Clement (hip) had been slated to start at shortstop and bat sixth Sunday against the Cubs before the game was postponed due to inclement weather in Chicago.

Clement was held out of the starting nine the previous two games due to left hip soreness, but the injury doesn't look as though it will be a concern for the infielder heading into a seven-game week. Clement made an appearance off the bench in Saturday's 8-6 win, playing three innings at shortstop while going 0-for-2.

Seigler started at second base and went 1-for-4 with a run scored in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Mariners.

Seigler, who had been traveling with the team for its six-game road trip, was officially recalled from Triple-A Worcester earlier in the day and added to the starting lineup. He should be part of the mix at second base along with Andruw Monasterio while Isiah Kiner-Falefa (forearm) is on the 10-day injured list.

Lee is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the White Sox.

Lee will retreat to the bench for the series finale after he went 3-for-13 with a double, an RBI and a run while starting at second base over the past four games. The Tigers will go with Zach McKinstry at the keystone Sunday, but McKinstry can be moved around to other spots on the diamond or in the corner outfield if manager A.J. Hinch is keen on keeping Lee in the lineup on a regular basis while Gleyber Torres (oblique) is on the shelf.

Gonzalez (shoulder) was removed from Double-A Portland's game Saturday after four innings with soreness in his left hip flexor, Josh Kirshenbaum of MLB.com reports.

Gonzalez, who is rehabbing from a left shoulder arthroscopic debridement procedure in early March, was pulled from his rehab assignment and sent back to Boston for testing. He'll remain in Boston over the weekend and be reevaluated Monday. Red Sox interim manager Chad Tracy believes it's not a major issue, and the team is optimistic that the infielder could be activated at some point during a seven-game homestand that begins Thursday.

Orioles manager Craig Albernaz said that Holliday was removed in the bottom of the eighth inning of Saturday's 3-2 win over the Dodgers due to groin tightness, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports. Holliday went 0-for-3 with two strikeouts prior to his departure.

Albernaz said that he pulled Holliday from the game because he didn't want the groin issue to worsen, but the skipper didn't provide a firm indication whether he expects the infielder to miss additional time. Jeremiah Jackson came off the bench to replace Holliday in the field Saturday, and Jackson and Blaze Alexander would represent the main candidates to pick up playing time at the keystone if Holliday requires a stint on the IL.

Keaschall went 3-for-6 with three runs scored in Saturday's 16-8 win over the Diamondbacks.

Keaschall was limited to singles in this contest, but he was one of four Twins to log at least three hits. The second baseman has gone 14-for-38 (.368) over his last 11 contests, though just three of those hits have gone for extra bases. On the year, he's batting .259 with a .677 OPS, two home runs, 24 RBI, 38 runs scored, 12 doubles, one triple and 11 stolen bases over 72 contests.

Bazzana went 4-for-4 with two home runs, three total runs and five total RBI in an 8-1 win against the Astros on Saturday.

Bazzana didn't take long to set the tone for his big performance, belting the first pitch of the game from Spencer Arrighetti over the outfield wall for a home run. The talented rookie added a three-run blast in the fifth inning to notch the first multi-homer game of his career. Bazzana also logged four hits for the first time as a big leaguer and racked up a career-best five RBI. He had been batting just .182 through 15 games in June entering Saturday, but Bazzana has nonetheless had a strong beginning to his major-league career, slashing .274/.369/.476 with seven homers, 11 doubles, 23 RBI, 22 runs and 11 stolen bases through 46 contests.

The Red Sox recalled Seigler from Triple-A Worcester on Saturday.

With Isiah Kiner-Falefa on the injured list due to forearm inflammation, Seigler will rejoin the big club to help bolster Boston's infield depth. The 27-year-old has spent the vast majority of the season at Triple-A, slashing .289/.405/.437 with three homers, 23 RBI and 18 runs scored through 163 plate appearances. He could make an occasional start while the Red Sox are without Kiner-Falefa and Nick Sogard (oblique), though Andruw Monasterio is likely the frontrunner for regular playing time.

The Blue Jays acquired Urias from the Diamondbacks on Saturday in exchange for cash considerations, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Urias, an eight-year MLB veteran, has played well this season at the Triple-A level in the Pacific Coast League (.939 OPS in 27 games) and is expected to join Toronto's major-league squad after exercising an upward mobility clause in his contract. Zwelling notes Urias' low chase rates throughout his time in the majors made him an appealing target for the Blue Jays, and the 29-year-old will now receive another big-league opportunity in his new organization.

The Red Sox placed Kiner-Falefa on the 10-day injured list Saturday, retroactive to Friday, with left forearm inflammation, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports.

Kiner-Falefa was a late scratch from the lineup before Friday's game, and his forearm will now force him to remain sidelined until at least June 29. Andruw Monasterio is a likely candidate to pick up extra starts in the infield while Kiner-Falefa is out, and Anthony Seigler will come up from Triple-A Worcester to add to Boston's infield depth.
