Die hard White Sox and Angels fan. I joined the Rotoballer family in January 2018, and I've been writing about baseball in one way or another since 2014. I spent the 2016 season as the beat writer covering the Ogden Raptors for the local newspaper, and from 2018-2020 I was the social media manager and team photographer for the Bristol Pirates (RIP Appalachian League).

Bryan Reynolds Falls Double Short Of Cycle

Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Bryan Reynolds just missed out on hitting for the cycle on Saturday, finishing 3-for-4 with a triple, a home run, three RBI and a run scored in an 11-3 loss to the Reds. He has been tearing it up at the plate over his last 15 games, slashing .321/.390/.604 with two homers, […]


Hoy Park Extends Hitting Streak To Six Games

Pittsburgh Pirates infielder Hoy Park extended his hitting streak to six games on Saturday, finishing 1-for-4 at the plate in an 11-3 loss to the Reds. Ever since being acquired from the Yankees prior to the deadline, he's been a solid middle infield option in deeper formats as he's slashing .381/.435/.571 with three RBI and […]


Taylor Widener Strikes Out Seven In Solid Outing

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Taylor Widener put up a solid outing against the Padres on Saturday, allowing two runs on four hits and two walks while striking out seven over five innings of work in a 6-2 loss. It was the first time since April that he pitched five full innings, as he had gone […]


Christian Walker Homers In Loss Saturday

Arizona Diamondbacks first baseman Christian Walker went 1-for-3 with a home run and two RBI in a 6-2 loss to the Padres on Saturday. That was Walker's fifth homer of the year as he has had a disappointing performance at the plate so far, slashing .236/.293/.355 with 29 RBI and 33 runs scored over 71 […]


Kole Calhoun Stays Hot At Plate In Loss

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Kole Calhoun went 2-for-4 with a run scored in a 6-2 loss to the Padres on Saturday. He now has a seven-game hitting streak going, as he's slashing .345/.406/.483 with one home run, two RBI and four runs scored over that span. He's been limited to 33 games this season due to […]


Jonathan Schoop Signs Two-Year Extension With Detroit

Detroit Tigers second baseman Jonathan Schoop has agreed to a two-year contract extension worth $15 million, according to Jason Beck of MLB.com. Schoop has been one of the more productive hitters for the Tigers since joining the team in 2020, as he is slashing .286/.331/.470 with 26 home runs, 87 RBI and 86 runs scored […]


Mookie Betts Will Have Planned Day Off Sunday

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Mookie Betts will have a planned day off on Sunday, according to Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic. The Dodgers are wanting to take things easy with their star outfielder who is continuing to deal with a hip injury. He's been heating up at the plate recently, as he's now slashing .277/.379/.524 […]


Andres Gimenez Recalled From Triple-A

Cleveland Indians shortstop Andres Gimenez has been recalled from Triple-A Columbus, according to Ashley Bastock of the Beacon Journal. To make room for him on the roster, the Indians optioned relief pitcher J.C. Mejia to Triple-A.

Lucas Sims Likely To Be Activated From IL Sunday

Cincinnati Reds manager David Bell said that there's a "good chance" that relief pitcher Lucas Sims (elbow) is activated from the injured list on Sunday, according to Bobby Nightengale of the Cincinnati Enquirer.

Taylor Rogers To Opt For Rehab On Finger Injury

Minnesota Twins relief pitcher Taylor Rogers (finger) has opted to forego surgery and will instead go with rest and recovery for his strained middle finger, according to Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com.

Byron Buxton Could Be Nearing Rehab Assignment

Minnesota Twins outfielder Byron Buxton (hand) will join the Twins on the field for "reasonably full workouts" when they return from their current road trip, according to Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com.

Travis d'Arnaud Likely To Be Activated Tuesday

Atlanta Braves catcher Travis d'Arnaud (thumb) will play one more game with Triple-A Gwinnett on Sunday and will then likely be activated from the injured list on Tuesday, according to Mark Bowman of MLB.com. d'Arnaud suffered a torn ligament in his thumb back in early May, and at one point it was believed to be […]


James Kaprielian Likely To Start On Sunday

Oakland Athletics starting pitcher James Kaprielian (shoulder) is likely to come off the injured list and start Sunday's finale with the Rangers, according to Martin Gallegos of MLB.com.

Tim Mayza Placed On 10-Day IL Saturday

Toronto Blue Jays relief pitcher Tim Mayza (elbow) was placed on the 10-day injured list on Saturday with left elbow inflammation, according to Kaitlyn McGrath of The Athletic.

Collin McHugh Activated From Injured List

Tampa Bay Rays relief pitcher Collin McHugh (arm) was activated from the 10-day injured list on Saturday, according to Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times.

Tejay Antone Begins Rehab Assignment At Triple-A

Cincinnati Reds relief pitcher Tejay Antone (forearm) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Louisville on Saturday, according to Mark Sheldon of MLB.com.

Chase Anderson Placed On 10-Day IL Saturday

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Chase Anderson (triceps) was placed on the 10-day injured list on Saturday with a triceps issue, according to Matt Gelb of The Athletic. There's no word on what the injury is specifically or how long it could keep him sidelined, but Gelb reports that the team is likely to skip his […]


Jonathan Villar Homers In Friday Night Loss

New York Mets third baseman Jonathan Villar went 1-for-4 with a home run in a 4-2 loss to the Phillies on Friday. It was his 11th homer of the season, as he's now slashing .237/.316/.411 with eight steals, 25 RBI and 38 runs scored over 90 games. This was a nice performance from Villar, who […]


Kyle Lewis Doing Baseball Activities, Return Still Unknown

Seattle Mariners outfielder Kyle Lewis (knee) is doing baseball activities, but there is still no timetable for his return to action, according to Jen Mueller of Root Sports Northwest. Lewis has been out since June after undergoing surgery to repair a partially torn meniscus, and at this point it's looking like he won't be back […]

Roberto Perez Placed On 10-Day IL Friday

Cleveland Indians catcher Roberto Perez (shoulder) was placed on the 10-day injured list on Friday with right shoulder inflammation, according to Mandy Bell of MLB.com. To replace him on the roster, the team has recalled catcher Wilson Ramos. It's been a rough year at the plate for Perez, who is slashing .136/.246/.318 over 34 games. […]


Edwin Diaz Activated From Paternity List

New York Mets relief pitcher Edwin Diaz was activated from the paternity list on Friday, according to Tim Britton of The Athletic.
