Ray (5-6) took the win in the resumption of Tuesday's game against Atlanta on Wednesday, allowing two hits and two walks while striking out eight across 6.1 scoreless innings in a 7-2 victory.

Adrian Houser started the contest Tuesday before it was suspended by inclement weather and resumed Wednesday. Ray entered in the second inning with a 3-2 lead and never let it go, recording his second win in his last three appearances. The 34-year-old southpaw struck out a season-high eight batters. He now owns a 4.07 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 74:38 K:BB across 79.2 innings in 15 outings.

Chisholm went 1-for-5 with a solo home run Wednesday in a 10-5 victory against the White Sox.

Chisholm's lone hit was a solo shot to right-center field in the seventh inning that capped New York's scoring in the contest. After going deep a modest six times through his first 56 games of the season, Chisholm's power has been more prevalent in June, as he's hit four homers through 13 games this month. With 10 long balls and 20 thefts overall, he joins Jose Ramirez (hand) and Oneil Cruz (hand) as the only big-leaguers to reach both marks so far.

Ramos (quadriceps) went 1-for-5 with a walk and a run scored in Triple-A Sacramento's 9-6 win over Oklahoma City on Wednesday.

Ramos began his rehab assignment with Sacramento after landing on the 10-day injured list May 16 with a right quadriceps strain. The 26-year-old outfielder singled in the fifth before coming around to score, and he also drew a walk in the sixth. Before he was sent to the IL, Ramos slashed .267/.307/.424 with 20 RBI, 19 runs scored, four home runs and a 26.7 percent strikeout rate across 176 plate appearances.

Goldschmidt went 2-for-5 with a three-run home run against the White Sox in a 10-5 win Wednesday.

Goldschmidt gave New York a 9-3 lead in the fifth inning with a three-run blast to right field. The long ball was his second in as many days and his third over his past four contests. Goldschmidt is working on a nine-game hitting streak, during which he's slashing .410/.429/.718 with four homers, 13 RBI and four runs. He's been batting leadoff against left-handed starters, giving the Yankees a potent bat at the top of the lineup.

The Diamondbacks released Baker on Monday.

Baker was up for three games with the big club earlier this season but has spent most of the year at Triple-A Reno, where he's slashed just .218/.327/.352 with three home runs in 51 contests. The 29-year-old will now be on the lookout for a new organization.

Neto went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in a loss to Arizona on Wednesday.

Neto accounted for the Angels' only run with a 431-foot solo blast to center field leading off the game. It was the shortstop's second long ball in as many days and fifth homer across his past 11 games. Neto's .228 batting average through 330 plate appearances isn't great, but with 15 homers, 51 runs, 34 RBI and 11 stolen bases, he's providing plenty of fantasy value.

Henriquez earned a hold against the Rays on Wednesday, allowing one hit in 1.1 scoreless innings of work.

Henriquez was summoned in the seventh inning, right after the Dodgers took a one-run lead. The right-hander allowed an infield single to open the frame, but that was quickly wiped out on a double play. After getting through the seventh, Henriquez remained in the game for one batter in the eighth and got Junior Caminero to ground out before departing. Henriquez picked up his fifth hold, all of which have come over his past 12 appearances. He's pitched to a 2.13 ERA, 0.79 WHIP and 15:2 K:BB over 12.2 innings during that span.

Mears (shoulder) threw a bullpen Tuesday and could go on a rehab assignment soon, MLB.com reports.

Mears was placed on the injured list May 29 due to a right shoulder impingement and appears to be progressing nicely in his rehab. With a rehab assignment on the horizon, the right-hander should be back in the big-league bullpen fairly soon, assuming no setbacks. Before being shelved, Mears posted a 5.12 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 15:11 K:BB across 19.1 innings.

Edman went 0-for-3 with a walk in Wednesday's 5-4 win against Tampa Bay.

Edman made his season debut following a long absence while recovering from last November's ankle surgery. He was unable to get a hit in first game back, though the super-utility man did draw a fourth-inning walk. Edman batted leadoff and played third base Wednesday, but neither of those situations are likely to stick. Shohei Ohtani got the day off as a hitter and is likely to return to the top of the batting order for Los Angeles' next game, and Max Muncy -- who pinch hit for Edman in the seventh frame Wednesday -- is the Dodgers' primary third baseman. Edman should still see ample playing time, with much of it coming at second base and in the outfield.

Massey went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 6-2 win over the Nationals.

Massey launched a 430-foot solo shot to straightaway center field in the third inning, marking the fourth Royals homer of the game. The second baseman has enjoyed a productive June, hitting .320 with three homers, three doubles, nine RBI and seven runs scored across 14 appearances, though he has yet to draw a walk this month. Overall, the 28-year-old is slashing .261/.278/.466 with seven homers, 12 doubles, 24 RBI, 20 runs and a stolen base through 57 contests.
