Vivas has been summoned to join New York’s active roster in a bench role with DJ LeMahieu being jettisoned a couple days after losing his starting job at second base. The 24-year-old infielder got into 22 games earlier this season in the big leagues, batting .156 (7-for-45) with one homer and four RBI during that span. He’s unlikely to garner enough playing time to make an impact for fantasy purposes.

The move doesn’t come as a total surprise since LeMahieu didn’t exactly have a role for New York after the club finally made the decision earlier this week to bench him in favor of Jazz Chisholm Jr. at second base. They’ll eat the roughly $22 million left on his original six-year contract that runs through the 2026 campaign. The 36-year-old doesn’t offer much defensive versatility at this advanced stage of his career and was hitting just .266/.338/.336 with two homers and 12 RBI across 142 plate appearances this season. It’ll be rookie Jorbit Vivas coming up to take his spot on the Yankees bench.

The Yankees needed to make room on the 40-man roster for Cam Schlittler to make his debut on Wednesday, so Hartlieb was designated for assignment. He will likely clear waivers and return to the Yankees’ minor league system.

Thomas returns to center field and will bat ninth in this one after being scratched from Tuesday’s lineup with right knee soreness. The fact he’s already back in the outfield seems to suggest that the issue isn’t a massive concern heading into the All-Star break.

Meyers is back patrolling center field and batting second on Wednesday night at Daikin Park following a two-game absence due to right calf tightness. It doesn’t sound like a massive concern, especially with the extended All-Star break coming up in a few days.

The Guardians hit Astros’ ace Hunter Brown hard in this one, storming out to a 6-1 advantage through their first four innings. They gave that lead away though by the ninth and went to extra innings with the score tied at 6-6. That’s where Martinez victimized Astros’ closer Josh Hader for his 334-foot go-ahead blast that put the Guardians on top to stay. Martinez finished the night 1-for-4 plus a walk and is now hitting .238/.264/.371 with six homers and 30 RBI on the season.
