Sanchez took X-rays immediately following his early departure from Monday's game which came back negative, Pete Caldera of The Bergen Record reports.

After being replaced by Austin Wells in the top of the seventh, Sanchez's x-rays on his right wrist came back negative. Manager Aaron Boone said the catcher will go for a CT scan and is hopeful that this is just a "day to day thing."

The Orioles designated Siani for assignment on Monday.

Siani's stint with the Orioles was very brief after serving just two days with the big-league club. The 26-year-old was called to pinch-hit during Sunday's game against the Dodgers, registering one at-bat with Baltimore. Siani was DFA'd in order to make room for Chadwick Tromp on the roster.

Vest logged 1.1 scoreless innings of relief with two strikeouts to record the save in Monday's 5-3 win over the Yankees.

Vest retired the last four New York hitters of the game on only 12 pitches to secure his second save of the season. Regular closer Kenley Jansen didn't pitch Sunday but did see action on Friday and Saturday, so presumably the team wanted to give the veteran some extra rest after he recently came off the injured list. That opened the door for Vest, though he should slot in as Detroit's top setup option on days when Jansen pitches. Vest has been solid in June with a 2.00 ERA and seven strikeouts across 8.2 innings in eight appearances.

The Orioles selected Tromp's contract from Triple-A Norfolk on Monday.

Tromp will meet the big-league club in Los Angeles for their three-game series against the Angels. The 31-year-old played in 12 games for Atlanta and registered 27 plate appearances this season prior to signing with Baltimore on June 10. The Orioles designated Michael Siani to make room for Tromp on the roster.

The Astros removed Pena from the game after fouling off a pitch mid-at-bat, reports Julia Morales of Space City Home Network.

Brice Matthews replaced Pena at shortstop in the sixth inning after fouling off a pitch in the middle of his at-bat. The shortstop left the game 1-for-2 with two stolen bases and a run scored. Houston has yet to announce the specificity of the injury Pena suffered.

Greene went 1-for-2 with two walks, a solo home run and an additional run scored in Monday's 5-3 win over the Yankees.

After snapping a brief 0-for-11 slump with two hits and a walk Sunday, Greene reached base three more times Monday and also recorded his ninth home run of the season. While his power production is down from last year's pace, when he blasted a career-best 36 homers in 157 regular-season contests, Greene is now sporting an .830 OPS this year, which would be a new career high.

McGonigle went 2-for-5 with a double and two RBI in Monday's 5-3 win over the Yankees.

As he's done all season, McGonigle helped set the table for the Tigers as the leadoff man, and he managed to extend his hitting streak to eight games in the process. The likely American League Rookie of the Year frontrunner is now slashing .285/.393/.431, and he's only struck out 42 times across 75 contests. McGonigle's ability to make consistent contact at the plate should help him avoid any prolonged slumps moving forward and keep his fantasy value elevated.

Rushing left Monday's game against Minnesota early to rule out a concussion.

The Dodgers replaced Rushing early on in Monday's game to rule out a concussion after he was hit in the head with a foul ball. The Dodgers are already thin at catching depth with Will Smith on the injured list since June 11.

Rushing left Monday's game against the Twins early after taking a foul ball off the face mask, Adrian Medina of ESPN Los Angeles reports.

Chuckie Robinson has replaced Rushing behind the plate. Rushing exited the game in the bottom of the third after being hit by a foul ball. The Dodgers have yet to announce the specificity of the injury Rushing suffered Monday.

Tucker left Monday's game against Minnesota with low back spasms.

After mysteriously being replaced by Alex Call in the top of the second inning, the Dodgers announced that Tucker left the game due to low back spasms. With Teoscar Hernandez and Enrique Hernandez both on the injured list, the Dodgers cannot afford another injury to their already banged-up outfield.
