Chavis was recalled by the Red Sox on Monday, Bill Koch of The Providence Journal reports.

Chavis was sent to Triple-A Worcester in late May, but he'll return to the Red Sox after spending three weeks with the minor-league club. During his stint at the Triple-A level, he hit .275 with three home runs, 13 runs and 12 RBI in 17 games. Ryan Weber was designated for assignment in a corresponding move.

Biggio went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, a double, two runs and a walk in Sunday's 18-4 win over the Red Sox.

Biggio has recorded hits in each of his three games since he returned from the injured list, and he's blasted four extra-base hits across the last two games. The 26-year-old is now slashing .230/.337/.388 with five home runs, 17 runs and 13 RBI this season.

Semien went 2-for-4 with a home run, two RBI and two runs in Sunday's 18-4 win over the Red Sox.

Semien has now recorded hits in each of the last six games, and he's homered in back-to-back contests. He's now slashing .294/.359/.530 with 15 home runs, 44 runs, 37 RBI and eight stolen bases in 2021.

Wong is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Diamondbacks.

Wong replaced Juan Lagares in the lineup for games Wednesday and Friday, but the former will remain on the bench for the second straight contest Sunday while Lagares joins Taylor Ward and Justin Upton in the outfield. Since being called up from Triple-A Salt Lake on May 29, Wong is hitting .179 and getting on base at a .207 clip. He'll likely fill a utility role for Los Angeles for the foreseeable future.

Mayfield was claimed off waivers by the Angels on Sunday and assigned to Triple-A Salt Lake.

Mayfield began the season with the Angels, going hitless in three April at-bats before being DFA'd on April 24. He wound up being claimed by Seattle but was DFA'd again June 10 after going 6-for-34 with three RBI across 12 games with the big club. He'll now return to the Angels' farm system, where he'll provide infield depth at Salt Lake for the time being.

Manager Rocco Baldelli said that Arraez (shoulder) will be joining the Twins for the start of their upcoming road trip, which begins Monday in Seattle, Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com reports.

Arraez has been rehabbing with Triple-A St. Paul since Friday, and he's apparently been feeling well in his return to the diamond. While Baldelli didn't explicitly say when the utility man could be activated, all signs point toward him being reinstated from the injured list prior to Monday's series opener against the Mariners. Arraez hasn't played since May 23 because of a right shoulder strain, but he could pick up regular work in the outfield upon being activated.

Kemp is in the starting lineup Sunday against Kansas City, playing second base and batting ninth, Matt Kawahara of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Kemp has received the bulk of his starts against right-handed starters this season, but he'll get the nod against southpaw Kris Bubic on Sunday. Kemp has enjoyed a strong month of June so far, going 10-for-30 with a triple, homer, six RBI and eight runs scored across nine games.

Castro will start at first base and bat ninth Sunday against the White Sox, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.

Castro wasn't included in the Tigers' initial lineup for the series finale, but he'll end up cracking the starting nine after Jonathan Schoop was scratched with a sore left hand. Assuming Schoop's injury proves to be a minor concern, Castro will likely transition back into a utility role in the infield during the upcoming week.

Arraez (shoulder) is 2-for-8 with a walk in two games for Triple-A St. Paul during his current rehab stint. " I throw a couple balls yesterday and my shoulder's good, so I'm ready to go right now," he told the St. Paul Pioneer Press.

It's not clear how many games Arraez will need before being activated from the injured list, but it sounds like he has a good chance of returning early this week. He could see regular duty in the outfield when he returns given all the injuries in the Twins' outfield.

Clement was recalled to the 26-man roster prior to Sunday's game against the Mariners, Mandy Bell of MLB.com reports.

Clement was recalled to the big club May 30 but did not appear in a game before being sent back to Triple-A Columbus on June 1. The infielder will rejoin Cleveland on Sunday and will look to make his major-league debut at some point in the coming days. Triston McKenzie was optioned to Columbus in a corresponding roster move.
