  • Yordan Alvarez DH | HOU

    Astros' Yordan Alvarez: Back in lineup Tuesday

    Alvarez (undisclosed) will start at designated hitter and bat third in Tuesday's game versus the Tigers.

    Alvarez was pulled from Monday's game with an undisclosed injury after hitting a single in the bottom of the seventh inning. Whatever he was dealing with evidently was not a big deal, as he will not have to miss any starts.

  • Mariners' Gregory Santos: Transferred to 60-day IL

    Santos (knee) was transferred to the 60-day injured list by Seattle on Tuesday.

    Santos is dealing with right knee inflammation. The Mariners needed his 40-man roster spot in order to select Samad Taylor's contract from Triple-A Tacoma.

  • Cam Smith RF | HOU

    Astros' Cam Smith: Not in Houston lineup

    Smith is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's contest against the Tigers.

    Smith is just 4-for-22 at the plate since his two-homer game April 18 and is now out of the lineup for the third time across the Astros' last six tilts. Zach Dezenzo is in right field and batting seventh for Houston.

  • Dylan Moore 1B | PHI

    Mariners' Dylan Moore: Placed on IL with hip inflammation

    The Mariners placed Moore on the 10-day injured list with right hip inflammation.

    It's another blow to the Mariners' infield depth after Ryan Bliss suffered a torn biceps earlier in April. It's unclear when Moore suffered the injury, but it doesn't sound like a long-term issue. Moore has been one of Seattle's top hitters this season, slashing .286/.346/.557 with six home runs, nine RBI, 16 runs scored and five stolen bases. Leo Rivas and Miles Mastrobuoni are candidates to see more playing time for the Mariners.

  • Samad Taylor LF | SD

    Mariners' Samad Taylor: Promoted to big club

    The Mariners selected Taylor's contract from Triple-A Tacoma on Tuesday.

    In order to add Taylor to the 40-man roster, the Mariners transferred right-hander Gregory Santos (knee) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL. Taylor will take over the 26-man active roster spot of infielder/outfielder Dylan Moore (hip), who was placed on the 10-day injured list. Taylor has appeared in 34 career games in the big leagues, slashing .215/.288/.277 with no home runs, four RBI and eight stolen bases.

  • Jonny DeLuca RF | TB

    Rays' Jonny DeLuca: Suffers minor setback

    Rays manager Kevin Cash said that DeLuca will be shut down for 3-to-5 days due to mild soreness in his right shoulder after throwing and swinging a bat, Ryan Bass of FanDuel Sports Network Sun reports.

    If he feels better following the brief shutdown period, DeLuca will be allowed to resume his rehab. DeLuca doesn't seem to be dealing with a significant setback at this time, but the outfielder certainly will not be activated from the 10-day injured list anytime soon. Chandler Simpson has been operating as the Rays' primary center fielder of late.

  • Joshua Lowe LF | LAA

    Rays' Josh Lowe: Could be ready for rehab Saturday

    Lowe (oblique) could begin a rehab assignment with the Rays' rookie-level Florida Complex League affiliate as soon as Saturday, Ryan Bass of FanDuel Sports Network Sun reports.

    Lowe took batting practice on the field Tuesday and the team is "super encouraged" with the outfielder's progress, per manager Kevin Cash. If he continues to trend in the right direction, Lowe might be cleared to play in rehab games this weekend. Lowe is recovering from a right oblique strain that he suffered Opening Day.

  • Roman Anthony LF | BOS

    Red Sox's Roman Anthony: Good to go Tuesday

    Anthony (foot) is starting in left field and batting leadoff for Triple-A Worcester on Tuesday, Tommy Cassell of the Worcester Telegram & Gazette reports.

    The 20-year-old exited Friday's contest after fouling a pitch off his foot and didn't play the rest of the weekend, but he's ready for action after Monday's team off day. Anthony was seeing his first outfield action of the season Friday after being limited to serving as the designated hitter due to shoulder inflammation. Despite the injury, he's been crushing the ball early in 2025 with five homers and a 1.039 OPS through 23 games.

  • Yankees' Jasson Dominguez: Absent from Tuesday's lineup

    Dominguez is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game in Baltimore.

    The red-hot Trent Grisham continues to get run in center field, and this time he's starting at the expense of Dominguez. Cody Bellinger will shift over to left field for the Yankees on Tuesday.

  • Ryan O'Hearn 1B | PIT

    Orioles' Ryan O'Hearn: Taking seat versus southpaw

    O'Hearn is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's game versus the Yankees.

    O'Hearn rarely starts against left-handed pitching, and he will begin Tuesday's contest on the bench as the Yankees send southpaw Carlos Rodon to the bump. Ryan Mountcastle is in the designated hitter spot, and Emmanuel Rivera will play first base.
