Houston Astros outfielder Michael Brantley (shoulder) was able to run the bases prior to Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Angels.

Houston Astros second baseman Jose Altuve (oblique) will travel with the team for their upcoming road trip to Colorado. The 33-year-old was seen running the bases prior to Sunday's game.

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Trevor Rogers (lat/biceps) continues to slowly work his way back onto the mound.

Andruw Monasterio will cover third […]

Tommy Pham To Sit Out On Saturday

New York Mets outfielder Tommy Pham is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. The 35-year-old slugger has been battling a strained groin, so possibly this is the Mets easing him back into action.

He's currently headed in the right direction, but it's uncertain […]

Jake Fraley Moves Up In Batting Order

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Jake Fraley will move up in the batting order for Friday's game against the Milwaukee Brewers. Normally, Fraley bats fifth in the order versus right-handed starters.
