The Red Sox announced that Crawford (knee) underwent successful surgery Thursday to reconstruct the stabilizing sheath of the extensor carpi ulnaris in his right wrist, MLB.com reports.

Initially placed on the injured list before Opening Day due to right patellar tendiopathy, Crawford had advanced to pitching in simulated games in May before plans to send him out on a minor-league rehab assignment were tabled in early June due to right wrist pain. According to Sean McAdam of MassLive.com, manager Alex Cora said June 25 that Crawford sustained the wrist injury in an off-field "accident," but the skipper didn't go into any further details beyond noting that it wasn't due to any irresponsibility on the right-hander's part. Cora said that Crawford's season is "most likely" over as a result of his surgery, so the 29-year-old will turn his focus to returning to full health heading into spring training. Crawford entered arbitration for the first time last winter and is under club control through the 2028 season.

White Sox general manager Chris Getz said Monday that Martin (forearm) will head out on a minor-league rehab assignment later this week, Jack Ankony of SI.com reports.

While Martin won't be ready to return from the 15-day injured list until after the All-Star break, he may need just one or two starts in the minors to build back up after he was initially shelved June 20 due to a right forearm strain. The club revealed that the tentative plan is for Martin to pitch Wednesday and Sunday for Triple-A Charlotte, per Scott Merkin of MLB.com. Before getting hurt, Martin had been pitching effectively for Chicago, covering at least six innings in six straight starts while submitting a 3.55 ERA and 1.03 WHIP.

Schneider is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the White Sox.

Schneider will hit the bench for the series opener in Chicago after he had started in each of the past seven games while going 7-for-22 with two home runs, one double, one walk, five runs and four RBI. With Andres Gimenez (ankle) recently joining Daulton Varsho (hamstring) and Anthony Santander (shoulder) on the injured list, Schneider will likely be in store for at least a semi-regular role with Toronto until the team reclaims some health.

Red Sox manager Alex Cora said Monday that Bregman (quadriceps) will be activated from the 10-day injured list "sooner rather than later," Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.

According to Cora, Bregman "feels great" and will go through "heavy" workouts Monday and Tuesday. Cora did not rule out Bregman being activated later this week during the team's series against the Rays, but a lot will depend on how the third baseman bounces back from Monday's and Tuesday's workouts. Bregman has been sidelined since late May due to a strained right quad.

White Sox general manager Chris Getz said Monday that Robert (hamstring) is expected to be activated from the 10-day injured list within the next couple days, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

Robert is eligible for reinstatement at any time, and the White Sox could add him back to the 26-man active roster at some point during the team's series against the Blue Jays that runs through Wednesday. He's been out since late May with a left hamstring strain, but Robert has been running for a few days and appears likely to bypass a rehab assignment.

The Guardians recalled Noel from Triple-A Columbus on Monday.

Noel was sent down to Columbus a month ago after putting up an ugly .392 OPS and 31.8 percent strikeout rate over 107 plate appearances with Cleveland. He could be up with the big club for a brief spell, as Kyle Manzardo was placed on the family medical emergency list Monday and will be eligible for activation as soon as Thursday.

The Guardians placed Manzardo on the family medical emergency list Monday.

By rule, Manzardo must miss the team's next three games and a maximum of seven contests. The Guardians could mix and match at designated hitter against right-handed pitching until Manzardo returns to the lineup.

Red Sox manager Alex Cora said Monday that Yoshida (shoulder) will "most likely" be activated from the 60-day injured list Wednesday, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.

Yoshida has played five rehab games between Double-A Portland and Triple-A Worcester, going 4-for-14 with a 2:2 K:BB. He is with the Red Sox in Boston and will go through a workout Monday and "probably" another one Tuesday, according to Cora, before being activated for his season debut if all goes well. Yoshida's role upon his return is unclear, as Boston has already been struggling to find regular playing time for all its outfield and designated-hitter options. Yoshida made three starts at DH and two in left field during his rehab assignment.

Baldwin will start in center field and bat eighth in Monday's game against the Blue Jays.

Baldwin will occupy center field for the fifth straight game and the sixth time in seven contests following his promotion from Triple-A Charlotte on July 1. Though Luis Robert (hamstring) will eventually reclaim everyday duties in center when he returns from the injured list, Baldwin's ability to play either corner-outfield spot as well as the three infield positions could allow him to retain steady playing time if he warrants it. Since his call-up, Baldwin has gone 6-for-17 with one home run, two doubles, two walks, three runs, three RBI and one stolen base.

The White Sox recalled Gray from Triple-A Charlotte on Monday.

Gray has spent the entire 2025 season at Charlotte, slashing .280/.349/.493 with nine home runs across 62 contests. The White Sox selected Gray's contract Saturday to add him to the 40-man roster, and the 29-year-old will now join the 26-man active roster after Ryan Noda (quadriceps) was placed on the 10-day injured list Monday in a corresponding move. Gray is likely to be used mostly in a reserve role while he's up with the big club.
