Outman is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Royals.

Outman has gone 1-for-16 with a double and two walks in his first six games of September and will head to the bench for Sunday's series finale in Kansas City. Austin Martin is starting in left field and batting second against Royals righty Michael Lorenzen.

Larnach is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Royals.

Larnach started the previous six games and will receive a day off after going 9-for-25 (.260 average) with a double, a steal, two RBI and two runs during that span. Edouard Julien is batting seventh as the designated hitter for the series finale in Kansas City.

Varsho is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Yankees.

After starting the last four games, Varsho will head to the bench for the series finale while the Yankees send southpaw Max Fried to the bump. Myles Straw will replace Varsho in center field and bat ninth.

Barger is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Yankees.

After starting the last three contests, Barger will hit the bench while the Yankees send southpaw Max Fried to the hill. Barger is slashing just .230/.278/.351 over 79 plate appearances versus lefties on the season.

Beavers is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Dodgers.

The left-handed-hitting Beavers will head to the bench for the series finale while the Dodgers send southpaw Clayton Kershaw to the hill. Dylan Carlson will step in for Beavers in left field.

Kim will start at second base and bat seventh in Sunday's game against the Orioles.

After being activated from the 10-day injured list Tuesday, Kim came off the bench for the ensuing two contests, but he's now started in three straight games with right-handers on the mound for the opposition. The rookie could end up holding down a strong-side platoon role at the keystone until Tommy Edman (ankle) returns from the IL.

Chourio is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Pirates.

Chourio started the past seven games after being reinstated from the injured list last weekend, and he'll get a breather Sunday after collecting just one hit in his past 18 at-bats. Blake Perkins is manning center field and batting seventh in the series finale for Milwaukee.

Devanney is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Brewers.

Devanney will take a seat for the series finale after he went 2-for-17 with a 1:9 BB:K while starting five of the previous six games. With Devanney on the bench, Jared Triolo will slide over from his usual spot at shortstop and pick up a start at third base.

Frelick is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Pirates.

It's the second absence in the past four contests for Frelick, who has gone 6-for-16 with three walks, a double, a stolen base, an RBI and four runs through his first five games of September. Isaac Collins, Blake Perkins and Jake Bauers are starting in the outfield Sunday for the Brewers.

Davis is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Brewers.

The 25-year-old backstop had started behind the plate in four of the previous six games, but he'll cede catching duties to Joey Bart in the series finale. Davis hasn't provided much to get excited about for fantasy purposes lately, slashing .145/.203/.274 since Aug. 1 with two home runs, one stolen base, seven RBI and six runs in 21 games.
