Peters (shoulder) is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Royals.

It's the third straight absence due to a bruised left shoulder for Peters, who sustained the injury on a collision with the outfield wall Friday versus Detroit. Brenton Doyle is picking up another start in center field and is batting seventh against Kansas City lefty Daniel Lynch.

Nimmo (illness) is starting in right field and batting fifth Tuesday against the Mets.

The veteran outfielder was scratched from the lineup Sunday due to a stomach bug but is ready for action after Monday's team off day. It's been a struggle for Nimmo through 17 games in September, as he has a .227/.292/.288 slash line and 30.6 percent strikeout rate.

The Yankees optioned Schuemann to the Florida Complex League on Tuesday.

He's clearing off the active roster in order to make space for the return of Jazz Chisholm (thumb). Schuemann reporting to the Yankees' FCL affiliate allows him to continue working out at the team's spring training complex in case he's needed in the future.

Collins is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's game against the White Sox.

It marks the third time over the last four games that Collins has been out of the lineup, as he could be slipping into a reserve role. Nick Loftin will cover left field for the Royals in Tuesday's series opener.

White underwent Lisfranc surgery on his right foot Tuesday.

White hasn't played in nearly two weeks, and the decision was made to have surgery after consultations. There's no word on how long his rehab will take, but White's season is over and there's a decent chance he's non-tendered this winter.

Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Tuesday that the does not anticipate Judge (calf) being ready for the wild-card series next week, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

Judge was placed on the 10-day injured list this past weekend with a right calf strain that Boone revealed Tuesday was "moderate." The outfielder was given a platelet-poor plasma injection in his calf Monday and will rest for a few days to allow the shot to take effect. Judge will aim to be ready for the ALDS, should the Yankees advance, but nothing is guaranteed. Heliot Ramos will be asked to pick up the slack in right field while Judge is sidelined.

Malgeri went 2-for-4 with a double and a three-run home run in Monday's 9-2 win over the Nationals.

Malgeri recorded both his fourth home run and fourth double of the season in the easy win. The rookie outfielder has been known more for his speed in the early stages of his MLB career, as he's swiped five bases in five attempts through 55 games. Malgeri could profile as an Opening Day fourth outfielder in 2027 due to his decent wheels and ability to provide a little offense when called on, though his fantasy outlook will remain limited unless he seizes a regular starting role.

Bateman was removed from Monday's game against Baltimore due to right hip discomfort, Hazel Mae of Sportsnet reports.

Bateman initially appeared to suffer a knee injury on a diving catch, but the team has since stated that he's dealing with a hip issue. His X-rays returned negative, and he'll be considered day-to-day moving forward, per Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca.

Bateman left Monday's game against the Orioles with an apparent right knee injury, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.

Bateman made a sliding catch in the outfield to end the second inning, but his right knee appeared to get jammed in the outfield grass, and he stayed down after the play. He was eventually able to make his way off the field with the help of the team medical staff and is presumably headed for further evaluation. Bateman can be considered day-to-day until further notice.

Bradfield (hip) has gone 3-for-14 with a home run, three stolen bases and four runs in three games since a brief absence earlier in September due to right adductor tightness.

Bradfield missed two consecutive games a week ago after picking up the adductor injury, but he's managed to appear in three matchups since, signaling a return to health.
