Houston Astros catcher Jason Castro (Achilles) has been activated from the 10-day injured list on Tuesday. He has been sidelined since late May due to left Achilles soreness.

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Marco Gonzales made his longest start since returning from the injured list on Sunday against the Minnesota Twins, lasting five innings and throwing 91 pitches. He gave up three runs on eight hits and two walks while striking out five batters. Gonzales is worth rostering for now, but he'll have to […]

Justin Thomas Looks To Regain Form At Torrey Pines

It has been something of an up-and-down year for the ultra-talented Justin Thomas. He kicked off the year with some off-the-course issues before rebounding to win The Players Championship in March.

The veteran went 2-for-4 with a single, a two-run home run (his 15th of the season), three RBI, and a strikeout.

Ty France Reaches Twice, Drives In A Run Monday

Seattle Mariners designated hitter Ty France went 1-for-3 with a double, a walk, and an RBI Sunday against the Minnesota Twins.

Anthony Rendon Exits Early Monday

Los Angeles Angels third baseman Anthony Rendon (triceps) was unable to play all the way through Monday's game against the Oakland Athletics.

Zack Littell To Serve As Opener Again

San Francisco Giants pitcher Zack Littell will serve as the opener for Tuesday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. He threw a scoreless frame last Wednesday against the Texas Rangers.

Ryan Weathers Comes On In Relief Monday

San Diego Padres pitcher Ryan Weathers tossed three innings of relief Monday against the Colorado Rockies, allowing one earned run on three hits. Weathers earned five consecutive starts prior to this appearance as the Friars moved to a temporary six-man rotation, but reverted to swingman as starter Dinelson Lamet completed just four frames.

Lance McCullers Jr. To Start On Tuesday

Houston Astros starting pitcher Lance McCullers Jr. (shoulder) will rejoin the rotation versus the Texas Rangers on Tuesday. He allowed one run over four innings of work during his rehab start.

Luke Voit Continues Rehab Assignment On Tuesday

New York Yankees first baseman Luke Voit (oblique) will continue his rehab assignment with Double-A Somerset on Tuesday. The slugging first baseman played his first rehab game on Sunday and will stay with the organization throughout the week. Voit is working his way back from a Grade 2 oblique strain.
