Andrew Vaughn Picks Up Three Hits

Chicago White Sox first baseman/outfielder Andrew Vaughn went 3-for-5 with a double and three runs scored in Wednesday's victory versus the Tampa Bay Rays.

Miguel Castro Available Out Of The 'Pen On Wednesday

New York Mets right-handed relief pitcher Miguel Castro (neck) is available out of the bullpen on Wednesday, according to manager Luis Rojas. Castro had been unavailable the past two games due to neck stiffness, which has now improved. The Mets bullpen has been taxed the past few games, so Castro's return should help preserve some […]

Cole Irvin Surrenders Four Runs To Angels On Wednesday

Oakland Athletics starting pitcher Cole Irvin had a rough outing on Wednesday, allowing nine hits and four runs to the Angels in a no-decision. Irvin was hit hard early in the game as he allowed three runs in the first inning before serving up a homer to Shohei Ohtani in the second. He settled down […]

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Lucas Giolito fired six innings in Wednesday's no-decision versus the Tampa Bay Rays. Giolito allowed four hits, three runs, two walks and struck out seven over 102 pitches.

Tarik Skubal Continues Solid Form

Detroit Tigers left-hander Tarik Skubal posted his second consecutive quality start on Wednesday in a win against the Royals. The 24-year-old racked up seven strikeouts and limited Kansas City to only three earned runs despite allowing eight baserunners (six hits, two walks) over six innings.

Brady Singer Goes Only Three Innings On Wednesday

Kansas City Royals starting pitcher Brady Singer (shoulder) reportedly felt something in his shoulder after his last start on June 11 against the Athletics. While he said his concern level is low, this may explain why he was limited to just three innings pitched and 51 pitches thrown in the Royals 6-5 loss to the Tigers […]

Clint Frazier Not In Wednesday's Lineup

New York Yankees outfielder Clint Frazier is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays. Frazier came up with a big, pinch-hit RBI double in Tuesday's game but has otherwise been relegated to a bench role due to the emergence of Miguel Andujar as the team's starting left fielder.

Willson Contreras Resting On Wednesday

Chicago Cubs catcher Willson Contreras will rest on Wednesday versus the New York Mets.

New York Yankees relief pitcher Darren O'Day (shoulder) could begin a rehab assignment this weekend, per manager Aaron Boone.

The veteran reliever would […]

Kris Bryant Out Of Wednesday's Lineup

Chicago Cubs infielder/outfielder Kris Bryant (hand) will be absent from Wednesday's lineup with a bruised right hand.

Mets Hopeful Carlos Carrasco Can Return In July

New York Mets starting pitcher Carlos Carrasco (hamstring) has restarted his throwing program. Carrasco, currently on the 60-day injured list, has started throwing off of flat ground again. While it is not a true bullpen session off of the slope of a pitching mound, it is a step in the right direction. The Mets reportedly […]

Luke Voit Could Return On Tuesday

New York Yankees first baseman Luke Voit (oblique) could return to the lineup next Tuesday. Voit said that his oblique and body both feel fine but that it's a matter of him getting more at-bats and getting his timing down. The slugging first baseman went 1-for-3 last Sunday at the Triple-A level and then 1-for-4 […]

Gary Sanchez Out Of Lineup Wednesday

New York Yankees catcher Gary Sanchez is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's matchup with the Blue Jays. Despite hitting .340 over his past 15 games with four homers, the 28-year-old will see the bench for another Gerrit Cole start.

T.J. Zeuch Will Reportedly Start Thursday Against Yankees

Toronto Blue Jays right-hander T.J.

The […]
