Seattle optioned Trammell to Triple-A Tacoma on Thursday, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports. This move clears out a major-league roster spot for Mike Ford, whose contract will be selected Friday. Trammell, 25, has batted just .133/.278/.333 across 20 games (54 plate appearances) this year in the big leagues.

Julien will be optioned to Triple-A St. Paul on Thursday, Betsy Helfand of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports. Julien performed well after being recalled to the majors May 20, slashing .286/.333/.500 with two homers and four RBI in 36 plate appearances. He'll be forced back to Triple-A due to the return of Jorge Polanco (hamstring), but the 24-year-old prospect will almost certainly be back with the Twins at some point this year if he continues to crush minor-league pitching.

Astros manager Dusty Baker said Brantley (shoulder) hit off a tee Thursday, Danielle Lerner of the Houston Chronicle reports. Brantley began taking dry swings last week, but this was the first time he put bat-to-ball since his setback in early May. The veteran has been out all season while recovering from August 2022 shoulder labrum surgery and there remains no timetable for his 2023 debut, but he at least seems to be on the right track again with his rehab.

On Dec. 2, 2022, Arkansas coach Sam Pittman finally let out a huge sigh of relief. That was the day star quarterback KJ Jefferson announced he would stay with the Razorbacks instead of going to the NFL or entering the transfer portal. Looking to close his collegiate experience on a high note, Jefferson has been a star in the making since his first career start in 2020.

DENVER -- That was decisive. And, just maybe, a bit deceptive. In the opening game of the NBA Finals, the Denver Nuggets' 104-93 win rarely felt that close. It was, aside from a too-late push by the MIami Heat, a stark set of performances. Dominating for Denver. Ugly for the Heat.

Buxton was lifted from Thursday's game against Cleveland after getting hit in the ribs by a pitch, Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com reports. Twins manager Rocco Baldelli said Buxton had been playing at less than 100 percent due to lingering knee problems, and now Buxton could be facing another injury, this one to his ribs. The team will take a look at him and provide an update on how serious his injury is, but Buxton should be considered day-to-day for the time being.

Slightly southeast of Denver on the Colorado Front Range, the West Bijou Creek meanders through a 7600 acres located on the K-T Boundary. According to the National Park Service the site "contains some of the most scientifically important evidence associated with the Cretaceous-Paleogene (K-Pg) boundary [formerly known as the Cretaceous-Tertiary (K-T) boundary]. The K-Pg boundary at the West Bijou Site is unique due to its palynological extinction level, fern-spore spike, iridium anomaly and shocked quartz, Cretaceous and Paleogene (Tertiary) vertebrate fossils, magnetostratigraphy, and radiometric dating. Bisecting the site, West Bijou Creek, maintains a natural hydrologic pattern, flowing through a mosaic of upland and riparian shortgrass prairie plant communities, supporting a diversity of common and rare plant and wildlife species. West Bijou Site provides an excellent example of a valuable geologic resource located within a natural shortgrass prairie ecosystem."

Jung went 3-for-5 with a double, a homer, two RBI and three runs scored in Tuesday's victory over the Tigers. Jung scored the opening run Tuesday after cracking a one-out double in the second inning. He'd later extend the Rangers' lead to 9-6 in the seventh, belting a two-run homer off Tyler Holton. The 25-year-old Jung extended his hit streak to 13 games -- he's gone 21-for-49 with four home runs in that span. He's now slashing .291/.338/.527 with 12 home runs, 37 RBI and 39 runs scored through 219 plate appearances this season.

Walker is slashing .342/.447/.579 with two home runs, one steal and a 25.5 percent strikeout rate over his last 10 games for Triple-A Memphis. On the year, he has been nine percent worse (91 wRC+) than the average International League hitter while working exclusively in right field since getting demoted from the big leagues April 26. The Cardinals are getting strong play on both sides of the ball from Lars Nootbaar, but none of the other big-league outfielders have taken a job and run with it. With Walker heating up at Triple-A, he has put himself in position for a promotion if the Cardinals think his defense will be satisfactory.

Mushinski was optioned to Triple-A Sugar Land on Thursday, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports. Mushinski has posted a 5.40 ERA over three relief appearances with the big club this season. He's clearing out to make room for Thursday's starter, Ronel Blanco.

Blanco was recalled from Triple-A Sugar Land on Thursday, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports. Blanco will make his first major-league start Thursday against the Angels. The 29-year-old has posted a 0.56 ERA and 21:13 K:BB over 16 innings covering two starts and two relief appearances at Sugar Land this season and a 4.50 ERA in nine relief outings with Houston. He would figure to be on a relatively limited pitch count Thursday.

Detroit, MI

Ibanez remains out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Rangers. Ibanez has been a fairly consistent part of the Detroit lineup since late April, but he appears to have fallen out of favor after going 3-for-48 at the plate over his last 15 games. Even with the Tigers moving two everyday players in Riley Greene (fibula) and Matt Vierling (back) to the injured list within the past two days, Ibanez will still find himself on the bench for the fourth time in six games.
