No. 1 is health and getting him back and building up the volume. We're continuing to do that,' Met president of baseball operations David Stearns said last Friday. 'Any time you see players consistently hit lasers all over the field, which is what he's doing right now in Triple-A, you pay attention. We're paying attention and will continue to monitor that and see where it goes.' Advertisement The Mets wanted to give Mauricio plenty of time to get his feet back under him following the injury, but Stearns previously said those plans could be altered if the major-league roster needed help. CHECK OUT THE LATEST MLB STANDINGS AND METS STATS It's not yet known whether the Mets are demoting a player or making a move to replace Vientos, who grabbed his hamstring while attempting to run Monday night. Both Vientos and manager Carlos Mendoza indicated they did not know yet if he would have to be sidelined. 'There aren't specific, 'You need to check this box. You need to check that box,' ' Stearns said of Mauricio last week. 'I think it's more subjective. Is he comfortable playing the field regularly? Does he look right? Offensively, it sure does seem he got himself right pretty quickly, which is very impressive. He certainly has development left in his offensive game. He's likely never going to be the type of guy with Juan Soto-type plate discipline. But there are probably some strides he can make there.'

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The New York Yankees have made a massive roster move, activating All-Star infielder Jazz Chisholm Jr. from his rehab assignment and off the 10-day injured list, and adding reliever Luke Weaver to the 15-day IL, among other transactions. Right-hander Fernando Cruz has been reinstated from the injured list, right-hander Yerry de los Santos was recalled from Triple-A, Jorbit Vivas was optioned to Triple-A, and right-hander Carlos Carrasco was designated for assignment. Jazz Chisholm Jr. #13 of the New York Yankees slides into third base after advancing on an error after hitting a double in the first inning against the Baltimore Orioles at Oriole Park at Camden... Jazz Chisholm Jr. #13 of the New York Yankees slides into third base after advancing on an error after hitting a double in the first inning against the Baltimore Orioles at Oriole Park at Camden Yards on April 29, 2025 in Baltimore, Maryland. Chisholm left the game after the play with an injury. More Photo byMore news: Yankees Lose Star Pitcher for Summer Months After Injury Diagnosis Prior to tonight's game, the Yankees made the following roster moves: • Returned INF Jazz Chisholm Jr. (#13) from his rehab assignment and reinstated him from the 10-day injured list. • Reinstated RHP Fernando Cruz (#63) from the 15-day injured list. • Recalled RHP Yerry de… — New York Yankees (@Yankees) June 3, 2025 Chisholm last played on April 29, before a right oblique strain sidelined him for what would turn into the entirety of May. After three rehab games in Double-A, the infielder looks ready to return to the diamond. Weaver recently suffered a hamstring injury while warming up on Sunday against the Los Angeles Dodgers. ESPN's Jeff Passan reported that an MRI revealed he could miss four to six weeks of action. The right-hander has been electric for New York this season, posting a 1.05 ERA across 25.2 frames of work, allowing just three runs in this time. He has 24 strikeouts in as many outings to just seven walks on the year. It appears that Devin Williams will go back to his role as closer amid Weaver's absence. The struggling Williams has a 6.23 ERA across 21.2 innings pitched this season and will have to take a major step up with the increased workload. There will be more bullpen help on the way as Cruz will continue to build upon his 2.66 ERA over 23.2 frames this season. The right-hander has an ERA+ of 150 this season, ranking him 50 percent better than qualified pitchers as he looks to get back to his first season as a Yankee. De los Santos will also look to take on a larger role, as he has allowed four runs in 12 innings of work in Pinstripes. He has dazzled the mound in 10.1 frames in Triple-A with a 1.74 ERA, striking out 11 batters and walking four. Vivas split time across second and third base since the beginning of May, but was struggling at the plate with a .156 batting average across 45 at-bats. The 24-year-old heads back to Triple-A, where he was hitting .319 before his call-up. The right-handed veteran Carrasco struggled in his eight appearances for the Yankees as he allowed 21 runs in 32 innings. The 38-year-old will look for another opportunity to extend his 16-year MLB career.

