Yesavage (4-3) earned the win Monday against the Mets, allowing one run on three hits and no walks in 6.2 innings. He struck out three.

Yesavage had a hard time finding the zone, matching a season low in punchouts while tossing just 57 of his 94 offerings for strikes, but he hung in there for a strong outing overall. The 22-year-old right-hander remains incredibly difficult to hit, giving up fewer than six knocks in each of his first 12 starts for a .185 opponent batting average. Yesavage is slated to finish a two-start week this weekend in Seattle, where he'll bring a 3.34 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 61:30 K:BB over 67.1 innings.

The Yankees announced that Chisholm has been placed in concussion protocol after exiting Monday's game against the Tigers in the fourth inning following a collision with teammate Jasson Dominguez.

He struck out in his lone at-bat before leaving the game. The Yankees haven't confirmed that Chisholm sustained a concussion, but he'll need to pass all the steps of the league's protocol before returning to the diamond. Oswaldo Cabrera came off the bench to replace Chisholm at second base Monday, though Amed Rosario and Jose Caballero could also factor into the mix for playing time at the position if Chisholm misses additional time.

Tiger (elbow) has allowed four earned runs on six hits and no walks while striking out six batters over 3.2 innings in two appearances for High-A Hub City since being reinstated from the 60-day injured list June 21.

Tiger turned in a 2.70 ERA, 0.90 WHIP and 14:2 K:BB across 6.2 frames over four rehab appearances in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League before being cleared to make his 2026 debut for Hub City. The right-hander missed the entire 2025 season after undergoing an internal brace procedure on his right elbow in September 2024.

Thomas will start in left field and bat fifth in Monday's game against the Dodgers.

The right-handed-hitting Thomas will stick in the lineup for a third straight game while the Athletics face another lefty starter (Eric Lauer), but the 25-year-old could begin to get more looks versus right-handed pitching, too. The Athletics deactivated Tyler Soderstrom (hip) and Jacob Wilson (thumb) on Monday, with the two joining Brent Rooker (knee) and Zack Gelof (hand) on a growing injured list. Thomas could end up serving as the primary replacement in left field for Soderstrom, though the Athletics might prefer to give Carlos Cortes another look in a strong-side platoon run.

Gomez (shoulder) was activated from the 7-day injured list June 20.

Gomez missed nearly two months of action while on the mend from a right shoulder strain. He's made two appearances for Triple-A Columbus since being activated, surrendering two runs on five hits and two walks while striking out 14 over eight innings.

McNeil is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Dodgers.

With a lefty (Eric Lauer) on the bump for the Dodgers, the left-handed-hitting McNeil will be given a break after he started in each of the Athletics' last five games. Joshua Kuroda-Grauer will replace McNeil at second base and will bat ninth.

Williams will start at shortstop and bat eighth in Monday's game against the Dodgers.

Williams will cover shortstop for a fifth straight game after going 4-for-15 with three runs and two RBI over the previous four contests while filling in for Jacob Wilson (thumb). With the Athletics moving Wilson to the injured list Monday, Williams' run atop the depth chart could be extended, though he'll have to fend off Tripe-A Las Vegas call-ups Darell Hernaiz and Joshua Kuroda-Grauer for playing time.

Chisholm was removed from Monday's game against the Tigers in the fourth inning after a collision with teammate Jasson Dominguez, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports. He struck out in his lone plate appearance before leaving the game.

Chisholm was down on the ground for a while following the collision and then was evaluated by team trainers while he was taking a knee. He appeared to be getting checked for a concussion after his head made contact with Dominguez's elbow. Oswaldo Cabrera came off the bench to step in at second base in place of Chisholm, who can be viewed as day-to-day until the Yankees provide an update on the nature of his injury.

Diaz is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Twins.

Diaz will get a breather for the series opener after he started in each of the Astros' last three games. Christian Vazquez will handle catching duties Monday.

Walton isn't in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Mariners.

Walton will retreat to the bench for Monday's series opener after also getting the day off Sunday. This will give Oswald Peraza a second straight start at the keystone.
