Royals manager Matt Quatraro said that Caglianone is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Blue Jays due to a Grade 1 flexor strain and is considered day-to-day, Joel Penfield of KCSN.com reports.

Caglianone sustained the injury in Saturday's 4-3 loss, when he delivered an RBI single in his lone at-bat and made two throws in the outfield before exiting after two innings. Quatraro said that Caglianone won't do any baseball activities Sunday and will be re-evaluated Monday before the Royals decide on his next steps. At this stage, Quatraro didn't express much concern that the elbow issue would force Caglianone to the injured list.

Trout (hand) will start at designated hitter and bat second in Sunday's game against the Pirates, Erica Weston of Angels Broadcast Television reports.

Trout was lifted for a pinch runner after being hit by a pitch in the left hand during the top of the ninth inning of Saturday's 6-1 win, but his removal appears to have been mostly precautionary. X-rays on his hand following the game returned negative, and any soreness or swelling Trout might have experienced seems to have subsided enough for him to swing the bat without issue in Sunday's series finale. He'll get a day as the Angels' DH but will likely return to his usual spot in center field Monday in Boston.

The Tigers transferred Vierling (adductor/heel) from the 10-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Sunday, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.

Vierling initially landed on the IL on July 31 due to a left adductor strain. He then suffered a heel injury in late August, and the pair of issues will result in Vierling being ruled out for the remainder of the regular season. He could theoretically return for the playoffs, but that might be a moot point with Detroit currently 6.5 games back of a wild-card spot.

McCray went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in Saturday's 9-5 win over the Mets.

McCray hit a leadoff single in the third inning before coming around to score, and he also launched a solo shot in the ninth. The 25-year-old recorded his first multi-hit performance of the season and is now slashing .143/.262/.304 with 11 runs scored, four stolen bases, three RBI and two long balls across 68 plate appearances in 2026.

Jorge is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Brewers.

Jorge was called up from Triple-A Louisville on Friday and made his first MLB start Saturday, going 0-for-4 with two strikeouts. The 22-year-old will shift to the bench Sunday as lefty Kyle Harrison takes the mound for Milwaukee, with Jorge expected to continue operating on the strong side of a platoon in center field moving forward. Dane Myers is starting in center and batting leadoff for Cincinnati.

Baltimore recalled Hinds from Triple-A Norfolk on Sunday.

Hinds had already seen action in the majors with two different clubs this season, slashing .114/.158/.200 with no homers and five RBI across 13 games between Cincinnati and Miami. He'll look to make a better impression with the Orioles, who traded for Hinds in early August. Hinds doesn't figure to start regularly, but he'll give Baltimore outfield depth with both Tyler O'Neill (shoulder) and Christian Franklin (hand) currently on the injured list.

Caglianone (elbow) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Blue Jays.

Per MLB.com, Caglianone is set to receive imaging on his sore left elbow after the injury forced him out of Saturday's 4-3 loss after just two innings. John Rave will replace Caglianone in right field and bat leadoff in the series finale versus Toronto.

DeLauter (wrist) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Tigers, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.

The rookie slugger is considered day-to-day while he manages a right wrist sprain and will be kept on the bench for a second straight game. With DeLauter taking a seat, the Guardians will use Jo Adell in right field and Steven Kwan at designated hitter.

Boston recalled Eaton from Triple-A Worcester on Sunday, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.

In a stint with the big-league club from mid-June to mid-July earlier this season, Eaton slashed just .125/.282/.281 with one homer, five RBI and two stolen bases over 14 games. He's been a bit better in the minors, posting a .756 OPS across 363 plate appearances while swiping 19 bags for Worcester. Eaton's call-up is a corresponding move to Ceddanne Rafaela (quadriceps) being placed on the 10-day IL.

Boston placed Rafaela on the 10-day injured list Sunday due to a right quadriceps strain.

Rafaela exited Wednesday's loss to Seattle due to what the Red Sox initially labeled as quad tightness. Though the Red Sox initially had optimism that the 25-year-old could avoid a stint on the IL, he'll end up going on the shelf after he was unable to play in any of the team's last three games. Boston recalled Nate Eaton from Triple-A Worcester to replace Rafaela on the active roster, though Eli White will ikely be the biggest beneficiary in terms of playing time. Since the IL move is retroactive to Thursday, Rafaela could be activated as soon as Sept. 13.
