Gimenez went 3-for-5 with a run scored and an RBI in Wednesday's win over the Yankees.

Bumped up to the leadoff spot in the absence of Bo Bichette (knee), Gimenez delivered his second straight multi-hit performance. Since returning from a quad injury in early June, the second baseman is slashing .250/.341/.350 with two homers, a steal, nine runs and 12 RBI in 24 contests, but his lack of activity on the basepaths remains puzzling -- he's 10-for-11 on steal attempts in 2025, after swiping 30 bags in each of the prior two seasons for Cleveland.

Whitcomb went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Wednesday against the Rockies.

Whitcomb was recalled from Triple-A Sugar Land on Tuesday, after Jeremy Pena (rib) was placed on the injured list. Whitcomb was in the lineup Wednesday as the designated hitter while slotting into the eighth spot in the lineup. He took advantage of the opportunity by slugging his first career home run in the second inning. Whitcomb looks to be in a reserve role, but he could continue to get sporadic looks at a combination of shortstop and designated hitter.

Castro went 3-for-4 with a double, a run scored and a stolen base in Wednesday's 2-1 win over the Marlins.

He was also caught stealing, but it was still a productive night for the super-utility player, who was getting the start at second base and batting third. It was Castro's first multi-hit performance since June 15, as he was bothered by a sore wrist in late June, but he's made up for a lack of punch at the plate by getting busier on the basepaths -- half of his six steals on the season have come in the last five games.

Keith went 4-for-6 with two doubles, one RBI and one run scored across both games of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Nationals.

Keith tallied three hits in Game 1 and then added a pinch-hit, RBI double in the sixth inning of Game 2. The 23-year-old is riding a modest five-game hitting streak and has hit safely in nine of his past 11 games overall, with the latter stretch including five extra-base hits, six RBI and seven runs scored. For the season, he's slashing .258/.339/.418 with six home runs, 26 RBI and 36 runs scored across 257 plate appearances.

Semien went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Wednesday's 6-0 victory over the Orioles.

Semien cracked his ninth round tripper of the campaign and also tallied his most RBI since May 30. The veteran middle infielder was batting a mere .173 while slugging just .224 through May 28, but he's bounced back in a big way from that dreadful start. Across his last 131 plate appearances, Semien is slashing .348/.412/.600 with 16 extra-base hits, 22 RBI, 25 runs scored and four stolen bases.

Moore was pulled from Wednesday's game versus Atlanta due to left thumb irritation.

Moore injured his thumb while making a diving play on a grounder in the sixth inning. The severity of the 23-year-old's injury remains unknown, but if he ends up needing to miss any time, Kevin Newman would likely benefit from extra starts at the keystone.

Moore was removed from Wednesday's game against Atlanta due to an apparent wrist injury, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

Moore landed awkwardly on his left hand/wrist while diving for a groundball in the sixth inning and immediately came out of the game. He'll presumably head in for imaging to determine the extent of the damage done, and the Angels should provide more information on his status in the near future.

The Astros selected Short's contract from Triple-A Sugar Land on Wednesday, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

Short has spent the entire season in Triple-A, slashing .211/.356/.402 across 320 plate appearances. He'll now join the big-league roster to replace the injured Luis Guillorme (hamstring), though Short isn't expected to see much playing time. Yordan Alvarez was transferred to the 60-day IL to clear a 40-man spot.

Urias went 0-for-2 before being removed in the bottom of the fourth inning of Wednesday's 6-5 loss to the Rays due to right hamstring soreness, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

Per Gallegos, manager Mark Kotsay said after the game that he doesn't think Urias' hamstring issue is significant enough to warrant a stay on the injured list, but the Athletics will have a better feel for the infielder's status after evaluating him during Thursday's off day. Even if he's able to quickly move past the hamstring injury, Urias' time as an everyday player could soon be over. The Athletics are expected to get second baseman Zack Gelof (ribs) back from the 60-day IL this weekend, and Miguel Andujar (oblique) will begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A Las Vegas on Wednesday and could soon be ready to return from the 10-day IL to reclaim a regular role at third base.

Gelof (ribs) is likely to be activated from the 60-day injured list sometime during this weekend's series versus the Giants, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

Gelof will play nine innings with Triple-A Las Vegas on Wednesday for the second straight day. Assuming he comes out of that game without any issues, he will be set to make his season debut for the Athletics this weekend. Gelof initially landed on the IL back in March due to a fractured hamate bone before a stress reaction in his ribs extended his absence. The 25-year-old has slashed .263/.453/.421 with one home run and three stolen bases in 13 rehab contests. Once activated, Gelof is likely to soak up the bulk of the playing time at second base for the Athletics.
