Wells is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Dodgers.

Wells has gone 2-for-12 with two RBI and six strikeouts through four games in June, and he'll take a seat for Sunday's series finale. Jose Trevino will work behind the plate and bat ninth.

Rizzo is out of the lineup for Sunday's game versus the Dodgers.

Rizzo has gone 1-for-29 over the past seven games and will hit the bench Sunday after starting the previous eight contests. According to Bryan Hoch of MLB.com, manager Aaron Boone said the veteran first baseman may also be held out of the lineup Monday in Kansas City, which would give him a couple days for a mental reset. DJ LeMahieu will shift to first base while Oswaldo Cabrera starts at the hot corner.

Soto (forearm) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Dodgers.

Yankees manager Aaron Boone indicated Saturday that Soto likely wouldn't be back in the lineup for a few days, so it's hardly a surprise he's on the bench again Sunday. Boone also indicated the 25-year-old would "probably" take swings Sunday, which could put the outfielder on track to play sometime during the four-game set in Kansas City that begins Monday.

The Yankees recalled Marinaccio from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Sunday.

The right-hander was optioned to Triple-A in early May despite posting a 1.42 ERA over 12.2 innings for the Yankees, and it was only a matter of time before he returned to the majors. Marinaccio also pitched well for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre with a 1.17 ERA and 17:5 K:BB in 11 outings.

Brown is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Blue Jays, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

Brown is mired in a 1-for-21 slump and will sit Sunday against Toronto righty Bowden Francis. Daz Cameron will receive the start in right field and bat fifth in the series finale.

Gelof is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Blue Jays, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

Gelof has started in all 47 games he's been healthy this season but will step out of the starting nine Sunday after going 0-for-9 with four strikeouts in his past four contests. Aledmys Diaz will handle the keystone and bat eighth in the series finale versus Toronto.

Adell is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Astros, Erica Weston of Bally Sports West reports.

Adell started the previous seven games but will take a seat Sunday after going 1-for-21 with nine strikeouts during that span. Kevin Pillar will man right field and bat fifth in the series finale versus Houston.

Schneider is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics.

Schneider started the previous 14 games but will sit Sunday amid a 3-for-23 slump. Spencer Horwitz will step in at second base and bat leadoff in the series finale at Oakland.

Cannon is listed as the White Sox's probable starting pitcher for Wednesday's game against the Red Sox, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

The 23-year-old was recalled by Chicago and recorded a three-inning save Friday against Boston, and his next appearance will come as a starter. Cannon started in his three previous outings for the White Sox this season but struggled with 11 runs allowed and a 13:4 K:BB over 13.2 innings.

White Sox manager Pedro Grifol said Sunday that Thorpe is expected to be called up from Double-A Birmingham to start Tuesday against the Mariners, LaMond Pope of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Thorpe has been dominant for Double-A Birmingham this season with a 1.35 ERA, 0.85 WHIP and 56:17 K:BB over 60 innings, and he's set to bypass Triple-A Charlotte to make his MLB debut. A second-round pick of the Yankees in 2022 who was traded to the Padres in the Juan Soto deal and then flipped to the White Sox as part of the package for Dylan Cease, the 23-year-old righty has just 34 professional appearances under his belt.
