    Mariners' Lazaro Montes: Homers in big-league debut

    Montes went 2-for-4 with an RBI single, a solo home run and an additional run scored during Tuesday's 9-6 win over Boston.

    Montes was promoted from Triple-A Tacoma ahead of his major-league debut Tuesday, serving as the designated hitter. His RBI single in the third inning was his first big-league hit before he belted a 407-foot solo homer to center field in the fifth to give the Mariners a commanding 9-1 lead. Although he was the DH on Tuesday, Montes should see plenty of reps in right field given Taylor Ward's recent struggles at the plate.

  • Angel Martinez LF | CLE

    Guardians' Angel Martinez: Cracks two-run homer vs. Toronto

    Martinez went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run and two additional runs scored during the Guardians' 6-1 win over the Blue Jays on Tuesday.

    The Guardians smacked three two-run homers during Tuesday's win, with Martinez being responsible for the third one that took place in the eighth inning. Martinez has gone deep in back-to-back games and is up to 14 homers on the year. He has four multi-hit games over his last nine outings, going 11-for-31 (.355) with two homers, six RBI and six runs scored in that span.

  • Luis Robert CF | BAL

    Orioles' Luis Robert: Idle Tuesday

    Robert isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against Colorado.

    Robert will have to wait a bit longer before making his Orioles debut after being claimed off waivers from the Mets on Monday. Dylan Beavers, Colton Cowser and Leody Taveras will form Baltimore's outfield trio while Robert sits.

  • Daulton Varsho CF | HOU

    Astros' Daulton Varsho: Not in Tuesday's lineup

    Varsho is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the White Sox, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

    Varsho will take a seat Tuesday after posting a .678 OPS while starting the previous 11 contests. Taylor Trammell will shift to center field, which opens up left for LaMonte Wade.

  • White Sox's Braden Montgomery: Taking seat Tuesday

    Montgomery isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Astros.

    Montgomery will retreat to the bench Tuesday after going 0-for-5 during Monday's loss. Randal Grichuk will replace him in right field and bat sixth.

  • Jake Meyers CF | HOU

    Astros' Jake Meyers: Back in big leagues

    The Astros recalled Meyers from Triple-A Sugar Land on Tuesday, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

    Meyers will join the Astros for the stretch run after spending the past few weeks with Sugar Land. After posting a .727 OPS in 104 regular-season games in 2025, the 30-year-old started Opening Day for the Astros this season but has scuffled to a .213/.268/.326 slash line in 54 MLB contests.

  • Riley Greene LF | DET

    Tigers' Riley Greene: Reinstated, batting cleanup Tuesday

    The Tigers activated Greene (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list, and he's starting in left field and batting cleanup Tuesday against the Twins.

    The 25-year-old outfielder has been sidelined since suffering a hamstring string Aug. 12 but is now back with the Tigers for the final month of the season. Greene went 1-for-6 with two walks in two rehab games and will look to shake off the slow start to August that saw him bat .214 (6-for-28) with two extra-base hits and 12 strikeouts.

  • Daz Cameron RF | TOR

    Blue Jays' Daz Cameron: DFA'd by Toronto

    The Blue Jays designated Cameron for assignment Tuesday.

    Cameron's stint in the majors lasted a couple weeks, as he went 5-for-24 with one home run and a 0:7 BB:K. He is likely to clear waivers, and if that happens the 29-year-old would have the ability to elect free agency.

  • Orioles' Christian Franklin: Out with hand inflammation

    The Orioles placed Franklin on the 10-day injured list Tuesday, retroactive to Aug. 31, due to left hand inflammation.

    It's unclear when or how Franklin sustained the injury, though he last appeared in Sunday's game against the A's and went 0-for-3 with a strikeout. He'll be eligible to be reinstated Sept. 11 in Toronto, though it's unclear how long he's expected to be sidelined.

  • Denzel Clarke CF | ATH

    Athletics' Denzel Clarke: Reinstated from 60-day injured list

    The Athletics activated Clarke (hamstring) from the 60-day injured list Tuesday.

    Clarke has been out of commission since late April, first due to a bone bruise in his foot and later because of a severe hamstring strain. The outfielder has hit only .214/.262/.323 with a 38.8 percent strikeout rate in his first 219 big-league plate appearances. However, Clarke's elite defense could mean regular reps in center field down the stretch, with Henry Bolte shifting to left field.
