Blue Jays manager John Schneider said Monday that Santander (shoulder) has rejoined the Blue Jays in Toronto and has progressed to hitting off high-velocity pitching machines, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Santander's activation from the 60-day injured list isn't imminent, but he's finally making tangible progress as he works his way back from a subluxation of his left shoulder. The switch hitter will require a rehab assignment before returning from the IL, and it's uncertain when he'll be cleared for game action in the minors.

Trout is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Rangers, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

After missing a pair of games to begin August while he recovered from an illness, Trout started in each of the Angels' ensuing 19 contests and slashed .231/.383/.323 with one home run, five RBI and 12 runs. He looks to be receiving a pre-planned rest day Monday after a rough weekend series against the Cubs in which he went 0-for-10 with seven strikeouts. Logan O'Hoppe will replace Trout in the lineup as the Angels' designated hitter.

Stanton is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Nationals.

Stanton will get a breather after he started in right field in the final two games of the Yankees' weekend series versus Boston while going 3-for-7 with a solo home run, one double and two additional runs between the contests. His move to the bench for the series opener versus Washington clears a spot in the outfield for Jasson Dominguez.

Polanco went 1-for-3 with a walk, a stolen base and two runs scored in Sunday's 11-4 win over the Athletics.

Polanco picked up his first steal since Aug. 6 versus the White Sox. The infielder is up to six steals on eight attempts this season, his most thefts in any of the last four years. He's added a .247/.314/.444 slash line with 19 home runs, 55 RBI, 47 runs scored and 15 doubles. Polanco is batting just .228 (13-for-57) with three extra-base hits over 18 contests this month.

Yoshida is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Yankees.

For the second time in the series, the left-handed-hitting Yoshida will bow out of the lineup while the Yankees send a left-handed pitcher (Carlos Rodon) to the bump. With Yoshida on the bench, Roman Anthony will serve as the Red Sox's designated hitter, and Jhostynxon Garcia will pick up a start in right field.

Manager Joe Espada said Sunday that Alvarez (hand) has a "strong possibility" of returning from the 60-day injured list when the Astros begin their homestand Tuesday versus the Rockies, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

Alvarez is on track to make his fourth and likely final rehab appearance for Double-A Corpus Christi on Sunday. Through his first three games on the farm, he's made two starts at designated hitter and one in left field, going 5-for-11 with three doubles, three runs, one RBI, one stolen base and a 2:2 BB:K. Alvarez initially injured his right hand on a swing in late April, but he played through the injury before being placed on the IL on May 5.

Stanton went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's loss to the Red Sox.

On a day when the Yankees suffered a blowout loss to their division rival, Stanton at least made sure his team didn't get shut out when he took Garrett Crochet deep in the fourth inning. It was the continuation of a lengthy power surge by the veteran slugger, who has gone deep four times in his past five games and 12 times in his last 25 contests. Stanton is up to 16 long balls on the campaign as he pushes to reach 20 home runs for the fifth straight season despite not getting into any games until mid-June due to elbow injuries.

Keith was scratched from the lineup for Sunday's game against the Royals due to an illness, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

Keith had been slated to start at third base and bat leadoff, but instead Zach McKinstry will get the nod at the hot corner while center fielder Wenceel Perez sets the table. Assuming the illness isn't anything too debilitating, Keith should return to the lineup Monday versus the Athletics. He'd gone 0-for-8 with one walk and five strikeouts over his last three starts, on the heels of a five-game hitting streak.

Diaz (hamstring) will start at first base and bat third Sunday against the Cardinals, Brian Murphy of MLB.com reports.

Diaz sustained a low-grade hamstring strain in the series opener versus St. Louis on Thursday and sat out Friday's 10-6 win, but he'll return to the lineup following Saturday's team off day. The first baseman has collected at least one hit in eight of his past 10 games and has five multi-hit efforts during that span.

Springer went 3-for-6 with a double, a home run, two runs scored and two RBI in Saturday's 7-6 extra-innings win over the Marlins.

The veteran outfielder took Tyler Phillips deep for a solo shot in the seventh inning, giving the Blue Jays a vital insurance run in what was at the time a 4-0 lead. Springer has hit safely in seven straight games since returning from a concussion, batting .345 (10-for-29) with a double, a steal, seven RBI, eight runs and four of his 22 homers on the year.
