Red Sox manager Alex Cora said Wednesday that Crawford will undergo right wrist surgery that will "most likely" keep the pitcher out for the remainder of the season, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports.

Crawford began the season on the injured list with a right knee injury that first cropped up over the winter. However, it's Crawford's wrist that's been the bigger issue over the last few weeks, and the decision has been made to have surgery. The specific nature of the operation isn't clear, but the team should have more details on Crawford's status after surgery.

Wade will start in right field and bat seventh in Wednesday's game against the Red Sox, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

After signing with the Angels and getting added to the 26-man active roster June 10, Wade played sparingly over his first week and a half with the team, but he's since moved into a strong-side platoon role in the corner outfield after Jorge Soler (back) landed on the shelf. Wade -- who has gone 4-for-23 with one stolen base, three runs and a 1:10 BB:K since joining the Halos -- will pick up his fifth start in six games Wednesday.

The Orioles optioned Hiraldo to Triple-A Norfolk on Wednesday.

Hiraldo didn't make any appearances out of the bullpen in his latest stint with the Orioles, which lasted just three days. His removal from the 26-man active roster frees up a spot for right-hander Brandon Young, who was recalled from Norfolk to start Wednesday's contest versus the Rangers.

The Orioles recalled Young from Triple-A Norfolk on Wednesday.

Young will start Wednesday's game against the Rangers. The right-hander won't be fully stretched out, as he just recently returned from a shoulder issue at Norfolk and threw 65 pitches in his last outing. Young is likely in line for just one start with the Orioles, so he will likely be optioned to Norfolk within the next couple of days.

O'Hoppe is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's contest against the Red Sox, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

O'Hoppe went 1-for-4 while playing 10 innings behind the plate in Tuesday night's 3-2 win and will now get a breather for Wednesday's matinee. Travis d'Arnaud will start behind the dish and bat sixth for the Angels.

Neto (shoulder) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Red Sox, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

Neto jammed his right shoulder on a stolen base attempt in the eighth inning of Tuesday's 3-2 extra-inning win and was removed from the contest in the ninth after making a wild throw. His injury is to the same shoulder that he had surgically repaired last November, and he is scheduled to undergo an MRI, per Sam Blum of The Athletic. The Angels could have more information on Neto's status after Wednesday's contest. Scott Kingery will fill in at shortstop and bat ninth.

Hamilton is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Angels, Rob Bradford of WEEI.com reports.

Hamilton will hit the bench for the third time in four games, with all three absences coming while the Red Sox have gone up against left-handed starting pitchers. The 27-year-old had occupied the keystone in each of the previous six matchups with right-handers, however, and he could retain a regular spot in the lineup after the Red Sox demoted the struggling Kristian Campbell to Triple-A Worcester last week. Campbell may end up getting most of his reps at first base when he returns from the minors, but Hamilton will still be at risk of moving into more of a utility role when Alex Bregman (quadriceps) is activated from the injured list. Marcelo Mayer has been serving as the Red Sox's primary third baseman, but he'll spell Hamilton at second base Wednesday and could end up seeing the bulk of his reps at the keystone once Bregman is back in the fold.

Toro is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's contest against the Angels.

Toro is out of the lineup for a second straight day after starting the previous eight and 21 of the last 22 tilts. The Red Sox are facing a lefty (Yusei Kikuchi) for the second consecutive contest, and the switch-hitting Toro has been much better versus righties (.831 OPS, five home runs) than lefties (.679 OPS, zero home runs) this season. Romy Gonzalez and Nate Eaton will handle first base and third base, respectively.

Anthony is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Angels.

The left-handed-hitting Anthony was in the lineup both of the previous two times the Red Sox faced a southpaw, but he'll get a breather Wednesday as the Angels send lefty Yusei Kikuchi to the hill. Wilyer Abreu will start in right field and Rob Refsnyder will serve as the designated hitter for Boston.

The Rays pulled Palacios off his rehab assignment Tuesday while the 28-year-old continues to deal with intermittent soreness in his right knee, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports. "He's not moving like he wants to move," Rays manager Kevin Cash said of Palacios.

After opening the season on the injured list while recovering from a finger fracture, Palacios was cleared to join the Rays on April 17, but he sprained his right knee in his 2025 debut with the big club and was returned to the IL a day later. The Rays cleared Palacios to head out on a rehab assignment June 10, but after slashing just .125/.243/.156 in eight games between the rookie-level Florida Complex League and Triple-A Durham, he's now been shut down again. Cash noted that Palacios isn't dealing with any aggravation of the knee injury, but it's unclear how long the infielder/outfielder might need to rest before he's ready to resume his rehab assignment.
