Romy Gonzalez BOS 2B
Red Sox's Romy Gonzalez: Resuming rehab assignment Tuesday
29m agoGonzalez (shoulder/hip) will resume a rehab assignment Tuesday with Triple-A Worcester, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports.
Gonzalez has been out all season following left shoulder surgery, and he had to have his rehab assignment paused over the weekend due to a sore left hip flexor. He is feeling well enough to return to action Tuesday, and Gonzalez could rejoin Boston's active roster before the end of June.
-
Brenton Doyle COL CF
Rockies' Brenton Doyle: Ready for rehab games
33m agoDoyle (oblique) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Albuquerque on Tuesday, Kevin Henry of The Denver Gazette reports.
Doyle has missed the last month of action with an oblique injury but has progressed enough to play in rehab games. It's unlikely Doyle will be ready to return by this weekend when the Rockies have a brief three-game road trip, but he could be back next week then the club starts another homestand.
-
Jordan Beck COL LF
Rockies' Jordan Beck: Cleared for rehab assignment
41m agoBeck (hamstring) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Albuquerque on Tuesday, Kevin Henry of The Denver Gazette reports.
Beck has been shelved since mid-May with a left hamstring strain but is ready to test things out in a game setting. Since he's missed more than a month of action, Beck is likely to require a handful of rehab contests before returning to the Rockies' active roster.
-
Garrett Crochet BOS RP
Red Sox's Garrett Crochet: Not cleared to throw yet
1h agoCrochet (shoulder/lat) has not yet been cleared to resume a throwing program following a scheduled re-evaluation Monday, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports.
Red Sox interim manager Chad Tracy said that Crochet's left shoulder and lat are "improving," but not enough that he's ready to throw. Crochet landed on the injured list in late April with left shoulder inflammation and then encountered a setback in early June when he sustained a low-grade left lat strain. The southpaw has been throwing a plyometric ball, but a timetable for his return won't become clearer until he ramps up a throwing program.
-
Gabriel Moreno ARI C
Diamondbacks' Gabriel Moreno: Receiving night off
1h agoMoreno is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Cardinals.
Moreno will get a breather for the series opener in St. Louis after he went 1-for-3 with a walk while playing eight innings behind the dish in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Twins. Adrian Del Castillo will handle catching duties for Arizona on Monday.
-
Samuel Basallo BAL C
Orioles' Samuel Basallo: Absent from lineup
1h agoBasallo is not in the lineup for Monday's game against the Angels.
Basallo will get a well-earned breather after starting each of the previous 10 contests, including the last four at catcher. It will be Sam Huff doing the catching and batting ninth in Monday's series opener.
-

Diamondbacks' Gabriel Moreno: Receiving night off
1h agoMoreno is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Cardinals.
Moreno will get a breather for the series opener in St. Louis after he went 1-for-3 with a walk while playing eight innings behind the dish in Sunday's 4-2 loss to the Twins. Adrian Del Castillo will handle catching duties for Arizona on Monday.

Drew Romo CHW C
White Sox's Drew Romo: Set for reduction in playing time
2h agoRomo is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Guardians.
Though the White Sox kept him on the big-league roster and optioned Edgar Quero to Triple-A Charlotte to make room for Kyle Teel's (hamstring/knee) return from the 60-day injured list, Romo will be headed for a reduction in playing time while Teel settles back in as Chicago's clear No. 1 catcher. Romo produced an .857 OPS in his first month with the White Sox after receiving a promotion from Triple-A on April 25, but he's fallen off badly since the start of June, slashing .071/.100/.107 with a 29 percent strikeout rate in 31 plate appearances.
-
Liam Hicks MIA C
Marlins' Liam Hicks: Awaiting MRI results on back
2h agoHicks is awaiting MRI results on his injured lower back, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
Hicks was placed on the 10-day injured list Sunday due to a lower-back strain, and the Marlins will have a better idea as to proceed with his rehab after the MRI results are in. Manager Clayton McCullough said Monday that Hicks feels improved but is "still stiff." The club could have more on Hicks' status later Monday.
