The Guardians recalled Halpin from Triple-A Columbus on Tuesday, reports Cade Cracas of Sports Illustrated.

Halpin will return to the big-league club after recently being demoted two weeks ago on June 2. At the major-league level, the 24-year-old slugged just .167/.194/.200 in 31 plate appearances. Halpin will rejoin the club as the corresponding move to Angel Martinez (foot) being placed on the 10-day injured list.

Martinez (foot) will be placed on the 10-day injured list Tuesday, reports Cade Cracas of Sports Illustrated.

After suffering a left foot bruise, which is now deemed to be a fracture, Saturday and sitting out Sunday's matinee, Martinez will be placed on the 10-day IL. Prior to his injury, Martinez batted .239/.276/.442 with 11 homers and 33 RBI this season. Petey Halpin was recalled from Triple-A Columbus to take Martinez's spot on the active roster.

Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Tuesday that Grisham has been diagnosed with a "moderate" right hamstring strain, Brendan Kuty of The Athletic reports.

Grisham landed on the 10-day injured list over the weekend, and an MRI on Monday revealed the moderate strain. Boone did not offer a specific timetable for Grisham's return, but it wouldn't be a surprise if he's held out through the All-Star break. Spencer Jones and Cody Bellinger will be tasked with holding down center field while Grisham is out.

Anthony (finger) underwent a follow-up MRI on Tuesday that came back clean, but he's not yet cleared to swing a bat, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.

The 22-year-old has attempted to swing a bat a couple times but has felt pain when swinging, so interim manager Chad Tracy said the club is taking it day-by-day with Anthony's progress. The MRI results are an encouraging development, but the young outfielder still has a long way to go before potentially coming off the injured list.

Meyers is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Tigers.

Meyers has now been out of the starting lineup for consecutive games and five times over the Astros' past 12 contests. He's slashing only .220/.277/.339 over 37 contests this season. Brice Matthews will be starting in center field for the second straight day.

Stowers is not in the starting lineup for Tuesday's matchup against the Phillies.

Miami will give Stowers a rare rest from the lineup Tuesday after he went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts Monday. After a career year in 2025, the 28-year-old has slashed just .211/.297/.362 with five homers in 210 plate appearances this season. Connor Norby will replace Stowers at first base and bat ninth in Tuesday's lineup.

Triple-A St. Paul placed Mendez on its 7-day injured list Saturday due to a left shoulder impingement, Theodore Tollefson of ZoneCoverage.com reports.

After opening the season at Double-A Wichita, Mendez earned a promotion to Triple-A in early May and has continued mashing, producing a .321/.431/.468 slash line with four home runs and three stolen bases in 130 plate appearances for St. Paul. Assuming Mendez is able to move past the shoulder issue quickly, he'll have a shot at making his MLB debut at some point in the second half of the season.

Triple-A St. Paul reinstated Roden (shoulder) from its 7-day injured list Monday.

Roden is expected to play in Tuesday's series opener versus Omaha in what will be his first appearance for St. Paul since April 22. After being shut down due to a torn labrum in his throwing shoulder, Roden was cleared to rejoin St. Paul after completing a rehab assignment over the past two weeks, during which he went 5-for-12 with a home run, two doubles and seven walks in five games between the rookie-level Florida Complex League and Single-A Fort Myers.

Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Tuesday on the "Talkin' Yanks" podcast by Jomboy Media that he expects Grisham (hamstring) to be sidelined for "a few weeks."

Grisham was placed on the 10-day injured list Saturday with a right hamstring strain. He was scheduled for an MRI on Monday, and while Boone didn't reveal the results of that imaging, the skipper did offer a rough timetable for Grisham's return to action. Spencer Jones and Cody Bellinger have each netted one start in center field since Grisham was hurt.

Butler went 2-for-4 with a double, an RBI and two runs scored in Monday's win over the Pirates.

Butler extended the Athletics' lead with an RBI double off the wall in left-center field in the seventh inning, giving him his third multi-hit effort over the past four games. The 25-year-old has been much better at the plate of late, going 10-for-24 (.417) with a homer, two doubles, four RBI and five runs across his past eight appearances. With Brent Rooker (knee) sidelined, there's more of an opportunity for Carlos Cortes to shift to designated hitter and Butler to play right field against right-handed pitching, as was the case Monday. Overall, Butler is hitting .193 with a .565 OPS, four homers, five doubles, 18 RBI, 22 runs and four stolen bases across 196 plate appearances this season.
