  • Michael Helman CF | TEX

    Rangers' Michael Helman: Officially recalled

    The Rangers recalled Helman from Triple-A Round Rock on Friday.

    Helman will replace Evan Carter (wrist) on the 26-man roster. Helman's ability to play infield and outfield will provide Texas with some additional versatility going forward. His clearest path to playing time comes in center field.

    Rangers' Evan Carter: Moved to IL

    The Rangers placed Carter (wrist) on the 10-day injured list Friday.

    Texas makes Carter's move official after manager Bruce Bochy revealed Friday morning that Carter could be out for the season with a fractured right wrist. The 22-year-old's spot on the active roster will go to Michael Helman. Wyatt Langford should see more action in center field while Carter is out, while Alejandro Osuna could see a bump in playing time in left.

  • Mariners' Dominic Canzone: Sitting Friday

    Canzone (arm) is not in the Mariners' starting lineup against the Athletics on Friday.

    Canzone has been out of the lineup since being removed from Monday's game against the Phillies after being struck by a pitch on his left arm. X-rays did not reveal any structural damage, but he'll be on the bench for Friday's series opener while Luke Raley starts in right field and bats seventh.

    Rangers' Michael Helman: Call-up pending

    Helman is expected to be called up from Triple-A Round Rock, Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com reports Friday.

    Helman is slated to take Evan Carter's (wrist) spot on the active roster once Carter is placed on the injured list. Helman has been with Round Rock since July 27, and he's slashed .182/.308/.455 in 14 plate appearances with the Rangers this season. The 29-year-old has tallied a .744 OPS with Round Rock in 2025.

  • Brooks Baldwin SS | CHW

    White Sox's Brooks Baldwin: Getting breather Friday

    Baldwin is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Twins.

    Baldwin's streak of five consecutive starts comes to an end Friday, as the utility player gets the night off. He notched a hit in all five of those outings, going 7-for-13 (.538) with a 3:3 BB:K during that stretch.

  • Red Sox's Jhostynxon Garcia: Batting fifth in MLB debut

    Garcia is starting in center field and batting fifth Friday against the Yankees, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.

    The 22-year-old is receiving his first look in the majors and will make his debut in center field Friday versus New York lefty Max Fried. Garcia is one of Boston's top prospects and has a .303/.367/.564 slash line with 17 homers and two steals in 66 games at Triple-A Worcester this year.

  • Royals' Jac Caglianone: Hitting well on rehab assignment

    Caglianone (hamstring) has gone 14-for-34 with three home runs and a 5:2 K:BB over his first eight rehab contests with Triple-A Omaha.

    He's made six starts in right field, as well as one apiece at first base and designated hitter. Caglianone appears ready for activation from the 10-day injured list, but the Royals haven't indicated when exactly that transaction will take place. The rookie has been shelved since late July with a strained left hamstring.

    Rangers' Evan Carter: Injury could be season-ending

    Manager Bruce Bochy said Friday that further evaluation revealed Carter (wrist) sustained a fracture when he was hit by a pitch Thursday, and he could be out for the remainder of the season, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    While Bochy didn't offer any more specifics, Carter appears to be headed toward a lengthy stint on the injured list and could be out for the remainder of the 2025 campaign. The center fielder had started seven of Texas's last eight games, and a prolonged absence will mean Wyatt Langford slides back over to center, and more playing time in left field for Alejandro Osuna.

  • Athletics' Tyler Soderstrom: Perfect at plate Thursday

    Soderstrom went 4-for-4 with a double, a walk and a run scored in Thursday's 8-3 win over the Twins.

    Soderstrom reached base in all five of his plate appearances Thursday, though he didn't record an RBI. The 23-year-old has delivered exactly the kind of third-year breakout the Athletics were hoping for, slashing .273/.347/.483 with an .830 OPS, 25 doubles, 23 homers and 74 RBI across 128 games.
