Pitching Injuries & Roster Moves

Blue Jays starter Dylan Cease exited early with left hamstring discomfort, while teammate Vladimir Guerrero Jr. also left after a hit-by-pitch, compounding Toronto's offensive concerns. Meanwhile, the Brewers optioned reliever Robert Gasser to Triple-A amid indications he may have been tipping pitches during a recent meltdown against the Dodgers. In Colorado, left-hander Jose Quintana departed in the second inning with left elbow tightness, and Nationals right-hander Jake Irvin landed on the IL with a shoulder strain he described as "positive" news relative to worse diagnoses. Tigers second baseman Gleyber Torres halted swinging as his oblique strain lingers, while Dodgers utilityman Kiké Hernández is poised to debut Monday after elbow surgery recovery.

Mets star Juan Soto was scratched from Sunday's lineup due to illness, a late blow to New York's batting order. Yankees slugger Aaron Judge halted his homer drought with a walk-off two-run blast against the Rays, ending an 11-game stretch without an RBI. The Red Sox, meanwhile, ramped up ace Garrett Crochet's return, scheduling a batting practice session as he comes back from shoulder inflammation.
