Campbell is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mariners.

Campbell started the previous nine games -- including a look at designated hitter Monday -- and will receive a day off after batting .280 (7-for-25) with four walks, a double, a homer, five RBI and two runs during that span. The rookie second baseman still has an underwhelming .675 OPS through his first 65 big-league games, but the departure of Rafael Devers to San Francisco should help Campbell maintain a consistent spot in the lineup, at least for the immediate future.

Burr (shoulder) reported to Single-A Dunedin to begin a rehab assignment Tuesday, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.

The right-hander was pulled off his rehab assignment in late May and received a cortisone injection to help treat his shoulder inflammation, and he's ready to return to minor-league games after ramping his throwing program back up. Burr has been on the shelf all season due to the shoulder issues and will likely require a handful of appearances in the minors before being cleared for his 2025 debut with Toronto.

Manager Bruce Bochy said Tuesday that Smith is dealing with a minor hamstring issue, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.

The skipper added that although Carter will not require an IL stint, he's likely to miss another game or two while he recovers. Most of the 27-year-old's recent playing time has come as Texas' designated hitter, though Alejandro Osuna will fill in at DH on Tuesday.

Gil (lat) said he's scheduled to throw against batters Saturday, Jorge Castillo of ESPN.com reports.

It will be Gil's first time facing hitters since he suffered the right lat strain during spring training. The right-hander isn't expected to rejoin the Yankees until after the All-Star break, but a rehab assignment may not be too far off if he can continue ramping up his throwing progression with no setbacks.

The Athletics reinstated Urshela (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list Tuesday.

Urshela got seven hits across 14 at-bats with a home run and two doubles in four games during his rehab assignment with Triple-A Las Vegas. The 33-year-old is set to return after missing time since May 22 due to the hamstring injury he suffered. In a corresponding move, Seth Brown was placed on the 10-day injured list Tuesday due to an elbow injury.

The Athletics placed Brown on the 10-day injured list Tuesday due to left elbow lateral epicondylitis.

More commonly known as "tennis elbow," Brown's injury has kept him sidelined for the Athletics' past four games and will officially cost him at least another week. He'll be replaced on the active roster by Gio Urshela (hamstring), who was activated off the injured list Tuesday.

Jansen isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Orioles, Ryan Bass of FanDuel Sports Network Sun reports.

Jansen has collected a base hit in each of his last four games, but he'll take a seat Tuesday while Matt Thaiss starts at catcher and bats seventh for the Rays.

Lukes (concussion) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Buffalo on Wednesday, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Lukes landed on the 7-day injured list last week, but his concussion symptoms appear to have dissipated. He's slated to play at least a couple games with Buffalo, but a return from the IL for the Blue Jays' series this weekend against the White Sox is possible.

Turnbull is expected to pitch during Friday's game against the White Sox, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca reports.

The Blue Jays aren't ready to divulge whether Turnbull will be used as a traditional starter or bulk reliever, but he will be a big part of the pitching plan for the series opener versus the White Sox. Turnbull has yielded a total of one run with a 2:2 K:BB over 4.1 innings covering two relief appearances for Toronto. He threw 51 pitches in his last outing Sunday versus the Phillies, so Turnbull will not be available for a full starter's workload Friday.

Scherzer (thumb) is aiming to throw 70-to-75 pitches in his rehab start with Triple-A Buffalo on Wednesday, which could be the final outing in the minors before being reinstated from the injured list, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.

The 40-year-old allowed two runs and threw 56 pitches over 4.1 innings during his first rehab start Friday, and if he's able to build on that workload Wednesday, his next stop could be back in the big leagues. Scherzer made just one start for Toronto in late March before the thumb inflammation sent him to the injured list, though it was an injury he battled throughout spring training.
