The Angels recalled Kingery from Triple-A Salt Lake on Saturday.

The Angels are down a utility man with Chris Taylor (hand) on the injured list for the second time in two months, so Kingery will come up from Triple-A to fill the opening. The 31-year-old has slashed .255/.311/.386 across 167 plate appearances at Salt Lake this year and is expected to come off the bench most days.

The Orioles optioned Jackson to Triple-A Norfolk on Saturday.

Jackson will end up back in the minors after spending just 24 hours with the big-league club. The 25-year-old will keep his spot on the 40-man roster, however, and he could return to Baltimore later in the year if he continues to hit the ball well at Norfolk. Yaramil Hiraldo was recalled from Triple-A in a corresponding move.

The Rays designated Montes for assignment Saturday.

Montes never appeared in a game after being recalled from Triple-A on Wednesday, and he'll now be replaced on the active and 40-man rosters by the newly acquired Tristan Gray. Montes owns a .616 OPS through 272 plate appearances in Triple-A this season, though his defensive versatility could offer at least some appeal to teams browsing the waiver wire.

The Yankees optioned Vivas to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Friday.

Vivas' most recent call-up came July 9 after DJ LeMahieu was DFA'd. Vivas had been trading off starts at third base with Oswald Peraza since, but the Yankees found a full-time starter at the hot corner Friday when they traded with Colorado for Ryan McMahon. In Vivas' most recent stint with the Yankees, he went 2-for-10 with an RBI over six games.

Moore (thumb) has started baseball activities, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

Moore was called up by the Angels from Triple-A Salt Lake in mid-June and played in 18 games for the big club before landing on the IL in early July due to a left thumb sprain. His return to baseball activities is an encouraging sign, and the 23-year-old will look to progress enough in his recovery to swing a bat.

The Orioles selected the contract of Jackson from Triple-A Norfolk on Friday, Rich Dubroff of BaltimoreBaseball.com reports.

Jackson takes the spot on the MLB roster vacated by Gregory Soto after he was traded to the Mets earlier Friday. Jackson started the season in Double-A but was promoted to Triple-A last month. He's slashed .377/.398/.682 with 11 home runs, 22 RBI, 28 runs scored and eight stolen bases since the promotion. Jackson is still waiting to make his MLB debut.

The Guardians optioned Wilson to Triple-A Columbus on Friday.

With Gabriel Arias (ankle) back from the 10-day IL, Wilson will head back to the minors. Wilson owns a .167/.250/.222 slash line with four doubles, one RBI, six runs scored, one stolen base and a 7:34 BB:K across 85 plate appearances at the big-league level this season.

The Red Sox recalled Hamilton from Triple-A Worcester on Friday.

The 27-year-old has been at Worcester for the past couple weeks but will rejoin Boston as Marcelo Mayer (wrist) heads to the injured list. Hamilton has a .505 OPS in 62 MLB games this season and is likely to serve as a reserve infielder while up with the big club.

Gimenez (ankle) began a running progression Thursday, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Gimenez has been on the injured list with a sprained left ankle since early July but remains without a defined return timeline. However, it's worth noting that manager John Schneider said that Gimenez's first day of running went "better than expected," which keeps the door open for the infielder to return to action in the near future.

Dubon went 1-for-3 with an RBI and a walk Wednesday against the Diamondbacks.

Dubon delivered an RBI single in the eighth inning and now has a hit in five of six games since the All-Star break. That hasn't come with much production in counting stats -- he has only one RBI and one run scored in that span -- but he is getting consistent playing time at either shortstop or third base.
