The Twins activated Gray from the paternity leave list Monday, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.

Gray was away from the team this past weekend in Boston as he welcomed a new child to the family. Gabriel Gonzalez was sent down to Triple-A St. Paul in a corresponding roster move.

Basallo is out of the lineup for Monday's game versus the Rays.

The left-handed-hitting Basallo will get a break as the Rays send southpaw Shane McClanahan to the bump. Adley Rutschman will do the catching, Gunnar Henderson is getting a start at designated hitter and Blaze Alexander will slide into the lineup at shortstop for the Orioles on Monday.

Mayo (back) remains out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Rays.

Mayo wasn't able to play in either leg of Sunday's doubleheader against the Tigers because of lower-back discomfort, and he'll remain out of action for Monday's series opener versus the Rays. Per Matt Weyrich of The Baltimore Sun, Orioles manager Craig Albernaz said that Mayo is feeling improved Monday and he doesn't anticipate the infielder needing a stint on the injured list. Weston Wilson will play third base and bat fifth for Baltimore.

The White Sox selected Nishida's contract from Triple-A Charlotte on Monday.

Nishida earned the promotion after slashing .323/.449/.384 with one home run and 15 stolen bases between Double-A Birmingham and Charlotte. The 25-year-old is starting in right field and batting ninth Monday versus the Twins in what will be his major-league debut.

The White Sox designated Kelenic for assignment Monday.

Kelenic got some regular run in right field with the White Sox but managed just a .226/.305/.321 batting line with a 33.9 percent strikeout rate over 19 contests. His spot on the 26-man and 40-man rosters is being absorbed by Rikuu Nishida.

The Tigers optioned Sommers to Triple-A Toledo on Monday.

Sommers served as the 27th man during Sunday's doubleheader versus the Orioles but did not appear in either game. The left-hander has collected a 3.10 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 33:11 K:BB across 20.1 innings at Toledo this season.

Pomeranz (elbow) threw a live bullpen session Saturday, per MLB.com.

Pomeranz had previously been throwing bullpens, but this was his first time facing live hitters since he landed on the injured list May 13. The Angels and Pomeranz have each stated that the reliever isn't dealing with a major issue and have expressed hope that he'll be ready to return to the team's bullpen when first eligible May 28.

Dominguez (shoulder) could be ready for a minor-league rehab assignment during the first week of June, per MLB.com.

Dominguez has been sidelined since injuring his shoulder by crashing into the outfield wall while making a catch May 7. He began taking swings off a tee May 20 and seems to be making tangible progress in his recovery. If Dominguez is indeed able to begin playing in minor-league games during the first week of June, he could return to the big-league club by the middle of the month.

Stanton (calf) is slated to undergo imaging in the next week, per MLB.com.

Stanton has been hitting and doing plyometric exercises, but he's yet to clear the big obstacle of being able to run. Should the imaging look good, the slugger could be ready for the next step in his rehab. Stanton hasn't played in a game since April 24, so he'll probably need a rehab assignment before returning to the Yankees' lineup.

McArthur (elbow) underwent surgery Friday to help combat continued soreness and inflammation, MLB.com reports.

McArthur missed all of 2025 while recovering from right elbow surgery and was considered healthy entering spring training, but he suffered a setback and has remained on the injured list with right elbow inflammation, prompting Friday's procedure. There's no timeline for the right-hander's return to action, as his recovery from the surgery and how he feels in the near future will dictate the next steps in the rehab process.
