    Blue Jays' Andres Gimenez: Not in Sunday's lineup

    Gimenez is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Yankees, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.

    Gimenez started the previous 20 games and will receive a day off after posting a .185/.243/.292 slash line during that stretch. Davis Schneider is manning the keystone in Sunday's series finale for Toronto.

  • Bryce Jarvis RP | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Bryce Jarvis: Sent to Reno

    The Diamondbacks optioned Jarvis to Triple-A Reno after Saturday's game against the Red Sox.

    Jarvis will lose his spot on the active roster as Anthony DeSclafani (thumb) is reinstated from the injured list. Jarvis allowed four runs without recording an out Saturday. He appeared in three games during his latest MLB stint, yielding seven runs across 6.1 innings.

  • Josh Sborz RP | TEX

    Rangers' Josh Sborz: Won't return in 2025

    Rangers manager Bruce Bochy said Sunday that Sborz (shoulder) has been shut down for the remainder of the season, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    He'll go the entire 2025 season without pitching in the majors, with Bochy noting that the decision not to activate Sborz from the 60-day injured list stems from the right-hander not being able to consistently reach his expected velocity coming off the shoulder surgery he underwent last November. With a full offseason to rest and ramp up, Sborz should be a full participant at the start of spring training.

  • Dodgers' Teoscar Hernandez: On bench Sunday

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

    Hernandez started the previous four games but will hit the bench Sunday while in the midst of a 6-for-45 (.133) slump. Alex Call is starting in right field Sunday, which could be a more common occurrence down the stretch if Hernandez continues to flounder at the plate.

  • Carl Edwards RP | DET

    Rangers' Carl Edwards: Joining big-league club

    The Rangers selected Edwards' contract from Triple-A Round Rock on Sunday, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Edwards inked a minor-league deal with the Rangers on July 22, and after posting a 5.31 ERA in eight appearances (seven starts) at Round Rock, he'll join the active roster. The 34-year-old started the season in the Angels' organization and logged a 1.54 ERA in 11.2 innings with their Triple-A affiliate before electing free agency in May.

  • Andy Pages CF | LAD

    Dodgers' Andy Pages: Taking seat Sunday

    Pages is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Orioles.

    Pages has gone 2-for-16 with eight strikeouts over the past four contests, and he'll head to the bench Sunday after a run of 76 consecutive starts. Enrique Hernandez will take over in center field for the series finale in Baltimore.

  • Rangers' Caleb Boushley: DFA'd by Rangers

    The Rangers designated Boushley for assignment Sunday, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Boushley made four appearances after being recalled from Triple-A Round Rock on Aug. 27, allowing nine runs (six earned) with a 5:1 K:BB across 3.2 innings. Texas selected Carl Edwards' contract in a corresponding move. Boushley owns a 6.02 ERA in 43.1 innings with the Rangers this season.

  • Josh H. Smith LF | TOR

    Rangers' Josh Smith: On bench Sunday

    Smith is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against Houston.

    With lefty Framber Valdez on the hill for the Astros, the left-handed-hitting Smith will get the day off after starting in each of the previous seven games. Ezequiel Duran will cover shortstop in Smith's stead.

  • Colin Selby RP | BAL

    Orioles' Colin Selby: Rehab assignment pending

    Selby (hamstring) is expected to begin a rehab assignment this week, Rich Dubroff of BaltimoreBaseball.com reported Sunday.

    Selby has been on the shelf with a strained left hamstring since July 29. It's unclear how many rehab outings the 27-year-old reliever will require before being reinstated from the IL, but it seems as though he'll be healthy before the end of the regular season. In nine appearances with the Orioles in 2025, Selby logged a 4.09 ERA with a 12:2 K:BB across 11 innings.

  • Max Muncy 3B | LAD

    Dodgers' Max Muncy: Set for Monday return

    Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said that Muncy (oblique) is expected to be activated from the 10-day injured list ahead of Monday's game against the Rockies, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

    Muncy has been on the IL since Aug. 15 due to a right oblique strain and had his recovery program briefly slowed down by an illness, but he looks ready to rejoin the big club after playing three rehab games with Triple-A Oklahoma City from Thursday through Saturday while going 2-for-7 with two walks and a run. Enrique Hernandez and Miguel Rojas have been sharing work at third base of late, but Muncy should step back in as an everyday option at the position once he's activated.
