Robles (shoulder) may advance to baseball activities before the end of July, but he is not expected back before September, MLB.com reports.

Robles began the strength-building portion of his rehab from a dislocated left shoulder in early June, which is expected to last around six weeks before he advances to light baseball activity, and as of June 30 Robles was on track in his rehab. If he avoids setbacks, the strength-building portion of his rehab could conclude in mid-to-late July, at which point he should be able to advance to baseball activity. It's not an exact timeline, as there could be setbacks or Robles could advance quicker than expected for the Mariners, but September has been mentioned twice during the process as an expected return date.

Caminero went 1-for-4 with two RBI on Sunday against the Twins.

Caminero had some timely hitting Sunday, driving in runs on a fielder's choice and sacrifice fly. He went 3-for-12 across the Rays' weekend series against the Twins, but he still managed at least one RBI in all three contests. Caminero has been exceptionally productive since late May, racking up 13 home runs with 37 RBI and 33 runs scored while hitting .283 across his last 40 games.

Little gave up a hit and a walk in a scoreless eighth inning Sunday to record his 16th hold of the season in a win over the Angels. He struck out one.

The 28-year-old southpaw was a first-round pick of the Cubs back in 2017, and that talent has finally shown through this season in a high-leverage relief role. Little's 16 holds leads the Blue Jays by a wide margin -- Yariel Rodriguez is second with 10 -- and has him sixth in the American League, six back of Houston's Bryan Abreu. Little backs up that setup success with a 2.18 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 58:27 K:BB through 41.1 innings.

Loperfido went 1-for-3 with an RBI in Sunday's win over the Angels.

Getting the start in right field and batting eighth in his season debut for the Blue Jays, Loperfido made an instant impact when he brought Myles Straw home with a fourth-inning single, although he got caught in a rundown and tagged out trying to advance to second base. Loperfido had been on a roll at Triple-A Buffalo, slashing .303/.343/.455 with seven doubles and a homer over his last 15 games prior to his promotion Sunday, but it's not clear how much playing time he'll see during his current stint in the majors as Toronto has plenty of options for the corner outfield spots.

Toro went 2-for-3 with a walk in Sunday's 6-4 win over the Nationals.

Toro scuffled during the middle of June, going 8-for-46 (.174) across 14 games, but has turned it around. He's 10-for-27 (.370) with six walks and four RBI over the last eight contests. Toro maintains a hold as the primary starter at first base for now.

Lee (4-0) tossed 1.2 scoreless innings of relief to earn the win in Sunday's 7-2, extra-inning victory over Cleveland. He allowed a hit and a walk while striking out one.

Lee retired the last two batters of the eighth inning and then worked the ninth, which set him up for the win when the Tigers erupted for six runs in the top of the 10th. The righty has been effective in his rookie season, posting a 2.05 ERA, 0.91 WHIP and 28 strikeouts across 30.2 innings. Lee has also managed to give Detroit some length out of the bullpen, as he's retired four or more batters 11 times through his 25 appearances to date.

Walls went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Sunday against the Twins.

Walls' playing time has fluctuated this season, and he's likely to primarily become a fielding replacement once Ha-Seong Kim (calf) is able to return to the lineup. However, Walls took advantage of his start Sunday, popping his third home run of the season to lead off the third inning. Despite the positive performance, he's gone just 3-for-22 across his last seven starts.

Story went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Sunday's 6-4 win over Washington.

Story piled on in the first inning, finishing off Boston's four-run frame with a two-run homer, his 14th of the season. He had himself a nice weekend in the nation's capital, going 6-for-15 with two home runs and six RBI. Story has hit safely in eight straight contests, going 15-for-32 (.469) with three home runs, four doubles, 12 RBI, three steals and nine runs scored.

Greene went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run in Sunday's 7-2, extra-inning win over Cleveland.

Greene waited for the 10th inning to make his mark Sunday, launching his 22nd home run of the season as the Tigers put up six runs in the frame to run away with the victory. The star outfielder will be starting in the All-Star Game this year for the first time in his career, and he's certainly earned the honor with a .286/.340/.539 slash line and 71 RBI through 89 games. Greene is ninth in the majors in home runs and sixth in RBI.

Aranda went 3-for-5 with two RBI on Sunday against the Twins.

Aranda delivered RBI singles in the fourth and eighth innings while also recording his second three-hit game in his last 12 starts. He's hit .292 to go along with two home runs, five runs scored and six RBI in that span. Aranda is in the midst of a breakout season, maintaining a .383 wOBA and 151 wRC+ across the first half of the campaign.
