Urquidy will start Monday's game against the Rangers at Rate Field, James Fegan of The Chicago Sun-Times reports.

After faring well in bulk relief in his first two appearances with Chicago following his promotion from Triple-A Charlotte on Aug. 14, Urquidy will get a look as a traditional starter as he makes his third turn through the rotation. The start will be Urquidy's first in the big leagues since Sept. 29, 2023, when he was a member of the Astros. The 31-year-old righty will tentatively line up for a two-start week, with his next appearance coming during the White Sox's weekend series in Minnesota.

Uribe (forearm) will begin a rehab assignment at High-A Wisconsin on Tuesday.

Uribe has been on the shelf since Aug. 14 due to a right forearm flexor strain, but he shouldn't need more than appearance or two in the minors to prove his health before rejoining the Milwaukee bullpen. Once activated, the right-hander will likely settle back in as one of the top setup arms in front of closer Trevor Megill.

The Yankees plan to call up Topa from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre prior to Tuesday's game against the Astros, Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports.

Topa was signed to a minor-league contract earlier this month and has turned in 1.80 ERA and 2:1 K:BB over five innings during his time with Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. The right-handed reliever logged an 8.05 ERA and 12:11 K:BB across 19 frames earlier this season with the Twins.

Miller conceded after Sunday's loss to the Cubs that he's dealt with a minor right lat injury since his July 24 start against the Rangers, Adam Jude of The Seattle Times reports.

Miller had a start pushed back one day when he first began feeling discomfort in his lat. He's taken the ball on turn since then, but the results have not been there, with the hurler logging a 7.92 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 21:15 K:BB over 30.2 frames covering his last six outings. A move to the bullpen for Miller is possible, but the health of Bryan Woo (shoulder) complicates the decision. For now, Miller is tentatively lined up to start Sunday's game in Toronto.

Eldridge is expected to miss the Giants' three-game series against the Reds to begin the week while he heads to Virginia to attend his grandfather's funeral, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

The Giants plan to place Eldridge on the bereavement list prior to Monday's game. Eldridge has been making most of his starts at first base lately, but his upcoming absence for the next three games will clear the way for Rafael Devers to pick up more reps in the infield. San Francisco will likely use a rotation of players in the designated-hitter spot until Eldridge rejoins the club Thursday.

Estevez (shoulder) threw in a bridge league game at the Royals' complex in Arizona on Saturday, Joel Penfield of KCSN.com reports.

Estevez retired four of the five hitters he faced while showing increased velocity, per Penfield. The veteran right-hander is expected to pitch again in Arizona before embarking on a rehab assignment as he works his way back from a right rotator cuff strain. Estevez has been shelved for virtually all of 2026, hitting the injured list April 1 due to a left foot contusion before suffering the shoulder injury during a rehab appearance May 6.

Gonsolin (elbow) is on track to start a rehab assignment with Triple-A Omaha this week, per MLB.com.

Gonsolin signed with the Royals on Aug. 13 and is nearing the final stage of his recovery from Tommy John surgery with an internal brace, which he underwent on his right elbow in August 2025. The right-hander's first outing is expected to last approximately three innings or 50 pitches. It remains to be seen how many rehab starts Kansas City plans to give him, but Gonsolin figures to receive some starting opportunities with the big-league club down the stretch in September.

Bolte went 3-for-5 with a double and a run scored in Sunday's 7-6 win over the Astros.

Bolte didn't drive in a run, but the center fielder still made an impact offensively with his eighth three-hit effort of the season. The rookie has put together a nice month of August, slashing .325/.385/.482 with three homers, eight RBI, 14 runs and two stolen bases across 21 contests. Overall, Bolte is hitting .270/.345/.369 with six homers, 26 RBI, 34 runs and 14 stolen bases in 88 games.

Isbel went 2-for-4 with three RBI, two runs scored and a steal in Sunday's 11-7 win over the Tigers.

Isbel got in on the offensive slugfest, recording a season-high three RBI with a pair of singles. It was a productive homestand for the center fielder, as he went 7-for-21 (.333) with two homers, eight RBI, six runs and a stolen base across six games. Overall, Isbel is hitting .241/.288/.370 with six homers, 23 RBI, 25 runs and six stolen bases in 73 contests.

Rave went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run, two additional runs scored, two steals and a walk in Sunday's 11-7 win over the Tigers.

Rave was a notable contributor in the win, blasting a two-run homer in the fifth inning and swiping two bags for the first time in his career. On the year, the 28-year-old is hitting .215/.282/.462 with three homers, seven RBI, 13 runs and four stolen bases across 73 big-league plate appearances. Should Jac Caglianone (ankle) remain sidelined and require a stint on the injured list, Rave figures to see an uptick in playing time in right field.
