Torres went 3-for-5 with a double and three runs scored in Wednesday's 7-2 win over the Rays.

The second baseman has hit the ground running this week since returning from an oblique strain. In two games since coming off the IL, Torres has gone 4-for-9 with a double, a solo homer and four runs while hitting leadoff in both contests. He boasts a .764 OPS through 34 games this season, including what would be a career-high .396 OBP.

Dingler went 2-for-4 with a home run and four RBI in Wednesday's 7-2 win over the Rays.

Getting a partial day off as the DH, Dingler supplied the biggest hit of the game when he took Nick Martinez deep for a three-run blast in the fourth inning. Dingler has been a linchpin of the Detroit offense over the last couple weeks, batting .267 (12-for-45) in his last 12 contests with nine extra-base hits (six homers), 10 runs and 15 RBI. Wednesday's long ball was also his 14th of the year, establishing a career high through just 55 games.

Judge (ribs/shoulder) is out of the lineup Wednesday against Cleveland for a second consecutive night.

Judge will sit against the Guardians once again after being diagnosed with a bone bruise in his ribs, which is causing soreness in his right shoulder. Jose Caballero will start in right field for the second straight night and bat sixth.

Melton (2-0) picked up the win Wednesday, allowing two runs on four hits and two walks over eight innings during a 7-2 victory over the Rays. He struck out five.

The right-hander tossed an efficient 94 pitches (67 strikes) in the longest outing of his career. Melton has been outstanding since coming off the IL and has bolstered an injury-wracked Tigers rotation, posting a 1.74 ERA, 0.87 WHIP and 9:6 K:BB through 20.2 innings over three starts. He'll look to keep rolling in his next outing, which lines up to come at home next week against the Twins.

Raleigh (oblique) will begin a rehab assignment with High-A Everett on Sunday, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports.

Raleigh will move up to Triple-A Tacoma on Tuesday and will continue his rehab assignment there for the rest of next week before the Mariners evaluate him for a return to the active roster. That sets Raleigh up to return to the Seattle lineup June 16 for the beginning of a homestand, assuming all goes well. He's been out since mid-May due to a right oblique strain.

Garcia (hamstring) remains out of the lineup for Wednesday's game in Cincinnati.

This marks Garcia's fourth consecutive absence from the starting lineup as he continues to deal with a right hamstring issue. The Royals have held off on putting Garcia on the 10-day injured list, but a move will have to be made soon if he's not game-ready in a hurry. Nick Loftin is filling in again at third base Wednesday in Garcia's stead.

Holderman (4-1) got the win after allowing a hit and no walks in a scoreless inning while striking out two in a 9-4 win over the Yankees on Tuesday.

Holderman entered in the bottom of the fifth, striking out both Amed Rosario and Jazz Chisholm, and kept Cleveland's 5-4 lead intact. Coming off one of his worst appearances of the season Sunday -- when he allowed two earned runs to Boston in just one-third of an inning -- Holderman bounced back in a big way Tuesday. The 30-year-old has a 2.05 ERA, 0.82 WHIP and 25:6 K:BB through 22 innings in his first season with Cleveland.

Triple-A Durham activated Cook (intercostal) from the 7-day injured list May 23.

Cook, after missing a little over two weeks of action due to an intercostal strain, has turned in back-to-back scoreless outings since returning to the mound. The 25-year-old right-hander has made 13 appearances (three starts) at the Triple-A level in 2026, posting a 5.02 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 16:7 K:BB covering 14.1 innings.

Triple-A Norfolk activated Vazquez (thumb) from the 7-day injured list Tuesday.

Vazquez missed about two months of action due to a broken right thumb, but he's since rejoined Norfolk following a rehab assignment with High-A Frederick. After going 6-for-23 (.261) with four doubles, four RBI and two stolen bases during his assignment, Vazquez launched a solo home run in his return to the Tides on Tuesday.

Raleigh (oblique) could be ready for a rehab assignment during the Mariners' June 5-14 road trip, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports.

Raleigh has been ramping up all of his baseball activities in recent days as he works his way back from a right oblique strain. He will remain in Seattle for the time being to continue workouts as the team departs for its road trip, but it sounds like Raleigh could be ready for rehab games next week. Raleigh has missed the past three weeks of action but should be ready to return to the Mariners' active roster by mid-June, barring setbacks.
