The Orioles recalled Povich from Triple-A Norfolk on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Povich started 20 of the 22 games in which he appeared for the Orioles last season and posted a 5.21 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 118:43 K:BB over 112.1 total innings. He's made one start with Norfolk this year, allowing five earned runs while striking out eight batters and walking two over five frames March 31. With Zach Eflin (elbow) landing on the IL on Wednesday, Povich seems primed to claim a spot in the rotation, potentially making his season debut Monday versus the White Sox.

Tucker is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Nationals, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

It's a scheduled day off for Tucker, who has a double, a homer, two steals, five RBI and eight runs with a .281/.361/.406 slash line while starting the Dodgers' first eight games of the campaign. Alex Call is instead receiving a start in right field Sunday for Los Angeles.

Messick will pitch the second game of Sunday's doubleheader against the Cubs, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Guardians and Cubs were rained out Saturday, forcing the two teams to double up Sunday. Saturday's scheduled starter, Slade Cecconi, will work the first game of the twin bill.

Baltimore placed Hiraldo on the 15-day injured list Sunday, retroactive to April 2, due to right shoulder inflammation, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hiraldo last pitched Tuesday, when he gave up three runs on two hits and a walk over one inning against Texas. He's since been diagnosed with inflammation in his pitching shoulder. Lefty hurler Cade Povich was recalled in a corresponding move.

Valera (calf) is building up to physically handle playing multiple days per week, MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Valera made his third appearance for Triple-A Columbus on Saturday, playing on back-to-back days for the first time on his rehab stint. That makes three games over four days for the outfielder. Valera is 4-for-13 (.308) with a double, a home run, two walks and three RBI since beginning the assignment, and he appears close to making his season debut for Cleveland.

Montgomery isn't in the White Sox's starting lineup Sunday versus Toronto.

EDGE Analysis

Montgomery started each of Chicago's first eight games this season, posting a .207/.303/.414 slash line with two home runs, six RBI and a stolen base. Of his starts, six came at shortstop and two at third base. Miguel Vargas is at the hot corner for the White Sox on Sunday, while Tanner Murray -- who was called up prior to the contest -- will be making his major-league debut at shortstop against southpaw Eric Lauer.

Smith started at second base and went 0-for-3 with a walk in Saturday's 2-0 loss to Cincinnati.

EDGE Analysis

Smith is finally getting a stable position to play after serving as a super-utility player the last few seasons with Texas. Unfortunately, his impressive spring training (1.127 OPS, four HR) has not yet carried over into the regular season. Smith is 3-for-24 (.125) with one RBI and one steal over seven starts.

The Cubs recalled Roberts from Triple-A Iowa to serve as the 27th man for Sunday's doubleheader against the Guardians, Jared Wyllys of AllCHGO.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The right-hander failed to make Chicago's Opening Day roster, but he will receive a look in the majors during Sunday's twin bill. Roberts allowed six earned runs with a 6:2 K:BB over 10 big-league appearances last regular season.

Smith went 1-for-1 with a solo home run in Saturday's 11-0 win over the A's.

EDGE Analysis

Despite starting the game on the bench for the first time this season, Smith put the finishing touches on Houston's blowout victory, launching his second homer of the year off Luis Medina in the eighth after entering the game as a defensive replacement the inning prior. The 23-year-old Smith has been swinging the bat well, logging at least one hit in his last five games. He's gone 6-for-15 with three extra-base hits in that span.

The Twins recalled Acton from Triple-A St. Paul on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Minnesota acquired Acton in a trade with Miami on Thursday, and the right-hander will quickly get a chance to show the Twins what he can do. Acton worked just one MLB game last year while with the Rays, walking two batters in a hitless and scoreless inning, and he posted a 4:1 K:BB over two outings spanning 2.1 frames this season in the minors before being called up. In a corresponding roster move. Zak Kent was optioned to St. Paul.
