The Tigers traded Rogers to the Orioles in exchange for pitching prospect Zane Barnhart on Thursday.

The Orioles have been dealing with injuries at the catcher position, with both Adley Rutschman (wrist) and Samuel Basallo (shoulder) on the 10-day injured list. Chadwick Tromp and Yohel Pozo have been filling in behind the plate. Rogers doesn't offer much upside with his bat but brings some veteran stability to a turbulent catching situation just a couple days after being designated for assignment by Detroit.

Chisholm was removed from Thursday's game against the White Sox with an apparent leg injury, Brendan Kuty of The Athletic reports.

Chisholm limped back to the dugout after grounding out in the ninth inning, and although he was able to remain in the game on defense, the Yankees lifted him for a pinch runner after the White Sox intentionally walked him in the 11th frame. It's unknown what exactly the star infielder is dealing with, but the team should provide more details in the near future.

Caglianone went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer in Thursday's 4-3 loss to the Twins.

Caglianone gave Kansas City the lead in the third inning with a 438-foot blast off Bailey Ober, his 17th homer of the season and first since July 19. Caglianone has logged two hits in back-to-back contests after going 0-for-18 in his previous six games. Overall, the 23-year-old is slashing .254/.313/.455 with 40 RBI and 47 runs scored across 390 plate appearances this year.

Clemens went 1-for-4 with a grand slam in Thursday's 4-3 victory over the Royals.

Down to his final strike, Clemens launched a Matt Strahm slider over the right-field fence for a grand slam, giving the Twins an improbable 4-3 victory. It was Clemens' 19th homer of the season, matching his career high, and his fifth off a left-handed pitcher. The 30-year-old, who got the start in right field Thursday, has gone 10-for-33 (.303) over his last eight games, boosting his slash line to .244/.300/.493 across 382 plate appearances this year with 53 RBI, 51 runs scored and seven stolen bases.

Ober did not factor into the decision Thursday against the Royals, allowing three runs (two earned) on four hits and two walks across six innings. He struck out three.

Both of the earned runs allowed by Ober came on a Jac Caglianone homer in the third inning, the first long ball that the right-hander has given up in his last three starts. Still, it was a strong outing overall for Ober, as he logged his first quality start in his last seven outings. For this season, Ober is 7-3 with a 4.45 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 63:24 K:BB across 16 starts (87 innings). He's tentatively in line to face the Royals again on the road his next time out.

Cameron allowed just one hit and two walks across eight scoreless innings in a no-decision Thursday against the Twins. He struck out seven.

Cameron was nearly perfect Thursday, as he held the Twins without a hit through six innings before Ryan Jeffers led off the seventh with a single. Cameron has now held opponents scoreless in back-to-back starts, allowing just three hits across 13 frames in that span. The southpaw has lowered his ERA to 4.59 across 115.2 innings this season with a 1.34 WHIP and 107:39 K:BB. Cameron will look to keep rolling in his next outing, tentatively scheduled as a rematch with Minnesota next week at home.

Rangers manager Skip Schumaker said Thursday that Jung's recovery from a left calf strain has "not trended in the right direction," Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.

The Rangers were hopeful that Jung would be ready for activation from the 10-day injured list when first eligible Saturday, but that's not going to happen. Schumaker noted that Jung's progress, or lack thereof, is "kind of at a standstill right now." With Corey Seager (back) slated to return from the IL on Friday, Ezequiel Duran will shift over from shortstop to handle third base until Jung is ready.

DeLuca went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and a stolen base in Thursday's 3-2 win over the Rangers.

DeLuca tied the game 2-2 in the sixth inning with a 415-foot blast off Peyton Gray, his seventh homer this season. Over his last nine games, DeLuca's gone 11-for-33 (.333) with a pair of home runs and nine RBI. Overall, the outfielder is slashing .262/.297/.441 with 33 RBI, 28 runs scored and 11 stolen bases across 214 plate appearances this season.

Baker earned the save in Thursday's 3-2 win over the Rangers, striking out two while working around a pair of walks in a scoreless ninth inning.

Texas got the tying and go-ahead runs on base after Baker issued a pair of walks, but the right-hander managed to keep them off the board to earn his 30th save of the season, tying Cade Smith for the MLB lead. Baker has been nearly untouchable of late, holding opponents scoreless over his last 11 innings and allowing just one run in his last 23 frames. His ERA is down to 1.49 across 42.1 innings this year with a 0.87 WHIP and 45:15 K:BB.

Seymour (7-3) earned the win Wednesday against the Rangers. He allowed two hits and one walk while striking out four over 4.2 scoreless innings.

The left-hander followed opener Casey Legumina and delivered his first scoreless appearance since June 25. Seymour has a 4-2 record over his past seven outings and has a 3.60 ERA, 0.91 WHIP and 45:9 K:BB across 35 innings during that span. It remains to be seen if Seymour will continue to pitch behind an opener for his next turn through the rotation or if he'll work as a traditional starter. Regardless, he lines up to face the Rockies on the road early next week.
