Butler is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's contest in Atlanta.

Atlanta is sending left-hander Chris Sale to the mound, and this marks the second time in three games versus southpaws this season that the lefty-swinging Butler is out of the lineup. Brent Rooker is getting a start in right field and Shea Langeliers will be the designated hitter for the Athletics.

Kurtz is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game in Atlanta.

Kurtz will receive his first day off of the season after going 1-for-17 with 11 strikeouts through five games. Andy Ibanez will get a start at first base and bat second as the Athletics take on lefty ace Chris Sale at Truist Park.

Seager went 2-for-4 with a walk, a home run and two RBI in Tuesday's 8-5 win over Baltimore.

Seager clubbed his second homer of the season, a solo shot in the ninth inning. The multi-hit effort was the third in five starts for Seager, who is 6-for-18 with four RBI to open the season. The early production is an encouraging sign for the shortstop, who was limited to 102 games in 2025.

Bolton earned the save in Tuesday's 9-2 win over the Red Sox, allowing a run on three hits and a walk over three innings. He struck out five.

Making his first appearance with the Astros, Bolton earned his first career save, pitching the final three innings in Tuesday's decisive victory. The 27-year-old right-hander made Houston's Opening Day bullpen with numerous pitchers starting the year on the injured list. Bolton has a career ERA of 5.60 with a 1.78 WHIP over 45 innings across four seasons.

Duran started at third base and went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 8-5 win over the Orioles.

Duran put the Rangers up early with a solo shot in the third inning. He filled in for the struggling Josh Jung, who is 0-for-17 to start the season. The versatile Duran has started twice this season -- the other start coming at second base -- and contributed an extra-base hit and RBI in each contest.

Crawford (shoulder) went 0-for-4 with a walk in his first rehab game with Triple-A Tacoma on Tuesday.

Crawford played all nine innings at shortstop in his first game action in three weeks. The veteran infielder's rehab assignment happened to kick off on the same day the Mariners announced a contract extension with top shortstop prospect Colt Emerson, who played third base for the Rainiers next to Crawford on Tuesday. Emerson is expected to remain at Tacoma for now and Crawford could be activated at any time, but the former could eventually push aside the latter when he's ready to take over at shortstop with the big club.

Grissom (wrist) went 1-for-3 with a single in his first rehab game with Triple-A Salt Lake on Tuesday.

Grissom was declared ready for game action as he works his way back from a sprained left wrist. The infielder is eligible for activation from the 10-day injured list and could be ready to go Friday when the Angels open up their first homestand of the season. Once activated, Grissom will be in the mix for playing time at second and third base for the Halos.

Gaddis (forearm) allowed one hit and struck out one over a scoreless inning for Triple-A Columbus on Tuesday.

Gaddis, who began a rehab assignment March 28, made his second appearance while with the Clippers. Cleveland manager Stephen Vogt told MLB.com that Gaddis needs to be built up to the point where the right-hander can reduce the time off between outings.

Fedde (0-1) took the loss Tuesday, giving up four runs (three earned) on six hits and a walk over five innings as the White Sox fell 9-2 to Miami. He struck out four.

The veteran right-hander tossed 50 of 80 pitches for strikes and held the Marlins off the board for three innings before things fell apart for him in the fourth. Fedde is hoping to recapture the form he showed in 2024 in his return to the White Sox, but about the only bright spot in Tuesday's performance is that he kept the ball in the yard after serving up 19 homers in 141 innings last season while bouncing between St. Louis, Atlanta and Milwaukee. Fedde is set to make his next start at home early next week against the Orioles.

Anthony went 0-for-4 with four strikeouts in Tuesday's 9-2 loss to Houston.

After collecting three singles Opening Day, Anthony's bat has gone silent. Over four subsequent contests, he's gone 1-for-17 with a whopping 10 strikeouts. He's hardly the lone member of the team struggling, but Anthony carries a high profile as Boston's leadoff hitter who signed an eight-year contract extension in August of 2025. The top four spots in the Red Sox's order are batting a combined .156 through five games.
