Baltimore Orioles reliever Felix Bautista shut down the Milwaukee Brewers in the ninth to close out a 6-3 win. Bautista allowed just a one-out single and struck out a pair. He has been magnificent this season, pitching to a 1.20 ERA, 1.10 WHIP, and 62:17 K:BB ratio over 30 IP. The 27-year-old is now 16-for-20 […]

Jimenez pulled up lame after running to first base in the ninth inning, but the early indication […]

Phillies Sign Drew Hutchison To Minor-League Deal

The Philadelphia Phillies signed free-agent right-hander Drew Hutchison to a minor-league deal on Thursday, and he will report to Triple-A Lehigh Valley. Before Hutchison was released by the Toronto Blue Jays last week, he posted a 5.66 ERA, 1.80 WHIP, 29 walks and 31 strikeouts in nine starts (35 innings) for Triple-A Buffalo. The 32-year-old […]

Adam Duvall To Come Off Injured List Friday

Boston Red Sox outfielder Adam Duvall (wrist) will be activated from the 60-day injured list on Friday before the start of a weekend series against the division-rival New York Yankees in the Bronx.

Minnesota Twins manager Rocco Baldelli said that second baseman Jorge Polanco (hamstring) is being considered day-to-day after leaving Thursday's game early against the Tampa Bay Rays with a left hamstring injury. "He's still, I think, pretty strong in the muscle, but he definitely felt something. We're going to have to pay attention to it," Baldelli […]

Eloy Jimenez Leaves Contest Early Thursday

Chicago White Sox outfielder Eloy Jimenez (undisclosed) was moving slowly after hitting a ground ball to shortstop on Thursday against the New York Yankees in the second game of a doubleheader that seemed like a surefire double play. Jimenez was grimacing after making it to first base and then was pulled from the game for […]

Alex Cobb Experiences Hip Tightness Thursday

San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Alex Cobb (hip) exited Thursday's meeting with the Rockies. The right-hander made it through five innings before leaving with left hip tightness, allowing eight hits and four runs while striking out seven batters. Fortunately, the injury may not be as severe as initially expected, with Cobb stating postgame he's not concerned […]

Cody Bellinger To Face Live Pitching In Arizona

Chicago Cubs outfielder Cody Bellinger (knee) will travel to Arizona to face live pitching before beginning a rehab assignment. The rehab update isn't anything new. However, considering Bellinger will face live pitching first could delay his return even more. The veteran has been out of the lineup since May 15 because of a left knee […]

Pete Alonso Heads Back To New York For More Tests

New York Mets first baseman Pete Alonso (wrist) returned home for further testing on Thursday. After taking a pitch to the left wrist, the slugger exited Wednesday's game versus the Braves.

Yordan Alvarez Exits Thursday's Game Against Toronto

Houston Astros outfielder/designated hitter Yordan Alvarez (oblique) exited Thursday's game against Toronto. The slugger lasted one at-bat before his night ended abruptly because of right oblique discomfort. Considering Alvarez is hitting .274 with 55 RBI and 17 home runs this season, the Astros won't take any chances. Unfortunately, that means he'll surely miss time, with […]

Kevin Kiermaier Injured On Thursday

Toronto Blue Jays outfielder Kevin Kiermaier (wrist) was removed from Thursday's meeting with the Astros after getting hit by a pitch in the second inning. Fortunately, X-rays were negative, and he was diagnosed with a left wrist contusion. The 33-year-old, who sat out a few games recently because of a back issue, will likely miss […]

Lance McCullers Jr. Will Have An MRI After Setback

Houston Astros starting pitcher Lance McCullers Jr. (forearm) will have an MRI on Friday, according to general manager Dana Brown. Unfortunately, the results aren't expected back until next week, so fantasy managers will need to wait a few days before learning what the future holds for the right-hander. The 29-year-old, who played well last season […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in deep/AL only leagues ROSTERED IN: 3% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Outfielder Jo Adell gets another crack at big-league action as the Los Angeles Angels have promoted their former top prospect who will be in the starting lineup Thursday night against the Chicago Cubs.

Tyler Holton To Open, Reese Olson Serving As Bulk Reliever

Detroit Tigers left-hander Tyler Holton is serving as the team's opener on Thursday against the Philadelphia Phillies and he'll likely only pitch one inning, although manager A.J. Hinch has left the door open for a second frame. Rookie right-hander Reese Olson will enter after Holton as the bulk reliever. "With Kyle Schwarber and Bryce Harper […]

C.J. Cron Still Dealing With Back Pain

Colorado Rockies first baseman C.J. Cron (back) said on Thursday that he is still dealing with lower-back pain, and there is no timetable for his return. Cron has been on the injured list since the middle of May and doesn't appear ready to resume baseball activities, so it might be a surprise if he's back […]

Graham Ashcraft Fine After Being Hit By Comebacker

Cincinnati Reds starting pitcher Graham Ashcraft (calf, knee) said his knee locked up after he was hit in the calf by a comebacker during his start on Thursday against the Los Angeles Dodgers, but he expects to be fine in two to three days.

Philadelphia Phillies left-handed reliever Jose Alvarado (elbow) will come off the injured list on Friday. Alvarado will return to the Phillies bullpen after missing the last four weeks with left-elbow inflammation. The 28-year-old Venezuelan southpaw allowed two runs and four hits in his two minor-league rehab appearances, but he should return to a high-leverage role […]

Daulton Varsho Getting A Breather Thursday

Toronto Blue Jays catcher/outfielder Daulton Varsho is taking the day off on Thursday against the Houston Astros with left-hander Framber Valdez on the mound. Varsho snapped a 10-game hitting streak on Wednesday, but he's gone 7-for-23 (.304) with three home runs and four RBI in seven games since the calendar flipped to June. The 26-year-old […]

Pete Alonso Sitting On Thursday Against Atlanta

New York Mets first baseman Pete Alonso (wrist) is not in the team's starting lineup on Thursday against the Atlanta Braves.
