Adrianza is not in the lineup Wednesday against the Tigers, Mike Berardino of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

Adrianza has fallen into a near-everyday role with Miguel Sano out with a leg injury. He sits Wednesday after starting 12 of the last 13 games. Willians Astudillo will move out from behind the plate to start at third base, with Chris Gimenez catching.

Berti was called up by the Blue Jays on Wednesday and will make his major-league debut, batting ninth and playing second base against the Astros.

The 28-year-old career minor leaguer was traded away to Cleveland in April only to be sent back in June. He has a career .212/.290/.303 slash line in parts of four seasons at the Triple-A level. He has the ability to provide depth at second base, third base and left field.

Correa (back) will bat third and serve as Houston's DH against the Blue Jays on Wednesday, Jake Kaplan of The Athletic reports.

Correa missed the past six games due to a sore back, but he's back in the lineup for Wednesday's series finale a day after the Astros clinched the division. Look for Correa to work his way back to his typical spot at shortstop over the next few days.

Anderson is on the bench Tuesday against Cleveland, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Anderson has gone just 4-for-24 over his last six games. Leury Garcia will get the start at shortstop for the second time this season.

Correa (back) feels ready to play Wednesday against the Blue Jays after taking 30-to-40 swings Tuesday, Jake Kaplan of The Athletic reports.

Correa will miss his sixth straight game Tuesday while resting a sore back. He may return as the designated hitter for his first game back in the lineup.

Adames (illness) is back in the lineup Tuesday against the Yankees, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Adames missed a pair of starts due to illness. He was able to draw a walk as a pinch hitter Monday and will be a full participant Tuesday, batting eighth and playing shortstop.

Bogaerts went 2-for-4 with an RBI in Monday's 6-2 win over the Orioles.

Bogaerts was back in the lineup one day after giving the team a scare when he felt discomfort in his left shoulder following a swing. He hit cleanup Monday, behind Mookie Betts, Andrew Benintendi and J.D. Martinez, which gives him the best possible opportunity to come up with runners on base. Bogaerts is at 96 RBI, and manager Alex Cora wants to give him an opportunity to reach 100.

Gordon went 1-for-2 with a walk and two-run home run Monday against the Athletics.

Gordon took Daniel Mengden deep in the sixth inning to briefly tie the game. It was his fourth home run of the season and second in as many starts. However, Gordon was also caught stealing, keeping his stolen base total at 30 for the season, exactly half of what he produced in 2017.

Correa (back) took batting practice and ran Monday but is unlikely to return Tuesday, Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Correa has missed four games while nursing a sore back and appears likely to miss at least two more. The Astros have little reason to rush him back with the division nearly clinched, though they'll likely want to get him some at-bats before the playoffs start.

Lindor is not starting Monday against the White Sox, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

With the team locked into the third seed in the AL playoffs, the Indians can afford to give their starters days off over the final week. Erik Gonzalez will start in Lindor's place Monday.
