  • Alan Roden RF | MIN

    Twins' Alan Roden: Recalled from Triple-A

    The Twins recalled Roden from Triple-A St. Paul on Tuesday, Aaron Gleeman of AaronGleeman.com reports.

    Roden missed time earlier this season with a shoulder injury but has been excellent when healthy, slashing .272/.397/.512 with eight home runs and a 24:25 BB:K over 33 games with St. Paul. The 26-year-old can handle all three outfield spots and could get some looks in center field while Byron Buxton (hip) is sidelined.

  • Robert Arias CF | CLE

    Guardians' Robert Arias: Shut down after ankle surgery

    Arias underwent surgery June 5 to address a dislocated and fractured left ankle, SI.com reports.

    The Guardians haven't provided a timeline for Arias' return, but given the nature of his injury, it wouldn't be surprising if he missed most, if not all, of what's left of the season. The 19-year-old outfielder produced a .291/.397/.462 slash line with five home runs and 21 stolen bases across 190 plate appearances in 43 games with Single-A Hill City before landing on the injured list May 30.

  • Byron Buxton CF | MIN

    Twins' Byron Buxton: Lands on IL with hip injury

    The Twins placed Buxton (hip) on the 10-day injured list Tuesday, Aaron Gleeman of AaronGleeman.com reports.

    Buxton has been in and out of the lineup over the past week with a right hip issue, and he aggravated the injury during Sunday's game against the Yankees. He will be eligible to return at the beginning of the second half, but it's unclear whether Buxton will be ready to go at that time. Ryan Kreidler will likely see the lion's share of starts in center field for Minnesota while Buxton is shelved.

  • Cooper Ingle LF | CLE

    Guardians' Cooper Ingle: Out of Cleveland lineup

    Ingle is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Twins.

    Ingle is off to a rough 2-for-21 start with 12 strikeouts in his first seven big-league contests, so he'll get a day to regroup. Steven Kwan is in left field and Rhys Hoskins is in the designated hitter slot for the Guardians.

  • Astros' Hayden Wesneski: Hits four frames in rehab start

    Wesneski (elbow) struck out three and allowed one earned run on two hits and one walk across four innings Sunday in a rehab start with Double-A Corpus Christi. He also hit a batter and threw two wild pitches.

    After tossing three shutout innings in his first rehab start in the rookie-level Florida Complex League on June 30, Wesneski jumped up a few rungs on the minor-league ladder for his second outing. Wesneski -- who is on the comeback trail after undergoing Tommy John surgery last May -- built up to 46 pitches (29 strikes) in Sunday's appearance, generating seven whiffs along the way. The right-hander will likely need to make two or three more rehab starts before coming off the 60-day injured list, but he may not have a rotation spot with the big club waiting for him once he's activated.

  • Josh Jung 3B | TEX

    Rangers' Josh Jung: Held out of Tuesday's lineup

    Jung (knee) is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Angels.

    The third baseman didn't start Sunday versus the Tigers after fouling a pitch off his knee Saturday, and he'll remain on the bench after Monday's team off day. Ezequiel Duran will shift to the hot corner in place of Jung while Josh Smith and Nicky Lopez start at second base and shortstop, respectively.

  • Astros' Jason Alexander: Shelved at Triple-A

    Triple-A Sugar Land placed Alexander on its 7-day injured list June 17 due to an unspecified injury.

    After the Astros optioned Alexander to Triple-A on May 27, the right-hander made two starts before landing on the shelf. He'll likely remain out through the All-Star break, though an official timeline for his return to the Sugar Land rotation has yet to be established. Alexander owns a 5.32 ERA and 1.61 WHIP across 44 innings at Triple-A this season.

  • Alimber Santa RP | HOU

    Astros' Alimber Santa: Up in majors

    The Astros recalled Santa from Triple-A Sugar Land on Tuesday, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

    It's a well-deserved return to the big leagues for Santa, who posted a 0.71 ERA, 0.79 WHIP and 8:5 K:BB across 12.2 frames in his first taste of the majors earlier this year. He should fill a low-leverage relief role while up with Houston.

  • Yankees' Jasson Dominguez: Not in Tuesday's lineup

    Dominguez is not in the lineup for Tuesday's contest versus the Rays.

    Dominguez had started every game since June 16, but he will begin Tuesday's festivities on the bench. Max Schuemann will cover right field in Dominguez's stead.

  • Astros' Mike Burrows: Demoted to Triple-A

    The Astros optioned Burrows to Triple-A Sugar Land on Tuesday, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

    Burrows tied a season worst with seven earned runs allowed Monday against the Nationals, giving him a 6.84 ERA and 5.9 K/9 across his past 10 appearances. The right-hander was acquired from the Pirates during the offseason after posting a 3.94 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 97:31 K:BB over 96 innings during 2025, but he'll likely need to get back on track at Sugar Land before getting another look in the Astros' rotation.
