  • 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.

  • Luis Rengifo 3B | LAA

    Angels' Luis Rengifo: Idle Sunday

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

    Rengifo will retreat to the bench for the series finale after he had started in eight of the Angels' previous nine contests. Christian Moore will spell him at second base and will bat seventh.

  • Yoan Moncada 3B | LAA

    Angels' Yoan Moncada: Taking Sunday off

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

    After starting in each of the last five games, Moncada will get a breather as the Angels close out their series in Sacramento. Oswald Peraza will step in for Moncada at third base.

  • Kyle Karros 3B | COL

    Rockies' Kyle Karros: Receiving first day off

    Karros is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Diamondbacks.

    For the first time since he was called up from Triple-A Albuquerque on Aug. 8, Karros will receive a day off. The 23-year-old has kicked off his big-league career in impressive fashion, slashing .290/.389/.387 with three doubles, a 5:6 BB:K, three RBI and seven runs in nine games. Orlando Arcia will cover third base Sunday in his stead.

  • Vidal Brujan 2B | ATL

    Braves' Vidal Brujan: Moves back to bench role

    Brujan is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Guardians.

    He made three starts over a five-game stretch prior to the return of Ronald Acuna from the IL, but Brujan has been stuck to the bench since. So long as Atlanta's regular outfield trio of Acuna, Michael Harris and Jurickson Profar remains healthy, Brujan will be in line for sporadic playing time.

  • Josh Jung 3B | TEX

    Rangers' Josh Jung: Receiving Sunday off

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

    Jung will hit the bench after starting the Rangers' last nine games and going 5-for-34 (.147) with a 2:11 BB:K. The freshly recalled Cody Freeman will replace Jung at third base and bat eighth.

  • Alex Bregman 3B | BOS

    Red Sox's Alex Bregman: Receiving Sunday off

    Bregman is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins.

    Bregman will check out of the starting nine for the first time since July 30 in what appears to be a routine day off. Abraham Toro will cover third base in Bregman's stead Sunday.

  • Graham Pauley 3B | MIA

    Marlins' Graham Pauley: Idle against southpaw

    Pauley is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Red Sox.

    Pauley will be joined on the bench by fellow left-handed hitters Troy Johnston, Liam Hicks and Jakob Marsee while the Red Sox send southpaw Garrett Crochet to the hill. Javier Sanoja will replace Pauley at third base and will bat fifth.

  • Jose Caballero 2B | NYY

    Yankees' Jose Caballero: Thriving with more playing time

    Caballero went 2-for-4 with a walk, three runs and two stolen bases against the Cardinals in a 12-8 victory Saturday.

    Caballero started in right field for the second straight game, as Giancarlo Stanton got another day off. The speedy utility player has taken advantage of the sudden opportunity, reaching base six times over nine plate appearances while swiping four bases. Given that production, he may begin to see his playing time tick up -- in fact, Caballero is back in the lineup Sunday, this time starting at shortstop in place of Anthony Volpe.