-
Christian Vazquez HOU C
Astros' Christian Vazquez: Back in No. 2 role
2h agoVazquez is out of the lineup for Monday's game in Toronto.
After serving as the Astros' primary option behind the plate for about six weeks, Vazquez has moved down to the No. 2 spot on the depth chart following Yainer Diaz's return from the injured list last Tuesday. In the Astros' ensuing six games, Diaz has made four starts to Vazquez's two.
-
Patrick Bailey CLE C
Guardians' Patrick Bailey: Exiting starting nine
3h agoBailey is not in the lineup for Monday's contest against the White Sox.
Bailey started all three games at catcher for the Guardians this past weekend in Houston, so he'll get a breather for the series opener versus the White Sox. Austin Hedges will be behind the dish.
-
Jacob Gonzalez CHW 1B
White Sox's Jacob Gonzalez: Exiting starting nine
2h agoGonzalez is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Guardians.
Gonzalez will head to the bench while the White Sox go with Miguel Vargas and Colson Montgomery as their starters in the corner infield Monday. Since being called up from Triple-A Charlotte on May 30, the left-handed-hitting Gonzalez has mostly been spared from matchups with left-handed pitching but has still struggled to a .167/.273/.229 slash line over 55 plate appearances. Gonzalez will likely be headed back to Charlotte once Munetaka Murakami (hamstring) is ready to return from the injured list.
-
Jared Young NYM 1B
Mets' Jared Young: Hitting bench with lefty starting
2h agoYoung is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Cubs.
Young will head to the bench along with fellow left-handed batters MJ Melendez and Brett Baty while the Cubs send southpaw Shota Imanaga to the bump for the series opener. With Young taking a seat, Mark Vientos will pick up a start at first base and will bat fifth.
-
Trey Mancini LAA 1B
Trey Mancini: Bound for free agency
3h agoMancini elected free agency Monday.
Rather than accepting an outright assignment to the Angels' Triple-A affiliate in Salt Lake after he cleared waivers, Mancini will try his luck on the open market. If the 34-year-old is unable to find work with an organization that can present him with a clearer path to the big leagues, Mancini could re-sign with the Angels on a minor-league deal. The Angels dropped Mancini from their 40-man roster last week after he appeared in five games for the big club and went 4-for-13 with four RBI and one run.
-
Tony Blanco PIT 1B
Pirates' Tony Blanco: Shelved at High-A
9h agoHigh-A Greensboro placed Blanco on its 7-day injured list Sunday due to an unspecified injury.
Blanco may be tending to a lower-body issue, as Anthony Murphy of Baseball America notes that the 21-year-old was lifted for a pinch hitter shortly after legging out a triple in Saturday's game. The first baseman is slashing .237/.319/.500 with 12 home runs and one stolen base over 210 plate appearances with Greensboro on the season.
-
Rowdy Tellez ATL 1B
Braves' Rowdy Tellez: Swats first Atlanta homer
10h agoTellez went 1-for-1 with a two-run home run in Sunday's loss to the Brewers.
The veteran slugger replaced Matt Olson at first base with the game out of hand late, and Tellez took Chad Patrick deep in the ninth inning in his only plate appearance. It was Tellez's first homer in five games since joining Atlanta's 26-man roster earlier this month, but he has yet to make a start for his new team while stuck behind Olson and Dominic Smith on the depth charts at first base and DH.
-
Ben Rice NYY 1B
Yankees' Ben Rice: Launches 24th long ball
18h agoRice went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk Sunday in a loss to Cincinnati.
Rice produced the lone New York run Sunday with a 375-foot solo homer in the third inning. The slugger has shown no signs of slowing down after a hot start to the season -- over his past seven games, he's batting .310 (9-for-29) with four homers and eight RBI. Rice is among the MLB leaders in several categories, including OPS (1.004, second place), homers (22. fourth place) and RBI (53, tied for eighth place).
-
Romy Gonzalez BOS 2B
Red Sox's Romy Gonzalez: Resuming rehab assignment Tuesday
29m agoGonzalez (shoulder/hip) will resume a rehab assignment Tuesday with Triple-A Worcester, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports.
