The Giants placed Schmitt on the 10-day injured list Tuesday with a left knee meniscus tear.

Angel Martinez LF | CLE
Guardians' Angel Martinez: On bench for nightcap
Martinez isn't in the lineup for the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Reds.
After going 0-for-4 with a pair of strikeouts to start the day, Martinez will move to the bench to begin the second half of Tuesday's festivities. His absence will put Chase DeLauter in right field and Jose Ramirez at DH, allowing Gabriel Arias to start at third base.

Mariners' Luke Raley: Sitting vs lefty
Raley is not in the lineup Tuesday versus the Dodgers.

Jung Hoo Lee RF | SF
Giants' Jung Hoo Lee: Back in action Tuesday
Lee (elbow) will start in right field and bat fifth Tuesday against the Brewers, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Lee sat out the Giants' last two games due to elbow soreness, but he'll return to the lineup now that the issue appears to have subsided. The 27-year-old outfielder has slashed .300/.364/.500 with a homer, four RBI and five runs scored across eight games since the All-Star break.

Emmanuel Rodriguez LF | MIN
Twins' Emmanuel Rodriguez: Cleared for rehab assignment
Rodriguez (thumb) will begin a rehab assignment with Low-A Fort Myers on Tuesday, Theodore Tollefson of ZoneCoverage.com reports.
Rodriguez has finally been cleared to play in games following surgery in late May to repair the UCL in his left thumb. The 23-year-old has been highly productive for Triple-A St. Paul this season when on the field, slashing .247/.417/.506 with six long balls in 25 games. Rodriguez could push to debut before the end of the 2026 campaign if he's able to stay healthy, but that's a big "if," given his track record.

Kerry Carpenter RF | DET
Tigers' Kerry Carpenter: Receives cortisone injection
Carpenter (foot) received a cortisone injection Tuesday, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.
The 28-year-old landed on the injured list Monday with left foot plantar fasciitis and didn't waste much time before getting treatment. Plantar fasciitis often carries a lengthy recovery timeline, but it's possible Carpenter's situation is more of an issue of pain tolerance, at least in the short term.

Esmerlyn Valdez RF | PIT
Pirates' Esmerlyn Valdez: Good to go Tuesday
Valdez (hand) will be in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Diamondbacks, Jason Mackey of MLB.com reports.
Valdez exited Monday's series opener after being struck on the left hand by a pitch, but he won't end up missing a start after he underwent medical testing and was diagnosed with a bruise. The 22-year-old is in a bit of a slump, having gone 3-for-16 with six walks and eight strikeouts over his past six games, but he's been a force at the plate overall in July with a 1.043 OPS through 21 contests.
