Keith is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Yankees.

Southpaw Ryan Weathers is on the bump for the Yankees, so the Tigers will send three of key left-handed hitters in Keith, Riley Greene and Kerry Carpenter to the bench to open up more spots in the lineup for righty bats. Keith has logged just 14 plate appearances versus lefties this season and has reached base on just two occasions.

Mayo is not in the lineup for Monday's contest against the White Sox.

Mayo had made nine consecutive starts, though that was preceded by a stretch when he was out of the lineup for five straight games. With Adley Rutschman and Dylan Beavers having returned from the injured list Sunday, there could be fewer opportunities moving forward for Mayo, who will have to contend with Blaze Alexander for reps at third base. Alexander is at the hot corner for Monday's series opener.

Delgado went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer in Sunday's 7-5 win over the Tigers.

Making his first start in four games with Jose Altuve getting the day off, Delgado put the Astros on the board in the seventh inning with his two-run blast off lefty Tyler Holton, cutting the deficit to 3-2. It's the first home run for Delgado in his first 27 major-league plate appearances. The 26-year-old infielder has gone 7-for-25 (.280) with a .708 OPS, four RBI and two runs scored in 13 games with Houston.

Durbin went 1-for-4 with two RBI, two stolen bases and one run scored in Sunday's 5-4 extra-inning win over the Yankees.

Durbin opened the scoring with a two-run single in the fourth inning. He has gone 17-for-39 (.436) over his last 11 games, a span that includes three home runs, eight RBI and four steals. The third baseman is now batting .230 with a .664 OPS, six homers, nine steals, 34 RBI, 30 runs scored, 17 doubles and a triple over 75 contests this season.

The Mariners acquired Kennedy from the Giants on Sunday in exchange for cash considerations.

San Francisco designated Kennedy for assignment earlier in the day, but the Giants didn't have to wait long to find a trade partner. The 27-year-old Kennedy played sparingly during his four-week stint in the majors with San Francisco, going 0-for-7 with a walk and three strikeouts over seven contests. Kennedy has no minor-league options remaining, so the Mariners will need to open up a spot for him on the 26-man active roster. He'll serve as a depth piece in the infield and outfield and could make occasional starts against left-handed pitching.

Paredes went 3-for-5 with a home run, two RBI and two runs scored in Sunday's 7-5 win over Detroit.

Paredes has now logged at least one hit in 12 of his last 13 games, racking up 12 RBI during that stretch. Now with five three-hit attacks on the campaign, the 27-year-old infielder is slashing a respectable .256/.350/.428 with 11 homers, 16 doubles and 45 RBI across 331 plate appearances.

Caminero went 3-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk and an additional RBI in Sunday's 5-1 win over the Diamondbacks.

With Sunday's solo shot, the surging Caminero became the 10th player in club history to homer in at least four straight games and the youngest Ray to ever do so, per Adam Berry of MLB.com. Firmly on track for his second consecutive All-Star selection, the slugging third baseman is slashing a robust .292/.384/.548 with 22 long balls, 12 doubles and 49 RBI over 354 plate appearances.

Vargas went 2-for-2 with a two-run home run, a double, two walks and an additional run scored in Sunday's 5-4 loss to the Royals.

After Sam Antonacci drew a leadoff walk in the first inning, Vargas opened the scoring with a 407-foot two-run homer. He later doubled and drew two free passes, reaching base in all four plate appearances. Vargas has now hit safely in six straight games, batting .435 (10-for-23) with three homers during that span. Through 81 games this season, he owns an .866 OPS while slugging his way to 19 home runs, 14 doubles, one triple, 52 RBI, 56 runs scored and 10 stolen bases.

Rosario will start at designated hitter and bat sixth in Sunday's game against the Red Sox.

Rosario will stick in the starting nine for the fourth straight game, though he'll be matching up against a right-hander (Sonny Gray) on Sunday after the Red Sox sent lefties to the hill for the first three contests of the series. Though Ryan McMahon's (throat infection) recent move to the injured list leaves a void at third base, the Yankees could elect to use Jose Caballero at that position on a more frequent basis rather than opening up an everyday role for Rosario.

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

Walton will hit the bench for the matinee game after he started at second base in each of the Angels' previous three tilts while going a collective 2-for-11 with a double and a 0:5 BB:K. Oswald Peraza will replace him at the keystone Sunday, but Walton may still be viewed as the Angels' preferred option at the position after posting an .847 OPS since being called up from Triple-A Salt Lake on May 22.
