Correa went 1-for-3 with a double Sunday against Arizona.

Correa recorded double No. 12 of the season Sunday and continues to put together solid production at the plate. He's batting .299 with five home runs and 25 RBI through his first 35 games. Correa should continue to put up decent power numbers as the season progresses.

X-rays on the left ankle of DIaz -- who exited Sunday's game in the fifth inning -- came back negative, but the shortstop will be sent for an MRI.

The Blue Jays are referring to the injury as a sprain for now but have decided to send Diaz for a precautionary MRI to learn more about the injury. With a team day off Monday, consider Diaz day-to-day heading into Tuesday's series opener against Seattle.

Diaz exited Sunday's game against the Rays in the top of the fifth inning with an apparent left ankle injury, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Diaz sustained the injury while running out an RBI infield single, with the shortstop seemingly turning his ankle upon touching the outside of the bag and immediately falling to the infield in pain. Per Steve Carney of Sports Radio 620 WDAE, Diaz was carted off the field, suggesting more than a day-to-day injury may be in play. The Blue Jays will presumably evaluate Diaz in the locker room and issue an update on his condition after the game.

Adrianza will start at shortstop and bat eighth Sunday against the White Sox, Dan Hayes of The Athletic Minnesota reports.

Miguel Sano's (hamstring) placement on the disabled list earlier this month has opened the door for Adrianza to pick up added work at shortstop with Eduardo Escobar shifting over to third base. Sunday will mark Adrianza's third consecutive start, an indication he's moved ahead of Gregorio Petit on the depth chart. As a glove-first player who occupies a low spot in the batting order, Adrianza will likely struggle to provide much fantasy utility even in AL-only formats while he receives regular action.

The Blue Jays optioned Urena to Triple-A Buffalo on Sunday.

Urena had been with the Blue Jays for the past four games while Justin Smoak was on paternity leave, but didn't leave the bench in any of those contests. He'll likely reclaim an everyday role in the Buffalo infield upon heading back to the affiliate.

Anderson went 3-for-4 with a double, two solo homers and an additional run scored in Saturday's loss to the Twins.

Anderson has been in a bit of a rough patch lately, with just one hit in his last 18 at-bats heading into Saturday, but his big performance will hopefully get him going again. He's now hitting .261/.307/.462 with six homers and 10 stolen bases through 31 games this season.

Lindor went 1-for-3 with a walk and a solo homer Saturday against the Yankees.

The home run was a two-out blast in the top of the fifth inning off Sonny Gray. In the bottom half of the same inning, though, the young shortstop turned two outs into two runs by making a pair of errors on a would-be double-play ball. Offensively, though, Lindor has been a cross-category contributor, with a .284 average, five steals and eight home runs on the season so far.

Gordon is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Angels, Greg Johns of MLB.com reports.

Gordon has started all but one game thus far in 2018, so this appears to just be a day of rest for the speedster. Guillermo Heredia takes over in center field as left-hander Tyler Skaggs is on the mound for the Angels.

Diaz went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Friday's 6-2 loss to the Rays.

The homer was his sixth of the season and second in as many days. Despite his current power display, Diaz hasn't had a multi-hit game since April 17, dragging his slash line down to .196/.257/.412 on the season. Once his .173 BABIP begins regressing back towards his .285 career mark, however, Diaz's overall numbers should rise.

Urena was called up from Triple-A Buffalo on Friday, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Urena will head back up to the major leagues after spending 21 games with the Blue Jays last September. The 22-year-old is set to take on the role of reserve infielder during his time with the team.
