Hayden Wesneski To Remain In Bullpen

Luis Robert Out Of The Lineup Against Guardians

Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert (hand) is not in the starting lineup on Thursday against the Cleveland Guardians.

Anthony Gose Undergoes Tommy John Surgery

Cleveland Guardians left-hander Anthony Gose (elbow) underwent Tommy John surgery on Wednesday in Texas. He's expected to need 12 to 18 months to recover from the elbow reconstruction, so he's highly unlikely to pitch at all for Cleveland next season. Gose hasn't pitched for the Guardians since early July, and he had a 4.71 ERA […]

Owen Miller Not Starting Thursday

Cleveland Guardians infielder Owen Miller is not in the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Chicago White Sox.

Tampa Bay Rays manager Kevin Cash said that second baseman Brandon Lowe's (back) MRI exam showed some inflammation in his back, and he's seeking additional medical opinions to determine the best course of action.

Tyler Glasnow To Make More Rehab Starts

Tampa Bay Rays manager Kevin Cash said right-hander Tyler Glasnow (elbow) came out of his second minor league rehab appearance on Tuesday well, but he will make "multiple" more outings for Triple-A Durham.
