Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Cody Bellinger (hamstring) took simulated at-bats on Monday and is expected to be activated from the injured list and be in the lineup on Wednesday, according to Bill Plunkett of the Orange County Register.

Tyler Naquin Not In Starting Lineup Monday Night

Kyle Tucker Projected To Return Later This Week

Houston Astros manager Dusty Baker told the media on Monday that outfielder Kyle Tucker (illness) should be returning to the team "mid to late this week."

Yordan Alvarez Drives In Two More Runs Sunday

Houston Astros designated hitter Yordan Alvarez went 1-for-5 with a run scored and two RBI in Sunday's 8-2 victory over the Chicago White Sox.
