McKinstry is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's contest in Milwaukee, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

The lefty-swinging McKinstry will grab a seat as left-hander Jose Quintana toes the slab for the Brewers. McKinstry has been seeing most of his playing time in right field lately, but that spot will be covered by Justyn-Henry Malloy in Wednesday's series finale.

Dingler is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Brewers, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

Dingler caught the first two games of the series, so he'll get a breather in Wednesday's matinee. Tomas Nido will be behind the plate and bat seventh.

Keith is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game in Milwaukee, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

The left-handed-hitting Keith will get a day off as the Brewers send southpaw Jose Quintana to the hill. Spencer Torkelson will be at first base for the Tigers.

Carpenter is not in the lineup for Wednesday's contest in Milwaukee, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

It's southpaw Jose Quintana on the bump for the Brewers, so the left-handed-hitting Carpenter will begin the festivities on the bench. Justyn-Henry Malloy is getting a start in right field, while Gleyber Torres will handle designated-hitter duties.

Correa (wrist) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Mets.

After fouling off a pitch during his third plate appearance of the night in the fifth inning of Tuesday's 6-3 win, Correa was seen shaking his left hand in discomfort and was visited on the field by manager Rocco Baldelli and a team trainer. Following a brief conversation, Correa was lifted for a pinch hitter, and the Twins relayed afterward that he was dealing with a sore left wrist. He'll sit out Wednesday's series finale and will undergo an MRI as the Twins look to glean more information regarding the extent of the injury. Willi Castro will fill in for Correa at shortstop Wednesday, opening up a spot in the starting nine at third base for Brooks Lee.

Rodgers (hip) will start at second base and bat sixth in Wednesday's game versus the Cardinals.

It's Rodgers' first start in a week, as he's been dealing with a hip issue. He did make one pinch-hitting appearance during that stretch and is well enough to return to the lineup for Wednesday's series finale.

Alvarez is not in the lineup for Wednesday's contest in St. Louis.

Alvarez homered in Tuesday's victory over the Cardinals but will get some rest for Wednesday's matinee. Jose Altuve is in the designated hitter spot for the series finale, while Chas McCormick will play left field.

Wallner (hamstring) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Mets.

Wallner's absence from the starting nine comes as little surprise after he was lifted early in Tuesday's 6-3 win due to left hamstring tightness. The Twins are expected to send Wallner in for an MRI on Wednesday, but the severity of his hamstring injury isn't yet known. DaShawn Keirsey will draw the start Wednesday in right field in place of Wallner, who can be viewed as day-to-day until the Twins provide further word on his situation.

Crawford (knee) threw a bullpen session Saturday, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.

Crawford opened the season on the injured list with right patellar tendinopathy. Red Sox manager Alex Cora remains unsure of what the next step is in Crawford's progression, but the manager noted Crawford is not "close to being back with us."

Wong (finger) has begun baseball activities including some catching drills, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.

Wong is out indefinitely with a fracture of his left pinky finger. Boston manager Alex Cora was optimistic about Wong doing the catching drills and noted that Wong is progressing.
