    Davidson was designated for assignment Sunday.

    Davidson's contract was selected Saturday, and he logged 4.2 scoreless innings in Minnesota while giving up four hits and two walks with just one strikeout. The 28-year-old lefty logged a 3.89 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 104 strikeouts in 115.2 innings at Triple-A this season.

    The Red Sox will start Jarren Duran, Ceddanne Rafaela and Wilyer Abreu in the outfield for the regular-season finale.

    Selby was recalled from Triple-A Norfolk on Sunday.

    Selby has a 4.24 ERA, 1.35 WHIP, 26 strikeouts and four saves in 17 innings for Norfolk. The 26-year-old righty has good stuff and was acquired by Baltimore from Kansas City in July for cash.

    Red Sox's Romy Gonzalez: Sitting Sunday

    Gonzalez is absent from Sunday's lineup against Tampa Bay, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.

  • Tyler Gilbert RP | PHI

    Phillies' Tyler Gilbert: Sent down Sunday

    Gilbert was optioned to the Phillies' spring training complex Sunday.

    Gilbert logged a 3.24 ERA, 1.44 WHIP and four strikeouts in 8.1 innings across six appearances for the big club. He was unlikely to be used Sunday, so the Phillies opted to summon a bench bat (Buddy Kennedy) for the final game of the regular season.

  • Kenta Maeda SP | DET

    Tigers' Kenta Maeda: Starting Sunday vs. White Sox

    Maeda is starting Sunday against the White Sox.

    This will be Maeda's first start since July 9. He has been much better out of the bullpen (3.86 ERA, 1.07 WHIP) than in the rotation (7.26 ERA, 1.58 WHIP) this season, but the Tigers will look to him to eat some innings on the final day of the regular season.

  • Orioles' Anthony Santander: Not starting Sunday

    Santander is absent from Sunday's lineup against Minnesota.

    Santander will rest for the regular-season finale after going 2-for-9 with one RBI over his last two outings. Unless he pinch hits Sunday, he'll end the 2024 regular season with a .235/.308/.506 slash line, 44 home runs and 102 RBI over 665 plate appearances. The Orioles will start Colton Cowser, Cedric Mullins and Ryan O'Hearn in the outfield.

  • Ben Gamel RF | HOU

    Astros' Ben Gamel: Moved to 60-day IL

    Gamel (fibula) was transferred to the 60-day injured list Sunday.

    It had already been reported that Gamel was unlikely to return this season, and this move clears a spot on the 40-man roster for Sunday's starter Ryan Gusto.
