Correa (ankle) has begun light on-field baseball activities as well as a running progression, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

Correa underwent season-ending left ankle surgery in May. Nothing has changed regarding Correa's timetable, but the veteran being able to re-incorporate baseball activities in late July gives him a chance to enter the offseason without any major restrictions.

The Rangers reinstated Seager from the 10-day injured list Friday.

Seager landed on the IL on July 1 with a back injury and will return to action exactly 30 days later after being activated Friday. The 32-year-old has slashed a career-worst .182/.292/.374 with 10 home runs and 25 RBI in 219 plate appearances this season. Texas optioned Josh Smith to Triple-A to make room for Seager on the active roster.

The Athletics selected Ornelas' contract from Triple-A Las Vegas on Friday.

Ornelas recently signed a minor-league deal with the A's, and eight days later he will join the big-league club in Sacramento. The 26-year-old was most recently featured in the majors in 2025 with both Texas and Atlanta. With Joshua Kuroda-Grauer (groin) not due back for some time, Ornelas will provide depth in the middle infield for the Athletics.

Adames went 1-for-5 with a run scored and a stolen base in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Padres.

Adames singled in the second inning before coming around to score. He also reached base on a fielder's choice in the seventh and stole second, logging his fourth stolen base of the season. The veteran shortstop has recorded a hit in six straight games and is now batting .214 with 16 runs scored, 13 RBI, four home runs and three stolen bases across 95 plate appearances in July. Overall, he's slashing .227/.281/.425 with 56 runs scored, 45 RBI and 18 long balls in 437 plate appearances this season.

High-A Jersey Shore activated Spikerman (ankle) from the 7-day injured list Thursday.

Spikerman missed about a month of action with an ankle injury, but he's back with Jersey Shore after making a pair of rehab appearances for Single-A Clearwater. Over 125 plate appearances for the High-A club, the switch-hitting outfielder is slashing .253/.405/.337 with four doubles, two triples, nine RBI and 18 stolen bases.

De La Cruz went 3-for-4 with a walk, three doubles, two steals, an RBI and two runs scored in Thursday's 3-2 win over Pittsburgh.

De La Cruz, who scored the game-winning run on a walk-off fielder's choice, filled the box score like he's done many times before. The multi-hit effort was his third in the last five games, and the two steals upped his total to 20, the fourth consecutive season with at least 20 thefts. Since the All-Star break, De La Cruz has posted a slash line of .308/.400/.577 with with eight walks, three doubles, one triple, three home runs, four RBI and six steals over 13 games.

Crawford is not in the lineup Thursday against the Dodgers.

Crawford is beginning the game from the bench for the second consecutive night Thursday. He didn't start in Wednesday's 4-2 loss to the Dodgers, though he did come off the bench as a defensive replacement in the eighth inning. Weston Wilson is starting at the hot corner while Colt Emerson mans shortstop Thursday.

Turner went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in Wednesday's loss to Miami.

The veteran shortstop has mostly struggled at the plate this season, but he's swinging a better bat as of late. Over 98 plate appearances in July, Turner is hitting .267 with six homers, three doubles, one triple and 14 RBI. For the season, he's still slashing an underwhelming .243/.292/.392 with 15 long balls, 42 RBI, 73 runs scored and 17 stolen bases across 469 plate appearances.

Kim (finger) has gone 7-for-31 (.226) with four doubles, three steals, three runs and three RBI over his last nine games for Triple-A Gwinnett.

The veteran infielder began a rehab assignment July 13 in the Florida Complex League before getting bumped up to Gwinnett on July 18. Per Mark Bowman of MLB.com, Kim's 20-day rehab stint will end after Saturday's contest, forcing Atlanta to either activate him or find a way to move him to another organization -- something that could be difficult given the remaining money on his one-year, $20 million contract, and his .068/.171/.068 slash line through 82 big-league plate appearances this season.

Caballero is absent from the lineup for Thursday's tilt versus the White Sox.

The Yankees will go with Anthony Volpe at shortstop in the series finale. Caballero has just a .574 OPS in July but did contribute a pair of hits and a stolen base in Wednesday's loss to the White Sox.
