  • Kyler Fedko CF | MIN

    Twins' Kyler Fedko: Expected to have contract selected

    Fedko is expected to have his contract selected from Triple-A St. Paul on Monday, Audra Martin of FanDuel Sports Network North reports.

    Fedko will join the major-league roster for the first time in his professional career. The outfielder has posted a .286 average with 15 home runs, 45 RBI, 44 runs scored and nine stolen bases over 206 at-bats in 58 contests with St. Paul so far this year. Orlando Arcia was designated for assignment by Minnesota on Sunday, clearing room on both the 40-man roster and the major-league roster for Fedko.

  • Kyle Teel C | CHW

    White Sox's Kyle Teel: Starting rehab assignment Tuesday

    Teel (knee/hamstring) will start a minor-league rehab assignment with Triple-A Charlotte on Tuesday, James Fegan of SoxMachine.com reports.

    Teel will attempt to launch a rehab assignment once again after suffering a sprained LCL while on a previous minor-league rehab assignment in late May. The catcher sustained a hamstring injury during the World Baseball Classic before tacking on the knee issue last month. Teel will have plenty of rust to work off with Charlotte, but he is now on the brink of making his 2026 regular-season debut with the White Sox.

  • Ben Rice 1B | NYY

    Yankees' Ben Rice: Launches go-ahead homer

    Rice went 2-for-5 with a two-run homer in Sunday's 8-3 win over the Blue Jays.

    Rice snapped a 3-3 tie in the top of the ninth inning with his two-run blast off Braydon Fisher, his 19th homer this season, though just his second in his last 13 games. Rice had cooled off a bit at the plate of late, going just 2-for-17 (.118) in his previous four contests. He's still slashing an excellent .293/.387/.611 through 279 plate appearances this year with 47 RBI and 51 runs scored.

  • Noah Schultz SP | CHW

    White Sox's Noah Schultz: Set to begin rehab assignment

    Schultz (knee) will begin a minor-league rehab assignment with Triple-A Charlotte on Tuesday, James Fegan of SoxMachine.com reports.

    Schultz completed a bullpen session session Wednesday, and he will now return to the mound with the Triple-A squad. The southpaw has been sidelined since late May while nursing right knee patellar tendinitis, and he'll likely need to make multiple starts with Charlotte before rejoining the major-league roster. Schultz posted an inflated 9.87 ERA and 1.73 WHIP with 13 strikeouts over 17.1 innings in his last four outings before being placed on the 15-day injured list, and he'll look to use his rehab outings as a chance to find his form again.

  • Patrick Corbin SP | TOR

    Blue Jays' Patrick Corbin: Another early exit Sunday

    Corbin did not factor into the decision Sunday against the Yankees, allowing two runs on seven hits while striking out three across 3.2 innings.

    Corbin has totaled just 6.2 innings in his last two starts, allowing seven runs on 11 hits in that span. The veteran left-hander's ERA now sits at 4.57 through 13 starts (61 innings) this season with a 1.48 WHIP and 43:20 K:BB. Corbin will likely get one more start, tentatively scheduled to come next week on the road against the Cubs, before Shane Bieber (elbow) is ready to return to the rotation.

  • Angels' Grayson Rodriguez: Exits early Sunday

    Rodriguez (undisclosed) exited Sunday's start against the Rays in the third inning, Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun reports.

    Rodriguez hit Cedric Mullins with an 83 mph changeup with one out in the top of the third frame, and he immediately started grimacing. The Angels promptly removed him from the contest, and it's unclear what injury the right-handed pitcher may be dealing with. More information on Rodriguez's status will likely be provided in the near future.

  • Will Warren SP | NYY

    Yankees' Will Warren: Goes four innings Sunday

    Warren did not factor into the decision Sunday against the Blue Jays, allowing two runs on eight hits and three walks over four innings. He struck out one.

    While Warren managed to work his way around significant damage Sunday, he'd make it through only four innings after throwing 98 pitches. The right-hander has failed to make it through five innings in consecutive starts after posting a 2.78 ERA over 22.2 innings over his previous four outings. Overall, Warren is 7-1 with a 3.47 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 76:24 K:BB across 14 starts (72.2 innings) this season. He's currently lined up to face the Reds at home in his next outing.

  • Peter Lambert SP | HOU

    Astros' Peter Lambert: Set to start Wednesday

    Lambert (hand) is listed as Houston's probable starting pitcher for Wednesday's game against Detroit, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

    The right-hander departed his previous start last Wednesday versus the Angels after getting hit in the hand by a comebacker, but he was able to make it through his between-starts bullpen session without issue and won't be forced to miss a turn through the rotation. Lambert has a 3-0 record with a 3.32 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and 18:11 K:BB in 21.2 innings across his past four starts.

  • Mickey Gasper DH | BOS

    Red Sox's Mickey Gasper: Nursing tight groin

    Red Sox interim manager Chad Tracy said that Gasper is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rangers due to slight groin tightness, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.

    Gasper started the previous seven games -- three at catcher, four at designated hitter -- but will be forced to the bench Sunday due to the groin issue. The injury doesn't seem to be a serious concern, and the 30-year-old will have Monday's team off day to aid in his recovery. Carlos Narvaez is starting behind the plate Sunday for Boston.

  • Michael Helman CF | TEX

    Rangers' Michael Helman: Shifts to injured list

    The Rangers placed Helman (hand) on the 10-day injured list Sunday.

    The 30-year-old was diagnosed with multiple fractures in his right hand after being hit by a pitch Saturday against the Red Sox, so the move to the IL is hardly a surprise. It's a literal tough break for Helman, who appeared set for increased playing time after Evan Carter (oblique) landed on the shelf earlier in the day. Alejandro Osuna was called up Sunday to bolster Texas' outfield depth.
