Angel Martinez LF | CLE
Guardians' Angel Martinez: Heading to bench Monday
Martinez is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Angels.
He'll hit the bench after he went 1-for-13 with an RBI and a run while starting all three games of the Guardians' series with the Twins over the weekend. With Martinez taking a seat, the Guardians will roll out an outfield of Steven Kwan, Daniel Schneemann and Chase DeLauter from left to right.

Yankees' Aaron Judge: Slugs 16th homer Sunday
Judge went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in a loss to the Brewers on Sunday.
Judge put New York ahead early with a solo blast to right field in the first inning. It was his fourth homer through 10 games so far in May and his 16th overall this season, tied with Kyle Schwarber for the MLB lead. Judge also ranks third in the league in OPS (1.043), is tied for sixth in RBI (30) and ranks sixth in walks (32).

Sam Bachman RP | LAA
Angels' Sam Bachman: Notches seventh hold
Bachman recorded a hold against Toronto on Sunday, retiring the only batter he faced in the eighth inning.
Bachman was called upon in the eighth frame with two outs after the Blue Jays loaded the bases on a trio of singles. The right-hander faced an imposing task with Vladimir Guerrero Jr. at the plate, but Bachman was able to get Toronto's star slugger to ground out. Bachman's usage Sunday was indicative of the high-leverage role he's moved into this season -- he leads the Angels with seven holds, which is almost twice as many as he accumulated over his first two MLB campaigns combined. Bachman has earned manager Kurt Suzuki's trust by putting up a 3.32 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 21:10 K:BB over 19 innings spanning 14 appearances.

Henry Bolte CF | ATH
Athletics' Henry Bolte: Moving up to big leagues
The Athletics are expected to call up Bolte from Triple-A Las Vegas ahead of Tuesday's game against the Cardinals, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.
With shortstop Jacob Wilson suffering a shoulder sprain in Sunday's loss to the Orioles that could send him to the injured list, Bolte looks like he could end up being promoted in a corresponding move to fill the open roster spot. Though he won't be a potential replacement option at shortstop for Wilson, Bolte could push the struggling Lawrence Butler (.560 OPS in 133 plate appearances) for regular playing time in the outfield. The 22-year-old Bolte has been one of the Pacific Coast League's hottest hitters through the first month and a half of the season, slashing .348/.418/.658 with 12 home runs and 17 stolen bases across 177 plate appearances.

Christian Moore LF | LAA
Angels' Christian Moore: Returns from IL at Triple-A
Triple-A Salt Lake activated Moore (leg) from the 7-day injured list Monday.
Moore has been cleared to return to action after missing more than two weeks with a leg injury. The 23-year-old has offered a mixed bag at Salt Lake this season, slashing .219/.437/.452 with two home runs, four stolen bases and a 28:24 BB:K over 21 contests. The Angels remain unsettled at second base, so Moore could push for a promotion if he gets hot.

Dustin Harris LF | HOU
White Sox's Dustin Harris: Back with ChiSox on MiLB deal
The White Sox signed Harris to a minor-league contract Monday, James Fegan of SoxMachine.com reports.
It's a return to the organization Harris started with this season before he went from the White Sox to the Astros via waivers last month. In 17 games this season between both stops, Harris has slashed .233/.333/.302 with no home runs, four stolen bases and a 6:7 BB:K. He will report to Triple-A Charlotte.

Yimi Garcia RP | TOR
Blue Jays' Yimi Garcia: Starts up rehab assignment
Garcia (elbow) made his first rehab appearance Thursday in the rookie-level Florida Complex League, recording two outs while giving up one earned run on two hits.
Garcia took the hill for his first game action since July 2, 2025, after he closed last season on Toronto's injured list due to an ankle sprain and then right elbow discomfort caused by scar tissue, which he had cleaned up through surgery in September. The 35-year-old was limited during spring training while rebounding from the procedure, but after facing hitters without issue over the past few weeks, he received clearance to begin a rehab assignment. Garcia could need most of the 30-day rehab window to round into form and knock off rust, so he may not be an option for the Toronto bullpen until late May or early June.

Connor Seabold RP | KC
Tigers' Connor Seabold: Starts up rehab assignment
Seabold (ankle) struck out two and gave up one hit and no walks over a scoreless inning in his rehab appearance Friday with Single-A Lakeland.
The Tigers placed Seabold on the 15-day injured list April 26 due to left ankle inflammation, but he shouldn't require an extended rehab assignment before making his return from the shelf. The right-hander projects to serve as a multi-inning option out of the Detroit bullpen once he's activated.

Osvaldo Bido RP | CHW
White Sox's Osvaldo Bido: Clears waivers
The White Sox outrighted Bido to Triple-A Charlotte on Saturday.
Bido cleared waivers after being designated for assignment Friday and appears poised to stick around in the organization as a swingman depth at the Triple-A level. Between big-league stops with Atlanta and Chicago this season, the 30-year-old right-hander delivered a 6.27 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 11:10 K:BB over 18.2 innings in 11 appearances out of the bullpen.

Ricky Tiedemann SP | TOR
Blue Jays' Ricky Tiedemann: Still being brought along slowly
Tiedemann (elbow) isn't yet facing live hitters, Mitch Bannon of The Athletic reports.
While an earlier report said the 23-year-old southpaw has been cleared for mound work in late April, it doesn't look like Tiedemann's throwing program has progressed much past that point yet. He missed all of 2025 after Tommy John surgery and was shut down this spring due to further elbow soreness, so the Blue Jays' caution with him is understandable. Tiedemann likely won't be a factor for the big-league staff until the second half of the season at the earliest.