Gonzalez has been out all season following left shoulder surgery, and he had to have his rehab assignment paused over the weekend due to a sore left hip flexor. He is feeling well enough to return to action Tuesday, and Gonzalez could rejoin Boston's active roster before the end of June.
-
Jackson Holliday BAL 2B
Orioles' Jackson Holliday: Held out again Monday
1h agoHolliday (groin) remains out of the lineup for Monday's contest versus the Angels.
Holliday will miss a second straight start as he deals with groin tightness. He is considered day-to-day for the time being. Jeremiah Jackson will again cover second base in Holliday's stead.
-
Alex Freeland LAD 2B
Dodgers' Alex Freeland: Sitting while Edman starts at 2B
1h agoFreeland is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Twins.
Freeland had started in 15 of the Dodgers' last 18 games, but he's likely to slip into more of a part-time role following the recent return of Tommy Edman, who returned from the 60-day injured list Tuesday. After starting in left field twice and at third base once over his first four games since being activated, Edman will cover Freeland's usual spot at the keystone Monday. Freeland hasn't helped his case for retaining steady playing time by producing a modest .218/.323/.309 slash line since being recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City on May 27.
-
Nick Madrigal LAA 2B
Angels' Nick Madrigal: Removed from 40-man roster
3h agoThe Angels designated Madrigal for assignment Monday.
With the Angels welcoming Jorge Soler (oblique) back from the 10-day injured list, Madrigal ended up being a casualty of the 40-man roster. Following his May 27 call-up from Triple-A Salt Lake, the 29-year-old infielder slashed .273/.385/.295 with zero home runs, one stolen base, seven runs and two RBI over 52 plate appearances. If Madrigal isn't traded or claimed off waivers, he'll have the option of electing free agency if he doesn't wish to stick around in the Angels organization as a member of the Triple-A roster.
-
Luis Urias TOR 2B
Blue Jays' Luis Urias: Added to roster
4h agoThe Blue Jays selected Urias' contract from Triple-A Buffalo on Monday.
Urias was acquired via trade from the Diamondbacks over the weekend after putting up a .939 OPS in 27 games at Triple-A Reno. The 29-year-old will operate as a reserve infielder for the Blue Jays.
-
Edwin Arroyo CIN 2B
Reds' Edwin Arroyo: On bench Monday
5h agoArroyo is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Brewers.
The Reds will go with Spencer Steer and Matt McLain as their starters in the middle infield while Arroyo retreats to the bench for the series opener. Since being promoted from Triple-A Louisville on June 1, Arroyo has struggled to produce in a near-everyday role, slashing .240/.304/.280 with zero home runs or stolen bases across 56 plate appearances. With Elly De La Cruz (hamstring) expected to return from the 10-day injured list Tuesday, Arroyo could wind up heading back to Louisville in a corresponding move.
-
Brett Baty NYM 3B
Mets' Brett Baty: On bench versus lefty
2h agoBaty is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Cubs.
Baty will head to the bench along with fellow left-handed batters MJ Melendez and Jared Young while the Cubs send southpaw Shota Imanaga to the bump for the series opener. With Baty taking a seat, Bo Bichette will shift over to third base and Zack Short will enter the lineup at shortstop.
-
Addison Barger TOR 3B
Blue Jays' Addison Barger: Aiming to start rehab Thursday
3h agoBarger (elbow) is targeting Thursday for the beginning of his rehab assignment, Mitch Bannon of The Athletic reports.
Barger is expected to require about a week's worth of rehab games before being reinstated to the Blue Jays' active roster, setting him up to return in early July if all goes well. The 26-year-old has been shelved since mid-May with right elbow inflammation, and he's played only nine games for Toronto this season because of injuries.
-
Ryan McMahon NYY 3B
Yankees' Ryan McMahon: Idle against southpaw
4h agoMcMahon is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Tigers.
The left-handed-hitting McMahon will head to the bench for the second time in three games while the Yankees face off against another lefty (Framber Valdez) in the series opener. Platoon mate Amed Rosario will replace McMahon at third base and will bat leadoff.
