Nathan Eaton 3B | BOS
Red Sox's Nate Eaton: Set to join major-league roster
The Red Sox are expected to recall Eaton from Triple-A Worcester prior to Monday's game against the Orioles, Andrew Parker of Beyond the Monster reports.
Boston won't announce the roster move until Monday, but the Wilyer Abreu (calf) could be a candidate to go on the injured list in a corresponding transaction. Eaton has previously seen action in 14 games with Boston this season, slashing .250/.296/.333 with three stolen bases over 27 plate appearances.

Paul DeJong 3B | WAS
Nationals' Paul DeJong: Hits late homer
DeJong went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run and an additional run scored during Sunday's 11-9 loss to the Phillies.
DeJong tried to spark a comeback Sunday, tagging Max Lazar for a three-run home run in the bottom of the ninth to make it a two-run game. His long ball prompted the Phillies to insert closer Jhoan Duran, who immediately shut the door. DeJong has been on a heater recently, having hit five home runs in his last 10 games and going 12-for-39 (.308) during that stretch.

Alec Bohm 3B | PHI
Phillies' Alec Bohm: Goes yard in return
Bohm went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run and an additional run scored during Sunday's 11-9 win over Washington.
Bohm appeared in an MLB game for the first time in almost a month after suffering a left rib fracture, and he didn't miss a beat. The third baseman swatted his ninth home run of the campaign, tagging Mitchell Parker for a three-run homer in the second inning. Bohm is now one round tripper away from his fourth straight season with double-digit home runs. In 388 plate appearances, Bohm is slashing .280/.327/.401.

Alex Freeland 3B | LAD
Dodgers' Alex Freeland: Posts first steal
Freeland went 0-for-1 with a walk and a stolen base in Sunday's 5-4 win over the Padres.
Freeland's major-league career started well, but he's gone just 2-for-25 with seven walks and 10 strikeouts over his last 10 games. He's still seeing a decent share of playing time as the Dodgers try to plug holes in an infield missing Max Muncy (oblique), Tommy Edman (ankle) and Enrique Hernandez (elbow). Sunday's steal was the first of Freeland's career, and he's batting .167 with two RBI and six runs scored over his first 15 contests.

Ronny Mauricio 3B | NYM
Mets' Ronny Mauricio: Taking seat Sunday
Mauricio is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mariners.
Mauricio will head to the bench for the series finale after he started in each of the Mets' last three contests while going 2-for-11 with a stolen base and a run. With Mauricio bowing out of the lineup, Mark Vientos will pick up a start at the hot corner.

Jose Tena 3B | WAS
Nationals' Jose Tena: Demoted after Sunday's game
The Nationals optioned Tena to Triple-A Rochester following Sunday's 11-9 loss to the Phillies.
Making a start at second base Sunday, Tena went 1-for-4 with an RBI double and his third stolen base of the season, but the performance wasn't enough for him to maintain his spot on the 26-man active roster heading into the Nationals' three-game series with the Mets, which begins Tuesday. The 24-year-old infielder has handled a limited role across his multiple stints in the big leagues this season, slashing .243/.341/.355 with no home runs, 16 RBI and 19 runs over 169 plate appearances.

Miles Mastrobuoni 3B | SEA
Mariners' Miles Mastrobuoni: Serving as 27th man
The Mariners recalled Mastrobuoni from Triple-A Tacoma prior to Sunday's game against the Mets in Williamsport, Pa.
Seattle is designating Mastrobuoni as its 27th man for the 2025 MLB Little League Classic, so he'll most likely head back to Tacoma once the contest in Williamsport is completed. Mastrobuoni isn't in the lineup for Sunday's contest but is capable of serving as an in-game replacement at multiple infield or outfield positions.

Brett Harris 3B | ATH
Athletics' Brett Harris: Claiming third straight start
Harris will start at third base and bat eighth in Sunday's game against the Angels.
After going 2-for-6 with two walks, two runs and an RBI in the first two contests of the series, Harris will remain in the lineup for a third straight game since being called up from Triple-A Las Vegas. So long as he continues to deliver productive at-bats, Harris will likely hold down the fort at third base until Max Muncy (hand) is cleared to return from the injured list.
