August 6, 2025 10:06 AM : Baez is not in the lineup for Wednesday's tilt against the Twins.
Analysis: Baez had been slated for a day off Tuesday before being inserted to the lineup after Gleyber Torres (forearm) was scratched. Instead, Baez will get his breather Wednesday while Zach McKinstry plays shortstop and Matt Vierling handles center field.
