Rocchio is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays.

Rocchio had made eight straight starts, but his offensive slump continued during that stretch as he went just 5-for-29. Angel Genao will cover shortstop Wednesday in Rocchio's stead.

Montgomery went 2-for-4 with a double, two RBI, a run scored and a walk in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Astros.

Montgomery delivered the biggest hit of the game for the White Sox with a two-run double in the sixth off Kai-Wei Teng, scoring Miguel Vargas and Andrew Benintendi. All three elements of his slash line are lower compared to the 2025 season, but Montgomery has been a productive either way. He has 29 homers, 22 doubles, 79 RBI and 63 runs scored through 130 games in 2026.

Neto went 2-for-4 with a double, a stolen base and a run scored in Tuesday's 7-3 loss to the Yankees.

Neto has gone 21-for-55 (.381) with eight extra-base hits and three steals over his last 13 games. It's a return to productivity for the shortstop after he endured some struggles in late July and early August. He's batting .238 with a .753 OPS, 23 home runs, 19 steals, 66 RBI, 88 runs scored, 28 doubles and four triples over 134 contests this season.

The Angels recalled Paris from Triple-A Salt Lake on Tuesday.

Paris has slashed .307/.427/.554 with 13 home runs and 16 stolen bases across 288 plate appearances through 62 games since getting promoted to Triple-A Salt Lake on June 9. The 24-year-old got a run of 44 games for the Angels in 2025, when he slashed .190/.266/.381 with six home runs and seven stolen bases across 139 plate appearances. He will look to improve upon that in September and may see action at second base, shortstop, left field and center field.

Correa (ankle) has been cleared to continue ramping up his rehab at the Astros' spring training complex in Florida, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

Coming back from left ankle surgery, Correa said Tuesday that he's been sprinting at 95 percent effort, fielding grounders and doing everything hitting-wise aside from facing live pitching. He is due to face live pitching in Florida and will also progress to running the bases and sliding. It was presumed when he had surgery in May that Correa's season was over, but he has a real chance to return later this month.

The Twins selected Ross's contract from Triple-A St. Paul on Tuesday.

Ross has slashed .274/.378/.506 with 20 homers and 20 steals between Double-A Wichita and St. Paul this season to earn his first big-league promotion. The 25-year-old can play all over the diamond, giving the Twins depth at multiple positions.

Yankees manager Aaron Boone said on the "Talkin' Yanks" podcast by Jomboy Media that Lombard (knee) will remain out of the lineup for Tuesday's game versus the Angels.

Nursing right knee inflammation, Lombard ran and took grounders pregame Monday and will likely do so again Tuesday, but he will be held out of the lineup for the third consecutive contest. Boone reiterated Tuesday that he does not anticipate Lombard requiring a stint on the injured list, though he didn't completely rule it out. The Yankees wrap up their series against the Angels on Wednesday and are idle Thursday, so it wouldn't be a surprise if Lombard is held out until Friday in San Diego. Jose Caballero has been filling in at shortstop for the Bronx Bombers.

Montgomery went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, a double, two walks and two runs scored Monday against the Astros.

Montgomery was the key offensive contributor for the White Sox, first doubling in the fourth inning before coming around to score. Three frames later, he smacked his 29th home run of the season and his third in his last nine starts. Montgomery continues to display an extreme skill profile, as he's also hitting just .214 while striking out at a 33.9 percent clip across 545 plate appearances on the campaign.

Ross is expected to have his contract selected from Triple-A Saint Paul ahead of Tuesday's game against the Tigers, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.

Ross is expected to join the Twins as one of the club's September call-ups when rosters expand Tuesday. He's slashing .249/.353/.458 with 15 home runs, 55 RBI, 13 stolen bases and 56 runs in 102 games in his first season at Triple-A and has primarily played third base, shortstop and center field for the Saints in 2026.

Jackson (undisclosed) has gone 5-for-25 (.200 average) with two doubles, two steals and a 2:5 BB:K in six games for Double-A Somerset since being reinstated from the 7-day injured list Aug. 23.

Jackson ended up missing just over a week due to an unspecified injury. The 22-year-old infielder owns a .238/.327/.333 slash line and has gone a perfect 6-for-6 on stolen-base attempts over 49 plate appearances at Somerset since being promoted from High-A Hudson Valley on Aug. 11.
