Angels' Denzer Guzman: Swats second long ball

Guzman hit the second of two Angels homers in the second inning, going 415 feet deep to left field. It was his second home run (and fourth overall hit) through six games as a pro. Though he's shown good pop during his short time in the majors, Guzman has also struck out in a whopping 12 of his 20 plate appearances.

Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Reaches 30-30 mark
Chisholm went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's loss to Baltimore.
Chisholm accounted for the Yankees' only runs in the game with his homer to right-center field in the seventh inning. The long ball was his 30th of the campaign (a career high) and, paired with his 30 thefts, put him in rarified air as just the third Yankees player with a 30-30 season (Bobby Bonds and Alfonso Soriano are the others). Juan Soto of the Mets is the only other MLB player to reach the 30-30 mark so far this season.

Keider Montero SP | DET
Tigers' Keider Montero: Picking up another start
Montero is slated to start Saturday's game against Atlanta at Comerica Park.
After being called up from Triple-A Toledo on Sept. 3, Montero made his first two appearances with the Tigers as a reliever before being called upon to make a start in Miami last Sunday. The right-hander acquitted himself well in that outing, earning a win while striking out five over five shutout innings. He'll be rewarded with another turn through the rotation as a result of his prior performance, and he could have a slightly longer leash after tossing just 76 pitches against the Marlins before being removed from the contest.

A right hip impingement has kept White on the shelf since mid-August. He began a rehab assignment in Triple-A on Aug. 28 and has since given up just two runs over 11.2 innings while striking out nine batters and walking five. Now fully healthy, he'll stay put in the minors, although the White Sox could promote him during the final week of the regular season to give their bullpen a fresh arm.
