Jakob Marsee CF | MIA
Marlins' Jakob Marsee: Exits game with knee contusion
Marsee was removed from Sunday's game against the Athletics due to a right knee contusion, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports. He went 1-for-1 with two runs scored before leaving the game.
Marsee was hit in the right kneecap by a pitch from Gage Jump in the third inning. The outfielder initially stayed in the game to run the bases but was replaced by Griffin Conine in the bottom of the frame. The good news for Marsee is that X-rays came back negative, and with the Marlins having an off-day Monday, he may not miss time and could be in the lineup for Tuesday's series opener against the Mariners.

Joe Ryan SP | MIN
Twins' Joe Ryan: Brilliant in sixth win
Ryan (6-5) notched the win Sunday against the Yankees, allowing no runs on three hits and one walk in seven innings. He struck out nine.
Ryan dazzled at Yankee Stadium on Sunday, scattering three singles across seven shutout innings and registering an impressive 17 whiffs. The nine punchouts tied a season high for the All-Star right-hander, who regained his form in a big way after yielding 10 runs over his prior two starts. Ryan is set to take a strong 3.36 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 122:23 K:BB over 104.1 innings into a favorable home matchup versus the Angels.

Ryan Weathers SP | NYY
Yankees' Ryan Weathers: Can't escape fifth inning
Weathers (3-7) took the loss Sunday against the Twins, allowing four runs on six hits and two walks in four-plus innings. He struck out six.
Weathers appeared to find a bit of a stride after Minnesota plated an opening-inning run, tossing two scoreless innings thereafter, but he gave up three more runs across the fourth and fifth frames. The 26-year-old southpaw has been erratic lately, surrendering at least four runs in four of his past seven outings. Weathers will be searching for some consistency during his next scheduled appearance in Washington, and he currently holds a 4.29 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 104:27 K:BB over 92.1 innings.

Landon Knack RP | LAD
Dodgers' Landon Knack: Third rehab start on tap
Knack (intercostal) will make his third rehab start Sunday with Triple-A Oklahoma City.
During his most recent outing Tuesday, Knack built up to 2.2 innings and 50 pitches (30 strikes) while striking out four batters and allowing no runs on one hit and one walk. He'll look to build up his pitch count a bit more Sunday and will likely require one more rehab start beyond that before potentially returning from the 60-day injured list coming out of the All-Star break. The Dodgers aren't expected to have a rotation spot available for Knack, but he could join the big club as a long reliever if he isn't optioned to Triple-A upon his activation from the IL.

Yusei Kikuchi SP | LAA
Angels' Yusei Kikuchi: Tosses first bullpen
Kikuchi (shoulder) threw a bullpen session Sunday, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.
Kikuchi has been sidelined since late April due to left shoulder inflammation, which led to him being transferred to the 60-day injured list May 22. He was cleared to resume throwing in late June and has taken the next step in his recovery by tossing his first bullpen session since the injury. Barring any setbacks, Kikuchi will likely return to the Angels' rotation following the All-Star break, though a clearer timeline will be established once he's given the green light to embark on a rehab assignment.

Enrique Hernandez 3B | LAD
Dodgers' Enrique Hernandez: Takes live ABs on Sunday
Hernandez (oblique) took live batting practice against rehabbing teammate Edwin Diaz (elbow) on Sunday, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.
Hernandez's ability to face live pitching about five and a half weeks after suffering what the Dodgers termed as a "significant tear" of his left oblique represents a major step forward in his recovery process. The Dodgers will likely check back in with Hernandez on Monday before mapping out his next steps in the recovery process, but he could soon be ready to head out on a minor-league rehab assignment. Hernandez isn't on track to be activated from the 10-day injured list prior to the All-Star break but looks to have a shot at rejoining the Dodgers before the end of July.

Blake Treinen RP | LAD
Dodgers' Blake Treinen: Cleared to play catch
The Dodgers announced Thursday that Treinen (elbow) has resumed playing catch, per MLB.com.
Treinen is working his way through a throwing program after landing on the injured list June 20 due to right elbow inflammation, but the Dodgers aren't counting on him to return until after the All-Star break. Once he's activated, Treinen will likely handle a middle-innings or setup role out of the Los Angeles bullpen.

Eddy Yean RP | WAS
Nationals' Eddy Yean: Sent back to Triple-A
The Nationals optioned Yean to Triple-A Rochester following Sunday's 11-5 loss to the Pirates.
Yean was recalled from Triple-A prior to Sunday's game. He was brought in for the third inning and looked good in his major-league debut, allowing one walk and zero hits while striking out three across two scoreless frames. Yean will head back to Rochester but could return to the majors when the Nationals need more right-handed depth out of the bullpen.

Martin Perez SP | ATL
Braves' Martin Perez: Expected to go on IL
Atlanta manager Walt Weiss said after Sunday's 10-9 loss to the Mets that Perez will likely be placed on the 15-day injured list, despite X-rays on the left-hander's forearm coming back negative, Chad Bishop of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
Perez departed his start in the fifth inning after he was hit in the pitching arm by a 92-mph line drive off the bat of Juan Soto. The southpaw was dealt a third straight loss after allowing five runs (four earned) on six hits and two walks while striking out one batter across 4.1 innings. A minimum-length stint on the IL would have Perez back in Atlanta's rotation just after the All-Star break, though he's without a precise timeline to return for the moment.

Woo-Suk Go RP | MIN
Twins' Woo-suk Go: Sent to Minnesota
The Twins acquired Go from the Tigers on Sunday in exchange for cash considerations, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.
Go opened the season in Double-A Erie before being promoted to Triple-A Toledo in early May. Across 19 outings at Triple-A, he has posted a 2.60 ERA, 0.99 WHIP, two saves and a 32:11 K:BB across 27.2 innings. The 27-year-old righty has yet to make his MLB debut, but he should get the chance to do so soon; Dan Hayes of The Athletic relays that Go will be added to the 40-man roster and formally added to the 26-man active roster Tuesday.
