The Rockies recalled Trejo from Triple-A Albuquerque on Tuesday.

Trejo returns to the Rockies after suffering a dislocated finger May 21 in Triple-A. He fills the roster spot of Connor Joe, who was optioned Tuesday, and figures to get some action at shortstop until Trevor Story (elbow) recovers from his injury.

Torres is not in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rays.

Torres has struggled at the plate over the last seven games, collecting just three hits (zero XBH) across 24 at-bats. He'll take a seat Tuesday as Gio Urshela slides over to shortstop and DJ LeMahieu mans the hot corner.

Espinal isn't starting Tuesday's game against the Marlins.

Espinal started in Sunday's matinee and went 1-for-3 with two strikeouts. Joe Panik will start at third base and bat sixth.

Cleveland optioned Clement to Triple-A Columbus on Monday.

After a one-day stint with the big club, Clement was sent back to Triple-A to make room on the active roster for pitcher Triston McKenzie, who started the first game of Monday's doubleheader with the White Sox.

Miller is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the White Sox.

Miller was also out of the lineup for the second game of Monday's doubleheader, so he'll be on the bench for a second straight contest Tuesday. The rookie is slashing a measly .125/.152/.156 with a 42.4 percent strikeout rate in his first nine games in the big leagues, and a demotion to Triple-A Columbus could be in the cards if he fails to turn things around quickly.

Rosario went 3-for-7 with a solo home run and two runs scored across both games of Monday's doubleheader versus the White Sox.

He went back-to-back with Cesar Hernandez to put Cleveland ahead 2-0 early in Game 1 of the twin bill. Rosario looks to be heating up again -- he's gone 5-for-13 in his last four games. The shortstop is slashing .252/.318/.381 with three homers, 14 RBI, 21 runs scored and four stolen bases. He frequently hits second in the order, which should keep him involved in run-producing plays.

Lux went 2-for-4 with two solo home runs in Monday's win over the Cardinals.

Lux recorded his first multi-hit game since May 23, and perhaps coincidentally, that was the last time he belted a home run as well. The second baseman has settled in as a regular this season, but his numbers aren't eye-popping by any means -- he's only hitting .247 with a .701 OPS across 168 plate appearances.

Dubon went 1-for-2 with a solo home run in Monday's 6-1 win over the Angels.

Dubon entered the game in the sixth inning after Evan Longoria (side) exited. In the bottom of the sixth, Dubon extended San Francisco's lead to 4-1 with his solo shot, which was his second homer in as many games. The utilityman is slashing .244/.281/.387 with four homers, 17 RBI, 11 runs scored and a stolen base through 48 contests this year. If Longoria is forced to miss time, one of Dubon, Wilmer Flores or Donovan Solano would likely handle third base in a near-everyday role.

Altuve went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run, a walk and three runs scored in Monday's 11-2 win over Boston.

The second baseman extended Houston's lead to 4-0 with a two-run blast off Boston starter Eduardo Rodriguez in the third inning. Altuve also scored in the fifth and sixth innings on singles by Kyle Tucker and Alex Bregman. Altuve has racked up seven home runs, 23 RBI, 35 runs scored and a stolen base while slashing .303/.359/.455 through 198 plate appearances, mainly as a leadoff hitter.

Miller is out of the lineup for the second game of Monday's doubleheader with the White Sox.

For the first time since his May 23 call-up from Triple-A Columbus, Miller will head to the bench, ending a streak of nine consecutive starts. After a going 0-for-3 with a walk in Cleveland's 8-6 loss in Game 1 of the twin bill, Miller is sitting on a .125/.152/.156 slash line to begin his big-league career.
