  • Blue Jays' Ricky Tiedemann: Scratched with neck issue

    Tiedemann (elbow) did not make a scheduled rehab start with Single-A Dunedin on Tuesday due to neck soreness, Thomas Hall of MLB.com reports.

    Tiedemann had been set for his first start with Dunedin after making a pair of one-inning starts in the rookie-level Florida Complex League. The Blue Jays have not yet decided when Tiedemann will next take the ball, but the neck issue shouldn't be too significant of a setback. Tiedemann missed all of 2025 after Tommy John surgery and was shut down this spring due to renewed elbow soreness. He will eventually be assigned to Triple-A Buffalo once he's done with his rehab assignment.

    Athletics' Jacob Wilson: Out of Athletics' lineup

    Wilson (shoulder) is not in the lineup for Thursday's game in San Francisco.

    Wilson was forced to exit Wednesday's contest when he injured his left shoulder on a play at home plate. It's the same shoulder he dislocated earlier this season, costing him a month of action at the time. It's not yet clear whether the apparent aggravation of that injury will lead to another extended absence for Wilson, but the fact he wasn't placed on the injured list prior to Thursday's contest is seemingly a good sign. Alika Williams is filling in at shortstop in the series finale.

    Athletics' Zack Gelof: Lands on 10-day injured list

    The Athletics placed Gelof on the 10-day injured list Thursday with a right hand contusion.

    Gelof suffered a laceration and contusion when he got his hand stepped on in Tuesday's contest in San Francisco. The injury had seemed relatively minor initially, but Gelof ultimately was unable to avoid the IL. Max Muncy has seen a dip in playing time lately, but he should be back in the lineup on a regular basis while Gelof is sidelined.

  • Alika Williams SS | ATH

    Athletics' Alika Williams: Up from Triple-A

    The Athletics recalled Williams from Triple-A Las Vegas on Thursday.

    The 27-year-old will return to the active roster as the replacement for Zack Gelof (hand), who landed on the injured list Thursday. Williams has been fairly productive during his time in the big leagues, slashing .289/.319/.467 with a homer, five RBI and six runs scored across 48 plate appearances with the A's. However, he'll likely be limited to a bench role while Max Muncy sees the largest increase in playing time with Gelof on the shelf.

  • Yankees' Jasson Dominguez: Homers off Skubal on Wednesday

    Dominguez went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's 4-2 victory versus the Tigers.

    With Tigers ace lefty Tarik Skubal on the mound, Yankees manager Aaron Boone slid Dominguez into the No. 3 slot in the batting order. That move paid off when Dominguez broke a 2-2 tie with a two-run blast in the sixth inning. Dominguez struck out in each of his other three plate appearances, but his homer was ultimately the difference, as neither team scored for the remainder of the game. Since returning from the minors June 13, Dominguez has slashed .250/.268/.500 with two long balls, four doubles, four runs, three RBI, four stolen bases and a 1:12 BB:K.

  • Cooper Ingle LF | CLE

    Guardians' Cooper Ingle: Getting outfield reps

    Ingle has recently begun playing left field for Triple-A Columbus to potentially carve out another path to the majors, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.

    The 24-year-old has been focusing on improving his defensive abilities behind the plate at Triple-A, but recent injuries to Jose Ramirez (hand), Chase DeLauter (ribs) and Angel Martinez (foot) have resulted in some major lineup holes for Cleveland. Ingle has now made seven starts in left field at Columbus and should continue to see time there as the Guardians weigh their options. Ingle has certainly been able to handle Triple-A pitching by posting a .284/.416/.551 slash line and 12 homers through 51 games this season, so a promotion could come soon if he proves to be a serviceable option in left field.

  • Mitch Farris RP | LAA

    Angels' Mitch Farris: Logs two scoreless frames Wednesday

    Farris allowed one hit, issued one walk and struck out one batter over two scoreless relief innings against the Orioles on Wednesday.

    Angels starter Jose Soriano struggled and was able to give the team only three innings before Farris was brought in to begin the fourth. The lefty reliever got into a bit of trouble by allowing a one-out double and then hitting Gunnar Henderson with a pitch, but Farris was able to get out of the frame unscathed thanks to a double play. He returned for the fifth and induced another double play en route to a second scoreless inning. Farris has covered two or more frames in nine of his 14 appearances this season and has posted a 3.45 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 31:16 K:BB with one hold across 31.1 innings.

  • Jorge Soler DH | LAA

    Angels' Jorge Soler: Goes deep again Wednesday

    Soler went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and two walks in a 7-6, 10-inning victory against Baltimore on Wednesday.

    Soler got the Angels off to a fast start with a two-run blast to left field in the first inning. Though he didn't log another hit in the game, the veteran outfielder reached twice more via walks. Soler returned Monday from a stint on the injured list, and he's gone 2-for-9 with a pair of homers, four RBI and a 3:5 BB:K across three games since his return. Overall, Soler is slashing .220/.305/.422 with 11 long balls, 37 RBI, 30 runs and no stolen bases through 61 contests on the campaign.

  • Ian Seymour RP | TB

    Rays' Ian Seymour: Set to pitch behind opener

    Seymour is expected to pitch in bulk relief behind opener Casey Legumina in Thursday's game against the Royals, Ryan Bass of Rays.tv reports.

    Seymour made a five-inning start against the Nationals his last time out Saturday, but he'll be deployed out of the bullpen for his upcoming turn through the rotation. Since settling in as the Rays' de facto No. 5 starter June 8, Seymour has gone 0-1 with a 4.38 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 12:4 K:BB in 12.1 innings over three appearances.

  • Bobby Witt SS | KC

    Royals' Bobby Witt: Tracking toward return Friday

    Royals manager Matt Quatraro indicated Thursday that Witt (knee) is on track to return to the lineup Friday versus the White Sox, Joel Goldberg of Bally Sports Kansas City reports.

    Witt is missing a sixth straight start Thursday against the Rays as he overcomes a Grade 1 MCL sprain of his right knee. However, he went through a full pregame workout Wednesday and bounced back well Thursday. Witt should be available off the bench Thursday before returning to the lineup Friday, barring a setback.
