The Mariners optioned Padlo to Triple-A Tacoma following Saturday's game against the Diamondbacks.

The infielder did not appear in a game after being recalled from Tacoma on Thursday. Padlo loses his active roster spot now that Tyler Anderson (bereavement) is active and with the team.

Vaughn (leg) is not starting Sunday's game against the Red Sox.

The rookie should still be considered day-to-day as he works through leg soreness. Manager Tony La Russa figures to be especially cautious with Vaughn as he's been with other key players on the division-leading White Sox, so a trip to the injured list is not out of the question. Jose Abreu is DH'ing Sunday with Yasmani Grandal filling in at first base.

Tellez was placed on the 10-day injured list with a strained right patella Sunday.

Tellez left Saturday's game in Cleveland with what was originally called right knee discomfort. As it turns out, the injury is serious enough to shut him down for at least 10 days, though whether or not he'll miss more time beyond that point is not yet clear. Luke Maile was called up to take his place on the roster.

Cron will sit Sunday against the Phillies.

Cron has hit an excellent .344/.416/.718 with 13 homers in 37 games since the start of August. He'll get a rest Sunday as Colton Welker takes over at first base.

Guerrero went 3-for-8 with a solo home run and three runs scored across both games of Saturday's doubleheader versus Baltimore.

The 22-year-old provided a solo shot in an 11-10 win in Game 1, then added a pair of singles and runs in Toronto's monumental 11-run seventh inning in Game 2. Guerrero has gone yard four times in his last seven contests, and he's up to 43 home runs on the year. He's added a stellar .319/.407/.606 slash line with 101 RBI, 110 runs scored and four stolen bases across 612 plate appearances.

Tellez will undergo an MRI on his right knee Sunday to determine the severity of his injury, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Tellez was removed from Saturday's game against Cleveland in the second inning and was initially diagnosed with right knee discomfort. However, the Brewers will likely have a better idea of the severity of the issue following Sunday's tests.

Olson went 1-for-4 with a solo homer in Saturday's 8-6 loss to the Rangers.

Olson smacked his 33rd homer of the season off Texas starter Wes Benjamin in the third inning. The slugger is now three long balls shy of matching his career high of 36 that he set in 2019. This particular home run breathes new life into Olson's push for the mark, as it's the 27-year-old's first round tripper since Aug. 23.

Mountcastle isn't in the lineup for the second game of Saturday's doubleheader against the Orioles.

Mountcastle will get a breather after he went 1-for-5 with a solo home run and two strikeouts in Saturday's matinee. Trey Mancini will start at first base while DJ Stewart enters the lineup in right field.

Tellez exited Saturday's game against Cleveland in the second inning due to right knee discomfort.

Tellez went 1-for-1 with a double and an RBI to begin Saturday's contest, but he was replaced defensively in the bottom of the second frame. It's not yet clear whether the injury will force him to miss additional time.

Vaughn is dealing with leg soreness and is not in Saturday's lineup against the Red Sox, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.

Eloy Jimenez will start at designated hitter while Romy Gonzalez starts in left field. This is the second straight game Vaughn will miss due to the soreness.
