Edman went 0-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base in Tuesday's loss to the Rangers.

Edman wound up stealing his ninth base of the year after walking in the sixth. He leads the Cardinals in steals but otherwise has lacked steady production at the plate. His last RBI was back on May 23 and he's notched just six hits in 12 games since then. For the year, the 28-year-old switch hitter is slashing .255/.316/.432 with six homers, 21 RBI, 30 runs and a 16:31 BB:K over 214 plate appearances.

Perdomo is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Nationals.

With an .855 OPS over 167 plate appearances on the season, the switch-hitting Perdomo has worked his way out of a strict platoon with Nick Ahmed, but the Diamondbacks will still hold Perdomo out of the lineup against left-handed pitching occasionally. Perdomo, who went 1-for-3 with two walks, a stolen base and a run scored in Tuesday's 10-5 win, will give way to Ahmed at shortstop Wednesday while southpaw Patrick Corbin takes the hill for Washington.

Bogaerts (wrist) is not in the starting lineup against Seattle on Wednesday, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

Bogaerts will get at least one more game off as he deals with the soreness in his left wrist that has kept him out since Sunday. The shortstop is hopeful he can avoid a stint on the injured list, but if he can't return by Friday, the Padres may need to place the infielder on the shelf so they're not playing a man short. Ha-Seong Kim is playing shortstop with Jake Cronenworth at second base for Wednesday's finale against the Mariners.

Marcano will sit Wednesday against Oakland, Kevin Gorman of TribLive.com reports.

Marcano will head to the bench as the Pirates face southpaw Hogan Harris on the mound. Rodolfo Castro will slide over to shortstop while Mark Mathias enters the lineup at second base and bats seventh in the series finale with the Athletics.

Wendle went 2-for-4 with a run scored in Tuesday's win over Kansas City.

Wendle has now hit safely in his last four games, going 8-for-16 with four doubles in that span. His recent hot stretch boosts his slash line to .250/.325/.389 through 82 plate appearances this season. The veteran shortstop has five RBI, 10 runs scored and a stolen base in his second year with Miami.

De La Cruz went 1-for-3 with a double, two walks and a run scored in Tuesday's 9-8 win over the Dodgers.

De La Cruz's first career MLB hit was a 112-mph double to the gap in right-center field, which is already the hardest-hit ball by any Reds player this season. He showcased his patience by drawing two walks and also recorded a sprint speed of 30.4 feet per second. He has all the tools to be a star and should be a set-it-and-forget-it player in fantasy lineups now that he's up in the majors for good.

McLain went 3-for-6 with an RBI and a run scored in Tuesday's 9-8 win over the Dodgers.

All three of McLain's hits went for singles, but his last one came with the bases loaded in the ninth to walk it off for the Reds. Across 20 games in the majors, the 23-year-old has nine multi-hit efforts and is slashing a ridiculous .341/.396/.500 with two homers, 10 RBI, 17 runs and a 7:25 BB:K. Even with the promotion of Elly De La Cruz, McLain remained at shortstop and appears to be cemented into the No. 2 spot for a young and promising Reds lineup.

Lindor went 1-for-3 with a walk and a two-run home run in Tuesday's 6-4 loss to Atlanta.

He gave the Mets a 2-1 lead in the third inning by taking Bryce Elder deep. Lindor is flashing some power -- four of his 11 homers on the season have come in the last 10 games -- but little else is going right for him at the plate right now, as he's batting .154 (6-for-39) during that stretch to drag his OPS on the year down to a career-low .703.

Schmitt will take a seat Tuesday versus the Rockies, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.

Schmitt will get a day off after he went 1-for-12 with a double and four strikeouts while starting all three games of the Giants' series with Baltimore. Veteran Brandon Crawford will replace him at shortstop and bat ninth in the series opener with Colorado.

Bogaerts (wrist) remains out of the lineup Tuesday against the Mariners.

This is the third straight absence for Bogaerts as he works through some nagging soreness in his left wrist. It has apparently been an issue since the spring. Ha-Seong Kim will play shortstop and bat leadoff for the Padres on Tuesday, with Rougned Odor covering second base and hitting eighth.
