    Red Sox sent RHP Scott Atchison outright to Triple-A Pawtucket.
    Atchison passed through waivers with ease after being designated for assignment late-last month. He’ll come to spring training as a non-roster player. The 35-year-old right-hander posted a 3.26 ERA and 17/6 K/BB ratio over 30 1/3 innings with the Red Sox last year.

    The Yankees are planning to place José Caballero on the injured list with a finger injury and recall Anthony Volpe.
    Francys Romero was the first to report that Volpe was on the way back to the majors. Still no word yet on the severity of Calabllero’s injury. He was hurt Sunday, but the Yankees used him as a pinch-runner in Monday’s game.
    Mariners welcome Padres for Sunday Night Baseball
    Interconference rivals go head-to-head on Sunday Night Baseball as the NL West leading San Diego Padres visit the Seattle Mariners.
  • MIL Left Fielder #22
    Brewers activated OF Christian Yelich from the 10-day injured list.
    Tyler Black was sent down to make room. Yelich is back from a groin strain suffered exactly one month ago. He’ll surely DH most of the time for the Brewers, which will typically leave just one lineup spot for Garrett Mitchell and Jake Bauers against right-handers. That’ll have the Brewers picking between defense and offense, with Mitchell in center and Jackson Chourio in left or Chourio in center and Bauers in left. Bauers probably ought to be dropped in leagues in which he was picked up.
  • MIL 3rd Baseman #7
    Brewers optioned INF/OF Tyler Black to Triple-A Nashville.
    In spite of his success at the end of last month, Black wasn’t finding much playing time with Andrew Vaughn back, and now he also would have Christian Yelich to contend with. So, he’ll resume playing regularly in the minors after going 9-for-27 with four doubles and seven RBI during his 2 1/2 weeks in the majors.
  • NYM Relief Pitcher #33
    A.J. Minter threw a bullpen session Tuesday and expects to return to his rehab assignment by this weekend.
    Minter, who is trying to come back from lat surgery, recently had a setback with his surgically repaired hip, causing him to be pulled off his rehab assignment last week. He might be back in the Mets bullpen by the end of the month.
  • LAA Right Fielder #7
    Despite going 5-for-8 with two homers in his last two games, Jo Adell has been dropped to seventh in the Angels lineup on Tuesday.
    Vaughn Grissom is replacing him in the fifth spot. Adell is hitting .279/.318/.418, but the Angels are apparently hoping to get more out of Grissom’s on-base ability. It’s the first time this season that Adell has hit lower than sixth.
  • TOR Left Fielder #36
    Davis Schneider is hitting eighth against Rays lefty Shane McClanahan on Tuesday.
    Schneider is hitting .143/.324/.250 on the season and hasn’t started against a righty since Apr. 26. One wonders if he might be tracking for a Triple-A demotion if the Jays start getting healthy. Lenyn Sosa is getting more starts than Schneider and hitting higher in the lineup when both play versus lefties. He’s at second base and batting fifth tonight.
  • MIL Starting Pitcher #46
    Quinn Priester will restart his rehab assignment this weekend as he tries to return from thoracic outlet syndrome.
    Priester last pitched on May 1, giving up five runs while getting six outs for Triple-A Nashville. His fastball velocity has been down 2.4 mph from last year in his three Triple-A outings.
  • MIL Left Fielder #20
    The Brewers believe Brandon Lockridge will be back in mid-to-late June after an MRI showed a bone bruise in his leg.
    Lockridge also suffered a severe laceration when his right leg slid into an unpadded corner of the wall at Miller Park last week. Blake Perkins and Tyler Black are in line for extra at-bats while Lockridge is out, though Black might soon be sent down to make room for Christian Yelich on the roster.
  • NYM Left Fielder #22
    Carson Benge is in the leadoff spot, with Juan Soto dropped to third, in Tuesday’s Mets lineup.
    A.J. Ewing debuts in the eighth spot. The Mets are just trying to find any combination that works. Soto had led off six games in a row after hitting second previously. Bo Bichette, who was leading off when Soto was hitting second, remains in the second spot for now. Benge had a brief three-game run in the leadoff spot last month, but this is his first time hitting higher than fifth since Apr. 19.
  • BOS 1st Baseman #40
    Willson Contreras is out of Tuesday’s lineup after leaving Sunday’s game with a right hand injury.
    Tests were negative on the hand after he was hit by a pitch, so he’s presumably still just day-to-day. Mickey Gaspar is starting at first base tonight.
