Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Max Kepler (shin) was forced to make an early exit from Wednesday's game against the San Francisco Giants.

Jacob Wilson Remains Sidelined on Wednesday
Athletics shortstop Jacob Wilson (hand) will take a seat ahead of Wednesday's game against the Atlanta Braves. This doesn't come as a shock after Wilson was hit in the left hand by a pitch during Tuesday's game. It doesn't sound like Wilson suffered any serious injuries, but he'll likely undergo more testing. For now, fantasy […]
