The Diamondbacks selected Cabrera's contract from Triple-A Reno to start Sunday's game versus the Twins.

It will be the big-league debut for the 24-year-old righty, who has pitched well between the Double-A and Triple-A levels this year with a 3.69 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 64:16 K:BB over 61 innings. Recent injuries sustained by Michael Soroka (lower body) and Ryne Nelson (elbow) could provide an opening for Cabrera to get an extended look in the rotation, especially if he acquits himself well in his MLB debut.

The Athletics selected Meneses' contract from Triple-A Las Vegas on Sunday, and he's batting sixth as the designated hitter against the Angels.

The 34-year-old will immediately enter the starting nine after getting called up for his first stint in the big leagues since 2024. Meneses has taken advantage of the hitter-friendly environment of the Pacific Coast League this year with a .348/.401/.539 slash line in 69 games.

Fry is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Astros.

Fry had drawn four consecutive starts from Saturday through Thursday, but he's been on the bench for all three games of the Guardians' weekend series in Houston. Each of those absences have come against right-handed pitchers, so Fry appears as though he'll remain in a short-side platoon role even while Jose Ramirez (hand), Angel Martinez (foot) and Chase DeLauter (ribs) are on the IL.

The Rangers recalled Corniell from Triple-A Round Rock on Sunday.

The right-hander will get a look with the Rangers for the first time this season after struggling to a 6.08 ERA, 1.72 WHIP and 19:10 K:BB across 26.2 innings with Round Rock. Corniell has primarily worked as a starter at Triple-A, but it's not yet clear if he's seen as a candidate to replace Jack Leiter (ankle) in the rotation.

Holliday (groin) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Dodgers.

Holliday will miss out at least one start after he was lifted in the eighth inning of Saturday's 3-2 win due to groin tightness, though he said that he's not overly concerned about the injury and thinks that he could play off the bench Sunday if needed, per Jake Rill of MLB.com. Jeremiah Jackson came on the replace him Saturday and will draw the start at second base in Holliday's stead in the series finale.

The Marlins transferred Ekness (calf) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Sunday.

When Ekness was initially placed on the IL on June 1 due to a right calf strain, manager Clayton McCullough indicated that the right-handed reliever would be out for approximately six weeks. Ekness' move to the 60-day IL likely pushes his absence into August. The 24-year-old posted a 1.69 ERA, 1.31 WHIP and 5:5 K:BB in 5.1 innings over six appearances for Miami prior to being injured.

The Marlins selected Navarreto's contract from Triple-A Jacksonville on Sunday.

He'll provide Miami with a second option at catcher behind Joe Mack after the Marlins moved Liam Hicks (back) to the 10-day injured list Sunday. Mack is expected to shoulder a heftier workload behind the dish while Hicks is shelved, so Navarreto may not get more than a start or two a week while he's up.

Sanoja is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Giants.

Sanoja will be held out of the starting nine for the series finale while the Marlins go with their third different third baseman in as many days. Connor Norby will get a turn at the hot corner Sunday after Sanoja and Leo Jimenez made starts at the position in the first two contests of the series.

Hernandez is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Giants.

Hernandez will be given a breather after he started in the first two games of the series and went 2-for-7 with a home run, a double, a walk and two RBI. The Marlins will go with Esteury Ruiz in left field on Sunday.

The Marlins placed Hicks on the 10-day injured list Sunday due to a lower-back strain.

Hicks was scratched from the lineup ahead of Saturday's 6-3 win over the Giants due to what was initially reported as lower-back tightness, and he'll miss at least another nine days after being diagnosed with a strain. Per Christina De Nicola of MLB.com, manager Clayton McCullough said that he believes that Hicks' injury was detected quickly enough for him to avoid an extended absence, though the skipper acknowledged that the Marlins won't known until around the middle of the week whether the 27-year-old has a chance at returning from the IL when first eligible June 30. Griffin Conine (hamstring) was reinstated from the 60-day injured list Sunday and is the most likely candidate to fill Hicks' vacated spot in the lineup.