-
Zack Gelof ATH 3B
Athletics' Zack Gelof: Extends hitting streak to 24 games
8h agoGelof went 2-for-5 with a double and three runs scored in Sunday's 9-7 loss to the Angels.
After being held out of the lineup Saturday, Gelof returned Sunday and came around to score a season-high three times in the high-scoring affair. The infielder wasted little time extending his hitting streak to 24 games, lacing a single in the first inning. Per Theo DeRosa of MLB.com, the 26-year-old became just the fourth Athletics player since 1961 to record a hitting streak of at least 24 games. Since the streak began May 25, Gelof is slashing .351/.402/.585 with five homers, seven doubles, 12 RBI, 19 runs and two stolen bases.
-
Caleb Durbin BOS 3B
Red Sox's Caleb Durbin: Sorry to leave Seattle
8h agoDurbin went 2-for-3 with a double in Sunday's 3-1 loss to the Mariners.
Durbin posted multiple hits in all three road games and left Seattle with seven hits over 11 at-bats. His work also included two stolen bases, two doubles, a home run and two RBI. What has been a trying first season in Boston turned over the last three weeks. Durbin is batting .319 (23-for-72) with seven doubles, one triple, four home runs, 13 RBI, three steals and 11 runs over his last 20 games.
-
Blaze Alexander BAL 3B
Orioles' Blaze Alexander: Homers in three-hit effort
20h agoAlexander went 3-for-5 with a two-run homer, a double and an additional run scored in Sunday's 12-1 victory over the Dodgers.
Alexander excelled in the blowout win, recording his seventh three-hit performance of the campaign, highlighted by a two-run homer in the eighth inning. The 27-year-old has been on fire in June, slashing .422/.460/.689 with two homers, six doubles, nine RBI, seven runs and two stolen bases across 16 appearances this month while solidifying himself as the Orioles' top option at the hot corner. Overall, Alexander is hitting .312/.362/.447 with three homers, 12 doubles, a triple, 23 RBI, 22 runs and eight stolen bases across 66 contests in 2026.
-
Tristan Gray MIN SS
Twins' Tristan Gray: Losing playing time to Kreidler
1h agoGray is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Dodgers.
On the bench for a third straight game against a right-handed starting pitcher, Gray appears to have lost hold of his strong-side platoon role at shortstop. The Twins will once again turn shortstop over to the hot-hitting Ryan Kreidler, who has earned himself more opportunities by producing an .880 OPS since Minnesota recalled him from Triple-A St. Paul on May 14.
-
Corey Seager TEX SS
Rangers' Corey Seager: Set for live BP on Tuesday
3h agoManager Skip Schumaker said that Seager (concussion) is scheduled to take live batting practice before the Rangers evaluate him for a return from the 7-day injured list, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Seager is still dealing with mild concussion symptoms stemming from an on-field collision June 11 in Kansas City, but he's resumed running and fielding and will take another positive forward in his recovery when he resumes facing live pitching. He'll be reassessed following Tuesday's workout, and if his concussion symptoms have dissipated by then, Seager could bypass a rehab assignment and return from the 7-day injured list later in the week. Once Seager is deemed ready to handle an everyday role at shortstop, Ezequiel Duran will likely slide over to second base and displace Nicky Lopez as the primary option at that position.
-
Francisco Lindor NYM SS
Mets' Francisco Lindor: Could return from IL on Wednesday
3h agoMets manager Carlos Mendoza said that Lindor (calf) could return from the 10-day injured list as soon as Wednesday, Jorge Castillo of ESPN.com reports.
Lindor is slated to make the third appearance of his rehab assignment Tuesday with Triple-A Syracuse, and if he receives a positive evaluation when he's re-examined following that game, the Mets will likely activate the veteran shortstop. Bo Bichette has been serving as the Mets' primary option at shortstop since a left calf strain forced Lindor to the IL on April 23, but Bichette will shift back to third base on a full-time basis once the five-time All-Star is back in the fold.
