Mitch Garver Could Return Before All-Star Break

Minnesota Twins manager Rocco Baldelli said that catcher Mitch Garver (groin) is likely looking at a return just before or after the All-Star break after he met with a urologist last week.

Jackie Bradley Jr. Has Had Some Bad Luck

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Jackie Bradley Jr. came into Tuesday's game with a .159 batting average on the season, even after getting a couple of hits in Monday's win. Bradley has a .217 batting average on balls in play, which indicates that he's also run into some pretty bad luck in 2021. It's been especially disappointing […]

Jaydon Mickens, Justin Watson On The Bubble

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receivers Jaydon Mickens and Justin Watson have seen their stock fall this offseason.

And Mickens didn't exactly stand out in return duties last year. […]

Giovani Bernard Likely To Serve In Pass-Catching Role

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Giovani Bernard looked impressive in voluntary organized team activities and at Tom Brady's unofficial workouts, and he's most likely to serve as the team's third-down and pass-catching back while Ronald Jones II and Leonard Fournette battle for primary ball-carrying duties. Bernard has averaged 42 catches per season in his eight-year […]

The Kansas City Royals placed relief pitcher Wade Davis (forearm) on the 10-day injured list on Tuesday with a right forearm strain and called up reliever Richard Lovelady from the minors in a corresponding move.

The New York Mets designated right-hander Jerad Eickhoff for assignment on Tuesday and called up pitching prospect Thomas Szapucki in a corresponding move. Szapucki, the team's 10th-ranked prospect, will be making his major league debut when he gets into a game. Eickhoff's time in the big leagues came to an end when he allowed five […]

Tyler Naquin Remains Out Tuesday

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Tyler Naquin (wrist) remains out of the starting lineup on Tuesday against the San Diego Padres.

Kyle Muller To Remain In Rotation

Atlanta Braves manager Brian Snitker confirmed that left-hander Kyle Muller will remain in the rotation for another start after he struck out nine hitters in five shutout innings in a win over the Cincinnati Reds on Sunday.

Chicago White Sox first baseman Jose Abreu (knee) is back in the starting lineup on Tuesday and is hitting third against Minnesota Twins right-hander Kenta Maeda.

Stephen Strasburg Throwing Another Bullpen

Washington Nationals starting pitcher Stephen Strasburg (neck) is throwing another bullpen session on Tuesday, the second time he's done so since his latest trip to the injured list.

Christian Arroyo Set For Rehab Assignment

Boston Red Sox infielder Christian Arroyo (knee) is expected to begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Worcester this week and could play as soon as Wednesday. Arroyo landed on the 10-day injured list with a right knee contusion, but he might be ready for the team's West coast road trip later this week if he […]
