Bailey went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run during the Guardians' 6-1 win over the Blue Jays on Tuesday.

Bailey put the Guardians on the board with a two-run homer off Spencer Arrighetti in the fifth inning. It was Bailey's second home run as a member of the Guardians and his fourth multi-hit game over his last seven outings, during which he has gone 8-for-18 with seven RBI and three extra-base hits.

Martinez went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run and two additional runs scored during the Guardians' 6-1 win over the Blue Jays on Tuesday.

The Guardians smacked three two-run homers during Tuesday's win, with Martinez being responsible for the third one that took place in the eighth inning. Martinez has gone deep in back-to-back games and is up to 14 homers on the year. He has four multi-hit games over his last nine outings, going 11-for-31 (.355) with two homers, six RBI and six runs scored in that span.

Williams (13-7) earned the win against the Blue Jays on Tuesday, allowing one unearned run on two hits and one walk while striking out 13 across seven innings.

It was a nearly flawless performance from Williams, who capped off Tuesday's start by striking out five of the last six batters he faced. The one blemish to his night was a wild pitch in the fifth inning that allowed Kazuma Okamoto to score, but it was an otherwise spectacular night from Williams and a nice bounce back from his last outing against the Angels on Aug. 25, when he failed to make it out of the second inning. Williams' 13 wins are a career high, and he'll take a 3.81 ERA and 1.09 WHIP over 163 innings into his next start, tentatively slated for this weekend at home against Detroit.

White was removed from Tuesday's game against the Rangers with lower-back soreness, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

White tweaked his back on a swing in the second inning, and he was removed from the game before he could finish his at-bat. The A's will take a closer look at him and should provide an update on his health in the near future.

Robert isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against Colorado.

Robert will have to wait a bit longer before making his Orioles debut after being claimed off waivers from the Mets on Monday. Dylan Beavers, Colton Cowser and Leody Taveras will form Baltimore's outfield trio while Robert sits.

Mayo isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rockies.

Mayo has tallied at least one hit in each of his last six games, but the Orioles will keep him on the bench to begin Tuesday's contest. Samuel Basallo will fill in at first base, allowing Carlos Narvaez to start behind the plate.

Manager John Schneider said Yesavage (knee) will throw his first bullpen Friday, Hazel Mae of Sportsnet reports.

Yesavage has been throwing off flat ground, but he is about ready to take the next step in his recovery. When he has his bullpen session Friday, it will be about three weeks since he had surgery Aug. 11 to repair his torn meniscus. The right-hander is eyeing a return before the end of the season.

The Tigers recalled Brieske from Triple-A Toledo on Tuesday.

The right-hander will get his first look in the majors since mid-July, when Detroit sent him to Triple-A Toledo. Brieske has made eight appearances in the big leagues this year and has surrendered seven earned runs with an 8:4 K:BB over 9.1 innings.

Varsho is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the White Sox, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

Varsho will take a seat Tuesday after posting a .678 OPS while starting the previous 11 contests. Taylor Trammell will shift to center field, which opens up left for LaMonte Wade.

Hicks is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mets.

It's the third straight game against a southpaw starter that Hicks isn't starting, so he appears to be working in the strong side of a platoon at catcher. The 27-year-old has raked in 22 games since being acquired by the Rays at the trade deadline with three homers and a .947 OPS in 80 plate appearances. Nick Fortes is picking up another start behind the plate Tuesday versus New York lefty Sean Manaea.
