Amed Rosario Headed To Cincinnati

Former Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Amed Rosario was designated for assignment this week and will now head to Cincinnati.

Philadelphia Phillies catcher J.T. Realmuto is getting a breather on Sunday against the division-rival Washington Nationals at Citizens Bank Park.

Bryce Harper Out Of Sunday's Lineup

Philadelphia Phillies first baseman Bryce Harper will get a much-needed rest day on Sunday as the Phillies look to complete a three-game sweep against the Washington Nationals.

Ketel Marte Getting A Day Off On Sunday

Arizona Diamondbacks second baseman Ketel Marte (ankle) will take a seat in Sunday's series finale. Marte missed three games earlier this week due to an ankle injury and but returned to the lineup on Saturday.
