Raley is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Orioles.

The Mariners often hold the left-handed-hitting Raley out of the lineup against southpaws, but he'll take a seat Tuesday with right-hander Brandon Young on the bump for Baltimore. Victor Robles will pick up a start in left field in place of Raley, who has gone just 2-for-21 at the dish over his last six games to bring his average down to .241 for the season.

Arozarena (hamstring) isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Orioles, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.

Although Arozarena is set to miss a third straight start due to left hamstring soreness, general manager Justin Hollander said the 31-year-old could be available off the bench Tuesday and is likely to return to the starting nine Wednesday. In the meantime, Victor Robles, Julio Rodriguez and Dominic Canzone will form Seattle's outfield trio.

DeLauter (ribs) isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Brewers.

DeLauter will miss a second start following his collision with the outfield wall during Saturday's contest. Imaging revealed Tuesday that the rookie outfielder suffered bone bruising and a small fracture in his rib cage as a result of his encounter, per Zach Sweet of MLB.com. However, manager Stephen Vogt said that DeLauter could play through it depending on his pain tolerance. Steven Kwan, Stuart Fairchild and David Fry will start across the outfield Tuesday while DeLauter sits.

Varsho (wrist) is beginning to feel better and resumed hitting in the batting cages Wednesday, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports

Just four days after landing on the injured list with left wrist inflammation, Varsho has resumed hitting and is starting to feel better as he gets closer to his potential return. Toronto announced that the 30-year-old will continue to ramp up his activities over the next couple of days as the team evaluates his next steps.

The Guardians recalled Halpin from Triple-A Columbus on Tuesday, reports Cade Cracas of Sports Illustrated.

Halpin will return to the big-league club after recently being demoted two weeks ago on June 2. At the major-league level, the 24-year-old slugged just .167/.194/.200 in 31 plate appearances. Halpin will rejoin the club as the corresponding move to Angel Martinez (foot) being placed on the 10-day injured list.

Martinez (foot) will be placed on the 10-day injured list Tuesday, reports Cade Cracas of Sports Illustrated.

After suffering a left foot bruise, which is now deemed to be a fracture, Saturday and sitting out Sunday's matinee, Martinez will be placed on the 10-day IL. Prior to his injury, Martinez batted .239/.276/.442 with 11 homers and 33 RBI this season. Petey Halpin was recalled from Triple-A Columbus to take Martinez's spot on the active roster.

Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Tuesday that Grisham has been diagnosed with a "moderate" right hamstring strain, Brendan Kuty of The Athletic reports.

Grisham landed on the 10-day injured list over the weekend, and an MRI on Monday revealed the moderate strain. Boone did not offer a specific timetable for Grisham's return, but it wouldn't be a surprise if he's held out through the All-Star break. Spencer Jones and Cody Bellinger will be tasked with holding down center field while Grisham is out.

Anthony (finger) underwent a follow-up MRI on Tuesday that came back clean, but he's not yet cleared to swing a bat, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.

The 22-year-old has attempted to swing a bat a couple times but has felt pain when swinging, so interim manager Chad Tracy said the club is taking it day-by-day with Anthony's progress. The MRI results are an encouraging development, but the young outfielder still has a long way to go before potentially coming off the injured list.

Meyers is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Tigers.

Meyers has now been out of the starting lineup for consecutive games and five times over the Astros' past 12 contests. He's slashing only .220/.277/.339 over 37 contests this season. Brice Matthews will be starting in center field for the second straight day.

Triple-A St. Paul placed Mendez on its 7-day injured list Saturday due to a left shoulder impingement, Theodore Tollefson of ZoneCoverage.com reports.

After opening the season at Double-A Wichita, Mendez earned a promotion to Triple-A in early May and has continued mashing, producing a .321/.431/.468 slash line with four home runs and three stolen bases in 130 plate appearances for St. Paul. Assuming Mendez is able to move past the shoulder issue quickly, he'll have a shot at making his MLB debut at some point in the second half of the season.
