Sweeney is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Yankees.

Sweeney made his major-league debut Friday, going 1-for-3 with one strikeout. With the Yankees sending southpaw Carlos Rodon to the mound Saturday, the lefty-hitting Sweeney will retreat to the bench. Javier Baez will start at shortstop and bat eighth.

Correa (heel) ran at full speed for the first time in a week Thursday, Phil Miller of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports. "We need to get him to where he's comfortable running on a daily basis, not having soreness the next day," said Twins head athletic trainer Nick Paparesta.

Correa was placed on the 10-day injured list July 20 due to right plantar fasciitis. It initially didn't appear he would be out long, but he was still experiencing pain in his heel in early August while jogging. It sounds like he's ramped up his activity in recent days, but there's still no timeline for when he might begin a rehab assignment.

Witt went 3-for-4 with a solo home run, a double and three total runs scored in Friday's 7-1 win over the Reds.

Witt continues to put up MVP-caliber numbers -- the shortstop has five homers in his last seven games while going 12-for-26 (.462) in that span. Witt leads the majors with a .352 batting average to go along with a 1.021 OPS, 25 homers, 90 RBI, 105 runs scored and 25 stolen bases through 537 plate appearances this season.

Rocchio is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Brewers.

Rocchio will begin Friday's game in the dugout after going 1-for-7 with an RBI over his last two outings. Daniel Schneemann will start at shortstop and bat eight against Milwaukee right-hander Aaron Civale.

The Astros selected Whitcomb's contract from Triple-A Sugar Land on Friday, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Whitcomb has slashed .293/.378/.530 slash line in 108 games with Sugar Land this season, popping 25 home runs and stealing 26 bases along the way, and he led the entire minors leagues with 35 homers in 2023. He can play all over the infield and has also been used some in the outfield this year. Whitcomb could initially see his reps at third base with Alex Bregman (elbow) banged up, but first base is another option since it's been a weak spot for the Astros. The 25-year-old is not in the lineup for Friday's game versus the White Sox.

The Tigers selected Sweeney's contract from Triple-A Toledo on Friday.

Acquired from the Dodgers in last month's Jack Flaherty trade, Sweeney has slashed .267/.345/.450 with 15 home runs and 20 stolen bases over 107 contests at the Triple-A level this season. The 24-year-old has played shortstop almost exclusively in the minors and should see most of the reps there against right-handers, with Javier Baez perhaps limited to a short-side platoon.

Henderson went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run in Thursday's 5-1 win over the Red Sox.

After being stuck at 29 homers for seven games, Henderson has smacked a long ball in consecutive contests. He's up to 31 homers this season, though he's hit just five of them since the start of July. Even with less power, he's been productive -- he's batting .321 (17-for-53) in August and has a fantastic .289/.374/.558 slash line with 73 RBI, 96 runs scored, 23 doubles, six triples and 14 stolen bases through 120 contests overall.

Bichette (calf) has resumed baseball activities at the Blue Jays' spring training complex in Florida, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.

Bichette will remain in Florida for a while to ramp back up before the Blue Jays consider a rehab assignment, so he looks to be multiple weeks away from a return. Leo Jimenez has been filling in at shortstop since Bichette was sidelined in late July with a moderate right calf strain.

Moore went 0-for-3 with a hit-by-pitch and a stolen base in a loss to the Tigers on Thursday.

Moore took advantage of his lone time on the basepaths to record his 22nd steal of the campaign, a new career high. The versatile veteran finished July on a six-game hitting streak, but his bat has gone cold in August to the tune of a .118/.268/.147 slash line and 34.1 percent strikeout rate across 41 plate appearances (11 games).

The Astros are expected to select Whitcomb's contract from Triple-A Sugar Land on Friday, Ari Alexander of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

The 25-year-old is one of the Astros' top remaining prospects after the trade deadline and has taken a major step forward at Triple-A this season with 25 homers, 26 steals and a .293/.378/.530 slash line in 108 games, which earned him his first look in the big leagues. Whitcomb has played all over the diamond at Sugar Land, and while he's seen most of his playing time at second base, third base and shortstop, Houston's major lineup hole is at first base. The utility player is likely to see plenty of action there in addition to the corner outfield and designated hitter spots.
