Skubal (11-3) earned the win against the Guardians on Monday, allowing one run on 10 hits and one walk with six strikeouts over seven innings.

Skubal yielded a run on a bases-loaded bunt in the second inning before tossing five straight scoreless frames. Despite allowing a season-high 10 hits, he generated 15 swinging strikes and logged his fifth consecutive quality start. The southpaw now leads the AL with a 2.34 ERA to go along with a 0.92 WHIP and 146:22 K:BB across 123 innings. He projects for a home matchup with the Twins this weekend.

Trout (knee) will report to Triple-A Salt Lake on Monday to continue his rehab assignment, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

The club plans for Trout to play at least two games at Triple-A before making a decision on his possible activation. His last big-league action dates back to April 29 against the Phillies, so it wouldn't be a surprise to see the team extend his rehab assignment a few more days to be certain he's healthy before he rejoins the 26-man roster.

Rengifo (wrist) said Monday that he is taking part in full baseball activities and could be activated as soon as Tuesday, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

Rengifo resumed baseball activities Friday after being placed on the 10-day injured list July 5 with right wrist inflammation, and he now appears to be on the cusp of returning to the lineup. The Angels will launch a three-game series in Seattle on Monday night and it's possible he is activated from the IL prior to the end of the series.

Canning (elbow) is expected to draw the start Wednesday on the road against the Mariners, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

Canning appears to be alright after reporting that he was dealing with irritation in his right elbow in Friday's loss to the Athletics. The 28-year-old has failed to reach five innings on the mound in any of his last three starts, giving up 12 runs over 12 frames in those outings. He'll look to get back on track against Seattle, who he threw 6.1 innings of one-run ball against June 2.

Leone (elbow) is expected to begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A Charlotte within the next day or two, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

White Sox manager Pedro Grifol confirmed Monday that the right-hander would report to Triple-A for his first action since being placed on the injured list May 24 with right elbow inflammation. Leone will need at least a few innings of work in the minors before being activated.

White Sox manager Pedro Grifol said Monday that Foster (elbow/back) is expected to resume his rehab assignment with Triple-A Charlotte in the next day or two, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Foster has missed the entirety of the 2024 season so far while recovering from Tommy John surgery, which he underwent April 19, 2023. He suffered a strained back earlier in July while on his rehab assignment with Charlotte, prompting a shutdown. Once healthy, Foster will likely be used in low-leverage spots out of the White Sox bullpen.

Lambert (shoulder) will make his next rehab appearance in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League on Tuesday, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Lambert began his rehab assignment Friday, when he struck out two while allowing one hit and no walks over a scoreless innings. He'll likely need at least a few more appearances in the ACL before moving his rehab assignment to a higher-level affiliate. Lambert has been on the shelf all season while recovering from a right rotator cuff strain.

Correa (heel) was wearing a walking boot in the clubhouse before Monday's game against the Phillies, Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com reports.

Correa was placed on the 10-day injured list Saturday due to right plantar fasciitis, and he noted that he'll be in the walking boot for at least a few more days. The shortstop also said he wasn't sure he'll begin baseball activities immediately after shedding the boot, but he's hoping he won't miss more than another week or two. An updated timeline for Correa's return could be provided by the Twins later in the week.

The White Sox halted Moncada's (adductor) minor-league rehab assignment Monday due to what manager Pedro Grifol referred to as "anticipated soreness," LaMond Pope of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Grifol suggested that Moncada isn't dealing with a setback in his recovery from a left adductor strain, but the infielder's rehab program has been paused for the time being while he's not feeling fully comfortable. On the shelf since early April with the injury, Moncada started up his rehab assignment July 9 in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League, going 8-for-15 with one double in five contests. Moncada will be re-evaluated before the White Sox determine when he might be ready for game action in the minors.

Red Sox manager Alex Cora said Monday that Casas (ribs) could be close to turning a corner in his recovery, Ian Browne of MLB.comreports.

Cora was relaying what he was told by a trainer and didn't divulge further details, but it's an encouraging update after the skipper indicated over the weekend that Casas was not close to beginning a rehab assignment. A return timeline still appears very much up in the air for the first baseman, who has been sidelined since late April with a strain and torn cartilage in his left rib cage.
