Urias drew his first start since Sept. 4 in Sunday's win over the Rangers and went 0-for-3 with a hit-by-pitch and a run.

Urias was making his first appearance of any kind since that game, one in which he'd rapped out three extra-base hits and knocked in four runs. Despite that stellar performance, Urias had not been able to crack the starting nine again with Josh Rojas healthy and getting regular run at the hot corner. Urias limped to a .152 average and .580 OPS across his first 35 games at the big-league level this season before being demoted to Triple-A Tacoma, but he'd earned a call back up by posting a strong .260 average and .789 OPS across 78 games with the Rainiers.

Ramos went 2-for-3 with a solo homer, a double and a walk in Sunday's win over Oakland.

Ramos' solo shot in the sixth inning proved to be the game-deciding run. It was his second career home run and both have come in his last six appearances. The rookie third baseman is slashing .209/.250/.343 with five extra-base hits through 22 games.

Moncada (adductor) joined the White Sox on Sunday and is expected to be activated from the 60-day injured list Monday, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

The 29-year-old has been sidelined since April due to an adductor strain, but he's apparently ready to rejoin the active roster after a 12-game rehab assignment with Triple-A Charlotte. Moncada played in just 11 games prior to the injury, but he'll look to finish the season strong as he likely heads into free agency this offseason, since the White Sox are a strong bet to decline his $25 million club option for 2025.

Rojas is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rangers.

The Mariners entered Sunday having faced nine straight right-handed starting pitchers, and Rojas posted a .397 OPS while starting all of those games. Luis Urias will take over at the hot corner against Texas lefty Andrew Heaney.

Jung is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mariners.

Jung started the first 13 games of September and will receive Sunday off after he began the month with three homers and an .881 OPS. Ezequiel Duran will shift to the hot corner while Carson Kelly receives a start at designated hitter.

Bregman is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

Bregman will receive a day off after a run of seven straight starts, during which he went 6-for-30 with two homers, six RBI and five runs. Mauricio Dubon will receive a look at the hot corner while batting ninth.

Vargas is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics.

Vargas will take a seat for the second day in a row and for the third time in five contests. Bryan Ramos appears to have supplanted Vargas as Chicago's preferred option at third base, though both players could see their opportunities dry up if Yoan Moncada (adductor) is able to return from the injured list later in the week.

Miranda is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Reds,

On the bench for the third time in four games against a right-hander, Miranda looks as though he'll have to settle for more of a part-time role after the Twins recently welcomed Byron Buxton and Carlos Correa back from the injured list. Miranda should still have a regular spot in the lineup against left-handed pitching.

Jung is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Orioles.

Jung has a .619 OPS through his first 24 big-league games and is hitting .227 over 22 at-bats in September, and he will head to the bench Sunday as southpaw Cade Povich takes the mound for Baltimore. Andy Ibanez will receive a start at third base and bat leadoff in the series finale.

The Orioles designated Maton for assignment Sunday.

He'll give up his spot on the roster to outfielder/designated hitter Heston Kjerstad (concussion), who was reinstated from the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move. After being called up from Triple-A Norfolk on Sept. 2, Maton saw action in five games for the Orioles and went 0-for-5 with two strikeouts.
