Andrew Benintendi - Absent from Monday's lineup Benintendi (calf) is not in the lineup for Monday's game in Kansas City.
Impact Benintendi was forced to leave Sunday's affair against the Astros due to left calf tightness, so it's not a surprise he's absent from the lineup a day later. He is considered day-to-day for the time being. Michael Taylor is in left field and batting eighth in the series opener Monday.

Yordan Alvarez - Goes on IL with hand inflammation The Astros placed Alvarez on the 10-day injured list Monday with right hand inflammation, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Impact Alvarez had missed the previous two games with the injury, and while manager Joe Espada had indicated imaging on Alvarez's hand wouldn't be necessary, the team ultimately decided a trip to the IL was the best course of action. The 27-year-old Alvarez dealt with nagging right hand inflammation a couple years ago, but it's not clear whether this current injury is a recurrence of that. Yainer Diaz and/or Zach Dezenzo will likely see increased action at designated hitter while Alvarez is out.

César Salazar - Set for recall The Astros will recall Salazar from Triple-A Sugar Land prior to Monday's game in Milwaukee, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
Impact It's not yet clear what the corresponding move for Salazar will be. The 29-year-old has hit only .197/.305/.310 in his first 21 games this season with Sugar Land.
