Rivero isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game versus Seattle, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

Rivero started three straight games behind the plate upon coming up from Triple-A Salt Lake on Monday, going 3-for-11 with two RBI and three runs scored in the process. He'll now receive a day off with Travis d'Arnaud set to catch for Jose Soriano.

Arias (wrist) isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game versus Kansas City.

Arias is expected to play through his wrist injury to help the Guardians push for a spot in the postseason, but not before he misses a third consecutive start Thursday. Brayan Rocchio will fill in at shortstop in Arias' absence, putting Daniel Schneemann at second base and opening a spot in the lineup for George Valera to serve as Cleveland's designated hitter.

Seymour (3-2) took the loss Thursday against the White Sox, allowing three runs on five hits and two walks across 5.1 innings. He struck out five.

It's the second straight loss for Seymour, who gave up five runs (though just one earned) over four innings in a relief appearance against the Guardians last Friday. Despite his recent stumble, Seymour has been solid when working in the rotation, allowing just four earned runs across 15.1 innings in three starts. The left-hander is currently lined up to face the Blue Jays at home his next time out, should Tampa elect to keep Seymour in the rotation.

Smith (6-7) earned the win Thursday over the Rays, allowing four hits and a walk across 5.2 scoreless innings. He struck out four.

It's the third win in four starts for Smith, who's posted a 2.25 ERA with a 0.71 WHIP in that span (24 innings). Overall, the rookie right-hander sports a 3.78 ERA with a 1.18 WHIP and 122:53 K:BB in 26 starts (131 innings) this season. Smith will look to keep rolling in his next outing, tentatively scheduled for next week at home against the Orioles.

Javier (1-3) took the loss Thursday against Toronto, allowing four runs on six hits and a walk over six innings. He struck out six.

Javier got off to a rocky start Thursday, allowing two runs in the opening inning before giving up a leadoff homer to Davis Schneider in the second. Javier would eventually settle in and hold the Jays to one run over his final four frames, though he'd ultimately come away with the loss in a 6-0 defeat. In six starts since rejoining Houston's rotation, the 28-year-old Javier's posted a 4.78 ERA with a 1.29 WHIP and 26:13 K:BB across 26.1 innings. He's currently scheduled to face the Rangers at home in his next outing.

Gausman (10-10) earned the win in a complete-game shutout of the Astros on Thursday, allowing just two hits and a walk while striking out nine.

It was a spectacular performance from Gausman, who held the Astros to a pair of singles while throwing exactly 100 pitches in his first complete game since July of 2024. The 34-year-old Gausman has been rolling of late, giving up just two runs over 24 innings in his last three starts, posting a 24:2 K:BB in that span. His ERA is down to 3.44 on the year with a 1.00 WHIP and 171 strikeouts through 29 starts (177.2 innings). Gausman is currently lined up to face the Rays on the road in his next outing.

The Angels placed Detmers on the 15-day injured list Thursday with left elbow inflammation.

Detmers had to depart Wednesday's game against the Twins due to the injury after not liking how the ball was coming out of his hand. The injury may end the southpaw's campaign as he won't be eligible to return until the final series of the season. In a corresponding move, the Angels recalled Chase Silseth from Triple-A Salt Lake.

The Angels recalled Silseth from Triple-A Salt Lake on Thursday.

The moves comes as the Angels place Reid Detmers (elbow) on the 15-day injured list. Silseth appeared in one game for Triple-A Salt Lake after his demotion Sunday, in which he allowed no runs on two hits in one inning.

The Rockies recalled Rolison from Triple-A Albuquerque on Thursday.

The Rockies sent Rolison down to the minors Sept. 3, but he'll now return to the big leagues to replace Luis Peralta, who landed on the injured list Thursday with a hip injury. The 28-year-old Rolison carries a 7.15 ERA and 1.82 WHIP through 39 frames in the bigs this season and isn't likely to pitch in high-leverage situations anytime soon.

The Rockies placed Peralta on the 15-day injured list Thursday, retroactive to Monday, with left hip inflammation.

Peralta has struggled mightily in the majors this season, posting a 10.80 ERA and 2.40 WHIP across 16.2 innings alongside a 14:16 K:BB. The 24-year-old will be eligible to return before the end of the season, but the Rockies likely won't be in a rush to bring him back based on his performance and the fact that they are firmly out of contention for a postseason spot. Ryan Rolison was recalled from Triple-A in a corresponding move.
