Semien (wrist) out of OAK lineup on Tuesday

Marcus Semien (wrist) is not in the Athletics' starting lineup on Tuesday night against the Orioles.

Semien was lifted from Monday's series opener in Baltimore after irritating the scar tissue in his surgically-repaired right wrist, but the discomfort shouldn't keep him out long. Chad Pinder will start at shortstop and bat seventh Tuesday versus O's right-hander Ubaldo Jimenez.

Syndergaard (lat) to throw BP on Wednesday

Noah Syndergaard (lat) is scheduled to throw batting practice on Wednesday.

It'll be his first time facing live hitters since he suffered a torn lat muscle in late April. Syndergaard appears on track to rejoin the Mets sometime in September, though there's no exact timetable at this point and he figures to be handled with care. New York is 15 games under the .500 mark here on August 22.

Santana (back) not in Indians lineup Tuesday

Carlos Santana (back) is out of the Indians' starting lineup Tuesday night against the Red Sox.

Santana left Monday's series opener after experiencing tightness in his lower back. Consider him day-to-day. Edwin Encarnacion is starting at first base and Jason Kipnis will DH on Tuesday versus Boston right-hander Doug Fister. Jose Ramirez is at second base with Giovanny Urshela playing third.

Michael Conforto says thumb issue is minor

Michael Conforto told reporters Tuesday that his right thumb issue is minor.

It's just some inflammation from his heavy 2017 workload. Conforto won't start Tuesday night against the Diamondbacks, but it sounds like he could be ready to go Wednesday. The 24-year-old outfielder slugged his 27th homer of the year on Monday and boasts a .943 OPS in 2017 games this season. Matt Reynolds will draw a start in his place Tuesday versus Arizona.

Salazar lands on DL with elbow inflammation

Indians placed RHP Danny Salazar on the 10-day disabled list, retroactive to August 21, with right elbow inflammation.

This comes after Salazar was knocked around for six runs on 12 hits over 4 2/3 innings against the Royals on Sunday. It's unclear when he'll be ready to return, but it's obviously a troubling development with just a little over one month remaining in the regular season.

Indians place LHP Miller (knee) back on DL

Indians placed LHP Andrew Miller on the 10-day disabled list with right knee patella tendinitis.

Miller aggravated his knee injury during an appearance against the Red Sox on Monday night. He missed about two weeks last time and could require a longer absence this time around. More should be known in the coming days.

David Wright beginning rehab assignment

David Wright (shoulder) will begin a minor league rehab assignment Tuesday with High-A St. Lucie.

Oh, it's happening. He's set to serve as the designated hitter in his first professional game of the season. Wright has been out all year due to a shoulder impingement, and of course he also has a chronic back condition. It's no sure thing he'll be able to join the Mets down the stretch, but it would at least provide some smiles for Mets fans in what has been a lost year.

Salvador Perez activated from disabled list

Royals activated C Salvador Perez from the 10-day disabled list.

Perez ended up missing a little over two weeks with an intercostal strain. His return should provide a boost to the Royals as they attempt to climb in the AL Wild Card race.

Zack Cozart returns to Reds' lineup Tuesday

Zack Cozart (shin) has returned to the Reds' lineup Tuesday against the Cubs.

Cozart hasn't played since he was hit in the shin area by a pitch during Friday's game. He'll bat second against right-hander John Lackey in his return to action.

White Sox call up Giolito to start on Tuesday

White Sox recalled RHP Lucas Giolito from Triple-A Charlotte.

Giolito was originally scheduled to start in Monday's doubleheader, but he was pushed back to take Reynaldo Lopez's spot in the rotation Tuesday against the Twins. Acquired from the Nationals as part of the Adam Eaton deal, the 23-year-old posted a 4.48 ERA and 134/59 K/BB ratio in 128 2/3 innings over 24 starts in Triple-A this year (though he had been pitching better lately). Giolito's stock has faded somewhat, so he's more of a wait-and-see option in standard mixed fantasy leagues at this time.

Vince Velasquez to have surgery on finger

Vince Velasquez will undergo surgery to repair a vascular issue with his right middle finger.

Phillies manager Pete Mackanin told Meghan Montemurro of the News Journal that the issue has been clogging blood flow to his middle finger. This would explain the numbness he has been experiencing. Velasquez is officially done for the year and his role for 2018 could be up in the air.
