Alvarez cleared waivers Thursday and was sent outright to Triple-A Las Vegas.

The 30-year-old Alvarez posted a .967 OPS in Triple-A across 317 plate appearances in 2024 and reached the majors for the first time, going 9-for-37 with two RBI over 16 games. However, he no longer owns a spot on the Athletics' 40-man roster and will remain in Las Vegas as organizational depth.

Chisholm will start at third base and bat cleanup Wednesday in Game 5 of the World Series versus the Dodgers.

Chisholm was moved up from the No. 5 spot to the No. 4 spot in the Yankees' Game 4 victory and manager Aaron Boone will keep him there for Game 5 after Chisholm reached twice and stole a base Tuesday. Giancarlo Stanton will hit fifth for the second straight contest.

Manager Aaron Boone said Friday that Berti was left off the Yankees' World Series roster due to a right hip flexor injury, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

The Yankees skipper noted that Berti's injury occurred while he was running the bases in Game 4 of the ALCS, and he would have been part of the roster had he not gotten hurt. Because of the utility man's absence, Nestor Cortes (elbow) will rejoin New York's roster to provide additional pitching depth for the World Series.

Berti is not on the Yankees' World Series roster.

Berti has made three starts at first base against lefties this postseason, but the Yankees have elected to carry Nestor Cortes (elbow) on their World Series roster instead. With Berti off the roster, the Yankees will either start Anthony Rizzo or Oswaldo Cabrera at first base versus left-handers.

Leblanc was outrighted to Triple-A Salt Lake on Thursday.

Leblanc spent a small portion of the second half of the season in the majors and did manage a pair of home runs with six RBI across 28 plate appearances. However, he also struck out at a 32.1 percent clip. Leblanc can stick in the Angels' organization or opt for free agency.

Jung underwent tendon release surgery on his right wrist Tuesday, Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com reports.

Jung missed most of the first four months of the season after having surgery to repair a fracture in the same wrist, and he went back on the injured list in late September with recurring discomfort. The hope is that, following this most recent wrist surgery, he will be able to have a normal offseason after 3-4 weeks of rehab. Jung had a .719 OPS with seven homers over 46 games with the Rangers this season.

Cabrera is not in the lineup Thursday for Game 4 of the ALDS against the Royals.

Yankees manager Aaron Boone has alternated starts at first base in the ALDS, with Cabrera starting Games 1 and 3 and Jon Berti handling the position in Games 2 and 4. Cabrera is 1-for-5 with a double and three walks in the series.

Berti is starting at first base and batting ninth Thursday in Game 4 of the ALDS in Kansas City, Jack Curry of YES Network reports.

Berti received his first professional start at first base in Game 2 and will be back there in Game 4 as the Yankees try to close out the series. Oswaldo Cabrera -- who started Games 1 and 3 at first base -- will begin this contest on the bench.

Cabrera will start at first base and bat eighth Wednesday in Game 3 of the ALDS in Kansas City.

Cabrera started Game 1 before yielding to Jon Berti in Game 2, but he will be back at first base for Game 3. The switch hitter went 1-for-4 with a double and three strikeouts in the first game of the series.

Berti is starting at first base and batting ninth Monday in Game 2 of the ALDS against the Royals.

The 34-year-old Berti has never played first base before in the majors or minors, but he's been working out at the position in recent days and the Yankees feel comfortable enough with how he's looked there to throw him into the fire. Oswaldo Cabrera -- who started at first base in Game 1 and went 1-for-4 with a double and three strikeouts -- will begin the contest on the bench.
