Cristian Pache Absent From Sunday’s Lineup

Los Angeles Dodgers utilityman Chris Taylor will bat third Sunday against the Rockies and right-hander Antonio Senzatela, the first time that he holds that spot in the lineup this season.

Delino DeShields Sits Sunday Due To Hip Ailment

Cleveland Indians outfielder Delino DeShields is absent from the club’s starting lineup Sunday against Tigers southpaw Tarik Skubal due to the hip tightness that forced him to depart Saturday’s game early.

Hunter Pence Designated For Assignment Amid Slow Start

San Francisco Giants outfielder/designated hitter Hunter Pence was designated for assignment prior to Sunday’s contest against the D-backs. Pence has gotten off to a tremendously slow start in 2020, slashing .096/.161/.250 through his first 17 games. After an All-Star campaign last year, Pence appeared to have revived himself into a fantasy commodity, but his new […]

Trent Grisham Completes Homer Hat Trick

San Diego Padres outfielder Trent Grisham went 4-for-5 Saturday against the Houston Astros, hammering three homers and collecting six RBI.
