MLB Player News

Foscue was placed on the 10-day injured list Monday with a left oblique strain.

Foscue made his big-league debut just a few days earlier against Houston, so it's unclear as to when he suffered the injury. The Rangers selected Davis Wendzel's contract from Triple-A Round Rock in a corresponding move.

The Red Sox called up Gonzalez from Triple-A Worcester on Monday, Rob Bradford of WEEI.com reports.

In a corresponding move, the Red Sox optioned Bobby Dalbec to Triple-A Worcester. Gonzalez had a strong start to his minor-league season, slashing .321/.375/.821 with three home runs and 10 RBI over 32 plate appearances. He'll bring some infield depth and a right-handed bat for the Red Sox and should get starts against left-handed pitching. Gonzalez saw time at second base, shortstop and first base at Triple-A.

Edman (wrist) was cleared by a doctor Monday to begin baseball activities, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

It's certainly good news, although Edman will basically be re-starting the equivalent of a spring training ramp-up from square one, so it will be a while before he returns. That's assuming things go well with the ramp-up, of course, which was not the case previously. Victor Scott has been filling in for Edman in center field but is off to just a 3-for-36 start at the plate.

India (leg) has been scratched from Monday's lineup against the Brewers, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports.

India was initially set to start at DH and hit out of the leadoff spot, but he was scratched with a left leg contusion from being hit during batting practice. Bubba Thompson will enter the starting lineup at center field and bat ninth, while Will Benson shifts to DH.

Manager David Bell said India remains in the lineup for Monday's game against the Brewers despite suffering an unspecified injury during batting practice, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports.

India appeared to get struck by a ball while some teammates were taking batting practice, but it's apparently not a serious injury. There remains a chance the 27-year-old is scratched closer to first pitch, but for now he's still penciled in to bat leadoff as the designated hitter.

India suffered an apparent injury during batting practice ahead of Monday's game versus the Brewers, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

India was standing in foul territory while others were taking BP and it's possible he was struck by a ball before walking off the field with the trainer. According to Goldsmith, India returned to the field to take some BP himself, though it's unclear if that means he'll be available. He had been set to serve as the Reds' designated hitter and leadoff man Monday, but it's now possible he gets scratched.

Julien is absent from the lineup for Monday's game against the Dodgers.

The Dodgers are sending southpaw James Paxton to the hill, so the left-handed hitting Julien will begin this one on the bench. Kyle Farmer receives the start at second base.

Bae (hip) began a rehab assignment with Low-A Bradenton on Sunday.

Bae had a single, a double and an RBI in three plate appearances. The utility player is working his way back from a left hip flexor injury and should eventually move to a higher Pirates minor-league affiliate as he continues his rehab assignment. Bae should be back with the Pirates by mid-April.

Gorman went 2-for-4 with two home runs and three RBI in Sunday's loss to the Marlins.

Gorman was the only source of run support for the Cardinals in a game that got ugly for them very quick. The 24-year-old showed off his raw power, sending both home runs 400-plus feet to center field, awarding fantasy managers who patiently waited for his bat to get going after just two extra-base hits in his first 33 at-bats of the year. The 24-year-old slugger is hitting .222/.300/.444 with a concerning 42.5 strikeout rate early on.

Arraez went 4-for-5 with a triple and three runs scored in Sunday's win over the Cardinals.

Arraez's bat finally got going after he entered Sunday's action hitting just .194 through nine games. It was his 14th career 4-hit game though he is still in search of his first RBI on the season. Arraez has scored nine runs while batting atop the Marlins' order, which is currently tied for ninth best in baseball.
