Atlanta Braves manager Walt Weiss said that outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr. (hamstring) is a "long way" from returning from the 10-day injured list, according to Mark Bowman of MLB.com.

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Teoscar Hernandez (hamstring) is scheduled to take at-bats in a live batting practice session on Thursday, according to Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register. Hernandez could go on a minor-league rehab assignment early next week, according to manager Dave Roberts. As long as the veteran outfielder doesn't suffer a setback […]

The club's No. 6 prospect is hitting .239 with two home runs, seven RBI, four runs, one stolen base, and a .731 OPS over 46 major-league at-bats. However, Jones has been more productive since re-joining the Yankees in June, […]

Milwaukee Brewers outfield prospect Luis Lara has yet to return to his early-season power production, but he remains firmly in the mix to debut in the coming weeks.

Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Bryan Reynolds can't be stopped right now at the plate. He stayed hot in Tuesday night's 6-5 win over the Athletics in Sacramento by going 4-for-5 with two home runs, three RBI, and three runs scored to boost his season average to .280 and his OPS to .870 on the year. After […]
