  • Tyler Gilbert RP | CHW

    White Sox's Tyler Gilbert: Optioned back to minors

    The White Sox optioned Gilbert to Triple-A Charlotte on Monday.

    Gilbert was up for a few days as the roster replacement for Tyler Schweitzer (paternity), but he'll head back to Charlotte now that the latter has been reinstated. The left-handed Gilbert made one appearance during his most recent stint in the majors, allowing one run on five hits over 2.1 innings Sunday in Minnesota.

  • White Sox's Tyler Schweitzer: Returns from paternity leave

    The White Sox activated Schweitzer from the paternity leave list Monday.

    Schweitzer missed the weekend series in Minnesota while welcoming a new baby to the family. The lefty reliever will be available in the bullpen for the start of a four-game set in Houston on Monday.

  • Sonny Gray SP | BOS

    Red Sox's Sonny Gray: Next start pushed to Saturday

    Gray said that he will make his next start on nine days' rest Saturday against the Orioles in Baltimore, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports.

    Gray would have lined up for two starts this week after making his most recent appearance in this past Wednesday's loss to the Marlins, but the Red Sox will instead build in some extended rest for the top arm in their rotation as the regular season winds down. The 36-year-old righty clarified Sunday that he's not dealing with any specific physical concerns, though he feels the extra time off will be beneficial in the long run. As a result of Gray being pushed back in the schedule, the Red Sox will need to add a spot starter to the mix for Tuesday's game against the Mariners.

  • Raymond Burgos RP | BOS

    Red Sox's Raymond Burgos: Returns to minors after doubleheader

    The Red Sox optioned Burgos to Triple-A Worcester on Sunday.

    Burgos was up as the 27th man on the roster for Saturday's doubleheader against the Yankees. He was knocked around for five runs over 2.1 innings in the second game of the twin bill and will now rejoin the bullpen at Worcester.

  • Nick Sogard 2B | BOS

    Red Sox's Nick Sogard: Moves to first base mid-game

    Sogard moved from second to first base in the seventh inning Sunday after Willson Contreras was removed with a hamstring injury. The former went 1-for-3 with an RBI.

    Sogard survived Sunday's roster transactions to accommodate the returns for Trevor Story and Roman Anthony. He should share second base with Andruw Monasterio for now but could lose out when Isiah Kiner-Falefa (forearm) is ready to return.

  • Trevor Story SS | BOS

    Red Sox's Trevor Story: Two hits in return

    Story started at shortstop and went 2-for-3 with a double and a run scored in Sunday's 16-1 loss to the Yankees.

    Story was activated Sunday after a lengthy stay on the injured list due to a sports hernia. He's expected to resume his role as the everyday shortstop while Boston seeks to clinch a spot in the postseason.

  • Robert Garcia RP | TEX

    Rangers' Robert Garcia: Set to begin rehab assignment

    Garcia (shoulder) is set to begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A Round Rock, MLB.com reports.

    Garcia recently came out of a live session feeling well and is ready for the next step. The report didn't specify a date for when the assignment will begin, but it did indicate the Rangers want to see him throw multiple innings and pitch on back-to-back days.

  • Carter Baumler RP | TEX

    Rangers' Carter Baumler: Will begin rehab assignment

    Baumler (intercostal) will begin a rehab assignment for Triple-A Round Rock this week, MLB.com reports.

    Baumler has been given the green light to head to Round Rock after he recently resumed facing live hitters at the Rangers' spring facility in Arizona. The Rangers want to see Baumler make appearances on consecutive days and throw multiple innings during his time in the minors before bringing him back from the 60-day injured list. The rookie Rule 5 Draft pick has been on the shelf since April 5 due to a right intercostal strain.

  • Nate Lowe 1B | CLE

    Guardians' Nathaniel Lowe: Clubs homer in win

    Lowe went 1-for-4 with a walk, a home run and three RBI in Sunday's 11-1 win over Kansas City.

    Lowe took a four-seamer from Seth Lugo on the outer half of the plate the opposite way for a two-run homer to give the Guardians a 3-0 lead in the first inning. His .237/.262/.408 slash line in a Cleveland uniform does not jump off the page, but Lowe has 15 RBI over 21 games since joining the team.

  • Chase DeLauter RF | CLE

    Guardians' Chase DeLauter: Four hits in win

    DeLauter started in right field and went 4-for-4 with two doubles, an RBI and three runs scored in Sunday's 11-1 win over the Royals.

    DeLauter, who recorded his third four-hit game, keeps chugging along deep into his rookie season. Sunday's start in right field marked his first in the field since returning from a hamstring injury; he served as the designated hitter the previous two games.
