Schneemann is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Orioles.

Even with Baltimore sending right-hander Dean Kremer to the mound, the lefty-hitting Schneemann will begin Friday's contest on the bench. Since the beginning of July, Schneemann has slashed .161/.217/.357 with two home runs, six RBI and a 33.3 percent strikeout rate across 60 plate appearances. Brayan Rocchio will start at shortstop and bat eighth.

Hamilton is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Rangers, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.

Hamilton started the previous three games but has just three hits in 33 at-bats since the All-Star break, and he'll sit Friday versus Texas righty Jose Urena. Nick Sogard will make his major-league debut at second base, batting eighth.

Oakland reinstated Hernaiz (ankle) from the 60-day injured list Friday.

Hernaiz had been on the injured list since May 8 due to a left ankle sprain. He started his rehab assignment at Triple-A Las Vegas on July 20, and across his nine games, he slashed .364/.432/.545 with two stolen bases, three doubles, one home run and two RBI across 37 plate appearances. To make room for Hernaiz on the 40-man roster, the Athletics transferred right-hander Luis Medina (elbow) to the 60-day injured list. Hernaiz had been given a brief look in an everyday role prior to landing on the IL, but he may have to settle for a utility role upon his return with Zack Gelof, Abraham Toro and Max Schuemann seemingly locked in as Oakland's starters at second base, third base and shortstop, respectively.

Walls isn't in the Rays' lineup for Friday's game against the Astros, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Walls has gone just 1-for-14 with nine strikeouts over his last five games, and he'll now get a day off to regroup. Jose Caballero will slide over to cover shortstop while Curtis Mead starts at the hot corner.

Reds manager David Bell said Friday that McLain (shoulder) recently suffered a stress reaction in his rib cage, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

McLain had been hoping to begin a rehab assignment Aug. 12 and Bell added Friday that it's possible that happens. The young infielder has been working his way back from left shoulder surgery, which he had back in late March. McLain is hoping to rejoin the Reds at some point before the end of the season.

Arcia went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Thursday's win over the Marlins.

He connected on Atlanta's third long ball of the game, launching a Max Meyer fastball over the left-field fence in the third inning. Arcia has hit safely in 12 straight games, a stretch in which the veteran shortstop is slashing .350/.409/.600 with three homers, four runs and six RBI. Thursday's blast was his 10th of the year, the fourth time in his career he's reached double digits in a season.

Winn went 2-for-5 with a two-run homer in Thursday's loss to the Cubs.

Winn singled in his third trip to the plate before later adding a two-run blast in the top of the seventh to put the Cardinals on top 3-2. It marked the shortstop's third home run in his last seven games and he's now hit safely in four straight. Over the former stretch, Winn is slashing .296 (8-for-27) with six RBI and four runs scored. He's also posted seven multi-hit performances over his last 16 contests.

Witt went 2-for-4 with a home run, a double, a walk, two runs and two RBI in Thursday's 7-1 victory over Detroit.

Witt did most of his damage late in the contest, belting a solo homer in the eighth inning and adding a run-scoring double in the ninth. Witt is the first player in MLB history to go 20-20 in each of his first three seasons. He is one of four major-leaguers to reach the 20-20 mark this season.

Swanson went 2-for-3 with a walk, a double, a run scored and two RBI in Thursday's 5-4 win over the Cardinals.

Swanson continued his recent run of improved play and extended his hitting streak to three games. Over his last 10 contests, the shortstop is batting .343. It's been a disappointing season overall for Swanson, as he's batting just .223 with a .647 OPS, with the former in line to be a career worst.

Schneemann is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Orioles.

The lefty-hitting Schneemann will head to the bench while southpaw Trevor Rogers takes the hill for Baltimore. Brayan Rocchio will rejoin the starting nine, covering shortstop in Schneemann's stead.
