Samuel Basallo doubled and struck out three times in his first game for Triple-A Norfolk on Sunday.

Basallo, who is on the IL with shoulder inflammation, caught most of the game before exiting late. He seems likely to be back with the Orioles by Friday at the latest.

Seaver King

WSH Shortstop

Seaver King went 2-for-4 and homered for Triple-A Rochester on Sunday.

That’s four homers in eight games for King, and he’s 20-for-55 with a 14/8 K/BB in 14 games since returning from an oblique strain. That the Nationals are moving CJ Abrams to second base clears to the way for King to take over shortstop as soon as the Nationals think the 2024 first-round pick is ready. It might not happen until next year, but he’s making a case.

Trevor Story

BOS Shortstop #10

Trevor Story opened his rehab assignment by going 1-for-2 for Triple-A Worcester on Sunday.

Story, who played about half of the game at shortstop, had a 97-mph single and a 351-foot flyout before departing. He’s been out for three months following hernia surgery, so he’ll probably need at least a week in the minors before rejoining the Red Sox.

Spencer Arrighetti allowed two runs in 3 2/3 innings in his rehab start for Triple-A Buffalo on Sunday.

Arrighetti is trying to pitch through his foot nerve issue, and he was somewhat successful Sunday even though his velocity was down 1.5-2 mph. He’ll probably make one more rehab start before the Jays consider handing him a rotation spot.

Tony Santillan threw a scoreless inning in his rehab appearance for Triple-A Louisville on Sunday.

Santillan’s velocity in his second rehab outing was down about 1.5 mph on his fastball and three mph on his slider from where he was before landing on the IL with an oblique strain in late June. Still, the Reds probably won’t wait much longer to activate him.

The Mets are bumping newly acquired infielder Émilien Pitre up to Triple-A Syracuse.

The 23-year-old Pitre, who was picked up from the Rays in the Freddy Peralta trade, had hit .375/.386/.375 in 10 games for Double-A Binghamton, putting him at .316/.433/.439 overall in 98 games between High-A and Double-A this year. If Marcus Semien fails to bounce back, he could be a candidate to see time at second base for the Mets next year.

2024 first-round pick Vance Honeycutt is being promoted to Double-A Chesapeake.

This is rather interesting, especially since Honeycutt just returned a few days ago from a four-week absence due to a strained oblique. The 23-year-old strikeout artist was hitting just .182/.285/.359 while repeating in High-A ball. He’s fanned 312 times while collecting a total of 113 hits in 748 plate appearances since debuting in the minors.

The Red Sox are moving Justin Gonzales up to Double-A Portland.

Gonzales is widely regarded as Boston’s No. 2 prospect now that the other contenders for that spot were all sent to Baltimore for Adley Rutschman. The 19-year-old hit .271/.391/.463 with 17 homers in 422 plate appearances for High-A Greenville.

Bryan Woo experienced shoulder soreness before coming out of Sunday night’s game against the Astros, manager Dan Wilson said.

Woo completed six innings in the win tonight, but he was only at 75 pitches, and it sounds like he would have continued if not for the shoulder issue getting him lifted as a precaution. Woo said after the game that he wasn’t concerned about it. Still, if he winds up on the IL, that would open up a spot for top prospect Kade Anderson. Anderson, though, should really be in the majors regardless.

SEA Catcher #29

Cal Raleigh homered and walked in the Mariners’ 3-2 win over the Astros on Sunday Night Baseball.

The homer, which unfortunately followed a caught stealing from Josh Naylor, was far from a bomb, but it made it into the Crawford Boxes at Daikin Park. Statcast had it at .327 feet and said it would have been a homer in one ballpark. Maybe it’ll give Raleigh some momentum anyway. It was his second hit in seven games and his 13th homer of the year. He still hasn’t had two hits in a game since July 7.
