Kremer did not factor into the decision Thursday against the Twins, allowing two runs on three hits and two walks across seven innings. He struck out eight.

Kremer has now gone seven innings in back-to-back starts, allowing just two runs on six hits in that span. After a rough start to the year, the 29-year-old right-hander looks to be turning things around. His ERA now sits at 5.24 through eight outings (44.2 innings) with a 1.28 WHIP and 30:11 K:BB. Kremer is currently lined up for a rematch with the Twins at home in his next start.

Lowe is absent from the lineup for Thursday's game versus the Phillies, Ryan Bass of FanDuel Sports Network Sun reports.

Lowe plays against most lefties -- including each of the previous two times the Rays have faced a southpaw -- but he will take a seat in this one against left-hander Jesus Luzardo. Curtis Mead will occupy second base and bat sixth.

Simpson is absent from the lineup for Thursday's game versus the Phillies, Ryan Bass of FanDuel Sports Network Sun reports.

Tough southpaw Jesus Luzardo is on the bump for the Phillies, so the Rays will give the lefty-hitting Simpson a breather. They are starting fellow left-handed-swinging Kameron Misner in center field for the series finale.

Ryan (illness) will start Saturday's game against the Giants, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.

Ryan had been slated to take the ball Thursday versus the Orioles but was scratched due to illness. However, he was able to throw a bullpen session Thursday and will be all systems go Saturday at Target Field against the Giants. Chris Paddack will draw the start in the series opener Friday.

Tauchman (hamstring) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Charlotte on Saturday, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

Tauchman is ready to play in games again after missing nearly a month of action with a Grade 2 right hamstring strain. The veteran outfielder has been limited to just three games this season due to injuries but should be ready to rejoin the White Sox sometime next week if all goes well.

Workman (hip) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Charlotte on Friday, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

Workman had made just one start for the White Sox before going down with a right hip flexor strain earlier this month. However, he has been cleared for games again and could be activated close to when he's first eligible Sunday.

Lee (ankle) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Charlotte on Friday, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

Lee has missed the last month of action with a left ankle sprain but is ready to test things out in a game setting. With Edgar Quero now with the big club, Lee is not guaranteed to be added to the major-league roster once he's deemed physically ready.

The Tigers recalled Montero from Triple-A Toledo to serve as their 27th man for Thursday's doubleheader against the Rockies.

Montero's last MLB appearance came during a spot start in a doubleheader April 26, and he'll be called upon to start the nightcap again Thursday. The 24-year-old righty owns a 5.93 ERA through 13.2 innings with the Tigers this season and will likely head back to Toledo once his 27th-man duties are completed.

Single-A Lakeland placed Wilson on the full-season injured list May 5 with an undisclosed injury.

The No. 76 overall pick in 2023, Wilson walked more batters than he struck out last year while pitching only in the Florida Complex League as a 19-year-old. He struck out 11 and walked six in 6.1 innings through three appearances before suffering the season-ending injury.

Dingler is out of the lineup for the first game of Thursday's doubleheader in Colorado.

Tomas Nido will handle the catching duties for the first game of the day, but Dingler is expected to be back behind the plate for the nightcap.
