  • Sonny Gray SP | BOS

    Red Sox's Sonny Gray: Fans seven in sixth win

    Gray (6-1) earned the win Saturday against the Guardians, allowing one run on four hits and three walks in six innings. He struck out seven.

    For the first time since coming off the injured list with a right hamstring strain in early May, Gray managed to reach the 90-pitch marker Saturday in one of his finest performances of the year. The seven punchouts were his second-highest total of the season, and the 36-year-old right-hander spun at least six innings while yielding two runs or fewer for the fifth time in 2026. Gray will bring a steady 3.06 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 41:14 K:BB over 50 frames into his next scheduled start against the Yankees in New York.

  • Parker Messick SP | CLE

    Guardians' Parker Messick: Outstanding campaign continues

    Messick took a no-decision Saturday against the Red Sox, allowing one run on five hits and two walks in five innings. He struck out four.

    Despite matching a season low in strikeouts, Messick continued to deal for Guardians on Saturday. The 25-year-old left-hander pitched at least five innings while surrendering two runs or fewer for the 10th time already this year, having now worked at least five frames in all 12 of his starts. Messick will take an excellent 2.21 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 74:21 K:BB over 69.1 innings into his next scheduled appearance against the Rangers in Texas.

  • Spencer Miles RP | TOR

    Blue Jays' Spencer Miles: Starting Sunday vs. Baltimore

    Miles will serve as the Blue Jays' starter for Sunday's series finale against the Orioles, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.

    With the Blue Jays' rotation hit by the injury bug, manager John Schneider has utilized Miles as a bulk reliever after an opener of late. However, Miles will operate as Toronto's starter for Sunday's contest, his first start since May 10 against the Angels and second of the season. He sports a 2.16 ERA, 1.02 WHIP and 32:9 K:BB across 33.1 innings this season and has yielded just one earned run over his last four outings (15.1 frames).

  • Max Muncy 3B | ATH

    Athletics' Max Muncy: Starting rehab assignment Saturday

    Muncy (hand) will serve as the designated hitter for Triple-A Las Vegas on Saturday, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

    Muncy fractured his left hand on a hit-by-pitch in mid-April, which led to him being placed on the 10-day injured list later in the month. He started his swing progression in mid-May and has progressed enough in his recovery to embark on a rehab assignment. It's unclear how many minor-league games Muncy is expected to need before rejoining the A's, but he appears to be close to coming back from the injured list.

  • Jacob Wilson SS | ATH

    Athletics' Jacob Wilson: Closing in on rehab assignment

    Wilson (shoulder) has been ramping up his baseball activities and could begin a rehab assignment next week, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

    Wilson continues to progress in his recovery from a left shoulder injury that landed him on the 10-day injured list in mid-May. Once he's cleared for a rehab assignment, the Athletics will have a better sense of when Wilson will return to the majors. Prior to his IL stint, the 24-year-old shortstop was slashing .292/.311/.398 with two steals, three home runs and 19 RBI in 168 plate appearances.

  • Amed Rosario 3B | NYY

    Yankees' Amed Rosario: Placed on paternity list

    The Yankees placed Rosario on the paternity list prior to Saturday's game against the Athletics.

    Rosario can be away from the Yankees for up to three days while on the paternity list, meaning he'll likely be back for Tuesday's series opener against the Guardians. The veteran utility man has gone 9-for-31 (.290) with two home runs, seven RBI and six runs scored in 11 games since May 1.

  • Zachary Neto SS | LAA

    Angels' Zach Neto: Dealing with whiplash

    Neto was removed from Saturday's 14-3 win against the Rays due to whiplash, Erica Weston of Bally Sports West reports.

    Neto collided with Ian Seymour at home plate on a wild pitch in the seventh inning, which led to the former being helped off the field after being evaluated by medical staff. If Neto is unable to play in Sunday's series finale, then Oswald Peraza or Donovan Walton would likely draw the start at shortstop.

  • Orioles' Samuel Basallo: Nursing pectoral injury

    Basallo tweaked a pectoral muscle during his plate appearance in the ninth inning of Saturday's 6-5 win over the Blue Jays, Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun reports.

    Basallo sustained the injury when he struck out swinging in the ninth, though Orioles manager Craig Albernaz said after Saturday's game that Basallo would have batted again if the order came up. That could mean that Basallo will be in the lineup for Sunday's series finale against Toronto, but if he's unable to play, then Tyler O'Neill could serve as the team's designated hitter. Basallo went 1-for-2 with two walks in Saturday's win.

  • Jose Caballero SS | NYY

    Yankees' Jose Caballero: Not in Saturday's lineup

    Caballero is not in the Yankees' starting lineup against the Athletics on Saturday.

    Caballero went 2-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Friday's series opener, but he'll get a breather for Saturday night's contest. Anthony Volpe will start at shortstop and bat ninth.

  • Zachary Neto SS | LAA

    Angels' Zach Neto: Helped off field Saturday

    Neto was removed from Saturday's game against the Rays after colliding with Ian Seymour, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    Neto scored on a wild pitch during the top of the seventh inning, though he did so while colliding with pitcher Ian Seymour at the plate. Neto's head seemed to take the brunt of the impact, and he remained on the ground for a while before walking off the field with assistance. The Angels will likely put him through concussion protocol, and if he needs to spend time on the injured list, Oswald Peraza and Donovan Walton should be in the mix at shortstop.
