Gelof (wrist) is expected to begin a rehab assignment early next week, Jason Burke of SI.com reports.

Gelof has yet to play this season but has resumed taking batting practice and running the bases this week. He will report directly to Triple-A Las Vegas and is expected to get at least 35 at-bats, meaning a mid-May return remains realistic.

Sosa went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Thursday's 3-0 win over the Twins.

Sosa got the White Sox on the board in the second inning, when he took the first pitch of the at-bat from Chris Paddack deep to left-center field for a solo homer. It was Sosa's second home run of the season (the first of which took place on Opening Day), and he's recorded at least one hit in nine of his last 10 games, going 12-for-36 (.333) over that span.

The Rays recalled Montes from Triple-A Durham on Thursday, Ryan Bass of FanDuel Sports Network Sun reports.

The 28-year-old was sent back to Triple-A last Thursday but will now return after a week in the minors to give the Rays some bench depth following Jake Mangum's (groin) move to the IL. Montes owns a .489 OPS through 51 plate appearances at Durham this season, so he shouldn't be expected to contribute much while with the big club.

Holliday is not in the lineup for Thursday's contest against the Nationals, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

It's tough lefty MacKenzie Gore on the bump for the Nationals, so the lefty-swinging Holliday will begin the festivities on the bench. Jorge Mateo is covering second base and will bat ninth for the Orioles.

Rivas went 2-for-3 with two walks and two runs in Wednesday's 8-5 win over the Red Sox.

Since being recalled from Triple-A Tacoma on April 9, Rivas has started at second base in five of the Mariners' ensuing 12 games. Three of those five starts have come against left-handed starting pitchers, and the switch-hitting Rivas will remain in the lineup at the keystone again Thursday while the Red Sox send southpaw Garrett Crochet to the hill. Rivas will likely continue to occupy the short side of a platoon at second base with the right-handed-hitting Dylan Moore, who typically plays elsewhere around the diamond or in the outfield when the Mariners face lefties.

The Twins placed Castro on the 10-day injured list Thursday with a right oblique strain.

Castro hasn't played in more than a week and the Twins have finally relented and placed the super-utility player on the IL. According to Dan Hayes of The Athletic, the switch-hitting Castro has been diagnosed with a Grade 1 strain. While Castro can hit pain-free from the right side, he isn't able to swing left-handed without feeling tightness. He's eligible for activation May 1, and he sounds like he'll have a shot to return at that time.

Baldwin is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Twins.

The White Sox haven't committed to using Baldwin at any one position, but his status as a switch hitter and his ability to play all three outfield spots and three infield spots should allow him to hold down a near-everyday role. He'll hit the bench for the series finale, however, opening up a start for Michael Taylor in center field.

Castro (oblique) is not in the lineup for Thursday's game versus the White Sox.

It marks six straight games Castro has been absent from the lineup due to a right oblique injury. The Twins are going with Brooks Lee at third base and Edouard Julien at second base Thursday.

Gimenez went 1-for-3 with a stolen base in Wednesday's 3-1 loss to Houston.

Gimenez got on base in the second inning with a single to center field, and he showed off his speed when he stole second base later in the frame. It was his eighth steal of the season, which is tied with Jake Mangum (groin) for most in the American League and fourth in the majors. Gimenez is slashing .198/.282/.341 with eight walks, 14 runs scored, three home runs and eight RBI in 103 plate appearances this season.

The Yankees optioned Vivas to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre following Wednesday's 5-1 win over the Guardians.

Vivas was added the Yankees' 26-man roster Monday to take the spot vacated by Trent Grisham (paternity). Vivas didn't appear in any of the Yankees' three games against the Guardians and will return to Triple-A, where he's slashing .342/.432/.493 with four stolen bases, 12 runs scored, two home runs and 14 RBI in 88 plate appearances.
