Walker went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run and two walks Saturday in a loss to the Red Sox.

Walker gave Houston an early lead with a 433-foot blast in the first inning, but the Astros scored just once more in the contest. It was the veteran first baseman's second straight game with a long ball and his third home run of the second half. Walker has been hitting well since the All-Star break, batting .309 (17-for-55) with 11 RBI, eight runs and a stolen base through 15 games.

Gonzalez went 2-for-5 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in a 7-3 victory against Houston on Saturday.

Gonzalez plated Boston's first run with a solo blast to center field in the first inning. It was his second long ball over his past three games and his third across his past seven contests, though only four of those were starts. In fact, Gonzalez's past three homers have come across just 18 at-bats -- by comparison, it took him 136 at-bats to collect his first five long balls of the campaign. He's bashed lefties all season, with six of his eight total home runs coming against southpaws.

Kayfus went 0-for-4 with one RBI in Saturday's 5-4 win over the Twins.

Kayfus got the start in right field and earned his first major-league RBI on a groundout in the second inning. The 23-year-old looks to have a path to playing time in right field initially, but his performance will dictate if he's able to maintain an everyday role. Prior to his promotion, he batted .283 with an .893 OPS, 13 home runs, 43 RBI, 39 runs scored and two stolen bases over 68 games in his first taste of Triple-A action, so he looks more than ready to get an extended big-league audition.

The Rays recalled Feduccia from Triple-A Durham on Friday.

Feduccia will join the Rays to provide some much-needed offensive help behind the plate after logging an .866 OPS in 333 plate appearances with the Dodgers' Triple-A affiliate in Los Angeles prior to being dealt to Tampa Bay ahead of Thursday's trade deadline. Now that he's up with the big club, the 28-year-old will most likely work in the strong side of a platoon at catcher with Nick Fortes.

Burger (quad) began a rehab assignment at Double-A Frisco on Saturday.

Burger got back to hitting last Saturday after landing on the injured list July 16 with a left quad strain, and he said his goal was to return to the starting lineup by the time the Rangers begin their series against the Phillies next weekend. Barring any setbacks, his return to competitive action Saturday keeps him on pace to meet that expectation.

The Orioles claimed Noda off waivers from the White Sox on Saturday and optioned him to Triple-A Norfolk, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

Noda will keep a 40-man roster spot upon moving to the Orioles, though he will remain in the minors. The 29-year-old has gone just 3-for-34 in the big leagues this season but carries a .194/.390/.366 slash line through 236 plate appearances in Triple-A.

The Guardians selected Kayfus' contract from Triple-A Columbus on Saturday.

After turning in an .893 OPS through 289 plate appearances in Triple-A, the 23-year-old Kayfus will now reach the big leagues for the first time in his young career. Capable of fielding first base and the corner outfield positions, Kayfus will likely see most of his playing time in the outfield, replacing Daniel Schneemann as Cleveland's primary right fielder against right-handed starters. Johnathan Rodriguez was optioned to Triple-A in a corresponding move.

France went 0-for-4 with a strikeout in Friday's loss to the Royals.

With George Springer (concussion) on the shelf, France got the start at DH and batted sixth in his Blue Jays debut after being acquired from the Twins at the trade deadline. The 31-year-old could see regular at-bats in the short term, but once Springer is back, France will likely find himself on the bench most days, providing depth at first base behind Vladimir Guerrero and getting some short-side platoon work at DH. Through 391 plate appearances this season, France has a mediocre .249/.317/.353 with six homers and 44 RBI.

Walker went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Friday against the Red Sox.

Walker got the Astros on the board in the second inning with his 14th home run of the season. After a poor first few months of the season, he hit .318 with three home runs, 18 RBI and 11 runs scored across 22 games in July and has carried his strong form into August.

Guerrero went 1-for-4 with a solo homer in Friday's 9-3 loss to the Royals.

Guerrero got the scoring started with a solo home run to left field off Michael Wacha in the first inning. It was Guerrero's 16th home run of the season and fourth over his last 15 games. He has been hot at the plate since the All-Star break, slashing .397/.485/.690 with five doubles, four home runs and 12 RBI in 68 plate appearances.
