Kyle Tucker Scratched From Sunday's Lineup

Houston Astros outfielder Kyle Tucker has been scratched from Sunday's game against the Oakland Athletics. Tucker was on the original lineup card, batting fifth, but the Astros have now removed him three hours before the first pitch. It's not yet known why he was scratched but the team should provide some sort of update later […]

Matt Moore Lands On The 15-Day Injured List

Los Angeles Angels relief pitcher Matt Moore (oblique) was placed on the 15-day injured list with a right oblique strain on Sunday. Moore is arguably the Angels' most effective reliever so this is a rough loss for the Halos. He put together an impressive 1.44 ERA, 0.80 WHIP, 21:7 K/BB ratio, and 12 holds over […]

Brenton Doyle Still Absent From The Lineup On Sunday

Colorado Rockies outfielder Brenton Doyle (knee) is absent from the lineup for Sunday's series finale against the New York Mets. Doyle has not appeared in a game since Thursday when he ran into the center-field wall and exited early. The Rockies are hoping that the 25-year-old will avoid the injured list, but that's still to […]

Esteury Ruiz Sitting Out On Sunday

Oakland Athletics outfielder Esteury Ruiz is not in the starting lineup on Sunday against the Houston Astros. This looks to be a day off for the speedy 24-year-old. Ruiz is slashing a solid .268/.328/.352 with one home run, 22 RBI, and 27 stolen bases, which leads all of MLB. JJ Bleday is getting the start […]

Josh Donaldson Could See Another Rehab Game On Tuesday

New York Yankees third baseman Josh Donaldson (hamstring) could see another minor-league rehab game on Tuesday before joining the team, per manager Aaron Boone. Earlier in the week, Boone told reporters that there was a chance that the 37-year-old slugger could rejoin the Yankees for their series against the Mariners, which kicks off on Monday […]

Anthony Santander Back In The Lineup On Sunday

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Anthony Santander (elbow) is back in the lineup on Sunday for the series finale against the Texas Rangers. Santander missed Saturday's contest with elbow soreness, per manager Brandon Hyde. The issue must not be too serious and he's starting in right field and batting cleanup against Texas starter Cody Bradford.

Max Muncy Leaves Game Early Sunday

Los Angeles Dodgers infielder Max Muncy (knee) was having his left knee examined in the top of the third inning of Sunday's contest against the Tampa Bay Rays before being removed. Muncy was limping on the bases the inning prior but managed to tag up and advance twice. Chris Taylor replaced him at third base, […]

Jose Trevino Could Return Tuesday

New York Yankees catcher Jose Trevino (hamstring) will travel with the team to Seattle early next week, and he's in play to be activated from the injured list on Tuesday. Trevino has been sidelined since May 17 with a left-hamstring strain, but he's nearing a return to the team's active roster. When he returns, he'll […]

Giancarlo Stanton Could Begin Rehab Assignment Tuesday

New York Yankees outfielder/designated hitter Giancarlo Stanton (hamstring) could begin his minor-league rehab assignment on Tuesday, and he isn't being ruled out yet for the series next weekend on the road against the Los Angeles Dodgers, according to manager Aaron Boone. Stanton has been out since mid-April with a hamstring strain, but he took on-field […]

Xander Bogaerts Back In Sunday's Lineup

San Diego Padres shortstop Xander Bogaerts (wrist) has returned to the team's starting lineup on Sunday against the New York Yankees and right-hander Gerrit Cole, and he'll be hitting cleanup for the Friars. Bogaerts took Saturday's game off while dealing with wrist soreness, but it's apparently not much of an issue. Ha-Seong Kim will move […]

Carlos Rodon To Throw Bullpen On Monday

New York Yankees left-hander Carlos Rodon (back) is "doing well" and will travel with the team on their west-coast road trip to Seattle and Los Angeles this week, according to manager Aaron Boone. Rodon is scheduled to throw another bullpen session on Monday. Rodon threw his first bullpen on Friday since receiving a cortisone injection […]

White Sox Reinstate Eloy Jimenez From Injured List

The Chicago White Sox reinstated outfielder Eloy Jimenez (appendix) from the 10-day injured list on Sunday and optioned outfielder Adam Haseley to Triple-A Charlotte in a corresponding move.

Josh Fleming Starting Against Dodgers Sunday

Tampa Bay Rays left-hander Josh Fleming is getting the nod as the starter on Sunday in the series finale against the Los Angeles Dodgers, so the Rays won't be using an opener with their bullpen being worked a lot of late. Rookie Taj Bradley was expected to get the nod on Sunday, but the Rays […]
