Mondesi exited Triple-A Omaha's Sunday game with an apparent injury, Storm Chasers radio broadcaster Donny Baarns reports.

Mondesi apparently tweaked something like attempting to get out of the way of an arrant pitch. The details of the injury have not yet been revealed. He'll be considered day-to-day.

O'Malley (shoulder) went 2-for-2 with a triple, three walks and three runs as the designated hitter for Rookie-level Arizona on Saturday, Greg Johns of MLB.com reports.

The utility man couldn't have asked for a better 2017 debut, and is likely in for at least several more games at the Rookie level before taking his rehab up the organizational ranks. O'Malley slashed .229/.299/.319 with two home runs and 17 RBI over 89 games with the Mariners last season in what was his first taste of extended big-league action. If he remains free of setbacks, O'Malley should be cleared for a return to the big-league club at some point next month, although how much playing time he'll see will largely depend on the club's injury situation at the time.

Anderson hit the game-winning home run Saturday against the Rockies, capping a 2-for-4 night.

He parked it over the center field fence at Coors Field for his second blast in as many games. Anderson was recently stuck in a 2-for-25 slide, but this park has a tendency to cure slumps. While it's promising to see his power return, it's best to put off trusting him fully in most mixed formats until he shows more consistency playing at sea level.

Bogaerts (hand) is back in the lineup Saturday, starting at shortstop and batting third, Michael Silverman of the Boston Herald reports.

Bogaerts sat out the past two games while dealing with swelling in his right hand following an HBP, but appears ready to get back to action. It's good news for both the Red Sox and fantasy owners alike, as the shortstop leads the team with a .308 batting average this season to go along with 41 RBI.

Tejada is not starting Saturday's matchup against the Twins, Roch Kubatko of MASN Sports reports.

The Orioles continue to search for answers in the middle infield and Tejada's absence for three of the past five games indicates he may be on the outside looking in. Jonathan Schoop will move over from second to make his first major-league start at shortstop, enabling Johnny Giavotella to take over at the keystone.

Anderson went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run during Friday's loss to Colorado.

The young shortstop is providing modest production in the counting stats (eight homers, 27 RBI, 35 runs and five stolen bases) because of his consistent at-bats, but his .239/.263/.361 slash line affirms his mediocrity. Anderson is best left to deep formats.

Lindor went 3-for-5 with a triple, two runs scored, three RBI and a stolen base in Friday's 11-2 win over the Tigers.

The All-Star now has seven hits in his last three games and continues to be a run-producing machine, hitting .276 (21-for-76) over his last 17 games with a homer and 15 RBI. Lindor's traded some batting average for power so far this season, but a BABIP closer to his career average in the second half could allow him to supply the best of both worlds.

Bichette will be promoted to High-A Dunedin after playing in Sunday's All-Star Futures Game, Freelance writer John Lott reports.

The Midwest League proved to be no competition for Bichette, who slashed .384/.448/.623 over 70 games with Low-A Lansing. At 19 years old, the shortstop will garner national attention over the weekend in Miami before seeing how he matches up against Florida State League pitching.

Correa went 2-for-5 with a double and a two-run homer Friday against the Blue Jays.

Correa crushed his 18th homer of the season to start the scoring for the Astros on a night in which they destroyed Aaron Sanchez. He's had a true breakout as an elite performer in his third season, as he's slashing .320/.397/.560.

O'Malley (shoulder) will start his rehab assignment with Rookie-level Arizona on Saturday, MLB.com's Greg Johns reports.

O'Malley has been out this entire season after undergoing arthroscopic surgery on his shoulder in May. The shortstop resumed baseball activities in early June and finally makes his return to the field this weekend. There has yet to be a clear timetable for O'Malley, but the 29-year-old will likely return to the big-league club around the beginning of August if all goes according to plan.
