  • Rays' Junior Caminero: Receiving afternoon off

    Caminero is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Yankees, Ryan Bass of FanDuel Sports Network Sun reports.

    He'll head to the bench for the first time since April 5 in what appears to be a planned rest day after 25 straight starts. Curtis Mead will fill in at third base Sunday, giving Caminero a chance to hit the reset button after a 1-for-16 stretch at the plate has brought his batting average down to .240.

  • Jose Ramirez 3B | CLE

    Guardians' Jose Ramirez: Back in action Sunday

    Ramirez (ankle) is starting at third base and batting third against the Blue Jays on Sunday.

    The 32-year-old was held out of Saturday's starting nine after he suffered an ankle sprain during Friday's contest, but he'll end up missing only one game. Ramirez is in the midst of a 10-game homer drought during which he has a .270/.289/.297 slash line with one double and five steals.

  • Will Wilson SS | SEA

    Guardians' Will Wilson: Starts at third base

    Wilson started at third base and went 0-for-2 in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Blue Jays.

    Jose Ramirez was shelved after spraining his right ankle during Friday's game, which opened up the hot corner for Wilson. The Guardians have multiple options currently on the roster to fill in at third, but Ramirez's injury is not considered serious. Wilson has gone 3-for-16 with two walks and a run scored since being called up in April.

  • Ramon Urias 2B | HOU

    Orioles' Ramon Urias: Placed on injured list

    The Orioles placed Urias on the 10-day injured list Saturday due to a right hamstring strain, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

    Urias' hamstring has prevented him from playing since Friday, and now that he's on the IL, it will continue to keep him on the sidelines until at least May 13. Coby Mayo was recalled from Triple-A Norfolk in a corresponding move and will presumably get regular work at third base until Urias or Jordan Westburg (hamstring) returns.

  • Ramon Urias 2B | HOU

    Orioles' Ramon Urias: Remaining out Saturday

    Urias (hamstring) isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Royals.

    Urias was a late scratch from Friday's lineup due to hamstring tightness, and he'll miss a second consecutive game Saturday while Emmanuel Rivera starts at third base. Baltimore hasn't provided any updates on Urias' status, but it seems likely that he's headed for the injured list with Coby Mayo set to come up from Triple-A Norfolk.

  • Jose Ramirez 3B | CLE

    Guardians' Jose Ramirez: Not starting Saturday

    Ramirez (ankle) isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against Toronto.

    Ramirez suffered a sprained right ankle during Friday's contest and will be held out of Saturday's contest in order to recover. Will Wilson will pick up a start at the hot corner as a result and bat seventh.

  • Ernie Clement SS | TOR

    Blue Jays' Ernie Clement: Resting Saturday

    Clement isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Guardians.

    Clement will get a day off Saturday after making four consecutive starts, during which he went 3-for-14 with a run scored. Addison Barger will fill in at the hot corner and bat sixth.

  • Abraham Toro 1B | BOS

    Red Sox's Abraham Toro: Contract selected

    The Red Sox selected Toro's contract from Triple-A Worcester on Saturday.

    With Triston Casas (knee) likely out for the rest of the season, the Red Sox will turn to Toro to provide the big club with infield depth. The 28-year-old got off to a great start in the minors, slashing .310/.403/.480 with 13 RBI and 16 runs scored through 119 plate appearances.

  • Cam Smith 3B | HOU

    Astros' Cam Smith: Sitting down Saturday

    Smith isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the White Sox.

    Smith will give way to Zach Dezenzo in right field after going 0-for-3 with a walk and a strikeout in Friday's series opener.

  • Alex Bregman 3B | CHC

    Red Sox's Alex Bregman: Continues to rake in win

    Bregman went 2-for-4 with a double and a solo home run in Friday's 6-1 win over the Twins.

    Bregman's torrid stretch continued Friday, as he's now riding a 12-game hitting streak and four-game extra-base hit streak. During his 12-game hit streak, the star third baseman is batting .396 (19-for-48) with four homers, six doubles, 11 RBI and 11 runs scored. Friday also marked Bregman's fifth outing with multiple extra-base knocks.
