    Outman cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Toledo on Tuesday, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

    The 29-year-old was reinstated from the concussion injured list Sunday and was then designated for assignment by Detroit, but he'll stick in the organization after passing through waivers unclaimed. Outman has struggled with both the Tigers and Twins this season, posting a combined .172/.235/.318 slash line and 41.8 percent strikeout rate in 94 games.

  • Dane Myers CF | CIN

    Reds' Dane Myers: Idle Tuesday

    Myers is not in the lineup Tuesday versus the Giants.

    Myers went 0-for-4 in the series-opening 5-0 loss to the Giants on Monday. Myers last sat Aug. 17 against the Cardinals, but he came off the bench for a game-tying, pinch-hit home run in the bottom of the ninth. As for Tuesday, TJ Friedl has the start in center field and is batting ninth.

  • Aaron Judge RF | NYY

    Yankees' Aaron Judge: Progressing to cage work

    Manager Aaron Boone said Judge (ribs) is scheduled to hit in the batting cage Tuesday, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

    The 34-year-old started up a hitting progression last week and is now ready to move on to hitting overhand batting practice after previously being limited to tee-and-toss. Judge also continues to play catch and run while working his way back from a stress fracture in his rib. He's progressing well, but it'll likely be at least a couple more weeks before he has a realistic chance of rejoining the Yankees.

  • Roman Anthony LF | BOS

    Red Sox's Roman Anthony: Friday return in play

    Anthony (finger) said Tuesday that he could be ready to return from the 60-day injured list Friday against the Yankees, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.

    It's unclear whether the Red Sox share the same sentiment, but Anthony appears to be nearing the end of his rehab assignment. The outfielder gone 3-for-11 with one home run and a 2:4 BB:K over his first four rehab contests with Double-A Portland and is moving his rehab to Triple-A Worcester this week. Anthony has been sidelined since early May with a partially torn tendon in his right ring finger.

  • Rikuu Nishida RF | CHW

    White Sox's Rikuu Nishida: Added to roster

    The White Sox recalled Nishida from Triple-A Charlotte on Tuesday.

    He'll absorb the roster spot vacated by Andrew Benintendi (bereavement). Nishida will likely be around only while Benintendi is on the bereavement list.

  • Sal Frelick RF | MIL

    Brewers' Sal Frelick: Comes off injured list

    The Brewers reinstated Frelick (shoulder) from the 10-day injured list Tuesday, though he's not in the lineup against the Mets, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

    The outfielder has been on the shelf since just after the All-Star break due to a shoulder strain, and he's now back on the active roster after posting a .951 OPS with four doubles and two homers during a 10-game rehab assignment. Frelick's .631 OPS through 90 games this season would be a career worst, so he may need to improve his offensive production to fend off Luis Lara for playing time.

  • Royals' Jac Caglianone: Remains out with sore ankle

    Caglianone (ankle) is not in the lineup for Tuesday's contest in Toronto.

    Caglianone will miss a second straight start due to right ankle soreness, an injury that's been nagging at him for at least a week. John Rave will occupy right field for the Royals on Tuesday while Caglianone recuperates.

  • Dodgers' Teoscar Hernandez: Taking seat Tuesday

    Hernandez is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's game in Atlanta.

    Hernandez is in the midst of an 18-game homerless stretch and is slashing .172/.200/.241 over that span. Alex Call will get the start in left field for the Dodgers while Hernandez regroups.
