Witt (forearm) is starting at shortstop and batting second Tuesday against the Twins.

The 24-year-old departed Monday's contest after being hit by a pitch in the left forearm, but he's back in the starting nine a day later. Witt has continued to mash during the first half of August with four homers, 12 RBI, 10 runs and a .333/.383/.738 slash line through 10 games.

Schneemann is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Cubs.

Schneemann will yield to Brayan Rocchio at shortstop Tuesday despite right-hander Javier Assad starting for Chicago. Schneemann is 5-for-19 (.263) in August and has a .714 OPS on the year.

Jimenez went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run during Monday's 4-2 win over the Angels.

In his 30th MLB game, Jimenez finally logged a roundtripper, taking Davis Daniel yard in the third inning for a two-run homer. The 23-year-old shortstop is slashing .224/.309/.341 across 97 plate appearances with a 30.9 percent strikeout rate. He's been the Blue Jays' primary shortstop since Bo Bichette (calf) went down but could cede playing time to Ernie Clement now that infielder Will Wagner is with the big-league club.

Caballero is expected to see opportunities in the outfield following the promotion of Junior Caminero, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

With Caminero likely to get his fair share of chances at the hot corner, the Rays are looking to deploy Caballero elsewhere to get both on the field at the same time. "Just trying to be more useful for the team, trying to be ready for anything to come up, and if something comes up I want to be ready for it," said Caballero on preparing for outfield duty. "I don't just want to be out there and standing. I want to do my job and try to help the team in any way possible." Caballero last manned the outfield last season, making one start in left field.

Seager went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer in Monday's 5-4 loss to Boston.

The veteran shortstop tied the game at 3-3 when he launched a 384-foot, two-run homer off southpaw reliever Bailey Horn in the seventh inning. Seager has tormented the Red Sox this season, hitting .438 (7-for-16) with four homers, six RBI and five runs scored in four games against them. Overall, the 30-year-old now sports a .277/.356/.506 slash line with 63 RBI and 59 runs scored across 458 plate appearances.

Witt was diagnosed with a bruise after being hit by a pitch on his left forearm/wrist during Monday's loss to the Twins, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.

The team sent Witt for imaging after the game likely as a precaution, and the results came back negative. Kansas City's medical staff figures to give the star shortstop a quick look Tuesday to make sure there isn't any significant swelling, but all signs point to him being in the starting lineup for the second game of the series.

Rocchio is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Cubs.

Though he's been picking up more playing time of late while he's thus far put together a .231/.310/.423 slash line in August, Rocchio isn't yet locked back in as an everyday player for the Guardians. Manager Stephen Vogt hasn't been leaning on a conventional platoon at shortstop between the switch-hitting Rocchio and the lefty-hitting Daniel Schneemann, either. Both players will hit the bench Monday against lefty Shota Imanaga while Tyler Freeman gets the nod at shortstop.

Schneemann is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Cubs.

Schneemann and fellow left-handed hitters Bo Naylor and Will Brennan will hit the bench for the series opener while the Cubs send southpaw Shota Imanaga to the hill. Tyler Freeman will get the nod at shortstop in place of Schneemann.

Crawford (finger) did light tossing out to 60 feet before Sunday's game against the Blue Jays, MLB.com reports.

It marked the first time the recovering infielder was able to throw since going on the injured list July 23. Crawford had been engaging in infield fielding practice since Aug. 2 as well, so a return before the end of the month, even when factoring in a rehab assignment, could be within the range of outcomes.

Schuemann went 0-for-1 with three walks and a run in a win over the Blue Jays on Sunday.

The rookie displayed impressive plate discipline out of the bottom of the order, pushing his season on-base percentage to .344 with his first multi-walk tally since July 25. Schuemann has now reached safely in six straight starts, a stretch where he boasts a .450 OBP across 20 plate appearances.
