Mike Trout Remains Without Timetable

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout (calf) is without a timetable for his return, according to manager Joe Maddon. The superstar outfielder has been on the injured list since the middle of May.

Houston Astros second baseman Aledmys Diaz (hand) exited Saturday's game against Toronto. Diaz was nailed by a pitch in the fourth inning and was officially diagnosed with a left-hand contusion.

Colin Moran Expected To Be Activated Sunday

Pittsburgh Pirates third baseman Colin Moran (groin) is likely to be activated off the 10-day injured list on Sunday.

Garrett Cooper Likely To Miss A Few Games

Miami Marlins first baseman Garrett Cooper (back) was unable to play in Saturday's game against the Pittsburgh Pirates.

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Seth Frankoff (forearm) has been placed on the 10-day injured list.

Fantasy managers who find him floating around as a free […]

Ryan Jeffers Swats Second Homer Of Season

Minnesota Twins catcher Ryan Jeffers went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Saturday's victory over the Kansas City Royals. Jeffers' homer was a towering blast, traveling 435 feet at an exit velocity of 110.4 MPH. The young backstop's time down at Triple-A must have served him well, as he has looked like a completely […]
