Bryan Ramos 3B | BAL
White Sox's Bryan Ramos: Moves up from Triple-A
The White Sox recalled Ramos from Triple-A Charlotte on Monday.
The 23-year-old third baseman got his first taste of the big leagues last season, appearing in 32 games with Chicago and slashing .202/.252/.333 with three home runs, 11 RBI, 13 runs scored and a 7:22 BB:K across 108 plate appearances. He's spent the entire 2025 season at Triple-A, producing a .218/.317/.391 slash line with 14 home runs and 13 stolen bases over 392 trips to the plate. Ramos is unlikely to be in line for regular playing time with the White Sox in September, at least not right away.

Masataka Yoshida LF | BOS
Red Sox's Masataka Yoshida: Out of lineup versus lefty
Yoshida is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Guardians.
Yoshida had started in all three of the Red Sox's games versus Pittsburgh over the weekend and went 2-for-10 with two walks and one run, but he'll head to the bench Monday while the Guardians send lefty Parker Messick to the hill. Rob Refsnyder will replace Yoshida in the lineup at designated hitter.

Colt Keith 3B | DET
Tigers' Colt Keith: Sitting against southpaw
Keith is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Mets, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.
After starting in each of the Tigers' last six games, the left-handed-hitting Keith will retreat to the bench while the Mets send southpaw Sean Manaea to the hill for the series opener. Keith is slashing just .143/.200/.167 over 45 plate appearances versus lefties this season.

Masataka Yoshida LF | BOS
Red Sox's Masataka Yoshida: Finishes month on sour note
Yoshida served as the designated hitter and went 0-for-4 in Sunday's 5-2 win over Pittsburgh.
Yoshida ended August on a down note. Over the final 12 games of the month, he had a .412 OPS with one extra-base hit and zero RBI. He's now batting just .224 with a .609 OPS and two home runs since his return to Boston in early July. It's fair to wonder how long Yoshida's leash is at DH given the limited impact his bat has made. Once Wilyer Abreu (calf) is ready to come off the IL, Yoshida's playing time should take a hit.

Adrian Del Castillo C | ARI
Diamondbacks' Adrian Del Castillo: First start in four games
Del Castillo started at catcher and went 2-for-3 with an RBI in Sunday's 5-4 loss to the Dodgers.
Del Castillo was back in the starting nine after three straight games on the bench. With James McCann tending to a sore back, Del Castillo moves up the ladder to primary backup behind Gabriel Moreno. This was Del Castillo's fourth start behind the plate since being called up after the All-Star break.

Joc Pederson DH | TEX
Rangers' Joc Pederson: Goes yard again
Pederson went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run and an RBI double during Sunday's 9-6 win over the Athletics.
The 33-year-old tagged J.T. Ginn for a two-run homer in the first inning, marking Pederson's fourth home run in his last 38 plate appearances spanning nine games. He had gone yard just four times in 195 plate appearances before the stretch. In those nine games, Pederson is 12-for-38 (.316) with 12 RBI and three doubles.

Rafael Devers 3B | SF
Giants' Rafael Devers: Supplies early offense in win
Devers went 3-for-5 with a solo home run, a double, a second RBI and two total runs scored in Sunday's 13-2 win over the Orioles.
Devers knocked in the Giants' first two runs in the romp, hitting a solo shot in the first inning before adding an RBI single in the third. He closed out August in good form, hitting five homers and supplying 12 RBI over his last 13 games of the month. He's now at a .262/.381/.484 slash line with 28 homers, 93 RBI, 81 runs scored, one stolen base and 30 doubles across 138 contests between San Francisco and Boston this year.

Marcell Ozuna DH | PIT
Braves' Marcell Ozuna: On bench again Sunday
Ozuna is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Phillies.
It's the second straight lineup absence for Ozuna, who is batting .108 (4-for-37) over his past 12 games and is without a homer since Aug. 13. Ronald Acuna is resting his legs as the designated hitter Sunday, which opens up right field for Eli White.

Josh Bell DH | MIN
Nationals' Josh Bell: Taking seat for finale
Bell is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rays.
The switch-hitting Bell has produced a lowly 51 wRC+ against left-handed pitching this season, so he'll retreat to the bench Sunday while the Rays send southpaw Ian Seymour to the hill. Andres Chaparro will spell Bell at first base and bat cleanup.

Yandy Diaz 1B | TB
Rays' Yandy Diaz: Receiving rest Sunday
Diaz is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Diaz will receive a breather after starting six stright games while going 8-for-23 with a solo home run, three doubles, two walks and two additional runs. Bob Seymour will start at first base and Brandon Lowe will serve as the Rays' designated hitter.
