  • Jose Ramirez 3B | CLE

    Guardians' Jose Ramirez: Snaps mini-skid

    Ramirez went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in Monday's 3-1 win over the Diamondbacks.

    Ramirez's first-inning single snapped an 0-for-11 funk over the previous three games, the second-longest slump of the season for the third baseman. The steal was his 36th of the season.

  • Royals' Maikel Garcia: Belts 12th homer in win

    Garcia went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Monday's 4-3 win over Texas.

    Garcia has put together a five-game hitting streak, and he now has at least one hit in nine of his last 10 outings. The 25-year-old speedster is enjoying a career season in 2025 -- Garcia is slashing .302/.363/.473 with 12 homers, 56 RBI, 59 runs scored and 22 stolen bases over 510 plate appearances. He's also three RBI away from establishing a career-high mark.

  • Orioles' Jordan Westburg: Dealing with ankle discomfort

    Westburg left Monday's game against Boston due to right ankle discomfort, Andy Kostka of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.

    Westburg is likely being taken for further testing after being forced from Monday's clash. Luis Vazquez entered the game in Westburg's place at third base Monday and could be in line for additional opportunities going forward if the 26-year-old is forced to miss more time, though Coby Mayo and Jeremiah Jackson would also factor into the mix for at-bats. The team believes Westburg's injury to be mild, per Kostka.

  • Orioles' Jordan Westburg: Exits early Monday

    Westburg left Monday's game against the Red Sox due to an apparent lower-body injury, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

    Westburg suffered the injury while scrambling back to first base after making a hard turn towards second, and after being checked out by the team trainer, it was determined that he couldn't continue. He'll be considered day-to-day until the club has more news on the severity of the injury.

  • Luis Rengifo 3B | LAA

    Angels' Luis Rengifo: Sitting Monday

    Rengifo is not in the Angels' starting lineup against the Reds on Monday.

    Rengifo will be absent from the Halos' lineup for the third time in four games despite going 12-for-39 (.308) with two steals, two triples, 10 runs, two homers and six RBI since the beginning of August. Christian Moore will start at second base for Monday's series opener and bat seventh.

  • Josh Jung 3B | TEX

    Rangers' Josh Jung: Out of lineup again Monday

    Jung is not in the lineup for Monday's contest against the Royals.

    It's the second straight day Jung has been out of the lineup, though he did appear as a pinch hitter in Sunday's win over the Blue Jays. Jung is in a 5-for-35 drought at the dish and will once again yield the hot corner to Cody Freeman.

  • Zach McKinstry 3B | DET

    Tigers' Zach McKinstry: Sitting against right-hander

    McKinstry is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Astros.

    The left-handed-hitting McKinstry had started in each of the last four games while the Tigers faced right-handed pitchers, but he went just 2-for-15 during that stretch to bring his batting average down to .258 for the season. The Tigers will go up against another righty (Spencer Arrighetti) on Monday, but McKinstry will give up his spot in the lineup to Trey Sweeney, who draws the start at shortstop.

  • Nathan Eaton 3B | BOS

    Red Sox's Nate Eaton: Added to roster

    The Red Sox recalled Eaton from Triple-A Worcester on Monday.

    Eaton will join the 26-man active roster in place of Rob Refsnyder (oblique), who was placed on the 10-day injured list. The utility player previously went 6-for-24 with three stolen bases over 14 games with the big club earlier this season. The right-handed-hitting Eaton is unlikely to see many starts versus right-handed pitching, but he could have a regular spot in the lineup versus lefties. He'll serve as Boston's designated hitter and leadoff batter in Monday's matchup with Orioles southpaw Trevor Rogers.

  • Mariners' Miles Mastrobuoni: Sent back to Triple-A

    The Mariners optioned Mastrobuoni to Triple-A Tacoma on Monday.

    Mastrobuoni was designated as the Mariners' 27th man for Sunday's 7-3 loss to the Mets in the Little League Classic in Williamsport, Pa. and did not appear in the contest. He's heading back to Tacoma as the Mariners return to a standard 26-man active roster ahead of Monday's series opener in Philadelphia.

  • Orioles' Jordan Westburg: Homers, drives in five

    Westburg went 4-for-5 with a home run, five RBI and two runs scored in Sunday's win over Houston.

    Westburg led the charge in Baltimore's 12-0 victory with five RBI, including three with his fifth-inning homer. He later knocked RBI singles in the seventh and eighth frames. Westburg has at least three hits in three of his last 18 games, going 26-for-74 (.351) during that span. He's now slashing .277/.327/.475 with 15 home runs and 34 RBI through 72 games.
