Chicago White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson (shoulder) exited during the fourth inning of Saturday's game against the Seattle Mariners with shoulder soreness. He went 0-for-1 with a walk before leaving. According to White Sox manager Pedro Grifol, Anderson could return Sunday. "Tim, his shoulder got a little sore, I think he did it pregame out […]

Jean Segura Lands On The Injured List

Miami Marlins infielder Jean Segura (hamstring) has been placed on the 10-day injured list. Segura initially hurt his hamstring during Wednesday's contest against the Mariners before missing Friday's opener against the Nationals. The 33-year-old has been an unmitigated disaster for the Marlins, after signing a two-year, $17 million with Miami in the offseason. He's slashing […]

Mauricio Dubon Taking A Seat Against The Reds On Saturday

Houston Astros infielder/outfielder Mauricio Dubon is not in the lineup on Saturday against the Cincinnati Reds. This looks to be a routine day off for the 28-year-old utility man.

Mauricio Dubon Back In Leadoff Spot

Houston Astros infielder/outfielder Mauricio Dubon is starting in right field and is back in the leadoff spot on Friday against the Cincinnati Reds and rookie left-hander Andrew Abbott.

Ezequiel Duran Taking Day Off Thursday

Texas Rangers infielder/outfielder Ezequiel Duran is not in the team's starting lineup on Thursday against the division-rival Los Angeles Angels.

Mauricio Dubon Heads To Bench Against Nationals

Houston Astros infielder Mauricio Dubon will start on the bench on Thursday against the Washington Nationals with shortstop Jeremy Pena (illness) returning from a three-game absence due to an illness.

Houston Astros shortstop Jeremy Pena (illness) is back at shortstop and is hitting sixth in the lineup on Thursday against Washington Nationals left-hander MacKenzie Gore.
