Polanco (knee) has been moved up to Triple-A St. Paul to continue his rehab assignment, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.

Polanco went 5-for-18 with one double in six games with Low-A Fort Myers and is now ready to test things out against stiffer competition. The veteran second baseman is working his way back from a left knee issue and should be ready for his season debut in the next week or so.

Wisely was recalled Tuesday from Triple-A Sacramento, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Wisely made the Opening Day roster out of Giants camp this spring before getting sent down after just one game. He'll get another look coming off a huge weekend showing for Sacramento, including a four-double game Sunday.

Arroyo (lower body) is not in the Red Sox' lineup for Tuesday's game against the Twins, Julian McWilliams of The Boston Globe reports.

Arroyo had to come out of Monday's contest versus the Angels due to lower-body cramping and will be held out of this one. Enrique Hernandez will cover second base.

Urias (hamstring) was transferred Tuesday from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day injured list, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Urias suffered a severe left hamstring strain in the Brewers' season opener March 30 against the Cubs. The initial timeline called for him to miss at least eight weeks, so this is mostly just a procedural move to clear out a 40-man roster spot.

Julien is absent from the Twins' lineup Tuesday against the Red Sox.

The left-handed hitting Julien will take a seat with the Red Sox throwing southpaw Chris Sale. Switch hitter Willi Castro is at second base. It's the first time in the six games since he was promoted that Julien hasn't been in the lineup.

Sosa is starting at second base and batting eighth for the White Sox in the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Phillies.

It's the fifth straight start for Sosa, who is 3-for-16 with a home run in his previous four contests. The 23-year-old is one of the White Sox' better prospects and is worth using in deeper fantasy leagues while he's playing regularly, although that might only be the case while Tim Anderson (knee) is out.

Rosario is hoping to return to the lineup Friday versus the Marlins after an MRI on his back was negative, Zack Meisel of The Athletic reports.

There's an outside chance Rosario could be available sooner than that, but it sounds like Friday is realistically his first shot to be back in action. Rosario hasn't played since Saturday because of a back issue. Tyler Freeman has been recalled and is starting the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader versus the Tigers.

Espinal went 1-for-1 with a solo home run in Monday's 9-2 loss against Houston.

Espinal replaced Bo Bichette at shortstop in the bottom of the seventh, and he hit his first homer of the season in the top of the eighth. It was only the third hit this season for the backup middle infielder, who's appeared in just 10 of Toronto's 17 games.

Rosario (back) is out of the lineup for the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader with the Tigers.

Rosario is dealing with a minor back issue and will sit out at least the first game of Tuesday's twin bill. Tyler Freeman will get the nod at shortstop in the early game in Rosario's stead.

Semien went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in Monday's 4-0 win over the Royals.

Semien reached on an error by third baseman Hunter Dozier to start the game and came around to score on a three-run homer by Josh Jung. The second baseman extended the Rangers' lead to 4-0 with a solo shot in the third, marking his third long ball of the season. During Semien's current four-game hitting streak, he has totaled three extra-base knocks, six RBI and six runs.
