May 6, 2025; Tampa, Florida, USA; Tampa Bay Rays designated hitter Yandy Diaz (2) runs the bases after hitting a two run home run against the Philadelphia Phillies in the fourth inning at George M. Steinbrenner Field. Mandatory Credit: Nathan Ray Seebeck-Imagn Images Designated hitter Yandy Diaz was placed on the restricted list as the Tampa Bay Rays opened a three-game series in Toronto on Tuesday because of what manager Kevin Cash termed a “passport issue.”
Diaz will be available when the Rays visit Miami on Friday, Cash said, noting second baseman Brandon Lowe was the pick to fill in at designated hitter on Tuesday night.
The Rays recalled infielder Coco Montes from Triple-A Durham to take Diaz’s spot on the active roster.
“Certainly disappointed that he’s not here because he’s such a big part of our team and offense, but look forward to getting him back in Miami,” Cash said Tuesday before the opener against the Blue Jays.
Diaz is batting .238 with six home runs and 20 RBIs in 40 games this season. He was the American League batting champion (.330) in 2023.
When Diaz jumps back into the lineup on Friday, the Rays are also expecting to get right fielder Josh Lowe back from an oblique injury. Lowe hasn’t played since he was injured Opening Day but is only a couple days from being ready to return, Cash said.

Will Tom Willander be the Canucks’ next star? Here’s what to expect
After an unusually drawn-out negotiation, the Vancouver Canucks finally have their guy.Tom Willander, drafted No. 11 in 2023, has signed an entry-level contract and will turn pro in 2025-26. During the last several weeks, The Athletic closely watched and evaluated many of his games with Boston University in the NCAA.AdvertisementHere’s what we learned about Willander’s style of play, his long-term ceiling and what the club should ultimately expect from their prized defensive prospect.Willander’s physicality and shutdown gameWillander isn’t going to blow you away with dynamic offensive chops or highlight-reel plays. A casual hockey fan might watch some of BU’s games and not even notice Willander as a standout player, if they aren’t paying particularly close attention to him.What Willander perhaps lacks in flashy skill, he makes up for with rock-solid defensive play and a remarkably polished, efficient style of play.

Taking stock of the AL Central: Tigers, Royals, Guardians and Twins all look like contenders in 2025
It was about this time last year that we realized that after years of the American League Central being arguably the worst division in baseball, it had three teams that looked like they could compete. The Detroit Tigers, Kansas City Royals and Cleveland Guardians were all still in the process of discovering who they were, but each had strengths they built on en route to the 2024 postseason, in which all three won at least one series.One year later, not only are those three squads all playing like they’re ready to get back to the playoffs, but they’re also joined by another division counterpart in the scorching-hot Minnesota Twins, who had won nine straight entering the second game of Wednesday’s doubleheader vs. Baltimore. What’s more, the Central appears to be the home of the best team in the American League. […]
Rockies are worst team in MLB history through 42 games, and it can get worse
<!--> With a loss on Tuesday night, the Rockies’ record now stands at 7-35. Reaching that 35th defeat after 42 games puts the Rockies in historic territory, as they’re the fastest-ever to 35 losses in a season. The previous quickest to get there was the 1904 Washington Senators, who lost their 35th 45 games in, after they had already won their eighth contest of an excruciatingly long season.If the Rockies don’t turn things around in a hurry, you’re going to be hearing a lot about the 1904 Senators for the next couple of months. That’s because the Senators, with a brief interruption, are one of the standard-bearers for "worst record through X" games, starting with the 43rd of the season up to the 91st, at which point a different team well over a century old becomes the stick against which […]
Dessers hits half-century as Rangers beat Dundee United
Cyriel Dessers scored a landmark 50th Rangers goal as the Light Blues beat Dundee United 3-1 in their final home Premiership game of the season.Amid thousands of empty Ibrox seats, defender Sam Cleall-Harding headed the Taysiders in front after 21 minutes before Dessers equalised with a header five minutes later. Dessers slotted in a penalty in the 73rd minute for his 28th goal of the season, taking his tally to the half-century since signing for Rangers from Cremonese two seasons ago, before midfielder Nicolas Raskin soon added a third.The defeat left United still in fifth spot and looking to clinch a European spot in their last game at home to fourth-placed Aberdeen on Saturday.It could have also been the final home match for Barry Ferguson, the former Rangers captain who took over as boss in February until the end of […]
