DeLauter was removed from Tuesday's game against the Dodgers with a left foot injury, SI.com reports.

DeLauter fouled a ball off his left foot during the first inning of Tuesday's contest and immediately headed into the Guardians' clubhouse. The team will presumably send the outfielder, already known for a history of injuries, for imaging to determine whether he suffered any structural damage. Should he need to miss any additional time, Angel Martinez and Daniel Schneemann would be candidates to pick up extra reps in the outfield.

Valera (calf) began a rehab assignment at Triple-A Columbus on Tuesday, SI.com reports.

Valera was cleared to begin playing in games toward the end of spring training, and he'll now play a few more rehab contests in the minors before coming off the IL. Once healthy, he will either serve as a reserve outfielder for the big club or be optioned to Triple-A.

Canzone is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Yankees.

The 28-year-old clubbed two solo homers Opening Day but has otherwise begun the season 1-for-7 with a double. Southpaw Max Fried is taking the mound Tuesday for the Yankees, so Canzone will take a seat in favor of Rob Refsnyder as the pair operate in a platoon at designated hitter.

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

Yankees lefty Max Fried is the third southpaw starter the Mariners have faced this season, and Raley has come off the bench in each game. Raley has a four-game hit streak to begin the campaign and has gone 4-for-14 with three homers and six RBI. Victor Robles is starting in right field and batting seventh Tuesday.

Fraley (shoulder) will start in right field and bat cleanup in Tuesday's game versus the Brewers.

Fraley had to be scratched from Sunday's lineup due to right shoulder soreness and then didn't play Monday as the Brewers sent a left-hander to the mound. However, the left-handed-hitting Fraley feels well enough to give it a go Tuesday against right-hander Brandon Woodruff.

Duran is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Astros, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.

Duran went 2-for-5 with an RBI and a stolen base Opening Day but is hitless across the past three games, though he has still worked four walks during the latter stretch. Masataka Yoshida will receive a start at designated hitter and bat third versus Houston ace Hunter Brown.

Pereira is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's game in Miami.

Pereira started each of the first four games of the season in right field, but he will begin Tuesday's contest on the bench. Tristan Peters will cover right field and hit seventh for the White Sox on Tuesday.

Springer went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Monday's loss to Colorado.

His blast to left field off Tomoyuki Sugano in the third inning got Toronto on the board. Springer has left the yard in back-to-back games, and while he's only batting .158 (3-for-19) through four games, all three hits have gone for extra bases.

Kwan went 3-for-5 with a double, a run, an RBI and a stolen base in a 4-2 win over the Dodgers on Monday.

Kwan provided a big spark out of the leadoff spot, notching his third multi-hit game so far this season. The veteran outfielder knocked in the game's first run with a third-inning double and scored Cleveland's final run following a bunt single in the seventh. Kwan is off to a nice start to the campaign, slashing .318/.318/.364 through 22 plate appearances.

Hays went 1-for-5 with a three-run home run Monday against the Marlins.

Hays provided the key blow in a four-run third inning for the White Sox, popping his first home run of the season. While that was a positive, Hays struck out in all four of his other at-bats and now has eight strikeouts across only 15 plate appearances to begin the campaign. Despite those struggles, he's started three of four games in left field while hitting fifth in the order twice and third on Monday.
