David Bote Officially Placed On The IL
Chicago Cubs second baseman David Bote has been placed on the 10-day injured list with a dislocated left shoulder. He suffered the injury during Saturday's game vs. the Reds while sliding into second base. Shoulder issues can be tricky so we should expect Bote to be out longer than the minimum 10 days. He's slashing […]
Justin Turner Not In The Lineup On Sunday
Los Angeles Dodgers third baseman Justin Turner is out of the lineup on Sunday vs. the San Francisco Giants. Zach McKinstry is starting at third base and batting seventh against Kevin Gausman.

1B and 3B Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 10
This weekend marked the triumphant return of CI-eligible Cody Bellinger. He was likely the highest drafted or most costly CI a team selected to start the season. Bellinger was out since April 5 with a broken leg. He was off to a terribly slow start, but the sample size was small enough to read nothing […]

Jonathan Villar Homers, Scores Twice Saturday
New York Mets third baseman Jonathan Villar had a good night Saturday against Atlanta, going 1-for-4 with a home run, a walk, and two runs scored. He very nearly hit another home run with the bases loaded, but his fly ball was caught just in front of the right-field fence. Villar now has five homers […]
Luis Arraez Could Be Out For At Least A Couple Of Weeks
Minnesota Twins utility Luis Arraez (shoulder) could miss "at least a couple of weeks" with a partial dislocation of his right shoulder, per manager Rocco Baldelli. Arraez was placed on the 10-day injured list three days ago, though he'll apparently be forced to miss more time than the team initially thought. Arraez's absence should mean […]

David Bote Leaves Game With Apparent Injury
Chicago Cubs infielder David Bote (shoulder) left Saturday's game against the Reds with a shoulder injury. Bote appeared to hurt himself sliding into second base and was removed from the game holding his left shoulder.

Blue Jays-Indians Postponed On Saturday
Saturday's scheduled matchup between the Toronto Blue Jays and Cleveland Indians has been postponed due to inclement weather, according to MLB.com's Mandy Bell.
