Rays manager Kevin Cash said that McClanahan (elbow) touched 94-to-95 mph in a 16-pitch live batting practice session Wednesday at Tropicana Field, Tricia Whitaker of Bally Sports Sun reports.

Cash added that McClanahan -- who is coming back from August 2023 Tommy John surgery -- is "mentally ready to go" and "excited about a normal offseason." The left-hander is expected to be ready for spring training and next year's Opening Day, although he is expected to have workload restrictions in place after missing the entirety of the 2024 campaign.

The Twins recalled Martin from Triple-A St. Paul on Wednesday, Bobby Nightengale of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

Martin is absorbing the roster spot of the injured Matt Wallner (oblique). Martin, Manuel Margot and Jose Miranda are options to see more playing time with Wallner shelved.

The Twins placed Wallner on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with a left oblique strain, Bobby Nightengale of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

Wallner suffered the injury during a pinch-hitting appearance in Tuesday's loss to the Marlins, and it will cost him the remainder of the regular season. He would be eligible to return during the ALDS if replacing an injured player, although neither the Twins making it that far nor Wallner being healthy by then is guaranteed. Austin Martin has rejoined the active roster in Wallner's place.

Bichette will undergo surgery Wednesday to have a pin inserted into his fractured right middle finger, Kaitlyn McGrath of The Athletic reports.

The pin will ensure the finger heals correctly. Bichette is expected to make a full recovery from surgery by the time spring training rolls around. The 26-year-old was limited to just 81 games in 2024 due to injury, slashing a disappointing .225/.277/.322 with four home runs.

Rortvedt is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Tigers.

Rortvedt will get a breather after he went 2-for-7 with an RBI while starting behind the plate in each of the Rays' last three games. Logan Driscoll will fill in for Rortvedt at catcher.

Walls is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Tigers.

Walls will hit the bench after a stretch of three consecutive starts and five starts in the past six games. The infielder has produced a weak .546 OPS in September, but that mark is actually an improvement over his season-long OPS of .519. He continues to see semi-regular playing time largely because of his defensive work.

Gonzalez is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's contest in Toronto, Alex Speier of The Boston Globe reports.

Gonzalez had started three of the previous four tilts but will begin the series finale in Toronto on the bench. Nick Sogard will handle third base for the Red Sox on Wednesday.

Rafaela is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game in Toronto, Alex Speier of The Boston Globe reports.

Rafaela appears to be receiving a routine day off after he started each of the previous five contests. Jarren Duran will shift over to center field in Rafaela's stead, and Enmanuel Valdez will cover second base for the Red Sox.

Diaz is not in the lineup for Wednesday's contest in Detroit.

For the second time over the last three games, Diaz will exit the lineup as he continues to see his playing time dip this month. Jonathan Aranda is getting another start at first base for the Rays while Brandon Lowe handles designated-hitter duties.

Rendon (oblique) hasn't yet been ruled out from returning this season, though Angels manager Ron Washington suggested Tuesday that the third baseman's return is unlikely, Andrew Seligman of the Associated Press reports.

Rendon last played for Los Angeles on Sept. 7. He subsequently missed two games due to what was originally diagnosed as a sore back, and despite initially being expected to be out just a few days, Rendon was eventually moved to the injured list and deemed to be suffering from a left oblique strain. Washington wouldn't entirely commit Tuesday to Rendon being done for the season, though the manager implied that will be the likely outcome, saying, "We haven't made a total decision on that yet, but we're still working through it. I think you make a common-sense deduction, you can answer that one yourself." If Rendon's season is in fact over, he'll finish with a .218/.307/.267 slash line, no home runs, 14 RBI, 21 runs and six stolen bases over 57 games. Since joining the Angels on a seven-year, $245 million contract in 2020, Rendon hasn't played more than 58 games in any of his five campaigns.
