Carpenter is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Yankees, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

The left-handed-hitting Carpenter will be on the bench for the second day in a row while the Yankees send another lefty starter (Ryan Weathers) to the bump. Ben Malgeri will fill in for Carpenter in right field once again after going 2-for-3 with a run scored in his MLB debut Tuesday.

The Phillies announced that Garcia underwent successful surgery Wednesday to repair a torn right lat, Lochlahn March of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Garcia will face a 6-to-8-month recovery from surgery, which will keep him out for the remainder of the season but give him a good chance at being cleared ahead of spring training in 2027. The 33-year-old is set to become a free agent this winter after he slashed .195/.270/.329 with seven home runs, three stolen bases, 21 RBI and 21 runs over 67 games during his lone season with Philadelphia.

Mullins is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Royals, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

The left-handed-hitting Mullins will hit the bench for the third time in four games while the Royals send southpaw Noah Cameron to the bump. Jonny DeLuca will fill in for Mullins in center field and bat second.

The Angels recalled Lowe from Triple-A Salt Lake on Wednesday. He'll start in center field and bat eighth in the Angels' series finale with the Orioles.

Lowe opened the season on the strong side of a platoon in left field, but the Angels demoted him to Triple-A on May 22 after he struggled to a .184/.226/.320 slash line with a 29.1 percent strikeout rate over 134 plate appearances. While handling a regular role for Salt Lake over the past month, Lowe has trimmed his strikeout rate to 26.2 percent while producing a 1.014 OPS, though that strong production comes with the caveat that he did his damage in hitter-friendly parks in the Pacific Coast League. He received a call-up to the Angels nonetheless, though Lowe may be in store for only a short-term stay with the big club after everyday center fielder Jose Siri (personal) was placed on the paternity list in a corresponding move.

Adell is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Orioles, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

Manager Kurt Suzuki will give Adell and shortstop Zach Neto breathers for the matinee contest after both players started in every game dating back to June 5. Wade Meckler will shift over from his usual spot in left field to cover right field in Adell's stead.

The Angels placed Siri on the paternity list Wednesday.

Siri will have to miss between one and three games while he's on the paternity list, so he'll be back with the Angels no later than Sunday's series finale versus the Athletics. The Angels called up Josh Lowe from Triple-A Salt Lake in a corresponding move, and he'll take Siri's spot in center field during Wednesday's game against the Orioles. Siri had covered center in each of the Angels' last seven games, going 5-for-22 with a home run, a walk, a stolen base, four RBI and five runs during that stretch.

Interim manager Chad Tracy said Wednesday that Anthony (finger/wrist) hasn't made any substantive progress in his recovery back in Boston since the Red Sox began their road trip last weekend, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports.

Though a recent MRI on a partially torn tendon in his right ring finger showed healing, Anthony is still experiencing some discomfort that has prevented him from initiating a hitting progression. He'll simply have to wait until the pain subsides before he can make any meaningful strides in his recovery, leaving Anthony without a definitive timeline for a return. The young outfielder has been on the shelf since May 7.

Moniak is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Red Sox.

Moniak will sit for the second time in the series following his activation from the injured list Monday, with both of his absences coming against left-handed pitching. While picking up his first start for the Rockies since May 20 in Tuesday's 5-2 loss, Moniak went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts.

Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said Wednesday that Soto (back) is still being evaluated and it's possible the outfielder could need a stint on the injured list, Jorge Castillo of ESPN.com reports.

Soto was forced to depart Tuesday's game versus the Cubs with tightness in the left side of his back, and he is not in the lineup for the first game of Wednesday's doubleheader. A decision on a possible trip to the IL for Soto is expected to be made later Wednesday.

Duran is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rockies, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports.

Duran went 0-for-5 with three strikeouts in Tuesday's 5-2 win, leaving him hitless over his last four starts and bringing his season-long average down to .199, which places him 150th among the majors' 153 qualified hitters. The left-handed-hitting Duran's fortunes were unlikely to take a turn for the better with southpaw Kyle Freeland on the mound Wednesday, so the struggling outfielder will head to the bench after a stretch of 46 consecutive starts. Nate Eaton will take over Duran's spot in left field and will bat leadoff.
