  • Lenyn Sosa 2B | CHW

    White Sox's Lenyn Sosa: Exiting starting nine

    Sosa is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Phillies.

    Chase Meidroth will step in at second base while Sosa rests after starting in each of the last five games. Since rejoining the White Sox on June 17 following a stint on the injured list, Sosa is slashing .274/.311/.484 with six home runs, one stolen base, 23 RBI and 16 runs in 34 contests.

  • Royals' Jonathan India: Out with sore shoulder

    Royals manager Matt Quatraro said that India is being held out of Wednesday's lineup against Atlanta due to a sore shoulder, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.

    Quatraro added that India will be available off the bench and should be back in the lineup Friday following the team's scheduled off day Thursday. The Royals will start Adam Frazier at second base Wednesday.

  • Red Sox's Kristian Campbell: Heating up at Triple-A

    Campbell is slashing .481/.548/.852 with three home runs and a 5:4 K:BB over 31 plate appearances across his last seven games with Triple-A Worcester.

    Campbell had posted a .645 OPS and 34 percent strikeout rate in his first 22 contests after being optioned to Worcester, but he appears to have found his rhythm at the plate. The 23-year-old has also been used primarily at first base lately with Worcester, and it's at that position where he has the best chance to impact the Red Sox in the final two months of the season.

  • Tommy Edman 2B | LAD

    Dodgers' Tommy Edman: Homers in return

    Edman went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run Tuesday in a 5-4 win against Cincinnati.

    Edman sat out Monday due to an ankle issue, but he felt good enough to return to the starting lineup Tuesday. The infielder/outfielder certainly seemed fine in his first at-bat, as he poked a two-run homer to right field. It was his second long ball of the second half of the campaign, and during that span he's slashing .250/.294/.438 with five RBI over nine games.

  • Gleyber Torres 2B | DET

    Tigers' Gleyber Torres: Launches 11th home run

    Torres went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 12-2 win over the Diamondbacks.

    Torres was one of three Detroit players to go deep in the rout, launching his 11th home run of the season in the fifth inning. It's the second long ball in the last three days for the infielder, who is enjoying a strong debut campaign with the Tigers. Across 96 games, Torres is slashing .278/.379/.423 with 50 RBI and 55 runs scored.

  • Andres Gimenez 2B | TOR

    Blue Jays' Andres Gimenez: Slated to run bases Friday

    Blue Jays manager John Schneider said that Gimenez (ankle) is scheduled to run the bases Friday, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.

    If all goes well in the running workout, Gimenez could be cleared to begin a rehab assignment. He's missed most of July with a left ankle sprain but could be ready to rejoin the Blue Jays' 26-man active roster in early August if he continues to make good progress in his recovery.

  • Kyle Farmer 2B | COL

    Rockies' Kyle Farmer: Hits solo blast Tuesday

    Farmer went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's loss to the Guardians.

    Farmer left the yard in the ninth inning for his fifth home run this year, tying his total from last season. He's now scored four runs over his last two games but has not shown much life at the plate otherwise, slashing .216/.265/.347.

  • Guardians' Daniel Schneemann: Swipes bag Tuesday

    Schneemann went 2-for-5 with a double, a steal and a run scored in Tuesday's win over the Rockies.

    Schneemann notched only his second multi-hit game since June 26 and swiped his third bag this month after a single in the opening frame. He has a .444 on-base percentage over his last nine games, reaching base a total of 16 times, but is slashing just .221/.310/.381 with nine homers, 28 RBI, 33 runs, eight steals and a 31:68 BB:K in 278 plate appearances this season.

  • Angels' Christian Moore: Beginning rehab stint Wednesday

    Moore (thumb) will kick off a minor-league rehab assignment with Single-A Inland Empire on Wednesday, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

    Moore has been on the IL since July 3 due to a sprained left thumb. He resumed baseball activities late last week and has been playing catch, fielding grounders and swinging a bat. Moore could be back with the Angels in a matter of days, though it's unclear how the Angels will manage the infield upon his return. Luis Rengifo has been starting at second base of late and hitting well, while Yoan Moncada is the starter at third base, though he's currently sidelined by a hand injury.

  • Liover Peguero SS | PIT

    Pirates' Liover Peguero: Clubs homer

    Peguero went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional RBI in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Giants.

    Peguero tied the game at 1-1 in the fifth inning and added another RBI with a groundout in the eighth. The long ball was his first in the majors since the 2023 campaign, though he's hit a combined 18 homers over 200 games with Triple-A Indianapolis in 2024 and 2025. In the majors this year, he is batting .263 with a 1:5 BB:K across 21 plate appearances. He's made starts at first base, second base and shortstop over the last four games and appears to be a reserve utility infielder at this time.
