Adolis Garcia Nails 32nd Home Run In Rangers Win

Texas Rangers outfielder Adolis Garcia hammered his 32nd home run of the season on Saturday night as the Rangers cruised to a 6-2 victory over the Twins. The 30-year-old slugger, known for his ability to drive in runs, capitalized on left-handed reliever Caleb Thielbar's pitching with a 424-foot homer in the sixth inning. Garcia also […]

Esteury Ruiz To Miss Third Straight Game

Oakland Athletics outfielder Esteury Ruiz is out of the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Chicago White Sox. This marks the third game in a row that Ruiz has sat out. It doesn't appear that Ruiz is dealing with an injury, so his absence is likely performance related. The 24-year-old does have 49 steals […]

Sal Frelick Returns On Saturday

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Sal Frelick (hamstring) is back in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the San Diego Padres. The 23-year-old will make his return to the lineup after missing each of the last four games due to a hamstring issue.

Charlie Blackmon Could Return To The Rockies Next Season

Colorado Rockies outfielder/designated hitter Charlie Blackmon could potentially return to the team next season, according to beat writer Patrick Saunders.

Mike Trout Wants To Return This Season

Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout (hand) told reporters on Friday that he'd like to return to action this season.

Starling Marte Unsure If He'll Return This Year

New York Mets outfielder Starling Marte's (groin) optimism for a quick return has waned over the last two weeks after a second opinion on his right-groin strain. "We don't know yet," Marte said when asked if he will play in September. "It could be. It could not be. We're just trying to go through the […]

Parker Meadows Hits Walk-Off Home Run

Detroit Tigers outfielder Parker Meadows went deep for the first time in his career on Friday night, blasting a three-run homer to walk things off.

Michael Conforto Dealing With Grade 2 Hammy Strain

Updating a previous report, the San Francisco Giants are saying that outfielder Michael Conforto (hamstring) is dealing with a Grade 2 left-hamstring strain.

Jarred Kelenic To Start Rehab Assignment Next Week

Seattle Mariners outfielder Jarred Kelenic (foot) will start a minor-league rehab assignment with Triple-A Tacoma next week.

Michael Conforto Placed On 10-Day Injured List

San Francisco Giants outfielder Michael Conforto (hamstring) has been placed on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to Aug. 24.

In a corresponding move, outfielder […]

Ramon Laureano Added To Friday's Lineup

Cleveland Guardians outfielder Ramon Laureano was originally on the bench, but will move into Friday's starting lineup versus the Toronto Blue Jays. The right-handed slugger will play due to the fact Will Brennan (knee) has been scratched from this contest. Laureano will cover right field and bat sixth versus right-hander Chris Bassitt. Also, Oscar Gonzalez […]

Sal Frelick Remains Out Against Padres

Milwaukee Brewers rookie outfielder Sal Frelick (hamstring) is not in the starting lineup on Friday against the visiting San Diego Padres.

Jarren Duran To See A Specialist Monday

Boston Red Sox manager Alex Cora said that outfielder Jarren Duran (toe) will see a specialist on Monday.

Michael Taylor Taking Friday Off

Minnesota Twins outfielder Michael Taylor will get a day of rest on Friday against the visiting Texas Rangers. Joey Gallo will patrol center field instead and will hit eighth in the batting order against Rangers right-hander Dane Dunning.

Esteury Ruiz Getting Another Day Off

Oakland Athletics outfielder Esteury Ruiz is out of the starting lineup again on Friday with the team taking on the Chicago White Sox. With Ruiz slumping at the plate, the A's will give him a second straight day off to mentally and physically recharge.
