The Yankees recalled Peraza from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Sunday.

With Josh Donaldson (calf) headed for the 10-day injured list, Peraza will come up to provide the Yankees with additional infield depth. Peraza is slashing .261/.352/.495 this season in Triple-A, but he's struggled heavily during his limited major-league opportunities.

The Yankees placed Donaldson on the 10-day injured list Sunday with a right calf strain.

Donaldson's right calf gave him problems once again during Saturday's win over Colorado, and he'll now be placed on the shelf for 10 days after an MRI revealed a strain. Oswald Peraza was brought up from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre in a corresponding move.

The Brewers placed Anderson (back) on the 10-day injured list Sunday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Anderson has been dealing with back discomfort, and it's now come to light that he has a strain in his lower back, so he will be sidelined indefinitely. Jahmai Jones was recalled in a corresponding move while Andruw Monasterio will get the start at third base in Sunday's series finale in Cincinnati.

The Pirates optioned Castro to Triple-A Indianapolis on Sunday.

Castro's performance slipped in June and his playing time dried up, so he will head to the minors for the first time this season and attempt to get back on track with regular at-bats. The 24-year-old has a .228/.317/.355 line in 224 plate appearances with the big club this year, a step back from 2022. Andrew McCutchen (elbow) took Castro's spot on the active roster.

Machado went 1-for-7 with a solo home run and two walks during Saturday's doubleheader against Philadelphia.

Machado's clutch 425-foot solo shot in the eighth inning of Game 1 gave San Diego a one-run lead, though the Phillies ultimately stormed back to win that contest before also taking Game 2. The long ball was the 300th of Machado's career, making him one of 11 active big-leaguers to reach that mark. The veteran third baseman has been swinging a potent stick of late, smashing eight homers and driving in 18 runs over his past 11 contests.

Burger went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a double Saturday in a 6-5 victory versus Atlanta.

Burger produced arguably the biggest hit of the contest, swatting a solo shot off Spencer Strider in the sixth inning to snap a 4-4 tie. The long ball was the 20th of the season for Burger, fifth-most in the American League. That power has helped Burger remain in the lineup most days despite a 33.0 percent strikeout rate and .222 batting average.

Moustakas went 1-for-5 with a three-run home run in Saturday's 13-12 extra-inning win over the Astros.

Moustakas' seventh-inning blasted tied the game at 9-9, erasing a six-run deficit. He's hit three homers in 13 games with the Angels after swatting just four in 47 contests with the Rockies to begin the year. The infielder is slashing .261/.341/.435 with 24 RBI, 27 runs scored and seven doubles over 185 plate appearances overall, primarily serving in a strong-side platoon role.

Arenado went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and an additional RBI in Saturday's win over Washington.

Arenado tagged Paolo Espino for a long ball in the eighth inning, his 20th of the season and his fourth in his last six contests. The third baseman has collected a hit in 11 of his last 14 appearances, a stretch in which he's hitting 18-for-52 (.346) with 12 RBI and 10 runs scored.

LeMahieu went 3-for-4 with two doubles and a run scored in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Rockies.

LeMahieu has hit safely in five straight games, going 8-for-20 (.400) in that span after batting just .150 over his previous 17 contests. The infielder's recent slump cratered his OPS to a low point of .645 on July 5, but he's up to a .232 batting average and .666 OPS with seven home runs, 27 RBI, 29 runs scored, 15 doubles and two triples through 78 games overall.

Farmer went 3-for-5 with a solo home run, a double and two additional RBI in Saturday's win over the Athletics.

After going without a home run for 23 games, Farmer took Freddy Tarnok yard in the seventh inning for his fifth long ball of the campaign. The multi-hit effort broke Farmer out of a slump during which he batted 5-for-34 (.147) over 14 games.
