Tony Kemp - Takes seat SundayKemp is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against Cleveland.

ImpactTwo of Kemp, Seth Brown and Stephen Piscotty have typically manned the corner-outfield spots for the Athletics of late, but Mark Canha's return from the injured list will leave only one opening in Oakland's regular outfield moving forward. Kemp and Piscotty will be the odd men out Sunday, as Brown sticks in the lineup in right field as Oakland's No. 9 hitter.

Harold Ramirez - Gets Sunday offRamirez is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics.

ImpactAfter going 2-for-7 while starting the first two games of the second half, Ramirez will cede right-field duties to Daniel Johnson in the series finale. Ramirez still appears fairly secure as Cleveland's top option at the position.

Ernie Clement - Back in reserve roleClement will start at second base and bat ninth Sunday against the Athletics.

ImpactClement picked up five consecutive starts between June 30 and July 4, but he's since moved into a full-time utility role. He'll fill in for a resting Cesar Hernandez on Sunday in what will be Clement's second start in nine games. The lack of consistent playing time makes Clement a tough option to roster, even in AL-only leagues.

Austin Hedges - Shifts into No. 2 roleHedges is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics.

ImpactAfter an extended run as Cleveland's No. 1 catcher, Hedges has transitioned back to the No. 2 role following Roberto Perez's return from the 60-day injured list July 3. Hedges will likely be limited to between one and three starts per week when Perez is healthy.

Cesar Hernandez - Sitting SundayHernandez is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics.

ImpactHernandez will head to the bench for only the third time this season. Ernie Clement will pick up a rare start at the keystone in place of Hernandez, who is off to a .234/.308/.489 start to July.
