Adames is not in Wednesday's lineup against the Orioles.

This will be Adames' second day off in the last 15 games. He is hitting .333/.418/.688 with three home runs and zero steals over that stretch. Joey Wendle gets the start at shortstop and will bat third.

DeJong went 3-for-4 with an RBI infield single in a loss to the Royals on Tuesday.

After an 0-for-4 day upon his return to action Sunday against the Reds, DeJong is now 4-for-9 with four RBI over the subsequent two games. The shortstop is still looking to get his power production going in earnest, however, as he has just one home run over his first 32 plate appearances after averaging a round tripper every 22.1 trips to the batter's box in 2019.

Seager went 2-for-6 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in Tuesday's extra-innings loss to San Francisco.

Seager unknotted a 3-3 game in the third inning with a 447-foot solo shot to center field. The long ball was the second in as many games for the shortstop, who has now collected 10 multi-hit games on the season. Seager is hitting a steady .300/.340/.600 with eight homers, 21 RBI and 18 runs scored in 106 plate appearances in 2020.

Fletcher went 3-for-5 with two RBI and two runs in the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader versus the Astros.

Fletcher hit leadoff in the first game of the twin bill and went 0-for-3, but he dropped to third in the order for the nightcap and produced his third three-hit effort in his last six games. Over that stretch, Fletcher has collected 11 hits in 27 at-bats (.407) while scoring six times and recording four RBI.

Story went 2-for-4 with a triple, two runs scored, a walk and two stolen bases in Tuesday's win over the Diamondbacks.

Story produced his 11th multi-hit game of the season and extended his hitting streak to six games, a span during which he is hitting .320 with a 1.090 OPS, five extra-base hits including two homers), three RBI and three stolen bases.

Bogaerts went 3-for-5 with a double and two runs scored in Tuesday's 9-7 win over the Blue Jays.

Five different Red Sox had multi-hit nights, but it was Bogaerts who led the hit parade. The 27-year-old is slashing a dynamic .355/.400/.613 over his last eight games with two homers, five runs and six RBI.

Lindor went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in a victory over Minnesota on Tuesday.

Lindor gave the team it would did not relinquish with a two-run shot to right field in the sixth inning. The blast was his fifth of the season and his first homer and RBI since Aug. 16. Lindor is slashing .254/.316/.426 on the season.

Crawford went 2-for-4 with a walk, a home run, three RBI and two runs scored in Tuesday's win over the Padres.

Crawford had fallen ice cold after a hot start, managing just two hits in his last 33 at-bats entering play Tuesday. He drew a walk off Chris Paddack in his first plate appearance and then homered on a Paddack fastball the next inning, Crawford's first long ball of the season. He's still a work in progress at the plate, but the Mariners aren't going anywhere and have nothing to lose by giving Crawford everyday at-bats.

Berti went 0-for-1 with three stolen bases, two runs scored and a pair of walks in a 4-0 win over the Mets in the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader.

Berti was a menace on the basepaths in the sixth inning. He drew a walk, then stole second, third and home against the Mets' battery of Jeurys Familia and rookie catcher Ali Sanchez. The crazy sequence gave Berti eight stolen bases, 14 runs scored, six RBI and a homer in 19 games this season. The defensively versatile 30-year-old will likely continue to earn playing time with a spot at the top of the batting order.

Mondesi went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in Tuesday's win over the Cardinals.

It's been a colossal struggle at the plate for Mondesi so far this season -- he has a walk rate under two percent and entered this game with a 35 wRC+, the lowest mark among all qualified hitters. He's making up for those struggles to an extent in rotisserie leagues with seven bags in 11 attempts, but if Mondesi can't provide anything more with the bat, his playing time will eventually take a hit.
