Langford went 3-for-5 with an RBI in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Red Sox.

Langford recorded multiple hits for the second straight game, going 5-for-9 with a double and two RBI in the first two games of the series in Boston. It appears the outfielder needed some time to regain his form following a six-week layoff due to a forearm strain. Langford went 3-for-23 (.130) over his first six games off the IL prior to his two-game rebound this weekend.

Fairchild started in center field and went 2-for-2 with a stolen base in Saturday's 3-1 win over Detroit. He was also hit by a pitch.

Fairchild had to move mid-game, from center to right field, when Chase DeLauter (ribs) was removed. Later, Angel Martinez (foot) made an early exit. Fairchild's been used sparingly since his contract was selected from Triple-A Columbus at the end of May, but if DeLauter and/or Martinez need extended absences, Fairchild would see an uptick in playing time.

Schneemann is the most likely candidate to fill in at third base after Jose Ramirez suffered a fractured left hamate bone Saturday, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.

The utility player had already entered Saturday's game for injured outfielder Chase DeLauter (ribs) but moved to the hot corner after Ramirez exited. Schneemann's the most likely candidate to cover for Ramirez, having made 43 career starts and 63 appearances at third base. David Fry is another option, but he's handled only 18 career innings at the hot corner. If Guardians manager Stephen Vogt wants to leave Schneemann in a more versatile role -- which the manager values -- the team could bring Gabriel Arias (hamstring) off the 60-day IL to mix in at third base as well.

Schneemann went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Saturday's win over the Tigers.

Schneemann entered the game in the bottom of the first inning as a pinch runner for the injured Chase DeLauter (ribs), and he'd end up playing a key role offensively by taking a returning Tarik Skubal deep in the bottom of the third inning. This was Schneemann's fifth long ball of the season, and his first since April 27.

Buxton went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 9-6 loss to the Cardinals.

The center fielder took Matthew Liberatore deep in the fourth inning to get the Twins on the board. Buxton's been locked in since a collision with the outfield wall cost him two games last weekend -- since returning to the lineup, he's homered four times in five games while batting .421 (8-for-19). On the season, Buxton is slashing .269/.331/.596 with 22 home runs, six steals, 34 RBI and 47 runs in 60 contests.

Trout went 1-for-5 with a stolen base in Saturday's 8-0 win over the Rays.

Trout has logged a steal in two of his last three games. The veteran outfielder has already recorded seven thefts this year, his most in any campaign since he swiped 11 bags in 2019. For the season, he's batting .225 with an .837 OPS, 15 home runs, 32 RBI, 51 runs scored and 10 doubles over 70 contests.

Adell went 4-for-5 with a double and three runs scored in Saturday's 8-0 win over the Rays.

This was Adell's second four-hit effort in June. The outfielder has gone 14-for-45 (.311) this month, though just three of those knocks have gone for extra bases. That's still a lot better than his .249 batting average on the year. For the season, Adell has added a .685 OPS, 10 home runs, 10 doubles, three stolen bases, 39 RBI and 33 runs scored over 71 contests. He continues to play consistently with the ability to chip in a little bit across the board, though he's well behind the power pace that saw him hit 37 homers last year.

Siri went 1-for-2 with a two-run home run and a walk in Saturday's 8-0 win over the Rays.

Siri didn't get the start Saturday, but he made an impact off the bench. The outfielder has gone 9-for-27 (.333) with two homers and 10 RBI over nine contests in June, though he has been limited to a part-time role. For the season, he's batting .333 with a .988 OPS, three homers, 12 RBI, 12 runs scored, three doubles and no stolen bases over 51 plate appearances. Siri should be in the lineup versus most left-handed pitchers, and he serves as a fourth outfielder versus right-handers, though he could carve out a larger role if he maintains the hot bat.

Beavers (oblique) is expected to progress to live batting practice as early as Monday, MLB.com reports.

If all goes well against live pitching, Beavers could then start a minor-league rehab assignment shortly thereafter. The 24-year-old outfielder has been on the injured list since May 13 due to a right oblique strain, but he's tracking toward rejoining the Orioles perhaps in late June or early July.

Peters went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in a loss to the Dodgers on Saturday.

Los Angeles ace Yoshinobu Yamamoto entered the bottom of the ninth inning working on a no-hitter, but Peters ended the hurler's chance at history by clubbing a leadoff homer to right field. That was Peters' first long ball in 22 contests, though he's batting a robust .369 with 11 doubles during that span. The hot spell has brought Peters' season slash line up to a very strong .299/.358/.460 and has helped cement his role as Chicago's near-everyday center fielder.
