Lux (shoulder) went 1-for-4 with two RBI, a walk and a stolen base in a rehab game for Triple-A Durham on Sunday.

Since resuming his rehab assignment June 30, Lux has gone 7-for-24 with five walks, two steals and three runs scored over seven outings. The 28-year-old has been bitten by the injury bug on several occasions this year, first dealing with a right shoulder injury in the spring, next spraining his ankle during an April 11 rehab contest and then getting shut down May 12 due to left shoulder inflammation. Once Lux is finally ready to make his Rays debut, he'll likely be competing with Richie Palacios for reps at second base and Taylor Walls at shortstop.

The Astros promoted Neyens from Single-A Fayetteville to High-A Asheville on Monday, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

Neyens will begin the second half of the season with the Astros' South Atlantic League affiliate after opening his professional career in impressive fashion at Fayetteville. The No. 21 overall pick in the 2025 First-Year Player Draft, Neyens totaled 14 home runs and 16 stolen bases while slashing .240/.449/.462 with a 25.9 percent walk rate and 30.2 percent strikeout rate across 305 plate appearances in the Carolina League.

Atlanta announced Monday that Kim (finger) will begin a rehab assignment in the rookie-level Florida Complex League.

Kim landed on the 10-day injured list July 4 after experiencing inflammation in his surgically repaired right middle finger, but he doesn't look like he'll be in store for a lengthy shutdown. He'll likely play at least a couple games in the FCL early this week before Atlanta decides whether to activate him ahead of its next game Friday versus the Rangers or have him continue his rehab assignment with a higher-level affiliate. After returning from a season-opening stint on the shelf and debuting for Atlanta on May 12, Kim produced a lowly .068/.171/.068 slash line over 82 plate appearances before landing back on the shelf. He'll likely have to settle for a reserve role in the middle infield once he's reinstated.

Crawford went 3-for-4 with two doubles, three RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 8-2 win over Tampa Bay.

Crawford extended Seattle's lead to 3-0 in the second inning with his two-out, two-run double off Ian Seymour before adding a third RBI with his second double in the ninth. It's a nice way to head into the All-Star break for Crawford, who'd gone 13 games without an RBI prior to Sunday -- he went 8-for-52 (.154) with a .453 OPS over that span. Overall, Crawford is slashing .218/.334/.359 with 10 homers, 38 runs scored, 28 RBI and one steal through 335 plate appearances this season.

Adames went 3-for-4 with an RBI in Sunday's win over Colorado.

Adames led all players in Sunday's contest with three hits, with his RBI single in the eighth inning extending San Francisco's lead to 3-1. It marked the shortstop's first three-hit effort since May 31 and his fifth game with at least three knocks this season. The 30-year-old will head into the All-Star break slashing .230/.281/.420 with 15 homers, 37 RBI, 45 runs and two stolen bases across 91 games.

Rocchio went 2-for-5 with a home run, two RBI and two runs scored in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Marlins.

After collecting an RBI single to open the scoring in his first plate appearance, Rocchio extended Cleveland's lead in the fifth inning by taking Michael Petersen deep for his eighth home run of the season. The long ball matched his career high from 2024, but he has reached the mark in 50 fewer games this time around. The shortstop has been hot lately, batting .317 with three home runs and 10 RBI over his last 11 games.

Brewers manager Pat Murphy said Sunday that Williams is managing a minor wrist injury, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

The Brewers bolstered their infield depth by acquiring Braden Shewmake from the Astros on Sunday, but that trade may not have been necessary if Williams wasn't banged up. The 23-year-old hasn't seen the field for Triple-A Nashville since Tuesday but currently remains on the active roster, which supports the notion that the injury isn't viewed as a serious concern.

Lindor went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and an RBI double in Sunday's 3-2, extra-inning loss to the Red Sox.

Lindor was responsible for all of New York's offense Sunday -- he opened the scoring with an RBI double in the first inning before extending the lead to 2-0 in the sixth with a solo shot off Brayan Bello. It's a nice way to head into the All-Star break for Lindor, who'd gone just 2-for-20 in his past six games coming into the day. Overall, he's slashing .216/.298/.373 with five homers, 12 RBI, 22 runs scored and two steals across 171 plate appearances this year.

Gray is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels.

Though he had started against three straight right-handed pitchers, Gray will give way to Ryan Kreidler on Sunday against Angels righty Jose Soriano. Gray could still rank as the Twins' preferred option at shortstop coming out of the All-Star break, as Kreidler has fizzled at the plate of late. Since churning out back-to-back three-hit performances June 20 and 21, Kreidler has slashed .167/.200/.250 over his subsequent 15 games.

Wilson went 2-for-4 with a triple in Saturday's loss to the White Sox.

Wilson accounted for half of his club's four hits, including his first triple of the campaign, as the Athletics' losing streak reached eight games. After going hitless in his first two games back from the injured list, the shortstop has recorded two hits in each of the past three contests. Overall, the 24-year-old is slashing .282/.315/.391 with four homers, 26 RBI, 24 runs and two stolen bases across 55 games in 2026.