-
Bobby Witt KC SS
Royals' Bobby Witt: Works out, still hopes to avoid IL
3h agoRoyals manager Matt Quatraro said that Witt (knee) hit in the batting cage, fielded grounders and ran the bases pregame prior to Monday's contest against the Rays, Brian Murphy of MLB.com reports.
Quatraro referred to Witt's workout as "very encouraging," adding that he's hopeful the star shortstop will be available to play "in the next couple of days." Witt is missing a third straight start Monday against the Rays, but optimism remains that he will be able to avoid a stint on the 10-day injured list.
-
Elly De La Cruz CIN SS
Reds' Elly De La Cruz: Activation coming Tuesday
4h agoReds manager Terry Francona confirmed that De La Cruz (hamstring) will be reinstated from the 10-day injured list prior to Tuesday's game against the Brewers, Charlie Goldsmith of Fox 19 Now Cincinnati reports.
After playing three rehab games at Triple-A Louisville over the weekend while going 2-for-8 with a home run and a walk, De La Cruz will get a chance to rest in Monday's opener versus Milwaukee before checking back into the lineup for the second game of the series. Once activated, De La Cruz should settle back into an everyday role at shortstop, pushing Matt McLain back to second base in the process. De La Cruz will wind up missing just over three weeks due to a right hamstring strain, which he sustained while running the bases in a May 31 game against Atlanta.
-
Cooper Pratt MIL SS
Brewers' Cooper Pratt: Hitting bench Monday
4h agoPratt is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Reds.
Milwaukee will hand the 21-year-old his first day off since he was promoted from Triple-A Nashville last Tuesday. Joey Ortiz will step in at shortstop in place of Pratt, who went 7-for-19 (.368 average) with a 2:4 BB:K, three stolen bases, two runs and two RBI over his first six big-league starts.
-
Brenton Doyle COL CF
Rockies' Brenton Doyle: Ready for rehab games
33m agoDoyle (oblique) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Albuquerque on Tuesday, Kevin Henry of The Denver Gazette reports.
Doyle has missed the last month of action with an oblique injury but has progressed enough to play in rehab games. It's unlikely Doyle will be ready to return by this weekend when the Rockies have a brief three-game road trip, but he could be back next week then the club starts another homestand.
-
Jordan Beck COL LF
Rockies' Jordan Beck: Cleared for rehab assignment
41m agoBeck (hamstring) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Albuquerque on Tuesday, Kevin Henry of The Denver Gazette reports.
Beck has been shelved since mid-May with a left hamstring strain but is ready to test things out in a game setting. Since he's missed more than a month of action, Beck is likely to require a handful of rehab contests before returning to the Rockies' active roster.
-
Chase DeLauter CLE RF
Guardians' Chase DeLauter: Aiming to return on homestand
2h agoGuardians manager Stephen Vogt said Monday that the team hopes DeLauter (rib) will be ready to return during its June 26-July 5 homestand, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.
Working his way back from a small fracture in his right rib cage, DeLauter has resumed hitting, running and throwing. Vogt does not have a specific target date for DeLauter's activation from the 10-day injured list, but it seems it could happen as soon as this weekend.
-
Steven Kwan CLE CF
Guardians' Steven Kwan: Held out of lineup vs. lefty
2h agoKwan is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the White Sox.
Southpaw Anthony Kay is on the bump for the White Sox, so Kwan will retreat to the bench along with fellow left-handed batters Daniel Schneemann and Kahlil Watson. Kwan is batting a career-worst .206 on the season and has been especially brutal against left-handed pitching, slashing .171/.289/.211 over 90 plate appearances.
-
Kahlil Watson CLE RF
Guardians' Kahlil Watson: Hitting bench against lefty
2h agoWatson is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the White Sox.
Southpaw Anthony Kay is on the bump for the White Sox, so Watson will retreat to the bench along with fellow left-handed batters Daniel Schneemann and Steven Kwan. Since being called up from Triple-A Columbus last Wednesday, Watson has gone 0-for-12 with eight strikeouts while drawing starts in four of six games.
