Story went 2-for-3 with a double and three RBI in Sunday's 3-1 win over Atlanta.

Story's first-inning, bases-clearing double was inches away from being a home run. He nearly had a home run in each game of the weekend series in Atlanta. Story homered Friday and was robbed by Michael Harris on Saturday prior to Sunday's close call. Those are encouraging signs for Story, who entered the series with a .581 OPS over 54 games.

Jordan was promoted to Triple-A Worcester on Sunday, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.

Jordan, who plays both corner infield positions, slashed .320/.415/.513 with six home runs, 11 doubles, three steals, 37 RBI and 30 runs scored over 44 games (176 plate appearances) for Double-A Portland. He was once a highly regarded prospect but underwhelming offensive numbers in 2024 took some of the luster off Jordan. His work at Portland this season could put him back on the radar, and his ability to play first base (28 starts in 2025) could come in handy later this season for Boston, which is operating without Triston Casas (knee) for the rest of the season.

Semien went 2-for-2 with two walks, a double, a stolen base and three runs scored in Sunday's 8-1 win over the Cardinals.

Semien has caught fire with a three-game hit streak, during which he's gone 7-for-8 with three walks, two extra-base hits, two steals, three RBI and six runs scored. His .201 average is the highest its been since Opening Day.

Ramirez went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Angels.

Ramirez led off the fourth inning with his 11th homer of the season and second in as many contests. After collecting 13 multi-hit games during the month of May (.386/.451/.634), Ramirez picked up where he left off on the first day of June. He leads the Guardians with 11 homers and is tied for the lead with 29 RBI.

Jones went 2-for-3 with two RBI in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Angels.

Jones delivered a two-run single in the fourth inning plated the Guardians final two runs. He's hit safely in four straight, with three of those being multi-hit efforts, and knocked in at least one run in those four contests. After enduring a season-opening slump, Jones appears to be getting on track. Over the last 16 games, the outfielder is 16-for-48 (.333) with 10 RBI. The surge has lifted him above the Mendoza line for the first time since Opening Day.

Kim (shoulder) started at second base Sunday, continuing his rehab assignment with Triple-A Durham, MLB.com reports.

Kim made his fifth total appearance with Durham on Sunday, but it marked the first time he fielded a position. Overall, he's gone 2-for-16 with two walks, two RBI and a stolen base. Kim should be activated by mid-June.

Lewis went 0-for-2 and was pulled for a pinch hitter in the eighth inning in Sunday's 2-1 loss to the Mariners. He's in an 0-for-30 slump at the plate.

Lewis is hitting just .127/.195/.392 in 21 games since returning from a hamstring injury. While Lewis has been a bit unlucky with a .225 xBA and .140 BABIP, he also struggled at the end of last season, hitting .181 with a .500 OPS in September. It's not out of the question he could be sent to Triple-A to get back on track. Lewis being pulled for a pinch hitter late in a close game late could indicate the Twins may be ready to take action on his struggles.

Gilbert (knee) is set to begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Charlotte on Tuesday, MLB.com reports.

Gilbert has been sidelined since May 17 but is set to make a significant step in his recovery. It's unclear how many appearances he'll make with Charlotte prior to being activated.

Tauchman went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a triple Sunday against the Orioles.

Tauchman extended his hitting streak to five games, four of which have been multi-hit performances. He's also recorded an extra-base hit in each of his last four starts, including his second long ball of the year Sunday. Tauchman is locked into the second spot in the White Sox order against right-handed pitching and is providing solid production since returning from the injured list May 23.

Raleigh went 1-for-4 with a solo home run during Sunday's 2-1 win over the Twins.

Raleigh went on a tear to end May and has carried some momentum into June. Since May 16 (16 games), Raleigh has launched 10 home runs and driven in 17 runs while going 18-for-59 (.305) at the plate. He's gone yard in three consecutive games and has the lead for most home runs in baseball with 23. In 253 plate appearances, Raleigh boasts a 1.016 OPS.
