  • Brandon Young SP | BAL

    Orioles' Brandon Young: Beginning rehab assignment

    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.

  • Beau Brieske RP | DET

    Tigers' Beau Brieske: Opening Tuesday's game

    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.

  • Red Sox's Carlos Narvaez: Getting breather Tuesday

    Narvaez is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's contest against the Angels.

    Connor Wong has taken a back seat to Narvaez at catcher for the Red Sox, but this will be Narvaez's second time beginning on the bench over the last three games. He enters play Tuesday with a .809 OPS to Wong's .375 mark.

  • Red Sox's Marcelo Mayer: Out again versus lefty

    Mayer is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Angels.

    The Red Sox are facing a second straight lefty in Yusei Kikuchi, and the left-handed-hitting Mayer has been absent from the lineup for both contests. Abraham Toro will again play third base and bat fifth.

  • Jorbit Vivas 3B | WAS

    Yankees' Jorbit Vivas: Headed back to minors

    The Yankees optioned Vivas to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday.

    The Yankees opted to keep Pablo Reyes around as a utility infielder over Vivas. Vivas has produced a .522 OPS in 22 major-league contests this season.

  • Yankees' Yerry De Los Santos: Back in big leagues

    The Yankees recalled De Los Santos from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday.

    De Los Santos has permitted four runs with a 9:6 K:BB over 12 innings this season during his time with the big club. He will be used in low-leverage spots.

  • Fernando Cruz RP | NYY

    Yankees' Fernando Cruz: Activated from injured list

    The Yankees activated Cruz (shoulder) from the 15-day injured list Tuesday.

    Cruz was sidelined for the past two weeks with right shoulder inflammation. He'll skip a rehab assignment and go right back into a Yankees bullpen that just lost Luke Weaver (hamstring).

  • Luke Weaver RP | PIT

    Yankees' Luke Weaver: IL move made official

    The Yankees placed Weaver on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with a left hamstring strain.

    Weaver suffered the injury while warming up during Sunday's game against the Dodgers and is expected to be sidelined 4-to-6 weeks. Devin Williams will slide back into the closer role for the Yankees while Weaver is shelved.

  • Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Back from injured list Tuesday

    The Yankees reinstated Chisholm (oblique) from the 10-day injured list Tuesday.

    The 27-year-old has been sidelined for just over a month due to an oblique strain but is ready to rejoin the Yankees after going 3-for-9 with a double and a stolen base during a three-game rehab assignment. Chisholm opened the campaign as New York's primary second baseman prior to the injury, but he played third base during the rehab assignment and is expected to man the hot corner going forward.

  • Zach Dezenzo LF | HOU

    Astros' Zach Dezenzo: Capsule strain in hand

    Dezenzo has been diagnosed with a capsule strain in his left hand and will be re-imaged in two weeks, Ari Alexander of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Dezenzo suffered the injury during Saturday's game against the Rays and was placed on the 10-day injured list Sunday. More should be known about a timetable for his return when he's re-imaged, but he's probably looking at a late-June return in a best-case scenario.
