The Yankees placed Castro on the 15-day injured list Tuesday, retroactive to Monday, with right elbow neuritis.

The Yankees recalled Hanner from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday.

Hanner is set for his first career big-league stint after being called up to the Yankees on Tuesday. With Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, the 27-year-old owns a 6-2 record, 2.10 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 61:24 K:BB in 51.1 innings this season. The Yankees sent Kervin Castro (elbow) to the 15-day injured list to make room for Hanner in the bullpen.

Perdomo (knee) is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rockies.

Perdomo was removed from Monday's game against Colorado with left knee soreness and needs another day to recover. With Perdomo on the bench, Ildemaro Vargas is starting at shortstop and batting eighth Tuesday.

Naylor is out of the lineup Tuesday against the Yankees due to right wrist soreness, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.

Naylor tweaked the wrist on a swing during the Mariners' previous homestand and will get the night off Tuesday versus Yankees lefty Ryan Weathers. Weston Wilson is starting at first base and batting eighth for Seattle. Since the All-Star break, Naylor is slashing .312/.376/.455 with five doubles, two homers, six RBI, nine runs scored, five stolen bases and a 7:10 BB:K across 85 plate appearances.

Young is not in Tuesday's lineup against Atlanta.

Despite going 2-for-4 with two RBI and a run scored during Monday's series opener, Young will ride the pine Tuesday. Gabriel Arias will make his first start at first base and bat ninth for the Mets.

The Astros optioned Meyers to Triple-A Sugar Land on Tuesday, Julia Morales of Space City Home Network reports.

With Nelson Velazquez joining Houston, Meyers is the odd man out in the outfield mix. After hitting .292 with a .727 OPS in 2025, Meyers has appeared in 54 games with the Astros this season but has slashed an ugly .213/.268/.326 with three homers, 11 RBI, 15 runs scored, one stolen base and a 10:31 BB:K across 153 plate appearances.

The Rockies recalled Veen from Triple-A Albuquerque on Tuesday.

Veen will join the big club for the first time in 2026 after he logged 37 plate appearances with the Rockies last season. The 24-year-old has been productive at Albuquerque in 2026, slashing .327/.402/.635 with 24 home runs and 19 stolen bases across 445 plate appearances. The Rockies designated Edouard Julien for assignment to make room on the active roster for Veen, who could be a candidate to fill the strong side of a platoon in the corner outfield.

Church is out of the lineup for Tuesday's matchup with the Phillies.

With Philadelphia sending southpaw Cristopher Sanchez to the hill on Tuesday, the left-handed-hitting Church will ride the pine. Everson Pereira will make his first start in center field and bat eighth for the Cardinals.

Philadelphia demoted Rangel to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Tuesday, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.

Rangel was roughed up in his lone outing Monday since returning to the big-league club on August 9. The right-hander went 2.2 innings, allowing three runs on six hits and a walk while striking out three against St. Louis. The Phillies elevated Alex McFarlane to replace Rangel on the active roster.

The Tigers released Gentry on Tuesday, Emily Waldon of Baseball America reports.

The 27-year-old outfielder has spent the entire season at Triple-A Toledo, where he slashed .250/.349/.417 with nine home runs, 48 RBI, 23 runs scored, seven stolen bases and a 29:59 BB:K across 278 trips to the plate. Gentry last appeared in the majors in 2024 with the Royals.
