Adames (quadriceps) won't be in the lineup Wednesday against the Reds, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

The quadriceps issue apparently surfaced during last week's series against the Cardinals, though Adames was able to play through the injury until it flared up during Tuesday's opening frame. Manager Craig Counsell downplayed the issue, but the shortstop could still end up spending an extra day or two on the bench after Wednesday to help avoid aggravating the injury.

Chang went 2-for-4 with a solo home run Tuesday against the Rangers.

Chang led off the bottom of the fifth inning with his fourth home run of the season. While his season-long line is not impressive, Chang has six hits in 22 at-bats since being recalled Aug. 13. Four of those knocks have gone for extra bases. Even given his recent form, Chang could run out of regular playing time soon, as Bobby Bradley (knee) began a rehab assignment Tuesday.

Crawford was removed from Tuesday's win over the Mets with lower-back tightness, Andrew Baggarly of The Athletic reports.

Crawford went 1-for-3 with an RBI prior to being lifted for a pinch hitter during the seventh inning. Manager Gabe Kapler said the veteran shortstop should be considered day-to-day with the injury.

Mateo was removed from Tuesday's game against the Angels with lower-back discomfort, Dan Connolly of The Athletic reports.

Mateo went 2-for-2 with a walk before being replaced in the field at the start of the seventh inning. The severity of the injury is unclear, and the 26-year-old should be considered day-to-day until his status is updated.

Adames was removed from Tuesday's game against the Reds with left quadriceps discomfort, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Adames doubled during the opening frame and came around to score, and he apparently picked up the injury while running the bases. The Brewers labeled his removal as precautionary, so the 25-year-old could end up making a quick return to the field. Jace Peterson entered the lineup in his place and is playing third base, while Luis Urias moves to shortstop.

The Brewers recalled Reyes from Triple-A Nashville on Tuesday.

Reyes has hit .245 with a home run and nine RBI at Triple-A since being optioned Aug. 2, but he now gets called up to replace Eduardo Escobar (hamstring) on Milwaukee's active roster. In the big leagues this season, Reyes has hit .214 with three doubles and two RBI in 56 at-bats.

Anderson (leg) is not in the lineup Tuesday against the Blue Jays.

Anderson said Tuesday he's feeling better but won't play until he's feeling 100 percent, Vinnie Duber of NBC Sports Chicago reports. The star infielder should still be considered day-to-day, with a chance to rejoin the lineup for Wednesday night's game in Toronto. Danny Mendick is playing shortstop and batting eighth Tuesday.

Lindor (oblique) was activated off the injured list Tuesday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Lindor had mentioned returning without a rehab assignment previously and he'll wind up doing just that, with his first game action in over a month coming at the big-league level. It's possible he's handled cautiously initially, but the Mets don't really have any time to waste, as they sit 6.5 games back in the NL East and seven games back of a Wild Card spot.

Wendle is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Phillies, Neil Solondz of the Rays Radio Network reports.

Wendle has started against plenty of southpaws this season, but his day off Tuesday against Ranger Suarez means he's now been on the bench against four of the last six lefties the Rays have faced. Yandy Diaz starts at the hot corner in his absence.

Anderson (leg) is not in the lineup Monday against the Blue Jays.

Anderson is out of the starting nine for the third consecutive contest as he continues to manage some leg soreness. Manager Tony La Russa previously said the injury is minor and that the shortstop's absence is precautionary, but he's nonetheless sitting for the third straight day. Danny Mendick will start at shortstop while Cesar Hernandez handles leadoff duties in his absence.
