However, that seems like […]

Anthony Rendon Absent On Wednesday

Los Angeles Angels third baseman Anthony Rendon (shin) is absent from Wednesday's starting lineup against the San Diego Padres. This doesn't come as a surprise after Rendon exited early during Tuesday's game. The right-handed slugger fouled a ball off his shin, but luckily the X-rays came back negative. The Angels didn't put Rendon on the […]

Shohei Ohtani Will Play On Wednesday

Los Angeles Angels two-way superstar Shohei Ohtani (finger) is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the San Diego Padres.

Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte (back) is out of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the New York Mets.

Tommy Edman Scratched On Wednesday

St. Louis Cardinals infielder Tommy Edman has been scratched from Wednesday's starting lineup against the Miami Marlins. The organization has not given a reason for pulling Edman from the lineup.

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Michael Kopech (shoulder) is expected to make his return to the starting rotation after the All-Star break.

Alek Manoah Returning On Friday

Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Alek Manoah has been recalled to make the start against the Detroit Tigers on Friday. The 25-year-old was demoted in early June after posting a horrendous 6.36 ERA through 13 starts. He was roughed up in rookie-ball, but bounced back nicely during his start in Double-A. It appears the Blue […]

[…]

Anthony Edwards Gets Massive Extension

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards agreed to a five-year, $260 million max extension with the organization. The 21-year-old is one of the brightest young stars in the game, so it's not surprising to see the T-Wolves lock him up. Edwards averaged career-highs in points (24.6), rebounds (5.8), assists (4.4) last season. He'll be the team's […]

Mason Plumlee Returning To Clippers

The Los Angeles Clippers have agreed to a one-year deal with center Mason Plumlee on Monday. The 33-year-old has decided to re-sign with the organization on a one-year, $5 million deal.

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Sixto Sanchez (shoulder) has reportedly resumed his throwing program. The right-hander is throwing from 90-105 feet, according to Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald.

Baltimore Orioles infielder Jordan Westburg (hand) is out of the starting lineup for Monday's game against the New York Yankees. The 24-year-old was hit by a pitch on the left hand during Sunday's game. As a precaution, the O's will hold Westburg out of this game. It wouldn't be shocking to see Westburg sit a […]

Austin Hays Absent On Monday

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Austin Hays (wrist) is absent from Monday's starting lineup versus the New York Yankees. This isn't surprising considering Hays suffered a left hip contusion from Sunday's game. He suffered the injury when he collided with Reds infielder Donovan Solano during their last contest. It's not shocking to see the O's being extremely […]

Nick Madrigal Removed Early On Monday

Chicago Cubs infielder Nick Madrigal (hamstring) was forced to exit early during Monday's game against the Milwaukee Brewers.

Gregory Santos Escapes With The Save

Chicago White Sox relief pitcher Gregory Santos was called upon to hold a three-run lead against the Oakland Athletics on Sunday.

Tony Kemp smacked a one-out single, JJ Bleday added a two-out […]

Detroit Tigers shortstop Javier Baez is having a rough first half of the season. However, he was able to make some noise during Sunday's game against the Colorado Rockies.