-
Daniel Schneemann CLE CF
Guardians' Daniel Schneemann: Idle against southpaw
2h agoSchneemann is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the White Sox.
Southpaw Anthony Kay is on the bump for the White Sox, so Schneemann will retreat to the bench along with fellow left-handed batters Kahlil Watson and Steven Kwan. Schneemann is coming off a rough weekend series in Houston, where he went 0-for-12 with seven strikeouts to bring his season average down to .213.
-
Kodai Senga NYM SP
Mets' Kodai Senga: Start postponed following rainout
1h agoSenga will no longer start Monday against the Cubs after the game was postponed due to inclement weather, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune reports.
The game will be made up as part of a split doubleheader Wednesday. It's not yet clear whether the Mets will start Senga on Tuesday or push his next outing back to another day.
-
Shota Imanaga CHC SP
Cubs' Shota Imanaga: Cubs-Mets game postponed
1h agoImanaga will not start as scheduled Monday versus the Mets after the game was postponed due to inclement weather, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune reports.
The game will be made up as part of a doubleheader Wednesday. It's the second straight day Imanaga has had a start postponed. He will now take the ball during one of the doubleheader games Wednesday, as the Cubs will stick with Edward Cabrera as their scheduled starter Tuesday, per Vinnie Duber of the Chicago Sun-Times.
-
Justin Steele CHC SP
Cubs' Justin Steele: Resumes throwing program
1h agoSteele (elbow) resumed a throwing program Monday, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.
Steele underwent UCL revision surgery last May and then had a setback in late April when he was diagnosed with a flexor strain. The left-hander will be ramped back up slowly, and while the Cubs hope Steele can contribute at some point after the All-Star break, there is no target date for his return.
-
Eric Lauer LAD SP
Dodgers' Eric Lauer: Set for bulk-relief role Monday
1h agoLauer is expected to work in bulk relief behind opening pitcher Will Klein in Monday's game against the Twins, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
As a starter this season between stops with Toronto and Los Angeles, Lauer has turned in a 5.14 ERA and 13:7 K:BB in 21 innings while facing hitters the first time through the order, so the Dodgers will look to generate better results from the lefty by sparing him from a matchup with the top of the Minnesota lineup to begin the game. Klein is expected to cover an inning or two before giving way to Lauer, who should have a better chance at coming away with a win while working in bulk relief.
-
Matthew Boyd CHC SP
Cubs' Matthew Boyd: Rejoining rotation this week
2h agoCubs manager Craig Counsell said Monday that Boyd's (shoulder/knee) next start will be in the majors, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune reports.
As long as inclement weather doesn't force the Cubs to alter their rotation, Boyd appears poised to start Thursday's game on the road against the Mets. The veteran left-hander has been shelved since early May, first due to meniscus surgery and later because of shoulder soreness. He's collected a 6.00 ERA and 31:6 K:BB over 24 innings covering five starts for the Cubs this season.
-
Eury Perez MIA SP
Marlins' Eury Perez: Could rejoin rotation Wednesday
2h agoMarlins manager Clayton McCullough said Monday that Perez (gracilis) "felt great" during his pitch design session and could rejoin the rotation Wednesday versus the Rangers, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
As long as Perez recovers well from the session, he should be cleared to pitch Wednesday following a four-week absence due to a right gracilis muscle strain. Perez threw only 51 pitches in what is poised to be his lone rehab start, so he will not be prepared for a full workload against the Rangers.
-
Garrett Crochet BOS RP
Red Sox's Garrett Crochet: Not cleared to throw yet
1h agoCrochet (shoulder/lat) has not yet been cleared to resume a throwing program following a scheduled re-evaluation Monday, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports.
Red Sox interim manager Chad Tracy said that Crochet's left shoulder and lat are "improving," but not enough that he's ready to throw. Crochet landed on the injured list in late April with left shoulder inflammation and then encountered a setback in early June when he sustained a low-grade left lat strain. The southpaw has been throwing a plyometric ball, but a timetable for his return won't become clearer until he ramps up a throwing program.
