Heim took batting practice Tuesday for the first time since suffering a torn tendon sheath in his left wrist, Evan Grant of the Dallas Morning News reports.

Heim took about 15-20 swings of pitching from Rangers hitting instructor Tim Hyers and also caught a bullpen session. Texas manager Bruce Bochy left open the possibility that Heim could face live pitching as early as Monday and potentially return during the team's six-game homestand next week. The plan calls for the switch-hitting Heim to bat from the left side only, as the left wrist is non-dominant when swinging from that side.

Rutschman went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and an additional run scored in Tuesday's loss to Houston.

Rutschman tagged Framber Valdez for a two-run shot in the second inning, bringing James McCann around to score and marking Rutschman's seventh consecutive game recording an RBI. Over that stretch, he's hitting 9-for-27 (.333) with five runs scored and has struck out just once in 32 plate appearances.

Grandal was removed from Tuesday's game against the Yankees with left knee soreness.

Grandal previously missed time in June due to soreness in his right knee, and now his left knee is giving him problems as well. He's officially listed as day-to-day, suggesting the injury may not be too severe. However, more information will likely come after Tuesday's game.

Rogers went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's win over the Twins.

Rogers continues to increase his career high in home runs, as he now has 14 this season, which is four more than he had in his entire career coming into the year. The catcher also struck out again Tuesday, something he's doing 33 percent of the time this season. Rogers will likely remain a boom-or-bust option the rest of the way given his all-or-nothing approach at the plate.

Thaiss is not in the lineup Tuesday against the Giants.

Chad Wallach will start at catcher and bat ninth as the Angels take on left-handed opener Scott Alexander, who is expected to be followed by fellow southpaw Alex Wood. Thaiss, a left-handed hitter, continues to draw the large majority of his playing time versus righties.

Perez (hand) is back in the lineup Tuesday at Boston.

Perez will start at catcher and bat cleanup versus the Red Sox and right-hander Kutter Crawford after taking a pitch off his left hand in Sunday's series finale against the Phillies. He suffered only a bruise.

O'Hoppe (shoulder) said Monday that he's starting a rehab assignment with Single-A Inland Empire on Tuesday, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

Angels manager Phil Nevin stated last Wednesday that O'Hoppe was on track to start his rehab stint the following week, and that has come to fruition with the catcher joining the Single-A club Tuesday. O'Hoppe hasn't seen any game action since suffering a torn labrum in a game April 20, and he's expected to need most or all of the 20-day rehab window before he's ready to return to the big club.

Cleveland placed Fry on the 10-day injured list Tuesday, retroactive to August 5, with a sore hamstring, Joe Noga of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

This helps to explain why Fry has been absent from the Guardians' lineup since Friday. He'll now remain sidelined for at least another week. Ramon Laureano, claimed off waivers from the Athletics on Monday, will fill the vacant 26-man roster spot ahead of Tuesday night's game against the Blue Jays.

Jeffers is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game in Detroit.

Jeffers slugged a home run in Monday's win in what was his third straight start (two at catcher and one at designated hitter), but he'll give way to Christian Vazquez behind the plate Tuesday. The 26-year-old boasts an .895 OPS with nine dingers over 211 plate appearances this season.

Garver went 3-for-4 with two doubles and two RBI in Monday's 5-3 win over the Athletics.

Garver extended his hitting streak to eight games, a span in which he's gone 12-for-29 (.414) with five extra-base hits and six RBI. The catcher has taken over as the Rangers' No. 1 behind the dish with Jonah Heim (wrist) on the injured list. Garver's up to a .284/.365/.489 slash line with seven home runs, eight doubles, 26 RBI and 19 runs scored through 159 plate appearances this season.
