Tromp signed a minor-league contract with the Orioles on Tuesday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Tromp elected free agency after clearing waivers Tuesday, but after spending less than a day on the open market, he'll return to his previous organization. The 30-year-old backstop has slashed .254/.338/.413 through 71 plate appearances in Triple-A this year.

Holman will start Tuesday's game against the Twins.

The right-hander will make the first start of his MLB career Tuesday as an opener. Holman has a 4.74 ERA, 1.47 WHIP and 14:7 K:BB across 19 innings this season and should hand things off to the bullpen after an inning or two.

Wilson isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Twins.

After going 8-for-18 with two RBI and a run scored during his four-game hitting streak, Wilson will grab a seat on the bench Tuesday while Max Schuemann starts at shortstop.

Sosa is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Tigers.

Sosa started the previous 12 games and will take a seat Tuesday after batting .304 (14-for-46) with three doubles, a homer, six RBI and three runs during that stretch. Chase Meidroth will shift to the keystone while Vinny Capra receives a start at shortstop.

Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Tuesday that he's optimistic Dominguez's left thumb injury is "just a couple of days thing," Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

Dominguez's thumb is swollen after he jammed it while stealing a base in Sunday's game versus the Dodgers, but the injury "seems like it's gotten better every day," per Boone. The rookie outfielder is not in Tuesday's lineup against the Guardians but is considered day-to-day.

Santander will rest for 5-to-7 days after receiving a platelet-rich plasma injection in his injured left shoulder, Mitch Bannon of The Athletic reports.

Santander landed on the 10-day injured list this past Friday with a shoulder injury that had been nagging at him for a while. The hope is that the PRP injection will help speed along the recovery process and that he will be ready to resume throwing and ramping up after a brief shutdown period.

Garcia is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rays.

It's the fourth consecutive absence for Garcia after manager Bruce Bochy said Friday that he's giving the outfielder a "mental break." The skipper later indicated that the Rangers will give Garcia as many days off as necessary to help him get back in form, so it's unclear when he'll be back in the lineup. The 32-year-old has a .627 OPS this season but particularly struggled in May with a .189/.224/.333 slash line and 29.6 percent strikeout rate in 26 games.

Scherzer (thumb) will either pitch in a Florida Complex League game or throw a simulated game this weekend, Mitch Bannon of The Athletic reports.

Scherzer had a successful 40-pitch live batting-practice session Tuesday and is ready to take the next step in his rehab. If things go well this weekend, he could be cleared for a formal rehab assignment. A return before the end of June appears possible, but Scherzer still has some hoops to jump through. He's working his way back from right thumb inflammation.

Crawford's (knee) rehab assignment is being delayed due to wrist pain, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.

Crawford had been set to make a rehab start this week after recovering from right patellar tendinopathy, but now he has a new injury to contend with. The right-hander will be in Boston on Wednesday to undergo tests.

The Red Sox recalled Kelly from Triple-A Worcester on Tuesday, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.

Kelly has been touched up for 12 runs (11 earned) over 12 innings for the Red Sox this season. He'll provide the bullpen with a fresh arm.
