Dodgers Don't Have Designated Closer

Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said that "right now, there is no dedicated closer." Because of how poorly left-handed reliever Tanner Scott has pitched of late, Roberts isn't anointing him the primary closer, even though the team is without Kirby Yates (hamstring) and Michael Kopech (shoulder). The 30-year-old southpaw took a blown save and […]

Jacob Wilson Absent on Tuesday With Neck Injury

Athletics infielder Jacob Wilson (neck) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Tuesday's game against the Minnesota Twins.

Luis Robert Jr. Getting Time Off

Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert Jr. is out of the starting lineup ahead of Tuesday's game against the Detroit Tigers.
