Bichette went 3-for-4 with a walk, a double and a run scored for Triple-A Buffalo on Sunday.

The 21-year-old is now slashing a sizzling .365/.460/.554 through 20 games with two homers, eight steals, 11 RBI and 16 runs since recovering from a hand injury. Bichette is probably ready for a promotion right now, but with Freddy Galvis doing a solid job at shortstop for the Jays and the team not in contention, it could be a while before he joins Vlad Guerrero Jr. and Cavan Biggio in the majors.

Bogaerts went 1-for-3 with a two-run homer in a 12-8 loss to the Yankees on Sunday.

The 26-year-old went 1-for-3 in both games in London, reaching base four times during the two-game set. Bogaerts has hits in 12 of his last 13 games and has 10 extra-base hits during that stretch. He is batting .299 with 16 home runs, 57 RBI, 63 runs and three steals in 311 at-bats this season.

Crawford went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Sunday's loss to the Astros.

Crawford gave his club an early 1-0 lead in the first inning with a solo blast to right center, but Seattle was unable to do any additional damage on the day. The 24-year-old shortstop is slashing .310/.380/.500 with three homers and 22 RBI over 33 contests this season.

Gordon, who exited Saturday's extra-inning loss to the Astros with a quadriceps injury and is out of the lineup for Sunday's series finale, expects to be ready to return Tuesday when the Mariners begin a six-game homestand against the Cardinals, Greg Johns of MLB.com reports.

The veteran infielder experienced tightness in his quadriceps in the fourth inning of Saturday's game, prompting his preemptive removal from the contest. However, it appears the issue may only require a couple of days of rest, with Gordon potentially only missing one game since Monday is a travel day for the club. Gordon will naturally be put through the paces prior to Tuesday's contest before a final decision is made on his return to the lineup.

Adames went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in a win over the Rangers on Saturday.

Adames connected for his 10th homer of the season in the seventh inning, launching a 406-foot shot to right field off Peter Fairbanks and extending his hitting streak to five games in the process. Adames has encouragingly managed to put together a second consecutive solid month at the plate (.274 average during June) after entering May sporting a .200 average with one homer and four RBI.

The Indians optioned Chang to Triple-A Columbus on Sunday.

Chang earned his first callup to the big leagues earlier in the weekend following Jose Ramirez's placement on the paternity list. After starting at third base Friday against the Orioles and going 0-for-3, Chang was back on the bench Saturday, ultimately coming on as a pinch hitter and striking out in his lone plate appearance. With Ramirez returning to the team ahead of the series finale, Chang will forfeit his spot on the active roster.

Bogaerts (calf) is in the starting lineup at shortstop and batting third Sunday, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.

Bogaerts was removed from Saturday's game after experiencing cramping in both calves. The 92-degree heat and hard surface at London Stadium appears to have a played a role, per Jason Mastrodonato of the Boston Herald.

Gordon was pulled from Saturday's loss at Houston with a minor quadriceps injury, Shannon Drayer of 710 ESPN Seattle reports.

Gordon was removed for a pinch hitter in the fourth inning, but it's unclear when he actually sustained the injury. It's not believed to be a serious issue, but the 31-year-old could still be held out of the lineup Sunday with a scheduled off day awaiting Monday.

Bogaerts left Saturday's game against the Yankees with a left calf strain, Bob Nightengale of USA Today reports.

He suffered the injury while rounding second base in the bottom of the seventh inning. Eduardo Nunez, who replaced him at shortstop, could see more playing time for however long Bogaerts is sidelined.

Bogaerts was pulled from Saturday's game against the Yankees in the bottom of the seventh inning after he suffered an apparent lower-body injury while rounding second base, Julian McWilliams of The Boston Globe reports.

He initially stayed in to run for himself with what seemed like a potential cramp but was subbed out in between the seventh and eighth innings. The exact nature of the injury is unclear. Eduardo Nunez replaced him at shortstop.
