  • Kyle Isbel CF | KC

    Royals' Kyle Isbel: Sitting Saturday

    Isbel is not in Kansas City's starting lineup against Toronto on Saturday.

    John Rave will draw the start in center field and bat seventh while Isaac Collins and Jac Caglianone man left and right field, respectively. Isbel has gone 7-for-34 (.206) with one steal, four RBI and five runs scored over his last 10 outings.

  • Yankees' Jasson Dominguez: Back with big club

    Dominguez was recalled from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Saturday.

    Dominguez was sent down to Triple-A after the Yankees acquired Heliot Ramos from the Giants in early August, but the former is back with the big club after Trent Grisham (hamstring) was placed on the 10-day injured list. Dominguez has appeared in 53 major-league games this year, slashing .230/.270/.380 with seven steals, six home runs, 14 RBI and 21 runs scored across 211 plate appearances. He should see some playing time in the outfield, though he figures to operate in a depth role behind Ramos, Spencer Jones and Cody Bellinger.

  • Trent Grisham CF | NYY

    Yankees' Trent Grisham: Lands on IL with hamstring strain

    The Yankees placed Grisham on the 10-day injured list Saturday due to a right hamstring strain.

    Grisham tweaked his right hamstring during Friday's game against the Padres. The injury is severe enough for the veteran outfielder to go on the IL, and the Yankees are hopeful that he'll be back with the big club before the regular season is complete. Jasson Dominguez was recalled from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre in a corresponding move, and Spencer Jones could see a bump in playing time in center field against right-handed pitching for as long as Grisham is sidelined.

  • Angel Martinez LF | CLE

    Guardians' Angel Martinez: Playing right field Saturday

    Martinez (shoulder) is starting in right field and batting second against the Tigers on Saturday, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.

    Martinez sustained a left shoulder bruise during the second game of Friday's doubleheader against Detroit when he collided with Brayan Rocchio. The injury doesn't appear to be a major concern, as Martinez is in the lineup for Saturday's contest. He has gone 8-for-26 with one steal, two home runs, six RBI and six runs scored over his last nine games.

  • Chase DeLauter RF | CLE

    Guardians' Chase DeLauter: Not in Saturday's lineup

    DeLauter (wrist) is not in the Guardians' starting lineup against the Tigers on Saturday, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.

    DeLauter suffered a right wrist sprain during the second game of Friday's doubleheader against Detroit. He's considered day-to-day, but it's uncertain if he will be back in the lineup for Sunday's series finale. Angel Martinez (shoulder) will start in right field while Jo Adell serves as the Guardians' designated hitter.

  • White Sox's Braden Montgomery: Smashes sixth homer

    Montgomery went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in a 4-1 win over Minnesota on Friday.

    In Montgomery's first at-bat, the 23-year-old clubbed a solo shot off Zebby Matthews to extend Chicago's lead. The switch hitter snapped a 10-game drought without a long ball. On the campaign, Montgomery is slashing .225/.315/.363 with six homers and 36 RBI over 298 plate appearances.

  • Max Clark CF | DET

    Tigers' Max Clark: Three hits in Friday's matinee

    Clark went 3-for-4 with two RBI and a stolen base in the first game of Friday's doubleheader against the Guardians.

    The Tigers ended up being swept in the twin bill, but Clark did what he could to prevent a loss in the matinee, piling up three hits for a second straight game and the third time in his brief MLB career. After an 0-for-4 showing in the nightcap, the rookie center fielder sports a .265/.331/.434 slash line through his first 32 contests for Detroit with two homers, two steals, 14 runs and 16 RBI.

  • Trent Grisham CF | NYY

    Yankees' Trent Grisham: Slated to undergo imaging

    Grisham will undergo imaging on his right hamstring after leaving Friday's game against the Padres, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports. "Not sure yet if it's an IL or not, but it certainly could be," manager Aaron Boone said.

    Boone revealed that Grisham hurt his hamstring while attempting to steal second base in the second inning. The outfielder missed time earlier this season with an injury to the same hamstring. Spencer Jones moved to center field Friday following Grisham's exit, with Heliot Ramos entering the game in right -- perhaps a preview of the Yankees' regular outfield alignment, at least until Aaron Judge (ribs) returns.

  • Lazaro Montes RF | SEA

    Mariners' Lazaro Montes: Leaves game with hip soreness

    Montes was removed from Friday's game against the Athletics with left hip soreness.

    The 21-year-old crashed into the outfield wall while attempting to make a play on a Zack Gelof triple, which led to Montes exiting his third career MLB game. Though the Mariners have provided the location of Montes' injury, the full extent of the issue remains uncertain. Consider him day-to-day for now.

  • Lazaro Montes RF | SEA

    Mariners' Lazaro Montes: Exits after crashing into wall

    Montes was removed from Friday's game against the Athletics in the fifth inning with an apparent injury, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.

    Montes, playing in just his third MLB game, crashed hard into the outfield wall while trying to make a play on a Zack Gelof triple in the top of the fifth. While Montes got up and was walking around afterward, he was replaced in right field by Taylor Ward in between innings.
