Blue Jays' Andres Gimenez: Returns from IL
The Blue Jays reinstated Gimenez (ankle) from the 10-day injured list and he is starting at second base Tuesday versus the Cubs.
Gimenez, who sprained his left ankle in early July, played in five games during his rehab assignment with Triple-A Buffalo. He went 7-for-18 with a stolen base and three runs scored. With the second baseman returning Tuesday, Buddy Kennedy was designated for assignment in a corresponding move.

Jazz Chisholm 2B | NYY
Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Homers, swipes bag Monday
Chisholm went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk and a stolen base in Monday's 6-2 victory versus Minnesota.
Chisholm hit one of four solo homers by New York in the win, going deep to right-center field in the eighth inning. The veteran infielder also swiped a bag in the game, moving him to 15 thefts along with 20 home runs on the season. He's one of only 10 major-leaguers to have reached both marks so far this season.

Ramon Urias 3B | STL
Astros' Ramon Urias: Big offensive output in win
Urias went 3-for-4 with a double, a two-run home run and an additional run scored in Monday's victory over the Red Sox.
Urias played a key role in Monday's win, collecting a pair of extra-base hits. Since joining the Astros, the infielder has slashed .333/.400/.611 over seven games with two doubles, a homer and three RBI. He has started three of the last seven games and makes for a nice option in deeper daily leagues, especially when he's at home, as he is well-suited to take advantage of the Crawford Boxes in left field.

Christian Moore 2B | LAA
Angels' Christian Moore: Out of Monday's lineup
Moore is not in the lineup for Monday's contest versus the Dodgers.
Moore is just 3-for-20 at the plate since returning from a thumb injury, and this will be the second time over the last three contests that he's began the game on the bench. Luis Rengifo will handle second base and bat seventh for the Angels.

Scott Kingery 2B | CHC
Angels' Scott Kingery: Jettisoned from 40-man roster
The Angels designated Kingery for assignment Monday.
The move makes room on the Angels' 40-man roster for Shaun Anderson, whose contract was selected from Triple-A Salt Lake. Kingery has spent most of the 2025 season in Triple-A, where he has a .256/.317/.424 slash line with one steal, three triples, five home runs and 21 RBI in 189 plate appearances.

Jonathan India 2B | KC
Royals' Jonathan India: Absent from Monday's lineup
India is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Nationals.
India will get his first day off since July 30 after slashing just .182/.308/.303 through the Royals' first nine games of August. With India on the bench, Adam Frazier will start at second base and Randal Grichuk will serve as the Royals' designated hitter.

David Hamilton SS | MIL
Red Sox's David Hamilton: Moves back to Triple-A
The Red Sox optioned Hamilton to Triple-A Worcester on Monday.
After being called up from Triple-A on July 25, Hamilton appeared in just eight games for Boston and was deployed mainly as a pinch runner or defensive replacement late in contests. Hamilton should get the chance to play regularly upon returning to Worcester.

Michael Massey 2B | KC
Royals' Michael Massey: Three-hit performance in rehab
Massey (wrist/back/ankle) went 3-for-5 with two RBI and a run scored with Triple-A Omaha on Sunday.
Massey resumed his rehab assignment Saturday for a fractured right wrist and left ankle sprain after a setback caused by back tightness. He's looked sharp since returning, going 4-for-9 with two RBI over two games at Triple-A Omaha. It's been a frustrating recovery process for the utilityman, with multiple injuries piling up, and he was already scuffling at the plate before landing on the injured list June 10, slashing just .202/.221/.258 in 56 games for the Royals.

Lenyn Sosa 2B | TOR
White Sox's Lenyn Sosa: Power surge continues
Sosa went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run and three RBI on Sunday against the Guardians.
Sosa kicked off the scoring with a two-run home run in the first inning, his 14th of the season. That continued a prolific power surge, as Sosa now has five homers in his last 11 starts. He's also managed to go 13-for-39 with 10 RBI and nine runs scored in that span.

Gleyber Torres 2B | DET
Tigers' Gleyber Torres: Reaches three times in win
Torres went 1-for-3 with two walks, two runs scored and an RBI in Sunday's 9-5 win over the Angels.
Torres has been a bit sluggish in August with a .226 batting average across nine games, but this was his third time this month reaching base at least twice, and he remains an effective No. 2 hitter in a strong Detroit lineup. For the season, the infielder is slashing .271/.371/.421 with 13 home runs, 57 RBI and 61 runs scored in 105 games.