Another Top MN Twins Prospect Hits the IL
The Minnesota Twins have trended back towards a clean bill of health at the major league level. Royce Lewis has been back for a while now, and both Byron Buxton and Carlos Correa returned from their collision. Matt Wallner became the latest to rejoin Rocco Baldelli's 31-27 squad over the weekend. Unfortunately the top prospect health has not been as great on the farm. Walker Jenkins has played just two games this season after dealing with an ankle injury that stems from Spring Training. Emmanuel Rodriguez also suffered an ankle injury around the same time but has been available. Advertisement That is until now. Rodriguez has had a relatively consistent career of injuries, and his latest lands him on the St. Paul Saints injured list. Emmanuel Rodriguez injured at Triple-A for Minnesota Twins If there are three things synonymous with Emmanuel Rodriguez they are patience, power, and injuries. The Minnesota Twins star prospect has constantly been tied to all three during his professional career. A new injury, this time his right hip, lands him on the Triple-A injured list. Rodriguez last played on May 30 for St. Paul. He was lifted for Jeferson Morales and then missed each of the Saints last two games. Minnesota responded by placing him on the injured list with a right hip issue. Advertisement Last season Rodriguez played in just 47 games after dealing with a thumb injury that ultimately required season-ending surgery. He got 99 games in with Cedar Rapids during 2023, but it's the only season of his five-year career in which he has played more than 47 games. This year, his first full season at Triple-A, Rodriguez has performed to his offensive track record. He owns a .232/.400/.392 slash line. The outfielder has posted six doubles, a triple, and four home runs with a 56/32 K/BB ratio. Rodriguez is a capable centerfielder that is more likely destined for a corner spot. His patience at the plate can be to his detriment, and is a reason the average sags. He does have legitimate plus-power and is considered a consensus top 25 prospect across baseball. Advertisement Amidst the roster shuffling for St. Paul, they do get Payton Eeles back. He is an independent baseball success story that has climbed the Twins minor league ranks. The 25-year-old made it from Single-A to Triple-A last season and owned a .299/.419/.500 line with St. Paul across 64 games. It wouldn't be a shock to see the utility infielder debut with Minnesota this season. How long will the Twins miss E-Rod this time? Each year an injury seems to befall Rodriguez and the Minnesota Twins prospect misses a sizable chunk of time. The severity of this hip injury has not yet been reported, but the timing isn't great. Rodriguez is on the 40-man and would be a candidate to make his big league debut. ESPN Insider Kiley McDaniel recently noted this exact scenario for Rodriguez. 'Rodriguez gets hurt a lot but is at Triple-A doing his usual thing: low average, crazy-high walk rate, power and solid center-field defense.' Kiley McDaniel – ESPN McDaniel called Rodriguez the Twins 'next to debut' but this certainly throws water on that. Carson McCusker got a promotion only after a rash of injuries. DaShawn Keirsey Jr. was optioned after Matt Wallner returned, and his .109/.136/.156 line won't earn him a return all too soon. Advertisement Theoretically Rodriguez could have been next in line if Minnesota needed a regular outfielder. The 22 year old's latest injury puts a wrench in the plan though. The hope should be that this injury doesn't cost him significant time, but that's never been a reality for the Dominican Republic native. Related Headlines

Red Sox calling up 2 players from Triple-A on Sunday — but not Roman Anthony
ATLANTA — The Red Sox roster that takes the field Sunday at Truist Park is expected to look a little bit different than the one that was shut out Saturday afternoon in a 5-0 loss. Two reinforcements are en route from Triple-A Worcester — but Roman Anthony is not being promoted. Boston is expected to promote utility man Nate Eaton and right-handed reliever Luis Guerrero before Sunday's series finale in Atlanta, multiple sources confirmed. Advertisement (UPDATE: Boston placed reliever Justin Slaten on the 15-day injured list (right elbow inflammation), optioned utility man Nick Sogard to Triple-A and designated catcher Blake Sabol for assignment in a series of roster moves Sunday morning). Eaton, a 28-year-old who has 72 games of MLB experience with Kansas City, has hit .277 with five homers, 27 RBIs and an .811 OPS while playing six different positions for the WooSox this year. He's a right-handed hitter, giving him a short-term edge over Anthony, who the Red Sox are keeping in Worcester for at least a few more days. Eaton, who has primarily played third base (164 innings), center field (156.1 innings) and right field (79.2 innings) for the WooSox, has hit .300 with an .844 OPS against left-handed pitchers in Triple-A this year. The Red Sox will face two southpaws early in the week when the Angels come to town and start Tyler Anderson and Yusei Kikuchi, then could have more matchups against southpaws like Ryan Yarbrough and/or Carlos Rodón over the weekend in the Bronx. The thinking might be that Anthony, a left-handed hitter, doesn't represent as good of a short-term option — and the service time equation obviously plays a role, too. 'I don't think there's a perfect answer to that,' chief baseball officer Craig Breslow said Saturday when asked about a timeline for Anthony's big league debut. 'We're trying to balance what's best for Roman and his development with where we are as a team and the way we're prioritizing our 2025 season. We try to lean on the goals and process you think about in the offseason when the noise isn't quite so loud. Advertisement 'I think you also have to be willing to react to the situation you have right now. It's impossible to ignore the performance he has had in Triple-A and how that's lining up with our struggles here at the big league level, but we're also trying to be mindful of the environment that we put him in, what he still has to work on, and what the pressure and demands would be. We'll try to make the best decision we can for him.' Guerrero, 24, has bounced back and forth between the big leagues at Triple-A throughout the year. He has a 1.69 ERA in four big league games and a 4.43 ERA in 20 ⅓ innings for the WooSox. The flamethrower owns a 1.17 ERA and 13 strikeouts in 15 ⅓ MLB frames over the last two seasons. Beyond the Monster's Chris Henrique first reported the Eaton promotion. More Red Sox coverage Read the original article on MassLive.

Mariners promote infield prospect Cole Young from Triple-A Tacoma
SEATTLE — The Seattle Mariners promoted infield prospect Cole Young from Triple-A Tacoma ahead of their game against the Minnesota Twins on Saturday. Right-hander Bryce Miller was also reinstated from the 15-day injured list and is expected to start. Infielder Leo Rivas and right-hander Casey Legumina were optioned to Triple-A Tacoma in corresponding moves. The Mariners also designated right-hander Will Klein for assignment. Young, 21, was a No. 21 overall pick in the 2022 MLB amateur draft and was the Mariners' No. 3 overall prospect, per MLB Pipeline, at the time of his promotion. He was off to a solid start to the year in the Pacific Coast League. For the season, Young was hitting .277 with an .853 OPS for the Rainiers. In May, though, Young was particularly excellent, hitting .366 with a .467 on-base percentage, as well as 10 doubles, three triples and five home runs.
