The Yankees claimed Alexander off waivers Sunday and optioned him to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

Alexander had been with the Athletics' organization this season until he was DFA'd on Thursday. The 28-year-old went 3-for-17 over six games with the Athletics but posted an .866 OPS with 10 homers, 32 RBI and two stolen bases over 180 plate appearances with Triple-A Las Vegas.

According to Orioles interim manager Tony Masolino, Westburg (hamstring) is trending toward a return Tuesday, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

Westburg landed on the injured list April 28 and began a minor-league rehab assignment May 26. He's been on fire with Triple-A Norfolk, slashing .360/.429/.760 with two homers and five RBI over seven games. Ramon Urias has been Baltimore's primary third baseman while Westburg has been sidelined.

Lewis is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Blue Jays.

Lewis has finally begun to round into form at the plate, but the Twins will still give him a chance to catch his breath in Sunday's series finale. Brooks Lee will step in at third base in place of Lewis, who has gone 5-for-14 with two doubles, four walks, four RBI and three runs in his last five contests.

Tena is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rangers.

Tena will hit the bench for the fourth time in five games, with all of his absences coming against left-handed starting pitchers. The Rangers are having southpaw Jacob Latz serve as an opener for Sunday's contest, so Tena could end up subbing in for Amed Rosario once Latz exits the contest.

Muncy went 2-for-2 with two walks and a stolen base Saturday in a loss to St. Louis.

The Dodgers offense struggled to produce runs again Saturday, but Muncy did what he could to set the table from the middle of the order by reaching in all four of his trips to the plate. The veteran third baseman even got himself into scoring position with a rare stolen base -- his third of the campaign, which is already tied for the second-highest total of his career -- but he ended up being stranded there. Muncy continues to turn things around at the plate; he was hitting below the Mendoza Line as recently as May 14 but has batted .311 over 20 games since then to push his season slash line to .229/.353/.422.

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

Espinal is on the bench for the second day in a row and appears to have shifted back into a utility role in the wake of Christian Encarnacion-Strand's return from the injured list. Espinal has gone just 1-for-29 over his last eight games and is slashing just .239/.296/.287 over 204 plate appearances on the season.

Chapman went 1-for-4 with a walk-off two-run home run in Saturday's 3-2 victory over Atlanta.

The third baseman played hero Saturday, launching a walk-off homer to extend the Giants' winning streak to four games. The team has leaned heavily on its pitching, but Chapman has been a key contributor offensively, slashing .389/.463/.750 with seven extra-base hits and five RBI over his past 10 games. The 32-year-old and Heliot Ramos are the only Giants with an OPS above .800 this season.

Ramirez went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run, two runs scored and a walk during Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Astros in extra innings.

After seeing a 21-game hit streak come to a close on May 30, Ramirez has had at least a hit in all seven games since, and he has had multiple hits on five of those occasions. He has a .392/.453/.648 slash line with nine doubles, seven homers, 11 steals, 17 RBI and 27 runs in 32 games since the start of May.

Durbin went 2-for-4 with a walk-off solo home run in Saturday's 4-3 victory versus San Diego.

The Padres rallied from a two-run deficit to tie the score in the top of the ninth inning, but that just set up Durbin's heroics. The rookie infielder led off the bottom of the frame and deposited David Morgan's first pitch over the outfield wall to send the Brewers home with a victory. It was just the second career homer for Durbin, who has struggled to gain his footing in the majors with a .218/.298/.331 slash line through 44 games.

Mastrobuoni went 1-for-2 with a walk, one stolen base and one run scored in Saturday's 8-6 loss to the Angels.

Mastrobuoni continues to fill a part-time role as a utility player. The 29-year-old's steal was his third of the season and his first since May 7 versus the Athletics. He's gone 4-for-8 across five games in June, but his inconsistent playing time limits any potential upside. For the year, he's slashing .243/.325/.301 with one home run, eight RBI, 13 runs scored and three doubles over 120 plate appearances.
