  • Angels activate Brandon Drury from injured list
    Angels activated INF Brandon Drury from the 10-day injured list.

    Advice: Cole Tucker was dropped to make room. Drury missed 5 1/2 weeks with a strained left hamstring. He was hitting only .173/.230/.240 in 113 plate appearances before going down, and Angels manager Ron Washington said over the weekend that he’d be benched if he didn’t produce pretty quickly after coming off the IL. Expect him to get regular playing time for now between second base and DH. Rotoworld Yesterday, 2:52 pm
  • Returns from injured list
    The Angels activated Drury (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list Monday.

    Advice: Drury wound up being sidelined for nearly six weeks of action with a left hamstring strain but is ready to roll after playing six rehab games. Most of Drury's starts with the Angels will probably come at second base, but first base, third base and designated hitter are options, as well. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:47 pm
  • Getting day off versus lefty
    Valdez is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Blue Jays.

    Advice: The lefty-hitting Valdez will get the night off while the Blue Jays bring southpaw Yusei Kikuchi to the bump. The freshly activated Romy Gonzalez (hamstring) will get the start at second base in place of Valdez. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:42 pm
  • Sitting out Monday
    McMahon is out of the lineup for Monday's contest against the Dodgers.

    Advice: The lefty-hitting McMahon is getting just his third day off of the season with a left-hander (James Paxton) on the mound for the Dodgers. Alan Trejo will step in at third base in place of McMahon, who has started to heat back up over the past week with seven hits -- including two home runs -- in his last 20 at-bats.

  • Activated, included in lineup
    The Red Sox activated Gonzalez (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list Monday.

    Advice: Gonzalez has missed most of June with a hamstring issue but was cleared to rejoin the Red Sox following a brief rehab assignment. He'll check back into the starting nine at second base and as the No. 6 hitter in Monday's series opener as the Blue Jays send lefty Yusei Kikuchi to the mound. Gonzalez is expected to fill the short side of a platoon at the keystone with Enmanuel Valdez. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:35 pm
  • Red Sox activate Romy Gonzalez from 10-day IL
    Red Sox activated INF/OF Romy Gonzalez from the 10-day injured list.

    Advice: Gonzalez missed two weeks with a hamstring strain. He’ll mostly play second base against lefties for now. Once Vaughn Grissom returns, the Red Sox figure to demote either Gonzalez or Enmanuel Valdez. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:32 pm
  • Absent from lineup
    McKinstry is out of the lineup for Monday's game in Atlanta.

    Advice: He and Ryan Kreidler have split the starts at shortstop down the middle, with both getting four apiece since Javier Baez (back) went on the injured list. McKinstry has now been on the bench for all three contests versus lefties, as Atlanta is starting southpaw Max Fried on Monday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:09 pm

  • Called up from Triple-A
    The Dodgers recalled Vargas from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Monday.

    Advice: Shortstop Mookie Betts (hand) was placed on the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move, but Vargas isn't expected to get the first chance to replace the seven-time All-Star in the Dodgers' everyday lineup. Instead, manager Dave Roberts suggested after Sunday's 3-0 win over the Royals that Miguel Rojas would likely step in as the Dodgers' primary shortstop, so Vargas could be limited to the short-side platoon role in the corner outfield that he previously held during his three-plus-week stay with the big club earlier in the season. Vargas saw extended time at second base with the Dodgers and Oklahoma City in 2023, but he's played exclusively in left field and at designated hitter in 2024. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:06 pm
  • Takes seat Monday
    Perez is out of the lineup for Monday's contest in Atlanta.

    Advice: After starting each of the previous seven games, Perez will take a seat Monday as Atlanta goes with southpaw Max Fried on the mound. Matt Vierling will replace Perez in right field. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:06 pm
