MLB Player News

Briceno was promoted to Triple-A Toledo on Sunday, per MLB Pipeline.

Briceno will move up to Triple-A after producing a .297 average with eight home runs, 19 RBI and 15 runs scored over 64 at-bats in 17 contests with Double-A Erie. The 21-year-old is considered to be one of Detroit's top overall prospects and a top 100 prospect in baseball, and he is now just one step away from making his major-league debut.

Giants manager Tony Vitello said that Susac exited Sunday's 3-1 extra-inning loss to the Tigers in the bottom of the seventh due to a left knee contusion, Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News reports. Susac went 0-for-2 with a strikeout prior to his departure.

Susac fouled a ball of his knee in the bottom of the fifth and exited the game the next time his turn in the batting order came up two innings later. Fortunately for Susac, Vitello said that X-rays on the rookie catcher's knee returned negative. The 25-year-old is dealing with a significant amount of swelling in his knee and is considered day-to-day heading into Monday's series opener versus the Astros.

Amaya went 2-for-5 with a three-run home run in Sunday's 10-2 win over the Royals.

Amaya hit his fourth home run of the season in the seventh inning, getting him up to 21 RBI as well. The 27-year-old catcher has been splitting time behind the plate with Carson Kelly, with Kelly getting the start on both Friday and Saturday before taking a seat Sunday. Amaya is likely still the 1B to Kelly's 1A, so his overall fantasy value will be capped unless his role grows at some point, but he's capable of producing when given an opportunity.

Jansen (forearm) will begin a minor-league rehab assignment with Double-A Frisco on Tuesday, Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com reports.

Jansen has been sidelined since early June while recovering from a right forearm injury, but he's all set to return to game action this week. The catcher was eligible to be activated from the 60-day injured list Wednesday, so whenever the team feels like he has shaken off the rust and gotten back up to speed, he'll be able to return to the major-league roster. Considering how long he's been out, it wouldn't be a surprise if he requires a lengthy rehab assignment, but a return to the Rangers before the end of August appears likely.

Campusano is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Astros.

The Padres will go with Freddy Fermin behind the dish Sunday after Campusano picked up starts at catcher in the first two contests of the series. Since the All-Star break, Campusano has gotten on base at an excellent .396 clip over 15 games, but he's provided limited counting statistics (no home runs or stolen bases, five RBI and one run).

Rutschman (wrist) will travel with the Red Sox to Toronto and will go through a series of workouts to gauge the progress of his rehab assignment, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.

Rutschman reported to Triple-A Worcester on Saturday and went 1-for-5 with two walks, a double, two RBI and two runs in his two rehab games with the Woo Sox. He caught just five frames Saturday and served as the designated hitter Sunday, and it remains to be seen if the Red Sox will reinstate him without Rutschman having caught a full game. He won't be activated from the injured list Monday but could make his debut for Boston later in the week if his workouts go well.

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

Feduccia will head to the bench after he started behind the plate in each of the Dodgers' previous three contests while going 2-for-8 with a walk and a run scored. Ben Rortvedt will get the nod at catcher Sunday, but Feduccia could end up being the Dodgers' favored option until Will Smith (neck) is ready to come off the 60-day injured list.

Cavanaugh is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Tigers.

Cavanaugh and Daniel Susac continue to operate in a near-even timeshare at catcher for the Giants. Susac will pick up his fifth start Sunday in the Giants' last nine games, while Cavanaugh has been behind the plate for each of the other four contests. Unless one player dramatically separates himself from the other with his performance, the timeshare arrangement could remain in place for the balance of the season.

Jeffers is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Brewers.

Victor Caratini will receive a turn behind the dish while Jeffers rest for the series finale. Jeffers started behind the plate in the Twins' previous two contests and went 2-for-8 with a double, two walks, two runs and an RBI.

Jensen is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cubs.

Jensen has a .583 OPS over his past 18 contests and will take a seat Sunday after a run of 11 consecutive starts. Luke Maile will step in behind the plate to form a battery with starting pitcher Randy Dobnak in the series finale versus Chicago.
