Ramon Urias Plates Two Friday, Stays Hot

Baltimore Orioles second baseman/shortstop Ramon Urias continued to produce at the plate in Friday's 6-1 win over the Nationals, going 1-for-4 with a single, two RBI, and a strikeout. The 27-year-old has done a nice job at the plate this season, slashing .285/.350/.415 with four home runs and 20 RBI. However, he doesn't hit for […]

The New York Yankees appear to be in buying mode with the trade deadline approaching next week, and they have been in contact with the Miami Marlins on center fielder Starling Marte, the Minnesota Twins on outfielder Max Kepler and the Colorado Rockies on Trevor Story, according to two sources. The Yankees have also focused […]

Carlos Correa Stuck In Offensive Rut

Houston Astros shortstop Carlos Correa will try and shake loose from a 1-for-25 offensive rut heading into Friday's action against the Rangers. Correa is having a fantastic offensive year and is an impending free agent at season's end. At the All-Star break, the 26-year-old was slashing .288/.385/.510 with 16 home runs, 20 doubles and 52 […]

Trevor Story Drawing Interest As A Potential Outfielder

Colorado Rockies shortstop Trevor Story is in the midst of numerous trade rumors and speculation as the Trade Deadline approaches, but MLB.com's Mark Feinsand reports that at least one team has talked about acquiring Story and playing him in center field. Story has never played in the outfield throughout his career in the majors or […]

Carlos Correa Looks To Snap Skid On Friday

Houston Astros shortstop Carlos Correa will look to snap his ice-cold streak at the plate on Friday in the series opener with the Rangers. Over his last 10 games now, Correa is 2-for-37 with one double, two runs scored and a 15:1 K:BB ratio. This slump has dropped his season average by 28 points and […]

Cubs Activate Matt Duffy, DFA Eric Sogard

The Chicago Cubs have activated infielder Matt Duffy from the 60-day injured list on Friday. Duffy was sidelined since May 22 with a lower back strain. Duffy was having a solid season before his injury and has hit .278 with one home run, 12 RBI and three stolen bases. With infielder/outfielder Kris Bryant likely to […]

Orlando Arcia Smacks Solo Blast In Victory

Atlanta Braves shortstop Orlando Arcia has struggled during a majority of his time with the big league club.

It was Arcia's second home run […]

Ronald Torreyes Reaches Four Times In Loss To Braves

Philadelphia Phillies third baseman Ronald Torreyes had a perfect day at the plate on Thursday, going 2-for-2 with two walks and a run scored in a loss to Atlanta.

Josh Rojas Not In Starting Lineup Friday

Arizona Diamondbacks utility player Josh Rojas (finger) is not in the lineup for Friday's series opener with the Cubs after dislocating his pinkie on a slide into second base on Wednesday.

Fernando Tatis Jr. Steals 23rd Base Thursday

San Diego Padres shortstop Fernando Tatis Jr. went 0-for-4 with a walk Thursday, but he did still steal a base and come around to score a run. It was his 23rd stolen base of the season, leaving him two swiped bags behind Whit Merrifield for the major league lead. Tatis Jr. now has 29 homers […]

Jurickson Profar Drives In Two

San Diego Padres utility man Jurickson Profar made the most of his start Thursday night, going 2-for-4 with a walk and two RBI in a 3-2 win over the Miami Marlins.

Jon Berti Diagnosed With Concussion

Miami Marlins utility player Jon Berti (concussion) was forced to leave Thursday's game against the San Diego Padres after being hit by a pitch in the back of the head. Berti was officially diagnosed with a laceration on the back of his head and a concussion. He required three stitches and will almost certainly be placed […]

Miguel Rojas Walks Three Times On Thursday

Miami Marlins shortstop Miguel Rojas reached base three times on Thursday, drawing three walks. Batting in the first spot in the Marlins order, Rojas was officially 0-for-1, but he did his job, getting on base. The Marlins went 1-for-11 with runners in scoring position though, so Rojas was unable to come around to score despite […]

Kris Bryant, Craig Kimbrel Likely To Be Traded

Rival executives believe that the Chicago Cubs will sell big with third baseman Kris Bryant, closer Craig Kimbrel, starting pitcher Zach Davies and perhaps others at the trade deadline, but there's also a solid chance that they hold onto shortstop Javier Baez and/or first baseman Anthony Rizzo. The Cubs are expected to try and sign […]

Donovan Walton Recalled, Yohan Ramirez Optioned

Seattle Mariners infielder Donovan Walton has been recalled from Triple-A Tacoma on Thursday. He is slashing .206/.254/.365 with a pair of home runs over 63 at-bats this season. Obviously, Walton is not much of a fantasy option, but will be nice depth for Seattle. Right-hander Yohan Ramirez has been optioned to the minors in a […]

Isiah Kiner-Falefa Knocks In Two Runs

Texas Rangers infielder Isiah Kiner-Falefa appears to be breaking out of his little slump at the plate. On Thursday, he went 1-for-5 with two RBI during the 7-5 loss to the Detroit Tigers. Obviously, it wasn't a great outing at the plate, but at least he knocked in two runs. The Rangers will certainly take […]
