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).

Trevor Story Out Of Lineup Monday Night

Colorado Rockies shortstop Trevor Story is not in the starting lineup on Monday night. This appears to just be a night off for Story, who has started in eight straight and 19 of the team's last 20 games. Over 109 games this year, Story is slashing .251/.327/.458 with 16 homers, 17 steals, 58 RBI and […]

Two-Start Pitcher Streamers: Week 22

The year of the no-hitter is back on after Tyler Gilbert's no-no against the Padres last weekend. It was the eighth no-hitter of the year, and the first this season to be thrown by a rookie. And while Gilbert isn't in this week's column, we'll be taking a look at a bunch of rookie pitchers […]


Eduardo Escobar Exits Sunday With Hamstring Injury

Milwaukee Brewers third baseman Eduardo Escobar (hamstring) exited Sunday's game due to right hamstring discomfort, according to Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. Escobar grounded out in his final at-bat in the bottom of the seventh inning, and was then replaced on defense in the top of the eighth inning. He's been hitting well over 20 games […]


Mookie Betts Targeting Thursday Return From IL

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Mookie Betts (hip) is targeting a return from the injured list on Thursday, according to Bill Plunkett of the Orange County Register.

Julio Urias "Trending" Towards Starting Tuesday

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Julio Urias (calf) looks to be in line to be activated from the 10-day injured list on Tuesday, according to Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic.

Mets Hope Francisco Lindor Could Be Activated Tuesday

The New York Mets are hoping that shortstop Francisco Lindor (oblique) could be ready to be activated from the 10-day injured list on Tuesday, according to Justin Toscano of NorthJersey.com.

Chicago Cubs infielder Nico Hoerner (oblique) exited his rehab game on Sunday due to increased tension in his right oblique, according to Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune. Hoerner has been on a rehab assignment while recovering from an oblique strain that has kept him out of action since the end of July. Montemurro reports […]


Kohei Arihara To Make Rehab Start Sunday

Texas Rangers starting pitcher Kohei Arihara (shoulder) will make a rehab start with the Double-A Frisco RoughRiders on Sunday, the team announced on Twitter. Arihara has missed three months of the season after undergoing surgery to correct an aneurysm in his throwing shoulder back at the end of May. Arihara has struggled in his rookie […]


Anthony DeSclafani Lands On 10-Day IL Sunday

San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Anthony DeSclafani (ankle) was placed on the 10-day injured list on Sunday with right ankle inflammation, the team announced on Twitter. The move was made retroactive to August 19. DeSclafani exited his start on Wednesday with ankle soreness, and an MRI on Friday revealed no structural damage to his ankle. […]


Evan Longoria Lands On COVID IL Sunday

San Francisco Giants third baseman Evan Longoria (vaccine) was placed on the COVID-19 injured list on Sunday, according to Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle. Slusser reports that his placement is vaccine related, as it is believed that he is dealing with side effects from a booster shot, as he had previously received the […]


Yu Darvish Expected To Return During Dodgers Series

San Diego Padres starting pitcher Yu Darvish (back) is expected to be activated from the injured list and make his next start sometime during the team's upcoming series with the Dodgers, according to Kevin Acee of the San Diego Union Tribune. Darvish landed on the 10-day injured list following his last start in which he […]


Chris Archer Exits Start Sunday With Hip Injury

Tampa Bay Rays starting pitcher Chris Archer (hip) exited his start on Sunday due to left hip tightness, according to Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times.

Jordan Hicks Unlikely To Pitch Again This Year

St. Louis Cardinals pitcher Jordan Hicks (elbow) is unlikely to pitch again in 2021, according to Jeff Jones of the Belleville News Democrat. General manager John Mozeliak said that it doesn't seem that it will be very likely that Hicks will pitch again for St. Louis this season, and the team is currently focused on […]


Alex Bregman To Play Another Rehab Game Monday

Houston Astros third baseman Alex Bregman (hamstring, quad) will play another rehab game at Triple-A Sugar Land on Monday, according to Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle. This is disappointing news, as it had been reported just yesterday that he could be activated as soon as Monday. He's been out of action since mid-June, and […]


Tejay Antone Expected To Be Activated From IL Tuesday

Cincinnati Reds relief pitcher Tejay Antone (forearm) struck out two of the three batters he faced in a rehab appearance on Sunday, and he's expected to rejoin the Reds on Tuesday for the series opener with the Brewers, according to Bobby Nightengale of the Cincinnati Inquirer. Antone has been out of action since late June […]


Ji-Man Choi Exits Early With Hamstring Tightness

Tampa Bay Rays first baseman Ji-Man Choi (hamstring) exited Sunday's game early due to left hamstring tightness, according to Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times. Choi has been dealing with hamstring issues on and off for the last month, and it tightened up on him enough Sunday to have him pulled in the top […]


Alec Bohm Optioned To Triple-A On Sunday

Philadelphia Phillies third baseman Alec Bohm was optioned to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Sunday, according to Todd Zolecki of MLB.com. The move was made to make room for first baseman Rhys Hoskins, who was activated from the 10-day injured list.

Rhys Hoskins Activated From IL, Starting Sunday

Philadelphia Phillies first baseman Rhys Hoskins (groin) has been activated from the 10-day injured list and is in the starting lineup for Sunday's finale with the Padres.
