Sweeney went 1-for-3 with a three-run homer and a walk in Sunday's extra-inning win over Cleveland.

Sweeney came up clutch with a three-run blast in the 10th inning to lead Detroit to victory. It was his first long ball since May 12, and he's now 2-for-10 since returning from Triple-A Toledo. Sweeney has produced a lackluster .604 OPS with 27 RBI and 11 extra-base hits through 75 MLB games this season.

Astros general manager Dana Brown said Sunday that Pena (rib) has an "outside chance" of returning from the 10-day injured list prior to the All-Star break, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

That being said, Brown noted that the shortstop has yet to resume baseball activities since landing on the IL on June 30 due to a small fracture on the left side of his ribs, so Pena will almost certainly need to kick his rehab program into high gear within the next day or two if he's going to be activated prior to the Astros' final game of the first half next Sunday versus the Rangers. While Pena has been out, Mauricio Dubon has served as the Astros' primary shortstop, starting at the position in six of the last eight contests.

Short went 3-for-3 with a double, one RBI, a run scored and a walk in Sunday's 5-1 victory over the Dodgers.

Short garnered his second consecutive start at shortstop and made the most of it, notching his first three-hit performance since June 21, 2023 when he was a Tiger. The 30-year-old journeyman joined the Astros on July 2 after slashing .211/.356/.402 with 12 homers over 73 Triple-A games. Short will likely be in the mix for occasional appearances in the Houston infield while Jeremy Pena (rib), Brendan Rodgers (oblique) and Luis Guillorme (hamstring) all remain on the injured list.

The Tigers promoted McGonigle from High-A West Michigan to Double-A Erie on Sunday.

McGonigle had been on a tear since late May after returning from a stint on the 7-day injured list, producing a 371/.464/.643 slash line with seven home runs and three stolen bases in his last 35 games with West Michigan. The 20-year-old shortstop is viewed as one of Detroit's top overall prospects, and with a strong showing at Erie to close out the season, he could put himself in the mix for a promotion to the big leagues at some point in 2026.

Caballero was scratched from the lineup for Sunday's game against the Twins due to right arm soreness, Ryan Bass of FanDuel Sports Network Sun reports.

The 28-year-old was penciled in to start at shortstop, but he instead ended up being removed from the lineup card. The specifics of the injury aren't clear, so Caballero should be considered day-to-day heading into Monday's series opener versus Detroit. Taylor Walls replaced him and will bat seventh.

Kim (calf) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Twins, though he ran at about 80 percent, played catch and took swings in the batting cage prior to the contest, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

The 29-year-old made an early exit in his Rays debut during Friday's 4-3 loss after his right calf started to cramp up, and he'll sit Sunday for a second consecutive game while Taylor Walls draws the start at shortstop. Kim doesn't appear headed for a stint on the injured list but could miss another day or two, depending how his calf responds to the more intensive workouts.

The Orioles transferred Mateo (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Sunday.

Initially placed on the IL on June 7 due to left elbow inflammation, Mateo was on the cusp of returning before he suffered a significant left hamstring strain during a rehab game with Triple-A Norfolk last Sunday. The Orioles are expecting him to miss two or more months due to the hamstring injury, so his move to the 60-day IL won't affect his return timeline. The transaction opened up a spot on the 40-man roster for catcher Alex Jackson, acquired from the Yankees on Sunday.

Smith started at third base and went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in Saturday's 7-4 win over San Diego.

Smith got Texas on the board early when he led off the game with his eighth home run of the season. It was the third time in 2025 that he's gone deep to lead off a contest. Smith started at third base for a second consecutive game and may find a home there against right-handers with Josh Jung having been sent down to Triple-A Round Rock. Smith has been rolling since the beginning of June, posting a .318/.387/.495 slash line with four homers, seven doubles, 10 RBI, two steals and 22 runs over 26 games.

Montgomery went 3-for-5 with a triple and an RBI on Saturday against the Rockies.

Montgomery has started two straight games since being recalled for his big-league debut, hitting seventh and fifth. He recorded the first hits of his big-league career Saturday, including an RBI triple in the first inning. Montgomery has seen his stock as a prospect dip in the last two seasons, but he is still an interesting name to monitor across the second half of the season.

Short went 1-for-2 with a double and two RBI on Saturday against the Dodgers.

Short made his debut with the Astros on July 2 and drew his first start Saturday while hitting ninth. He began the scoring for Houston with a two-RBI double in the third inning. Even with Jeremy Pena (rib) sidelined, Short isn't likely to see consistent playing time moving forward.
