MLB Player News

Carroll was removed from Sunday's contest against the Cardinals in the ninth inning with an undisclosed injury, Steve Gilbert of MLB.com reports.

Carroll was spotted grimacing after striking out swinging in his fourth at-bat of the day in the seventh inning, and he was replaced at the plate by Jorge Barrosa with two outs in the bottom of the ninth. Carroll finished his day having gone 1-for-4 with a pair of strikeouts, and more information on the exact diagnosis of his injury will likely be provided in the near future.

Schmitt went 1-for-4 with a stolen base and a run scored in Sunday's 6-3 loss to the Mariners.

Schmitt is hitting .254 (15-for-59) with three home runs, seven RBI and two steals over 14 contests in July. The utility man is now batting .278 with a .795 OPS, 19 home runs, nine steals, 50 RBI and 44 runs scored over 91 contests. He'll volume his way to career highs in most areas this season, though he's coupled that with a better ability to put the ball in play -- he's posted a meager 2.6 percent walk rate, but his 19.2 percent strikeout rate is notably improved compared to previous years.

Valdez went 1-for-3 with a home run, two walks and two RBI in Sunday's 7-1 win over the Guardians.

Valdez had a classic three-true-outcomes game, walking twice and striking out twice before launching a two-run shot in the ninth inning. The 22-year-old is now riding a seven-game hitting streak, going deep six times with 15 RBI and eight runs scored during that span. He's slashing a ridiculous .305/.373/.733 with 12 homers, 32 RBI and 23 runs scored across his first 118 major-league plate appearances.

Edman is not in the starting lineup for Game 2 of Sunday's doubleheader against the Yankees, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.

Edman will get a breather in the nightcap after he went 2-for-4 with three runs scored in the team's 8-2 matinee victory Sunday. Miguel Rojas will take over at second base and bat sixth in the series finale.

Church is not in the lineup for Sunday's matchup against the Diamondbacks.

After going a combined 0-for-8 with a strikeout in his first two games back since the midseason break, Church will get a breather for the series finale. Jose Fermin will start in center field and bat seventh.

Carrigg is absent from Sunday's lineup against Cincinnati.

Carrigg will ride the bench for the second time during this three-game set against the Reds. Jake McCarthy will shift to center field in place of Carrigg.

Miami optioned Hinds to Jacksonville on Sunday.

After spending just over a week with the big-league club, Hinds will make his way back down to Jacksonville. The 25-year-old logged just two at-bats with the Marlins in his second big-league stint this season and his first with Miami. The Marlins recalled Graham Pauley from Triple-A to take Hinds' spot on the active roster.

Tatis went 1-for-2 with a solo home run, two walks and a stolen base in Saturday's loss to Kansas City.

Not much went right for San Diego in the defeat, but Tatis at least prevented the team from being shut out with his third-inning solo homer. The speedy slugger added a theft of second base to round out a productive line. Tatis is up to 24 stolen bases on the campaign -- tied for fifth-most in the majors -- but Saturday's long ball was just his sixth this season. The lack of power has led to a .732 OPS, which is on pace to be the lowest mark of Tatis' career.

Myers started in center field and went 0-for-3 with a walk in Saturday's 10-3 loss to Colorado.

Myers made his first start and second appearance since being activated from the injured list Friday. He got the start against a right-hander, which until recently has been TJ Friedl's assignment. The two will share center field while Blake Dunn (elbow) remains sidelined.

Tawa started at first base and went 0-for-4 in Saturday's 5-3 win over St. Louis.

Tawa was back at first base after manning center field Friday. He's started five of the last six games at first base -- a result of the team designating Pavin Smith for assignment -- but his versatility could take him elsewhere over the next several weeks. Two outfielders, Tommy Troy (shoulder) and Lourdes Gurriel (thigh), have landed on the injured list within the last few days.
