Correa is out of the lineup Sunday against the Twins.

Manager A.J. Hinch is just building in a day of rest for the budding superstar, who recorded one hit in seven at-bats and walked three times in the first two games of the series. Marwin Gonzalez will man shortstop in place of Correa on Sunday.

Tejada is out of the lineup Sunday against the Cubs.

The Orioles are giving regular second baseman Jonathan Schoop a rare look at shortstop Sunday, so Tejada will find himself on the bench for the first time in the series. Unless Schoop proves to be a quick study at the position, Tejada should be in line for regular starts at shortstop until J.J. Hardy (wrist, rib) is cleared to return from the 10-day disabled list.

Anderson went 2-for-4 and committed his 20th error of the season in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Mariners.

Manager Rick Renteria continues to preach patience with Anderson, who showed promise during his rookie season in 2016 but has experienced a noticeable offensive dropoff in 2017. Compounding the 24-year-old's struggles is his league-worst defense at shortstop, which doesn't mean much to those in fantasy circles but could eventually eat into his playing time and be a contributing factor to his offense. There is not a ready replacement in the system, and the White Sox have invested six years in Anderson, so Renteria will give him a long leash before making a change. Fantasy owners don't have to be as patient with him.

Featherston was optioned to Triple-A Durham on Saturday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Tim Beckham is set to come off the DL after missing time with an ankle injury, bringing an end to Featherston's extended stay in the big leagues. The 27-year-old was originally brought in as an injury replacement for Brad Miller, but his .184 average through 38 at-bats won't earn him an extensive role with the squad. Featherston returns to Triple-A, where he slashed .270/.370/.394 over 46 games for Lehigh Valley before being traded to Tampa Bay.

Yrizarri was traded to the White Sox on Saturday.

Acquired from Texas in exchange for international signing bonus money, Yrizarri will add to one of the best farm systems in all of baseball. The 20-year-old was a top-20 prospect for the Rangers and had been hitting .258 with seven home runs, 37 RBI and 27 extra-base hits over 82 games combined at Low-A Hickory and High-A Down East this season.

Fletcher was promoted to Triple-A Salt Lake on Saturday.

Fletcher played 84 games at the Double-A level over the last two seasons, and was hitting .276/.341/.354 with one home run and 22 RBI this year at the time of his promotion. The second baseman is one of the top 20 prospects in the Angels' system and has displayed the ability to hit at each stage of his professional career thus far. Although he's not a power hitter by any means, Fletcher grinds out at-bats, and has dropped his strikeout rate to just 11 percent this season. He has the ability to play at both middle-infield positions, but will likely need some quality time with Salt Lake before gaining an opportunity in the big leagues.

Mondesi was selected to represent Omaha in the Triple-A All-Star Game but chose to sit out for precautionary reasons, Maria Torres of The Kansas City Star reports.

Mondesi, who surprisingly captured an Opening Day starting role with the Royals only to be demoted two weeks later, entered the All-Star break with a .316 batting average and tied for second in the league with 18 stolen bases for Omaha. Projected as the Royals' future shortstop, Mondesi admitted to losing his focus while at the big-league level. "I get it now. I wanted to do too many things at the same time and, really, that didn't work," he said. "You have to learn to separate your game from the game of your teammates. Everyone plays their own role."

Adames went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in the International League All-Stars' 6-4 loss to the Pacific Coast League All-Stars in Wednesday's Triple-A All-Star Game.

The 21-year-old enjoyed a strong finish to the first half, hitting .297 with two home runs and seven RBI in the last 10 games prior to the break. Adames has been progressively improving as he's adjusted to Triple-A pitching, and he's now slashing .277/.363/.431 with 18 doubles, five triples, seven homers and 40 RBI over his first 82 games for Durham.

Mondesi exited Triple-A Omaha's Sunday game with an apparent injury, Storm Chasers radio broadcaster Donny Baarns reports.

Mondesi apparently tweaked something like attempting to get out of the way of an arrant pitch. The details of the injury have not yet been revealed. He'll be considered day-to-day.

O'Malley (shoulder) went 2-for-2 with a triple, three walks and three runs as the designated hitter for Rookie-level Arizona on Saturday, Greg Johns of MLB.com reports.

The utility man couldn't have asked for a better 2017 debut, and is likely in for at least several more games at the Rookie level before taking his rehab up the organizational ranks. O'Malley slashed .229/.299/.319 with two home runs and 17 RBI over 89 games with the Mariners last season in what was his first taste of extended big-league action. If he remains free of setbacks, O'Malley should be cleared for a return to the big-league club at some point next month, although how much playing time he'll see will largely depend on the club's injury situation at the time.
