Rocchio went 2-for-4 with a three-run homer in Tuesday's loss to the Red Sox.

Rocchio capped off a six-run sixth inning for the Guardians with a three-run blast off Garrett Crochet to put Cleveland ahead. Rocchio's now plated five runs over his last two games and has 11 RBI and three homers over his last 16. Rocchio's blast put him at 39 RBI for the season, surpassing his 2024 total in 53 fewer games.

Arias (hand) is expected to return to the lineup Wednesday's series finale versus the Red Sox, MLB.com reports.

The Guardians had expected Arias to play in Tuesday's 11-7 loss, but the infielder missed a fourth consecutive game. Brayan Rocchio started at shortstop in each of the last four contests while Arias was out.

Walls (groin) will see a specialist Wednesday, MLB.com reports.

Walls has been sidelined since Aug. 12 and had recently begun running and strength exercises. However, he felt discomfort and will now seek additional medical evaluation. The results should provide clarity on whether Walls can return this season, though he doesn't appear to be close to activation.

Smith went 1-for-5 with a stolen base in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to the Diamondbacks.

Smith is up to 10 steals on the year, though he hadn't logged one over his first 41 games in the second half. His previous pilfer came versus the Astros on July 12. Smith has gone 7-for-29 (.241) over his last eight games and continues to see steady time at shortstop versus right-handed pitchers to cover the absence of Corey Seager (appendectomy). On the year, Smith is slashing .255/.334/.375 with nine home runs, 33 RBI, 63 runs scored, 22 doubles and two triples through 500 plate appearances in a utility role.

The Orioles reinstated Mateo (hamstring) from the injured list Tuesday.

Mateo initially landed on the injured list in June with a left elbow injury, but his time on the shelf was extended by a couple of months after he strained his left hamstring during a rehab game at Triple-A Norfolk. Now fully recovered from both injuries, the 30-year-old utility man will rejoin the active roster and likely take on a bench role, though his defensive versatility will boost his odds of cracking the starting nine occasionally. With Tyler Wells (elbow) also returning from the 60-day IL on Tuesday, Corbin Martin and Elvin Rodriguez were DFA'd to make room on the 40-man roster.

Meidroth (ankle) is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game in Minnesota.

Meidroth had to be lifted from Monday's game with a right ankle sprain. He is considered day-to-day. Lenyn Sosa will cover second base for the White Sox on Tuesday while Meidroth recuperates.

Arias (hand) remains out of the lineup for Tuesday's game in Boston.

The expectation had been that Arias would return to action Tuesday, but instead he will miss a fourth straight start with a right hand contusion. Brayan Rocchio will again handle shortstop, while Angel Martinez will step in at second base.

Baez is not in the lineup for Tuesday's contest against the Mets.

Baez has now started just three of the last eight games and two of the last seven versus right-handed pitching. He's slashing .224/.229/.308 with a 1:36 BB:K in the second half. Trey Sweeney will play shortstop and Wenceel Perez will be in center field for the Tigers on Tuesday.

Gonzalez slashed .288/.404/.455 with four home runs, 33 steals, a 16.2 percent walk rate and a 15.8 percent strikeout rate in 52 games in the Dominican Summer League.

The top teenage international prospect to sign on Jan. 15 this year, Gonzalez lived up to the hype in his pro debut. His athleticism was arguably the standout trait during his tour of the DSL, as he registered a 9.7 speed score on FanGraphs while going 33-for-38 (86.8 percent success rate) on the bases. Gonzalez only played shortstop this season and projects to stick there long term.

Atlanta activated Kim (back) from the 10-day injured list Tuesday.

Kim was scooped up from the Rays via waivers Monday and now joins the active roster with his new club. The 29-year-old has been limited to only 24 games this season due to injury and has slashed an uninspiring .214/.290/.321 when on the field. However, Kim should operate as Atlanta's everyday shortstop down the stretch, and with a $16 million player option for 2026, he could be the team's regular at the position next season, as well.
