Ramirez went 2-for-4 with an RBI triple, a double, a walk, a stolen base and a run scored in Saturday's 6-4 loss to Detroit.

It was a strong showing in both power and speed for the third baseman. Ramirez entered Saturday on a 1-for-15 slump prior to his multi-hit burst. He's slashing .252/.340/.525 with 25 home runs, 14 stolen bases, 69 RBI, 74 runs scored and four triples through 441 plate appearances. Ramirez will bat third and play third base again in Sunday's series finale.

Urias (upper leg) is starting at second base and batting fifth Sunday against the Red Sox.

Urias has been dealing with soreness in his right upper leg throughout the week but will rejoin the starting nine Sunday. The 27-year-old sat five of the previous seven contests and went 0-for-6 with a walk in his two appearances.

Devers went 2-for-3 with a walk, a home run and four RBI in Saturday's 16-2 rout of the Orioles.

He set the tone early with a three-run shot off Jorge Lopez in the first inning, part of a five-homer, 17-hit rampage by the Boston offense in support of Chris Sale during the southpaw's first big-league start in almost exactly two years. Devers had gone yard only once in his last 15 games, but on the season he's up to 29 homers and 89 RBI through 113 games, putting him within striking distance of career highs in both categories.

Chapman went 2-for-4 with a pair of solo home runs in Saturday's 8-3 win over Texas.

Chapman, who hadn't homered since July 30, took Jordan Lyles deep twice in this one, first giving Oakland a 2-1 lead in the second inning, and then making it a 5-3 game in the seventh. The homers were Nos. 15 and 16 of the season for Chapman, who has had a tough year offensively, slashing just .218/.316/.382 in 472 plate appearances. He's 7-for-22 (.318) with 9:7 BB:K over the last week, however, so perhaps he's finally starting to find his way out of it.

Yankees manager Aaron Boone stated that Urshela (hamstring) won't be able to return during the team's current road trip that runs through Sunday, per MLB.com.

Urshela recently received a PRP shot to speed healing, but he isn't ready to rejoin the active roster. It's unclear how much longer the infielder is expected to be out, though a return by the end of next week isn't out of the question.

Urias (upper leg) remains on the bench for Saturday's game in Boston, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Urias has sat for five of the Orioles' last seven games due to soreness in his right leg. Jorge Mateo and Richie Martin will again start as the middle infielders in his absence.

Manager Dusty Baker said Friday that he is unsure when Bregman (hamstring) will resume his rehab assignment with Triple-A Sugar Land, Danielle Lerner of the Houston Chronicle reports.

At this point, it seems like it would be fortunate if Bregman were able to rejoin the big club sometime next week, and a late August return seems more realistic. He is working out and was originally slated to return to the Triple-A lineup Friday, but that was put on hold.

Bregman (hamstring) is not in the Triple-A lineup Friday, Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Bregman was supposed to be resuming his rehab assignment Friday, but it seems as though he isn't physically ready to do so. It's still possible he could be activated from the injured list sometime next week, but there has been no official reason given why he hasn't resumed his rehab assignment.

Urias (upper leg) will sit Friday against the Red Sox, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Urias has now been on the bench for four of the last six games as he works through a sore upper right leg. Jorge Mateo starts at second base in his absence, with Richie Martin starting at shortstop.

Candelario went 2-for-4 with a double, a triple, an RBI and a run scored in Thursday's win over the Orioles.

Candelario has been seeing the ball extremely well of late and he recorded two extra-base hits in this one, meaning he now has 32 doubles and two triples on the season. The third baseman also extended his hitting streak to eight games and has hit safely in all but one of his last 16 contests, slashing .344/.420/.590 with a homer, eight doubles, two triples, 11 RBI, 11 runs scored and an 8:13 BB:K in that span.
