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

The move corresponds with the Tigers activating Keider Montero (personal) from the paternity list. In three outings after being recalled by Detroit on Aug. 31, Diaz has allowed four runs on four hits and three walks while striking out three across 4.1 innings.

The Tigers activated Montero (personal) from the paternity list Monday.

Montero was briefly away from the team for the birth of his daughter, but he's back with the Tigers and is tentatively lined up to face the Blue Jays on Wednesday, per Evan Woodbery of MLive.com. Montero has a 4-3 record across his 10 starts since the All-Star break with a 3.99 ERA and 1.07 WHIP over 49.2 innings.

Larnach is dealing with left wrist soreness and will undergo an MRI to determine the severity of the injury, Aaron Gleeman of AaronGleeman.com reports.

It's unclear when the injury flared up for Larnach, who has gone 6-for-13 with two solo home runs and an additional run scored over his last three outings. The MRI will provide the Twins' medical staff with more information to determine a recovery timeline for the 29-year-old outfielder, though a stint on the IL would likely mean the end to Larnach's 2026 regular season. The Twins are starting Emmanuel Rodriguez, Walker Jenkins and Luke Keaschall from left to right in Monday's series opener against the Yankees and right-hander Will Warren.

Weathers (forearm) will throw a bullpen session Tuesday, Meredith Marakovits of YES Network reports.

It's another positive step in Weather's recovery from a left forearm flexor strain that landed him on the 15-day injured list Aug. 23. The minor-league season is drawing to a close, so the 26-year-old southpaw will need a few bullpen sessions before rejoining the Yankees, which could happen before the end of the regular season.

Lewis (shoulder) is not in the lineup for Monday's game against the Yankees.

Lewis departed Sunday's contest against the Guardians with left shoulder soreness. Victor Caratini is making the start at first base and hitting seventh against right-hander Will Warren.

Culpepper (shoulder) is not in the lineup for Monday's game against the Yankees.

Culpepper took a pitch off his back Saturday and will miss a second straight start with a shoulder contusion. Ryan Kreidler will make another start at shortstop and bat eighth against Yankees righty Will Warren.

Bieber (shoulder) will throw a side session off a mound Tuesday, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.

Bieber hasn't pitched since Aug. 20 due to shoulder inflammation, and he'll have to build his arm back up before returning to game action. The right-hander will be up against the clock to make it back in time before the end of the regular season. He underwent an MRI on Sunday to confirm that the injury was healing, and the team was encouraged by the results of his imaging, per Hazel Mae of Sportsnet. Bieber has made just 11 starts this season, posting a 4.37 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and 44:24 K:BB across 55.2 innings.

Lee is not in the lineup for Monday's game against the Blue Jays.

Lee has started 10 of 12 games this month but will take a seat for Monday's series opener. The rookie infielder has hit a rough patch at the plate in September, slashing .176/.341/.324 with three doubles, one triple, seven RBI, eight runs scored and a 9:15 BB:K across 44 plate appearances. Gleyber Torres is starting at second base, while Colt Keith mans the hot corner Monday.

The Orioles optioned Hiraldo to Triple-A Norfolk on Monday.

Hiraldo was just recalled from Norfolk on Sunday and threw 49 pitches in Sunday's 8-1 loss to the Blue Jays, surrendering four runs on two hits and four walks. Codi Heuer has been recalled from Triple-A in a corresponding move.

The Orioles recalled Heuer from Triple-A Norfolk on Monday.

Heuer was acquired from Milwaukee for cash last month after he was dealt from Cleveland to the Brewers just three days prior. The right-hander posted a 4.66 ERA, 1.76 WHIP and 6:5 K:BB across 9.2 innings of relief with the Guardians this season.
