Matt Carpenter Returns Saturday

St. Louis Cardinals third baseman Matt Carpenter (shin) is back in the leadoff spot and is playing third base while facing Cubs starting pitcher Jon Lester on Saturday.

Jedd Gyorko Placed On Injured List, Tommy Edman Called Up

The St. Louis Cardinals placed infielder Jedd Gyorko (back) on the 10-day disabled list on Saturday with a lower back strain and recalled infield prospect Tommy Edman from Triple-A Memphis in a corresponding move.

Eduardo Escobar Gets the Day Off

Arizona Diamondbacks third baseman Eduardo Escobar (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Toronto Blue Jays. Escobar has been killing it at the plate this season with 15 home runs already, so this is just a routine day off. Ildemaro Vargas will play third base and bat sixth versus righty […]

Buy or Sell - Undervalued and Overvalued Players for Week 11

Today's piece covers a set of players who either should not be available on waivers or will return back there soon. Most of the earlier editions of this recurring buy or sell article have included several universally owned players whose values have been manipulated enough by early season performances. Unfortunately, as we get deeper into the year, […]

Ryon Healy Suffers Setback

Seattle Mariners third baseman Ryon Healy (back) suffered a setback with his back and has been slowed in his return. Healy has been out since May 20 and might just be more of a bench bat when he returns now that Kyle Seager is starting every day at third base. Healy was hitting a weak […]

Giovanny Urshela Goes Yard As Playing-Time Decision Looms

The New York Yankees' infield is about to get a little more crowded and none of the current members are willing to give an inch.