-
Will Klein LAD RP
Dodgers' Will Klein: Working as opener Monday
2h agoKlein will serve as the Dodgers' opening pitcher in Monday's game in Minnesota, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
He'll draw his second start of the season, but Klein is likely to be limited to an inning or two before left-hander Eric Lauer steps in to work in bulk relief. The 26-year-old righty has emerged as a key high-leverage arm out of the bullpen for the Dodgers this season, notching two wins, one save and 10 holds while pitching to a 2.37 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 32:12 K:BB in 30.1 innings.
-
Felix Bautista BAL RP
Orioles' Felix Bautista: Ready for mound work
2h agoBautista (shoulder) will throw a bullpen session Tuesday, Andy Kostka of TheBanner.com reports.
It will be the first time Bautista has throwing off the mound since he underwent right shoulder surgery last August to repair a torn labrum and torn rotator cuff. The Orioles have not ruled out the possibility of Bautista rejoining the bullpen before the end of the season.
-
Emilio Pagan CIN RP
Reds' Emilio Pagan: Starting rehab assignment Thursday
2h agoPagan (hamstring) will begin a rehab assignment Thursday, Charlie Goldsmith of Fox 19 Now Cincinnati reports.
The Reds haven't disclosed which minor-league affiliate Pagan will join, but Goldsmith relays that the reliever's rehab assignment is expected to be brief. Pagan has been sidelined since early May with a Grade 2 left hamstring strain. Tony Santillan has pitched well lately as the Reds' closer, but Pagan should eventually reclaim his old gig once he's activated from the 15-day injured list.
-
Logan VanWey HOU RP
Astros' Logan VanWey: Rejoins big-league bullpen
4h agoThe Astros recalled VanWey from Triple-A Sugar Land on Monday.
VanWey has retired nine of 10 batters faced in the big leagues this season, striking out five over three scoreless innings. He'll handle a low-leverage role out of the bullpen while he's up with Houston.
-
Bryan Abreu HOU RP
Astros' Bryan Abreu: Placed on restricted list
4h agoThe Astros placed Abreu on the restricted list Monday.
Manager Joe Espada said Monday that Abreu is dealing with a personal matter, per Mitch Bannon of The Athletic reports. It's unclear whether the reliever could rejoin the team before the end of its series in Toronto, or if it's likelier Abreu meets the Astros later this week in Detroit. Logan VanWey was promoted from Triple-A Sugar Land to replace Abreu on the active roster and in the bullpen.
-
Miguel Andujar SD DH
Padres' Miguel Andujar: Out of lineup again Monday
2h agoAndujar is absent from the lineup for Monday's game against Atlanta.
Andujar has not started either of the Padres' two games since he was activated from the 10-day injured list Sunday. The Padres have faced right-handers in both contests, so Andujar could be looking at a short-side platoon role for the time being. Will Wagner started at designated hitter Sunday, and Gavin Sheets is slotting in at DH on Monday.
-
Jorge Soler LAA DH
Angels' Jorge Soler: Comes back from IL
3h agoThe Angels reinstated Soler (oblique) from the 10-day injured list Monday. He'll start at designated hitter and bat cleanup in the Angels' series opener versus the Orioles.
Soler had been on the shelf since June 6 due to a left oblique strain, and after he checked out well after taking on-field batting practice in recent days, the Angels elected to bring him back from the IL without having him complete a rehab assignment beforehand. Because he returned a bit earlier than anticipated, Soler could be in line for a maintenance day or two during the Angels' upcoming six-game week, but he should settle back into a near-everyday role at DH.
-
Sterlin Thompson COL DH
Rockies' Sterlin Thompson: Optioned to Triple-A
3h agoThe Rockies optioned Thompson to Triple-A Albuquerque on Monday.
With Mickey Moniak (ankle) back from the injured list, Thompson's playing time would have taken a hit. He'll instead return to Albuquerque where he will receive regular reps. Thompson has put up a .688 OPS with two home runs and a 5:21 BB:K across his first 27 big-league games.
-
Ivan Herrera STL DH
Cardinals' Ivan Herrera: Slaps 10th home run
