  • Astros' Taylor Trammell: Shelved by groin strain

    The Astros placed Trammell on the 10-day injured list Tuesday with a left groin strain.

    Trammell was hurt in Monday's game versus the Guardians while running the bases. The Astros haven't revealed the grade of the strain, but it's bad enough to keep Trammell sidelined at least for the next 10 days. With Trammell joining Jake Meyers (oblique) on the IL, Brice Matthews is getting a start in center field Tuesday.

  • Jarren Duran CF | BOS

    Red Sox's Jarren Duran: On bench vs. righty

    Duran is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Yankees, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports.

    The 29-year-old outfielder sat two of the previous three games -- with both absences being against a southpaw starter -- but he's not starting Tuesday versus Yankees right-hander Luis Gil. Duran has yet to get on track offensively this season with a .497 OPS through 74 plate appearances, and he's been especially unproductive over his last four games, going 1-for-16 with a stolen base, two runs and six strikeouts.

  • Red Sox's Tyler Samaniego: Officially called up

    The Red Sox recalled Samaniego from Triple-A Worcester on Tuesday.

    The left-hander was sent to Worcester last week but is back in the majors with Sonny Gray (hamstring) landing on the injured list. Samaniego made his first three MLB appearances during his stint with Boston earlier this season, and he went unscored upon with a 4:3 K:BB across 3.2 innings.

  • Red Sox's Kutter Crawford: No structural damage in elbow

    Crawford has been diagnosed with inflammation in his right elbow following an MRI, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports.

    Crawford had to be pulled off his rehab assignment when he developed soreness in his pitching arm during his first rehab outing. He has managed to avoid structural damage, however, and hopes to resume throwing "soon" after a brief shutdown period. Crawford hasn't pitched at the major-league level since 2024 because of injury.

  • Sonny Gray SP | BOS

    Red Sox's Sonny Gray: Moved to IL with hamstring strain

    The Red Sox placed Gray on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with a right hamstring strain.

    The veteran right-hander departed Monday's start against the Tigers after 2.2 frames due to hamstring soreness, and he's been diagnosed with a strain after undergoing medical imaging. Gray will be eligible to be reinstated from the IL in early May and is hopeful it won't be a lengthy stay on the shelf, per Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com, but he's without an official timeline for return. Top prospect Payton Tolle had his start for Triple-A Worcester skipped over the weekend as a contingency plan, and he could soon be promoted to take Gray's rotation spot.

  • Bo Naylor C | CLE

    Guardians' Bo Naylor: Getting breather

    Naylor is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's contest against the Astros.

    It's a routine breather for Naylor, who started at catcher in the first game of the series Monday. Austin Hedges will do the catching and bat eighth Tuesday.

  • Juan Brito SS | CLE

    Guardians' Juan Brito: Playing time slipping

    Brito is not in the lineup for Tuesday's contest versus the Astros.

    Brito's playing time has slipped a bit, as this is the third time he's been absent from the lineup over the last eight games. He's just 1-for-19 with a 1:8 BB:K over that span. Daniel Schneemann will play second base and hit sixth for the Guardians.

  • Rhys Hoskins 1B | CLE

    Guardians' Rhys Hoskins: Exiting starting lineup

    Hoskins is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Astros.

    Hoskins had started each of the previous four tilts, but he'll begin Tuesday's contest on the bench. Chase DeLauter is getting a turn in the designated-hitter spot, and George Valera will patrol right field.

  • Sam Huff C | BAL

    Orioles' Sam Huff: DFA'd by Baltimore

    The Orioles designated Huff for assignment Tuesday.

    The 27-year-old was added to the big-league roster last week as catching depth but has been DFA'd with Adley Rutschman (ankle) returning from the injured list. Huff played in three games during his brief time in the majors and went 2-for-9 with a double, an RBI and a run.

  • Mariners' Dominic Canzone: Homer, two hits in loss

    Canzone went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a double in Monday's 6-4 loss to the A's.

    Canzone extended Seattle's early lead to 3-0 in the second inning with his third homer of the season, a leadoff blast off J.T. Ginn. The 28-year-old Canzone has been limited to the strong side of a platoon to open the year, though he's been hot at the plate, going 5-for-8 with three extra-base hits in his last two contests. Overall, Canzone is slashing .275/.333/.569 with 10 RBI and nine runs scored across 57 plate appearances.
