  • Ernie Clement SS | TOR

    Blue Jays' Ernie Clement: Recalled from Triple-A

    Clement was recalled from Triple-A Buffalo on Tuesday, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca reports.

    Clement is 2-for-5 at the dish during his brief time in the majors this season. He'll provide depth along the infield for the Blue Jays.

  • Angels' Brandon Drury: Suspended one game

    Drury was suspended one game by Major League Baseball for making contact with an umpire during Monday's game versus the Rangers, Sam Blum of The Athletic reports.

    Drury is appealing the suspension and is in the lineup Tuesday, playing first base and batting third. The 30-year-old has put up a .771 OPS with 10 home runs and 30 RBI over 61 contests for the Angels this season.

  • Royals' Michael Massey: Out against lefty

    Massey isn't starting Tuesday against the Reds, Joel Goldberg of Bally Sports Kansas City reports.

    Southpaw Brandon Williamson will take the mound for Cincinnati to begin Tuesday's contest, meaning the left-handed bat of Massey will start off in the dugout. Matt Duffy will take over at second base and bat seventh.

  • Red Sox's Enrique Hernandez: Sitting Tuesday

    Hernandez isn't in the lineup Tuesday against Colorado, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.

    Hernandez is slashing .231/.259/.385 over the past seven days and will get a rare day off Tuesday. Pablo Reyes will take over as Boston's shortstop while batting ninth.

  • Royals' Michael Massey: Doubles twice in loss

    Massey went 2-for-5 with a pair of doubles Monday in the Royals' 5-4 extra-inning loss to the Reds.

    Massey put an end to a nine-game stretch in which he failed to produce an extra-base hit while going 3-for-29 overall. Though Massey has seen his OPS drop 87 points from 2022 (.683 to .596), the 25-year-old still looks to be fairly secure in a near-everyday role either at second base or designated hitter.

  • Red Sox's Christian Arroyo: Launches homer in loss

    Arroyo went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Monday's 4-3 extra-inning loss to the Rockies.

    Arroyo gave the Red Sox a 2-1 lead in the seventh with his second homer of the season, but the relief corps and poor defense let the Red Sox down. He's started five of the eight games since being activated off the injured list.

  • Andy Ibanez 2B | ATH

    Tigers' Andy Ibanez: Goes deep Monday

    Ibanez went 3-for-4 with a solo homer, a double, two runs scored and a walk in Monday's win against Atlanta.

    Ibanez finally put the Tigers on the board with his solo shot in the seventh inning. He produced three hits in a game for the first time since May 3 but still owns an unsightly .202/.239/.375 slash line. Ibanez has 11 extra-base hits (three home runs) and 12 runs scored through 109 plate appearances.

  • Bryson Stott 2B | PHI

    Phillies' Bryson Stott: Takes seat versus southpaw

    Stott is absent from the lineup for Monday's contest in Arizona, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.

    Stott will begin this one on the bench as the Diamondbacks start left-hander Tommy Henry. Josh Harrison is getting the start at second base.

  • Luis Rengifo 2B | MIL

    Angels' Luis Rengifo: Retreats to bench Monday

    Rengifo is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Rangers, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

    Rengifo had started in seven of the Angels' last eight games, but his opportunities may become more sporadic moving forward while the Halos have all their key position players following the recent returns for Anthony Rendon from the injured list and Hunter Renfroe from the paternity list. Because he's capable of playing all three outfield spots in addition to second base, third base and shortstop, Rengifo will at least have multiple avenues to get into the lineup on days that manager Phil Nevin chooses to rest any of his regulars.

  • Romy Gonzalez 2B | BOS

    White Sox's Romy Gonzalez: Pair of RBI in return to lineup

    Gonzalez went 1-for-4 with a double and two RBI on Sunday against the Marlins.

    Gonzalez was back in the lineup after a two-game absence, with Elvis Andrus starting in his place. He delivered a two-RBI double in the sixth inning, only his third hit across 19 at-bats through seven games in June. Gonzalez may find it difficult to earn playing time moving forward so long as Andrus, Tim Anderson and Yoan Moncada remain healthy.
