Kwan went 1-for-4 with a double in Sunday's 1-0 loss to Tampa Bay.

Kwan led off the game with a double but was stranded at second base. That was the first indication that the Guardians' offense would be insufficient against Rays pitching, which allowed just two walks and no more hits after Kwan's leadoff double. The hit extended an on-base streak to 14 games for Kwan, who has gone 20-for-47 (.426) with eight walks, three steals, four doubles, four RBI and seven runs scored during the run.

Halpin went 0-for-1, was hit by a pitch, and stole a base in Sunday's 1-0 loss to the Rays.

Halpin was one of three Guardians to reach scoring position, when he was hit by a pitch and stole second base in third inning. The steal was his sixth in six attempts and fourth in 12 games since being recalled July 9. Halpin has been a steady presence in the starting nine, even with the return of Angel Martinez from injury.

The White Sox optioned Perez to Triple-A Charlotte on Monday.

Perez socked a pinch-hit home run Sunday against the Astros, but the rookie outfielder has not started a game since the All-Star break. He'll play more regularly at Charlotte. Perez's demotion could signify Everson Pereira's (concussion) impending activation.

Trammell went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's 12-3 loss to the White Sox.

Making his first start in four games, Trammell tied things up at 3-3 with a 426-foot blast of Erick Fedde in the fourth inning, his fourth homer of the season. Lucas Spence had seen the majority of time in center field after Brice Matthews (knee) landed on the IL last week, though Trammell could be in line for more playing time as the rookie Spence has gone just 2-for-21 in his last six games. Overall, Trammell is slashing .238/.299/.389 with 13 RBI, 16 runs scored and three stolen bases across 138 plate appearances this season.

Thomas went 1-for-4 with a solo home run and a walk in Sunday's 5-4 win over the Tigers.

Thomas opened Sunday's contest with a leadoff homer to right field off Framber Valdez. The outfielder has belted three homers in 10 games since the All-Star break, though he's gone just 8-for-39 (.205) during that stretch. Overall, Thomas is hitting .230/.327/.400 with 10 homers, 37 RBI, 30 runs and six stolen bases across 92 contests in 2026.

Adell went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Sunday's win over the Giants.

Adell walloped a Carson Whisenhunt changeup 446 feet to left-center field for a two-run homer in the fourth inning. The outfielder has reached base safely in six straight contests while clubbing three long balls during that stretch. On the year, Adell is hitting .243/.290/.403 with 16 homers, 59 RBI, 46 runs and three stolen bases across 105 games.

Trout went 4-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Sunday's win over the Giants.

Trout didn't drive in any runs, but he reached base in all four plate appearances during Sunday's win. It marked the three-time American League MVP's first four-hit effort since April 2021. Since returning from a right hamstring strain July 8, the 34-year-old has slashed .319/.421/.447 with a homer, three doubles, four RBI, six runs and a stolen base in 13 games.

Arozarena went 3-for-5 with a solo home run in Sunday's 6-4 win over the Rangers.

After Dominic Canzone crushed a three-run homer to give the Mariners the lead in the seventh inning, Arozarena followed with a solo blast to push the club's advantage to 5-3. Sunday marked the left fielder's eighth game with three-plus hits this season. He's been a steady offensive presence all year, slashing .284/.379/.448 with 12 homers, 46 RBI, 65 runs and 19 stolen bases across 98 contests.

Perez went 1-for-1 with a two-run home run in Sunday's 12-3 win over the Astros.

Perez hasn't been in the lineup since before the All-Star break, though he made an impact with his bat while coming off the bench Sunday. He took Miguel Ullola deep to left field in the eighth inning for his third career home run across 36 plate appearances. Despite flashing power in his limited sample in the majors, Perez has recorded just six hits and is striking out at a 38.9 percent clip.

Bellinger said he will return to New York on Monday to undergo additional testing on his strained left hamstring, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

Bellinger was placed on the 10-day injured list Sunday, but the Yankees are still looking to determine the severity of his hamstring injury. Even if his upcoming tests reveal a minor strain, Bellinger could be hard pressed to make it back from the shelf when first eligible Aug. 4. The Yankees recalled Spencer Jones from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre in a corresponding move, and the rookie could end up occupying the strong side of a platoon in the outfield while Bellinger is on the IL.
