Texas activated Jung (neck) from the 10-day injured list Tuesday.

Jung appears to be over his neck spasms and is ready to return to the lineup after a rehab stint at Double-A Frisco. Jung went 3-for-7 at the plate with one RBI to begin the season before going down with the neck issue. In order to make room for Jung on the 26-man roster, the Rangers optioned Ezequiel Duran to Triple-A Round Rock.

Rivera (shoulder) has gone 3-for-12 with two walks, an RBI and a stolen base in three games since being activated from Triple-A Norfolk's 7-day injured list Friday.

Rivera had been attending spring training as a non-roster invitee but didn't appear in any Grapefruit League games after March 13 due to a sore left shoulder. The injury resulted in him being inactive when Norfolk opened its season March 28, but Rivera missed only a handful of games before being cleared for his 2025 debut. The 28-year-old boasts 341 games' worth of MLB experience, but since he no longer possesses a spot on the Orioles' 40-man roster, he may face an uphill battle to earn another look with Baltimore in 2025.

Moncada (thumb) remains out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rays, Erica Weston of Bally Sports West reports.

Moncada will miss his third straight start as he tends to a thumb injury. Luis Rengifo is making another start at third base and batting second. Moncada is slashing .200/.385/.300 with a pair of doubles, four RBI and three runs scored across 26 plate appearances to begin the 2025 campaign.

Cabrera is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Tigers.

Even though Cabrera and Oswald Peraza are both right-handed hitters, the two appear to have settled into a de facto platoon at third base. All seven of Cabrera's starts have come against right-handed pitching, and all four of his absences from the lineup have come when the Yankees have faced left-handers. Peraza will make his third straight start against a southpaw Tuesday as the Tigers send ace Tarik Skubal to the hill.

Smith started at third base and went 0-for-2 with a walk in Monday's 7-0 loss to the Cubs.

Smith has been the primary fill-in at third base while Josh Jung (neck) worked his way back from the 10-day injured list. Jung's IL stint is expected to end Tuesday, when the Rangers plan to activate him. That means Smith will be free to play one of the many other positions on his resume. Smith batted .350 (7-for-20) over seven games since Jung was placed on the IL.

Polanco went 1-for-4 with a two-run single and a stolen base in Monday's 4-3 win over Houston.

After missing Seattle's previous two games with side soreness, Polanco delivered a go-ahead two-run single in the eighth inning to help power the Mariners to victory. The veteran switch-hitter has dealt with some nagging injuries in the early going, but he's been highly effective when healthy while hitting .417 with two long balls, 10 RBI and one stolen base over 24 at-bats (seven games).

Lewis (hamstring) is likely three weeks away from being cleared to begin a rehab assignment, Phil Miller of The Minnesota Star Tribune reports.

Lewis was officially given the green light to start a running progression Saturday, but he's not yet close to ramping up his baseball activity or seeing live action. Even so, he's been encouraged by the process he's seen thus far in his rehab. "Any time they let me do something more, it's always pretty good," said Lewis. "I'll probably run three days in a row, take a break, then try to get on the bases. It's a long progression." Lewis suffered the left hamstring strain March 16 while running to first base and will presumably need at least a few games in the minors before the club considers activating him from the 10-day injured list.

Ibanez went 1-for-3 with a three-run homer in Monday's win over the Yankees.

Ibanez opened the game's scoring with his third-inning long ball, which proved to be the deciding factor in the 6-2 victory. It was his first extra-base hit of the season. After starting in an 0-for-9 rut through four games, he's collected a hit in each of his last three appearances. Ibanez is slashing .158/.273/.316 through 22 plate appearances.

Smith isn't listed in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Mariners.

The Astros have elected to give Smith a second straight day off following a 2-for-18 start at the dish through his first six games. Mauricio Dubon gets the call in right field and will bat ninth in Smith's absence.

Polanco (side) will start at designated hitter and bat second in Monday's game versus the Astros, Adam Jude of The Seattle Times reports.

Polanco missed the previous two contests with side soreness that was originally reported as knee soreness but is feeling well enough to give it a go in the series opener against the division rival Astros. The switch hitter sports a scorching .450/.476/.750 batting line with two home runs in the early going this season.
