Young went 2-for-4 with a solo home run, an RBI triple and a second run scored in Thursday's 6-0 win over the Rangers.

Young's fifth-inning home run was a mammoth blast to right field that left the bat at 113.4 mph. The next inning, he added an RBI triple at a still-sizzling 106.3 mph before scoring on a passed ball. The infielder entered Thursday just 4-for-24 over nine games since the All-Star break, so this was a big performance for him. He's up to a .247/.311/.356 slash line with three homers, 14 RBI, 16 runs scored, five doubles, one triple and no stolen bases over 162 plate appearances. The Mariners' trade-deadline moves didn't address the middle infield, so Young should continue to hold down a strong-side platoon role at second base.

Jackson was recalled by the Orioles on Thursday.

Jackson had a brief stint with the Orioles in late July, but he did not make an appearance. Given the departures along the Orioles' infield at the trade deadline, Jackson should have the chance to make his big-league debut as a utility player.

The Cubs acquired Castro from the Twins on Thursday in exchange for right-handers Sam Armstrong and Ryan Gallagher, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.

The switch-hitting Castro will likely play all over the infield and outfield for the Cubs, serving as an injury fill-in or as a lineup replacement when a regular needs a day off or is slumping. The move to Chicago could result in less playing time than he received in Minnesota, where Castro slashed .245/.335/.407 with 10 home runs and nine steals in 86 games.

Houston optioned Whitcomb to Triple-A Sugar Land on Thursday.

The Astros made a flurry of acquisitions ahead of Thursday's trade deadline that led to Whitcomb losing his spot on the 26-man active roster. The 26-year-old infielder is closing in on his third season in a row with 20-plus homers and double-digit steals at the Triple-A level, but he has a career .178 average and .231 on-base percentage in 78 plate appearances in the big leagues.

Riggio was traded from the Yankees to the Rockies on Thursday along with Ben Shields in exchange for Jake Bird, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.

Riggio's minor-league numbers may oversell his abilities, as he's typically been old for the levels he's had success at, but now that he could get to play half his games in Coors Field, his dynasty value gets a little bump. The 23-year-old second baseman is slashing .261/.335/.542 with 11 home runs, seven steals, a 7.6 percent walk rate and a 21.8 percent strikeout rate in 40 games since getting promoted to Double-A on June 3.

Chisholm went 1-for-5 with two stolen bases in a 5-4, extra-innings win against the Rays on Wednesday.

Chisholm singled and proceeded to steal both second and third base in the fourth inning but was stranded without crossing the plate. However, he scored the winning run in the 11th frame after beginning on second as the automatic runner. The thefts were Chisholm's first since June 10 -- a span of 40 games. While he hasn't been as active on the basepaths this season, his .813 OPS is on pace for the second-best mark of his career.

Lowe went 2-for-4 with a double, an RBI and a walk Wednesday against the Yankees.

Lowe returned from the injured list after a minimum stint and hit second in the order. He doubled in a run in his second at-bat and followed that up with a single in the fifth inning. Lowe has hit .315 with eight home runs, 20 RBI and 25 runs scored across 34 games since the start of June, and he should play nearly every day across the last two months of the season if he can stay healthy.

The Rays optioned Gray to Triple-A Durham on Wednesday.

The move makes room on the 26-man roster for Brandon Lowe (foot), who was reinstated from the 10-day injured list. Gray was acquired by the Rays from the White Sox on Saturday, and he has spent most of the season at the Triple-A level, where he slashed .270/.333/.472 with three steals, four triples, nine home runs and 44 RBI across 282 plate appearances.

The Rays activated Lowe (foot) from the 10-day injured list Wednesday, Ryan Bass of FanDuel Sports Network Sun reports.

Lowe required just the minimum 10 days on the IL while recovering from plantar fasciitis in his left foot. He is starting at second base and batting second in Wednesday's contest against the Yankees in what could be his final game in a Rays uniform prior to Thursday's trade deadline. Tristan Gray was optioned to Triple-A Durham in a corresponding move.

Urias isn't in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Mariners.

Urias will sit down for Wednesday's series finale after going 1-for-6 with a run scored over the Athletics' last two games against Seattle. Max Schuemann will shift to second base to cover for Urias while Darell Hernaiz starts at shortstop.
