The Tigers selected Malgeri's contract from Triple-A Toledo on Tuesday.

The 26-year-old has received his first promotion to the majors after posting a .296/.401/.496 slash line through 65 games with Toledo this season. Malgeri should serve as a reserve outfielder for Detroit and could see some starts against left-handed pitching.

Triple-A Tacoma placed Davis on its 7-day injured list June 2 due to a left hamstring strain, Adam Jude of The Seattle Times reports.

Injuries have been a constant stumbling block for Davis throughout his minor-league career, but the 26-year-old outfielder was able to earn a spot on Seattle's 40-man roster on May 18 after a hot start to the season at Tacoma. Davis went down with the hamstring strain just over two weeks later, but assuming the injury doesn't prove to be a long-term setback, he'll have a shot at making his big-league debut later on this season. He's thus far put together a .265/.376/.512 slash line with nine home runs and one stolen base over 205 plate appearances while striking out at a manageable 22.4 percent clip.

Nimmo went 3-for-3 with a double, a stolen base and two runs scored in Monday's 4-3 win over the Marlins.

The Rangers had a pair of two-run innings with Nimmo involved in both. He singled in the fourth and scored on Ezequiel Duran's home run, and then doubled and scored the go-ahead run in the eighth. This was Nimmo's eighth multi-hit game over the last 13 contests, during which the outfielder is slashing .358/.370/.509.

Antonacci went 2-for-4 with three RBI, a run scored and two steals in Monday's 6-5 win over Cleveland.

With his team down to its final out, two runners in scoring position and trailing by a run, Antonacci lined an elevated fastball into center field to drive in both runners and emerge as the walk-off hero. The game-winning knock capped off a productive night in which he also recorded an RBI single and stole two bases in the seventh inning. The left fielder has put together a fantastic June, slashing .328/.438/.557 with three homers, five doubles, nine RBI, 14 runs and three stolen bases across 17 appearances this month. The rookie hasn't looked overmatched since debuting in mid-April, hitting .291/.391/.422 with 16 extra-base hits (four homers), 22 RBI, 37 runs and 11 stolen bases across 59 games.

Ward went 2-for-5 with a solo home run and a second run scored in Monday's 6-1 win over the Angels.

This was Ward's first game back in Anaheim after he was traded to Baltimore last November. He's posted consecutive multi-hit efforts, each including a long ball, after going 12 contests without homering. The outfielder is batting .284 (23-for-81) in June and is up to .258 on the year with a .759 OPS, five homers, 22 RBI, 51 runs scored, 17 doubles and two stolen bases over 79 contests as the Orioles' primary leadoff hitter.

The Orioles designated Siani for assignment on Monday.

Siani's stint with the Orioles was very brief after serving just two days with the big-league club. The 26-year-old was called to pinch-hit during Sunday's game against the Dodgers, registering one at-bat with Baltimore. Siani was DFA'd in order to make room for Chadwick Tromp on the roster.

Greene went 1-for-2 with two walks, a solo home run and an additional run scored in Monday's 5-3 win over the Yankees.

After snapping a brief 0-for-11 slump with two hits and a walk Sunday, Greene reached base three more times Monday and also recorded his ninth home run of the season. While his power production is down from last year's pace, when he blasted a career-best 36 homers in 157 regular-season contests, Greene is now sporting an .830 OPS this year, which would be a new career high.

Guardians manager Stephen Vogt said Monday that the team hopes DeLauter (rib) will be ready to return during its June 26-July 5 homestand, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.

Working his way back from a small fracture in his right rib cage, DeLauter has resumed hitting, running and throwing. Vogt does not have a specific target date for DeLauter's activation from the 10-day injured list, but it seems it could happen as soon as this weekend.

Kwan is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the White Sox.

Southpaw Anthony Kay is on the bump for the White Sox, so Kwan will retreat to the bench along with fellow left-handed batters Daniel Schneemann and Kahlil Watson. Kwan is batting a career-worst .206 on the season and has been especially brutal against left-handed pitching, slashing .171/.289/.211 over 90 plate appearances.

Watson is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the White Sox.

Southpaw Anthony Kay is on the bump for the White Sox, so Watson will retreat to the bench along with fellow left-handed batters Daniel Schneemann and Steven Kwan. Since being called up from Triple-A Columbus last Wednesday, Watson has gone 0-for-12 with eight strikeouts while drawing starts in four of six games.
