Anderson went 1-for-4 with an RBI on Wednesday against the Guardians.

Anderson delivered his lone hit in the third inning, which drove in Clint Frazier. That was only his third RBI across 21 games since he returned from a knee injury May 2. Anderson has been a significant disappointment overall this season, as he has yet to homer across 138 plate appearances, though he's salvaged some fantasy value by swiping six bags.

Allen is not in the lineup Wednesday night against the Mariners.

Aledmys Diaz is at shortstop and Tony Kemp will cover second base. Allen has shown a bit more life at the plate in recent weeks, but he holds an overall .205/.247/.260 season slash line.

Turner went 1-for-5 with a two-run homer in Wednesday's win over Arizona.

Turner smacked a two-out, two-run homer off Jose Ruiz to tie the game 5-5 in the bottom of the ninth before the Phillies would win it in extras. The long ball was Turner's fifth of the season and first since May 6. The clutch hit may be what Turner needs to get his season going -- he's still slashing just .250/.295/.392 with 25 runs scored, 13 RBI and six stolen bases through his first 217 plate appearances with the Phillies.

Berti is starting at third base and batting leadoff Wednesday in Colorado, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

This is Berti's fifth straight start in the leadoff spot and his third start in the last five games at third base as he fills in for the slumping Jean Segura. Berti is 7-for-18 at the plate over that span.

Adames went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's 4-0 win over the Astros.

Adames followed up a leadoff double by Christian Yelich with a two-run home run to open the scoring in the first inning. The shortstop was retired in his next three at-bats and is still struggling with consistency at the plate, but he's second on the team in homers with nine. Last year, Adams finished with 31 home runs and 98 RBI while slashing .238/.298/.458. He's currently slashing just .204/.290/.381.

DeJong is not in the lineup Wednesday against the Reds.

This is a rare day off for DeJong, who has hit his way back into an everyday role with a .291/.371/.616 slash line through 97 plate appearances. He's sitting on eight homers, 18 RBI, three steals and 21 runs scored in 25 games. Tommy Edman will cover shortstop and bat seventh Wednesday versus Cincinnati.

Rojas is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against Atlanta, Kirsten Watson of SportsNet LA reports.

Rojas gets a breather for the series finale. Chris Taylor will handle shortstop duties and hit ninth against Bryce Elder and company.

Twins manager Rocco Baldelli said prior to Wednesday's game against the Giants that Correa is dealing with a muscle strain in the arch of his left foot in addition to plantar fasciitis in his heel, John Shipley of the St. Paul Pioneer Press. "I think we get to Friday and some of our decisions might be made for us," Baldelli said, when asked if Correa would require a stint on the 10-day injured list.

After undergoing an MRI on Tuesday, Correa was revealed to be dealing with bruising and inflammation to the heel, but Baldelli's latest update suggests the veteran shortstop's injury could be more serious. Correa is out of the lineup for the second day in a row Wednesday, and the Twins still seem to be holding out hope that the 28-year-old can show enough improvement coming out of Thursday's off day to avoid the IL. Kyle Farmer is filling in at shortstop Wednesday and would be the primary option to pick up starts at the position if Correa requires a shutdown of any length of time.

Bichette went 3-for-5 with two runs scored in Tuesday's rout of the Rays.

The Blue Jays nearly set franchise records with a 20-run, 27-hit outburst, and Bichette carved out his share of the production. It's the third time in the last six games the shortstop has rapped out three hits, and since the calendar flipped to May he's slashing .333/.375/.489 with three homers, a steal, 12 runs and 12 RBI in 21 contests.

Duran is absent from the lineup Wednesday against the Pirates as he nurses rib cage soreness, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Duran was replaced by Brad Miller at the plate in the ninth inning of Tuesday's 6-1 win, and now an explanation behind Duran's departure is known. The 23-year-old believes he's OK, so he can be considered day-to-day heading into the Rangers' series with Baltimore that begins Friday.
