Frazier (elbow) resumed throwing Wednesday, MLB.com reports.

Frazier has been on the shelf since early June due to right elbow inflammation. The veteran infielder has been hitting on the field, taking grounders and running for some time, and the progression to a throwing program puts him another step closer to a return. With that said, his role upon his activation is cloudy. The Angels have changed the look of their infield since Frazier's injury, with Christian Moore and Denzer Guzman both getting called up from the minors during that span and Donovan Walton putting up solid numbers while making frequent starts at second base.

Booser picked up a hold Friday against Arizona, recording the final out of the sixth inning.

After beginning the season with Triple-A Durham, Booser has since carved out a key spot in the Rays' bullpen. Through 9.1 innings thus far, the 34-year-old left-hander has a 0.96 ERA, 0.96 WHIP and 10:3 K:BB with two holds.

Wolfram picked up a hold Friday against the Nationals, striking out two in a clean eighth inning.

The 29-year-old left-hander has now turned in 23 outings with no earned runs allowed among 29 appearances this season, though he has given up multiple earned runs on three occasions. Wolfram has managed to be a fairly reliable setup man in 2026 despite having a .281 batting average against him, posting a 3.47 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 27:3 K:BB with nine holds across 23.1 innings.

Meidroth went 4-for-5 with two RBI and three runs scored in Friday's 22-1 win over the Royals.

Meidroth drove in runs in the third and seventh innings en route to his first four-hit effort of the season. It continued a solid-yet-unspectacular June for the 24-year-old, who's hitting .293 with four extra-base hits, nine RBI and 11 runs scored through 21 games this month. On the season, he's slashing .276/.340/.384 with six home runs, 27 RBI, 47 runs scored and two steals across 331 plate appearances.

Gonzalez went 3-for-4 with a home run, a double, a walk, five RBI and three runs scored in Friday's 22-1 win over the Royals.

Gonzalez launched a three-run homer in the third inning before adding a two-run single in the seventh, falling a triple shy of the cycle in the first three-hit effort of his career. The rookie has now logged back-to-back multi-hit games after entering Wednesday's contest mired in a 0-for-25 slump over his previous 10 contests. Through his first 65 major-league plate appearances, Gonzalez is slashing .228/.323/.351 with two home runs, 10 RBI and eight runs scored.

Beavers (oblique) has gone just 1-for-20 (.050) with a run scored and five walks over his first six games during his minor-league rehab assignment.

Beavers was hitless in nine at-bats with Double-A Chesapeake before having his assignment moved to Triple-A Norfolk on Wednesday, and he's gone just 1-for-11 since then. The Orioles might want to see the 24-year-old outfielder find his timing at the plate before they consider reinstating him from the injured list, so Beavers' return to the major leagues may have to wait until early July.

Vargas went 3-for-6 with a home run, a double, five RBI and two runs scored in Friday's 22-1 win over the Royals.

Vargas fell a triple shy of the cycle, driving in four runs in two third-inning at-bats before adding another RBI in the seventh. The 26-year-old has hit safely in four straight games, going 7-for-18 with three extra-base hits and six RBI during that stretch. For the year, he's slashing .246/.357/.484 with 18 homers, 50 RBI, 54 runs scored and 10 steals across 343 plate appearances.

Teel went 2-for-5 with a home run, a walk, three RBI and two runs scored in Friday's 22-1 win over the Royals.

Teel hit his first homer of the season in the fifth inning before adding an RBI single in the seventh. In three games since returning from the injured list June 22, the 24-year-old has gone 3-for-12 with one home run, three RBI, three runs scored and a 2:4 BB:K while catching and hitting in the heart of the order in each of his three starts.

Peters went 2-for-5 with a home run, a walk, six RBI and three runs scored in Friday's 22-1 win over the Royals.

Peters drove in two on a single in the third inning before launching a grand slam in the sixth. It marked a career high in RBI for the 26-year-old, who's hitting .288 with 16 RBI and 10 runs scored in 20 June contests. While he mostly sits against lefties, Peters is slashing .289/.351/.453 with four homers, 30 RBI, 28 runs scored and four steals across 226 plate appearances this season.

Sandlin (2-1) earned the win against the Royals on Friday, allowing one run on three hits and three walks with six strikeouts over six innings.

Making his first major-league appearance since June 7, Sandlin was spotted an early lead and rode it to his second career quality-start victory. In 19.1 innings with the White Sox, the 25-year-old owns a 6.05 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 20:10 K:BB. With Noah Schultz (knee) expected to reclaim his rotation spot next week, this was likely just a spot start for Sandlin.
