Los Angeles Dodgers third baseman Justin Turner (hamstring) felt some tightness in his hamstring while scoring on Wednesday night, which is why he's out of the lineup on Thursday.

Travis Shaw To Rejoin Team Next Week

Milwaukee Brewers infielder Travis Shaw (wrist) will rejoin the team after the Triple-A series this weekend, according to manager Craig Counsell. Shaw's role will be uncertain, as he was hitting a brutal .163/.266/.281 with four home runs and eight RBI in his 135 at-bats before getting injured.

The Tampa Bay Rays recalled third baseman Christian Arroyo from Triple-A on Thursday. Arroyo has taken the next step this season against Triple-A pitching with a .314/.381/.608 slash line over 33 games.

St. Louis Cardinals third baseman Matt Carpenter, catcher Yadier Molina (hand) and outfielder Dexter Fowler are all out of the starting lineup on Thursday.

Yandy Diaz Takes More Swings Wednesday

Tampa Bay Rays third baseman Yandy Diaz (hand) took swings in the batting cage for the second straight day on Wednesday and said his hand feels better, but he still has some pain when swinging a bat.
