Athletics designated INF Aledmys Díaz for assignment.
Advice: Díaz has been jettisoned from Oakland’s roster to make room for younger players to come up and get an opportunity moving forward. The 33-year-old veteran infielder signed a two-year, $14.5 million deal prior to last year and finishes his tenure in Oakland with a disastrous .585 OPS with four homers and one steal in 374 plate appearances over 121 games.

Drury (illness) is starting at second base and batting seventh Tuesday, his first start since June 18.
Advice: After dealing with a hamstring injury, Drury returned from the injured list June 17. However, since then the infielder has been dealing with an illness that has resulted in multiple late scratches and games on the bench. The 31-year-old came off the bench in Sunday's game but went 0-for-2 with a strikeout. Rotowire.comYesterday, 3:03 pm
Dodgers signed INF Alan Trejo to a minor league contract.
Advice: Trejo will head to Triple-A Oklahoma City after refusing an outright assignment last weekend from the Rockies after being designated for assignment. The 28-year-old infielder struggled this season in the majors, but he represents some solid emergency organizational depth for Los Angeles. RotoworldYesterday, 2:57 pm
Trejo signed a minor-league contract with the Dodgers on Tuesday and was assigned to Triple-A Oklahoma City, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports.
Advice: Trejo cleared waivers Saturday after being designated for assignment by the Rockies. He refused an outright assignment, so he became a free agent. The infielder was 9-for-63 with Colorado this season and had posted a 61 OPS+ in four seasons. Rotowire.comYesterday, 2:40 pm
The Athletics designated Diaz for assignment Tuesday.
Advice: Diaz has gone just 3-for-29 in 12 games with the A's this season, and his poor performance has now officially caused him to lose his 40-man roster spot. The 33-year-old owns just a .621 OPS over 32 plate appearances in the minors this season, making it likely he passes through waivers unclaimed. Brett Harris was recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas in a corresponding move. Rotowire.comYesterday, 2:14 pm
Kiner-Falefa was placed on the 10-day injured list Tuesday due to a left knee sprain.
Advice: Kiner-Falefa was scratched from Monday's game with a left knee injury and an MRI revealed he's only dealing with a sprain. Still, the utility player will require an IL stint, opening up a spot on the active roster for Leo Jimenez. Kiner-Falefa is slashing .292/.338/.420 with a 13.2 percent K rate this season.

Blue Jays placed INF Isiah Kiner-Falefa on the 10-day injured list with a right knee sprain.
Advice: Falefa was scratched from Monday’s lineup due to pain in his left knee, and the Blue Jays will have the infielder miss at least a week-plus while he gets better. He underwent an MRI after the injury, and while the results haven’t been made public yet, it couldn’t have been too good of news if he’s going to miss time. Leo Jimenez has been recalled from Triple-A to replace Kiner-Falefa on the roster. RotoworldYesterday, 12:21 pm
Isiah Kiner-Falefa said he underwent an MRI after feeling something in his left knee while stretching prior to Monday’s game.
Advice: This doesn’t sound good. Kiner-Falefa, who is putting together a terrific season as a super-utilityman, was a last-minute scratch before the game today. If he lands on the injured list, it’ll probably mean more regular playing time for Davis Schneider and a longer look for Addison Barger. RotoworldMonday, 3:18 pm
Kiner-Falefa is awaiting results of an MRI on his left knee, Scott Mitchell of TSN.ca reports.
Advice: Kiner-Falefa was a late scratch from Monday's lineup against the Astros after feeling something in his knee while stretching pregame. Ernie Clement was in the lineup for the Blue Jays on Monday at third base, where Kiner-Falefa has been seeing most of his playing time. It's possible an update on Kiner-Falefa's status will be available later Monday. Rotowire.comMonday, 3:11 pm
