after producing four hits and three RBI between Saturday and Sunday's games against the Pirates. Vogelbach has now started six of the last 11 games in the DH slot. It's the same number of starts over that span as Justin Turner, who has been the DH four times and played first base twice during the stretch.

Turner is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Orioles.

Turner has seen his playing time slip lately amidst his struggles, as he's now been out of the lineup for two of the previous three contests and five of the last 11 games. Daniel Vogelbach will make a third straight start at designated hitter.

The Rays optioned Aranda to Triple-A Durham on Monday.

Aranda will head to the minors to open up a spot on the 26-man active roster for outfielder Josh Lowe (oblique), who was reinstated from the 10-day injured list. After opening the season on the IL while recovering from a fractured right ring finger, Aranda was activated May 14. He had settled into the large side of a platoon at designated hitter with Harold Ramirez, but even with limited exposure to lefties, Aranda hit just .213/.288/.319 over 52 plate appearances before Tampa Bay elected to send him to Durham. Ramirez should continue to serve as the Rays' primary option at DH versus right-handed pitching, but manager Kevin Cash could rotate a number of players at the DH spot versus lefties while Aranda is out of the mix.

Red Sox manager Alex Cora said Sunday that he's hopeful Yoshida (thumb) could begin a minor-league rehab assignment later this week, Christopher Smith of The Springfield Republican reports.

Cora's comments came one day after Yoshida took live batting practice on the field and reported no issues with his strained left thumb, which has kept him out of action since April 28. Though the skipper didn't offer up a firm timeline for when Yoshida might be activated from the 10-day injured list, the 30-year-old may only need a handful of games in the minors this weekend before he's deemed ready to rejoin the Red Sox. Once activated, Yoshida should settle in as Boston's primary designated hitter, though he's likely to sit frequently against left-handed pitching.
