Cecconi (6-6) earned the win Monday against the Royals, allowing one hit and three walks over eight scoreless innings with three strikeouts.

The Cleveland right-hander turned in his second scoreless outing of the season -- with the first coming June 22 against the Athletics -- as he picked up his 10th quality start. This dazzling performance was a welcome sight for Cecconi, who had struggled with a 6.19 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 35:8 K:BB across 52.1 innings in nine post-All-Star break starts. Through 115.1 total frames, the 26-year-old now sports a 4.45 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 94:29 K:BB. He currently lines up to make his next start at home against the White Sox this weekend.

Bergert (2-2) allowed eight runs on 11 hits and three walks over 3.1 innings to take the loss Monday against Cleveland. He struck out three.

Despite not conceding a homer, Bergert was absolutely lit up in this 77-pitch appearance, coughing up eight runs and 11 hits -- both setting career worsts. The rookie right-hander completely unraveled in the fourth inning, when he gave up six runs on six hits before being relieved by Daniel Lynch. Thanks to this performance, Bergert's ERA ballooned from 2.61 to 3.48 across 72.1 total frames with the Royals and Padres. The 25-year-old projects for tough matchup in his next start, which is currently scheduled to come at Philadelphia this weekend.

Wantz (elbow) threw a scoreless inning and struck out one during Saturday's game against Triple-A Gwinnett.

Wantz was officially activated from the 60-day injured list Sept. 1 after recovering from right elbow surgery. He's looked sharp in three appearances since his return to Triple-A, firing three scoreless frames while registering two strikeouts and one walk.

Martinez (undisclosed) was released by Baltimore on Sept. 4.

Martinez appeared in 16 games at Triple-A Norfolk this season, recording a 4.96 ERA and 1.99 WHIP with 21 strikeouts across 16.1 innings. He missed a good chunk of the season while on the mend from an undisclosed injury and hadn't yet returned from a rehab assignment before being handed his release.

Rivas will start at second base and bat ninth in Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

Since being called up from Triple-A Tacoma when the Mariners' active roster expanded from 26 to 28 men, Rivas has gone 3-for-10 with a pair of extra-base hits and two walks. Though the sample has been small, Rivas' performance appears to have at least temporarily allowed him to overtake Cole Young as Seattle's preferred option at the keystone. The switch-hitting Rivas will be included in the starting nine for the third time in four games, including a second straight matchup versus a right-handed starting pitcher (Miles Mikolas).

Adell has been scratched from Monday's game against the Twins due to vertigo, Erica Weston of Bally Sports West reports.

Adell was initially penciled in to man right field in Monday's series opener, but he's been unable to put this issue behind him after also experiencing the illness Sunday, resulting in his removal from the matchup. He'll continue to be considered day-to-day moving forward. Matthew Lugo will draw the start in right field and bat seventh in Adell's absence.

Arias (undisclosed) exited Monday's contest against the Royals in the sixth inning, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.

Arias struck out to end the fourth inning, ultimately prompting manager Stephen Vogt to come check on him. The infielder remained in the game for the fifth inning, but he did end up leaving the contest prior to the sixth. It's unclear what Arias is dealing with, and more information on his status will likely come in the near future. Angel Martinez replaced Arias in the field for the time being, batting seventh versus Kansas City.

Abreu (calf) is on track to return within the next week, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports.

Abreu was cleared to participate in running drills over the weekend, and the team has since provided a more concrete timeline for his return from a right calf strain. Skipper Alex Cora noted that activating Abreu over the weekend against the Yankees isn't a possibility, but it's looking like a return during the team's series against the Athletics, which runs from Sept. 16 to Sept. 18, is the most likely scenario.

Thomas (foot) will see a specialist after experiencing pain while on his rehab assignment, SI.com reports.

Thomas was expected to make a start in center field at Double-A Akron on Sunday, but he was scratched due to right foot pain. He'll meet with a specialist at some point this week, at which time the team should have a better idea on when he could make his return from the 10-day injured list. At the very least, this latest mishap will presumably cost Thomas at least a few more days.

The Angels transferred Soler (back) from the 10-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Monday.

Soler has been on the shelf since July 26 while recovering from low back inflammation, and though he's currently taking part in baseball activities, his move to the 60-day IL means that the Angels don't anticipate him returning until the final week of the season. Before being shut down, Soler hit .215 with 12 home runs, 34 RBI and 31 runs in 82 games.
