Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Eric Lauer will have his next turn in the rotation skipped.

Chas McCormick Remains Out On Saturday

Houston Astros outfielder Chas McCormick (back) remains out of the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Chicago White Sox. He continues to deal with a lingering back issue that has forced him to miss four of the last five games. McCormick returned from the injured list on Monday, so hopefully he won't need another […]

Chicago White Sox catcher Yasmani Grandal (hamstring) has been scratched from Saturday's starting lineup against the Houston Astros. The veteran catcher was removed early during Thursday's game due to hamstring tightness.

Mike Zunino Out Of The Lineup Saturday

Cleveland Guardians catcher Mike Zunino (neck) isn't in the lineup for Saturday's matchup against the Angels. He didn't play on Friday because of neck stiffness, so he'll miss another one.

Willson Contreras Back Behind The Dish On Monday

According to Katie Woo of The Athletic, catcher Willson Contreras will be behind the dish for Monday's meeting with the visiting Brewers. The veteran has been in the lineup, although he's been spending time at the designated hitter spot. However, with Wilson serving as the backstop versus Milwaukee, Andrew Knizner's fantasy value will fade.

Elvis Andrus Heads To Injured List

Chicago White Sox infielder Elvis Andrus (oblique) landed on the 10-day injured list on Saturday. The veteran exited Friday's game against the Houston Astros because of oblique discomfort, which has since been revealed as a strain.
