Caleb Kilian Recalled, Starting Saturday

Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Caleb Kilian has been recalled from Triple-A to start against the Miami Marlins on Saturday, according to manager David Ross.

Tommy Edman Sitting On Friday

St. Louis Cardinals second baseman Tommy Edman is absent from the starting lineup against the Los Angeles Dodgers on Friday. The 27-year-old will now sit out two of the last three games for rest purposes. The return of Paul DeJong has cut into the playing time of Edman. On Friday, DeJong will cover shortstop and […]

German Marquez Could Require Surgery

Colorado Rockies starting pitcher German Marquez (triceps) could require season-ending surgery. The right-hander told reporters on Friday that he might need to get Tommy John surgery.

Normally, players are optimistic in these situations, so to hear Marquez say he might need season-ending surgery isn't […]

Josh Rojas Absent On Friday

Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Josh Rojas is absent from Friday's starting lineup against the Colorado Rockies. It appears the left-handed slugger is going to get a routine rest day on Friday.
