Peraza is out of the lineup for Monday's game in Boston.

Following a stretch of six straight starts, Peraza has now been out of the lineup for three consecutive tilts. Vaughn Grissom is covering third base, and Moises Ballesteros will be at first base for the Angels on Monday.

Sogard is not in the lineup for Monday's contest versus the Angels.

Sogard will receive a day of rest after starting each of the last 36 games. Isiah Kiner-Falefa will slot in at second base for the Red Sox in Monday's series opener.

Foscue started at second base and went 1-for-4 with a double and two RBI in Sunday's 8-6 win over Tampa Bay.

Per usual, Foscue was in the lineup against a left-handed starter, and he delivered a game-tying double in the fourth inning to erase the Rays' early lead. He's hit safely in five straight games, going 5-for-14 with two doubles, one home run and five RBI during that streak. When not starting, he's often a mid-game replacement when opponents bring in a lefty reliever.

Bazzana went 2-for-4 with a double, an RBI and was caught stealing in Sunday's 3-2 extra-inning win over the Tigers.

Bazzana hit the second of back-to-back doubles in the first inning to knock in the Guardians' first run. He later singled in the eighth inning to give him a third straight two-hit game. Bazzana is 6-for-15 with two doubles, a home run and five RBI in six September contests.

Young is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics.

Young had started each of the Mariners' last nine games, but after producing a poor .188/.333/.250 slash line during that stretch, he'll hit the bench Sunday. The Mariners called up one of their top prospects in Michael Arroyo from Triple-A Tacoma on Sunday, and he'll immediately enter the lineup in place of Young, starting at second base against left-hander Gage Jump. The right-handed-hitting Arroyo could end up settling into a platoon at the keystone with Young, who is batting .218/.278/.294 (69 wRC+) over 187 plate appearances versus lefties.

Massey is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Blue Jays.

The Royals will give Massey a break while Nick Loftin fills in for him at second base. Massey had started in each of the Royals' last four games, going 5-for-14 with a double, a walk, a stolen base and an RBI following his return from the 7-day concussion injured list.

The Mariners selected Arroyo's contract from Triple-A Tacoma, and he'll start at second base and bat eighth Sunday against the Athletics.

The 21-year-old has made the transition to left field this season but has continued to see action at second base for Tacoma, and the latter position is where he'll make his MLB debut. Arroyo, who is one of Seattle's top prospects, opened the campaign with Double-A Arkansas before being promoted to Triple-A in early July. He's posted an .830 OPS with 18 home runs and 17 steals in 114 games between the two levels.

Torres is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Guardians.

Torres started in each of the Tigers' last three games and went 6-for-14 with six runs scored in those contests, but he'll retreat to the bench for the series finale. The veteran infielder is likely to handle more of a part-time role over the final few weeks of the season while the Tigers open up more playing time for rookies Hao-Yu Lee and John Peck.

Palacios isn't in the Rays' starting lineup versus Texas on Sunday, Ryan Bass of Rays.tv reports.

Palacios has been flashing his power lately, hitting three homers over his past four games. However, he'll spend at least part of Sunday on the bench with the Rangers sending lefty MacKenzie Gore to the mound. Ryan Vilade is filling in for Palacios at second base in the series finale.

Frazier will start in left field and bat eighth in Sunday's game against the Pirates.

Frazier will stick in the lineup for a third straight game, this time covering an outfield spot after going 1-for-6 with a double and a run scored between the first two contests of the series while making starts at designated hitter and second base. The veteran utility man could have a path to fairly steady playing time in the short term, though Frazier could find himself as an odd man out of the lineup once Nolan Schanuel (intercostal) returns from the injured list.
