The Athletics reinstated Gelof (hand) from the 10-day injured list Saturday.

Gelof had a minimum stint on the IL while recovering from a right hand contusion and did not need to embark on a rehab assignment before returning to the majors. With Brian Serven also being called up, the Athletics optioned both Darell Hernaiz and Joey Meneses to Triple-A Las Vegas in corresponding moves. Prior to his injury, Gelof posted an .834 OPS with eight steals, 11 home runs and 29 RBI in 228 plate appearances.

Arias is not in the Guardians' starting lineup against the White Sox on Saturday, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.

Arias will be on the bench for the opening of Saturday's contest while Daniel Schneemann starts at third base and bats seventh. Arias has gone 9-for-42 (.214) with one steal, one home run, two RBI and 18 strikeouts since being reinstated from the 60-day injured list June 14.

Vargas went 2-for-3 with a three-run homer in Friday's 4-3 extra-inning loss to the Guardians.

Vargas supplied all of the White Sox's runs with a three-run homer in the fifth inning, which came before the nearly two-hour rain delay. The 26-year-old third baseman is now up to 20 home runs on the year, which is the first time he's reached that mark in a season since making his major-league debut with the Dodgers in 2022. Vargas is slashing .248/.359/.495 with 11 steals (in 13 attempts), 55 RBI and 58 runs scored across 374 plate appearances this season.

The Mariners selected Mastrobuoni's contract from Triple-A Tacoma on Friday.

Mastrobuoni was DFA'd by the Mariners in mid-June but is back with the big club to provide depth in the outfield after Julio Rodriguez (concussion) was placed on the 7-day injured list. Mastrobuoni has spent most of the 2026 season in Triple-A, where he has a .603 OPS with five steals, one home run and three RBI over 71 plate appearances.

Muncy is not in the Athletics' starting lineup against the Marlins on Friday.

The Athletics will give the nod at third base to Joshua Kuroda-Grauer, who will bat fifth against Marlins right-hander Tyler Phillips in Friday's series opener. Muncy has reached base safely in each of his last eight games, going 8-for-28 (.286) with one steal, three walks, one home run and four RBI in that span.

The Yankees optioned Cabrera to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Friday.

With Ryan McMahon (illness) back from the injured list, Cabrera will return to Triple-A after going hitless in 11 trips to the plate with four strikeouts for the big club.

The Yankees activated McMahon (illness) from the 10-day injured list Friday.

McMahon has been out since June 21 due to a throat and ear infection. The veteran infielder has slashed .210/.269/.360 with eight homers, 23 RBI, 19 runs scored, three stolen bases and a 15:62 BB:K across 202 trips to the dish this season.

Keith went 1-for-2 with a solo home run in Thursday's 10-4 loss to the Rangers.

Keith got only two at-bats before getting pulled for a pinch hitter in the sixth inning, but he still made an impact when he took Nathan Eovaldi deep in the fifth. After going the first 62 games of the year without leaving the yard, the 24-year-old has tallied all six of his long balls across his last 18 contests. During that span, Keith has an .869 OPS, compared to his .678 mark overall.

The Rangers signed Espinal to a minor-league contract Thursday, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports.

The Dodgers designated Espinal for assignment June 16 after they got Tommy Edman back from an ankle injury. Espinal slashed .375/.385/.542 with a home run and five RBI across 16 games in his final month of play for the Dodgers (May 13 to June 13).

Keys went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Wednesday's win over the Mets.

Getting the start at DH and batting eighth, Keys gave Toronto a 5-0 lead in the third inning on Canada Day when he took Freddy Peralta deep. It was Keys' first career homer in his third MLB game, but just his second hit in 12 at-bats against five strikeouts. The 23-year-old has a path to sticking around on the big-league roster longer than expected with Addison Barger (back/elbow) struggling to get healthy and not expected back until well after the All-Star break, but Keys will need to make more consistent contact to take advantage of the opportunity.
