The Blue Jays activated Heineman from the 7-day concussion injured list Tuesday, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Heineman missed a little over a week of action with concussion symptoms. He'll serve as Alejandro Kirk's understudy at catcher.

The Blue Jays activated Gimenez (quad) from the 10-day injured list Tuesday, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Gimenez wound up missing nearly a month of action with a right quad strain, but he's been cleared to return to action after going 2-for-12 in four rehab games. The 26-year-old is sporting just a .577 OPS in 36 contests with the Blue Jays in 2025.

O'Hoppe is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's game in Boston.

It appears to be a routine day of rest for O'Hoppe, who caught the previous two games and four of the past five contests. Travis d'Arnaud will be behind the dish and bat sixth for the Angels.

Robert is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Tigers.

White Sox manager Will Venable said that Robert will also remain on the bench Wednesday, as he gets a two-day mental break while battling through a season-long slump, per Kyle Williams of the Chicago Sun-Times. The 27-year-old has gone 1-for-20 over his last seven contests to drag his season batting line down to .177/.266/.286. Michael Taylor will start in center field and bat eighth Tuesday.

Casas (knee) will be off crutches in two weeks and expects to be ready for Opening Day next season, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.

Casas spoke to reporters Tuesday for the first time since he underwent surgery a month ago to repair the ruptured patellar tendon in his left knee. He will spend most of the summer rehabbing at Boston's spring training complex in Florida.

The White Sox recalled Freeman from Triple-A Charlotte on Tuesday.

Freeman has made four relief appearances in the majors this season, permitting two runs over 2.1 frames. The 27-year-old will give Chicago's bullpen a fresh arm.

The White Sox placed Cannon on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with a lower-back strain.

Cannon attempted to pitch through the injury Monday against the Tigers but didn't fare well, allowing five runs over just three innings. He'll be eligible to return June 18, but it's unclear at this point whether he will be ready to go by that date.

Wells is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Guardians.

It's a routine day off for Wells, who started the previous three contests and five of the last six games. J.C. Escarra will be behind the dish and bat eighth for the Yankees.

Young (shoulder) has been sent to High-A Aberdeen to begin a rehab assignment, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

Young has been sidelined for nearly a month with right shoulder discomfort but has been cleared to test things out in a game setting. He's on the 7-day injured list at Triple-A Norfolk and will eventually return to that affiliate when the Orioles decide he's ready.

Brieske will start Tuesday's game against the White Sox, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

Brieske regularly served as an opener for Detroit last season and will receive his first start of 2025 on Tuesday. The right-hander has a 4.95 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and 14:8 K:BB across 20 innings this season and isn't likely to pitcher longer than an inning or two versus Chicago.
