  • Jared Triolo 3B | PIT

    Pirates' Jared Triolo: Making third straight start

    Triolo will start at third base and bat ninth in Sunday's game against the Rockies.

    Since the Pirates traded Ke'Bryan Hayes to the Reds on Wednesday, Triolo appears to have temporarily settled in as the preferred option at third base. He'll pick up a third straight start after going 1-for-7 with two walks, two runs and one RBI through the first two games of the series in Colorado.

  • Coby Mayo 3B | BAL

    Orioles' Coby Mayo: Picking up third straight start

    Mayo will start at first base and bat eighth in Sunday's game against the Cubs.

    Mayo has been one of the main beneficiaries in the wake of the Orioles' active trade deadline, during which Baltimore shipped out Ryan O'Hearn, Cedric Mullins and Ramon Laureano. The rookie will make a third straight start at first base Sunday, and he could retain a regular spot in the lineup even if Ryan Mountcastle (hamstring) returns from the 60-day injured list during the upcoming week. The Orioles could install Mountcastle as their everyday designated hitter, which would keep first base open for Mayo, who is slashing .241/.389/.517 with two home runs and a 6:6 BB:K since the All-Star break.

  • Curtis Mead 3B | CHW

    White Sox's Curtis Mead: Up with White Sox

    The White Sox recalled Mead from Triple-A Charlotte on Sunday.

    The 24-year-old was acquired by Chicago from Tampa Bay in the Adrian Houser trade Thursday and won't have to wait long to make his White Sox debut after Miguel Vargas (oblique) landed on the injured list. Mead should help fill in for Vargas at first base but could also see action at second and third base.

  • Yankees' Paul Goldschmidt: Hitting bench Sunday

    Goldschmidt is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins.

    Ben Rice will get the nod at first base Sunday, but Goldschmidt had occupied the position in five of the past six matchups -- all against right-handed pitchers. Though Rice has been far more productive against righties among the two players this season, Goldschmidt's longer track record of success in the big leagues has at least temporarily prevented him from falling into a pure short-side platoon role. Goldschmidt is slashing just .200/.256/.250 with a 37.2 percent strikeout rate since the All-Star break, however, and it's unclear how much patience manager Aaron Boone will exercise with the 37-year-old if he continues to languish.

  • Carlos Santana 1B | CHC

    Guardians' Carlos Santana: Receiving Sunday off

    Santana is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Twins.

    Santana appears to be getting a well-earned rest for a day game. Kyle Manzardo will start at first base and C.J. Kayfus will serve as Cleveland's designated hitter.

  • Michael Toglia 1B | COL

    Rockies' Michael Toglia: Sent to Triple-A

    The Rockies optioned Toglia to Triple-A Albuquerque on Sunday.

    The 26-year-old recently fell into more of a part-time role and has now lost his place on the major-league roster. Toglia has played in 85 games for the Rockies this season and has a .194/.261/.361 slash line and 38.3 percent strikeout rate over 329 plate appearances.

  • Ty France 1B | TOR

    Blue Jays' Ty France: Exiting starting nine Sunday

    France is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Royals.

    After being acquired from the Twins on Thursday, France picked up starts at designated hitter and first base in the first two games of the Blue Jays' series with the Royals, going 1-for-8 at the plate. Though he'll hit the bench Sunday while Nathan Lukes gets a day off from playing the outfield and serves as Toronto's DH, France should have a fairly clear path to regular at-bats until the Blue Jays get one or two of George Springer (concussion), Andres Gimenez (ankle) and Anthony Santander (shoulder) back from the injured list.

  • Nate Lowe 1B | BOS

    Nationals' Nathaniel Lowe: Receiving rest Sunday

    Lowe is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Brewers, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

    Lowe appears to be getting a rare rest day Sunday after starting in each of the Nationals' last 38 games dating back to June 17. Josh Bell will cover first base, and James Wood will get a day out of the outfield as the designated hitter.

  • Ryan Noda 1B | BAL

    Orioles' Ryan Noda: Up in big leagues

    The Orioles recalled Noda from Triple-A Norfolk on Sunday, Danielle Allentuck of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.

    The 29-year-old was optioned to Norfolk after being claimed off waivers from the White Sox on Saturday, but Baltimore didn't wait long before adding him to the 26-man active roster. Noda appeared in 16 games for the White Sox earlier this season and went 3-for-34 with a 42.2 percent strikeout rate. He's played at the Triple-A level with three different organizations in 2025 and has a .194/.390/.366 slash line in 236 plate appearances.

  • Rockies' Warming Bernabel: Another multi-hit game

    Bernabel went 3-for-4 with two doubles and a run in Saturday's 8-5 win over the Pirates.

    His sixth-inning double was enough to chase Paul Skenes from the game, and Bernabel was brought home two batters later on a Brenton Doyle single. The 23-year-old is off to a fantastic start to his major-league career, going 14-for-28 (.500) with four doubles, one triple, five runs, three home runs and seven RBI in seven games.
