Scott Kingery Likely to Stay in the Outfield

Philadelphia Phillies infielder/outfielder Scott Kingery has seen a good amount of time in the outfield lately, but that's not likely going to stop anytime soon.

Detroit Tigers first baseman Miguel Cabrera (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the New York Mets.

Chris Paddack Scratched on Sunday

San Diego Padres starting pitcher Chris Paddack (neck) has been scratched from his scheduled start versus the Toronto Blue Jays on Sunday.

Mitch Keller Recalled, Starting Monday

Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher Mitch Keller has been recalled from Triple-A and will make his major league debut on Monday versus the Cincinnati Reds.
