Isaac Paredes has been dropped to fifth in the lineup for Saturday’s game against the Brewers.

Paredes has been struggling of late, hitting .164 (9-for-55) with three homers and five RBI over his last 15 games. Astros manager Joe Espada has opted to move him down in the order after mostly hitting second in recent weeks. It’ll be red-hot sluggers Yordan Alvarez and Christian Walker moving up to second and third in the order to pick up a few additional at-bats with Taylor Trammell moving into the cleanup spot.

Shane Baz

BAL Starting Pitcher #34

Shane Baz had his final start against the Yankees rained out on Sunday.

Baz will still get to finish on a rather positive note, as he turned in a quality start last time out against the Jays and went without adding to his total of 15 losses in his final three outings. He’ll finish tied with Tanner Bibee and Brady Singer for the MLB lead in losses, though his 4.11 ERA and 154/63 K/BB ratio in 179 2/3 innings aren’t so bad.

Gabriel Moreno (hamstring) was scratched from the Diamondbacks’ starting lineup on Sunday due to lingering hamstring discomfort.

The 26-year-old backstop may still be available to pinch hit. Jordan Lawlar will start in his place, with Tim Tawa shifting to first base and Pavin Smith functioning as the Diamondbacks’ designated hitter in a must-win game against the Padres on Sunday afternoon.

Astros optioned RHP Ronel Blanco to Triple-A Sugar Land.

The Astros wanted to add an extra position player to their bench for Sunday’s regular season finale so Blanco heads back to Triple-A for the time being. He would likely return for the Wild Card Series if the Astros wind up besting the Rangers for the title in the American League West.

Kevin Gausman (shoulder) threw a bullpen session on Sunday without any issues.

While Gausman was encouraged by how he felt, he won’t know for sure if he’ll be available for the Wild Card Series until seeing how his body responds on Monday. If he’s declared ready to go, he would get the ball in either Game 1 or 2 for the Cubs.

Yankees’ manager Aaron Boone announced Sunday that Cam Schlittler will start Game 1 of the Wild Card Series against the Red Sox.

That means that Max Fried will pitch for the Yankees in Game 2 while Gerrit Cole would be waiting in the wings for Game 3 if necessary. Schlittler is certainly deserving of the honor as he posted a brilliant 1.95 ERA, 0.92 WHIP and 239 strikeouts over 193 2/3 innings over 33 starts during the regular season and is the favorite to take home Cy Young award honors in the American League.
