  • Reinstated from IL
    Jones (knee) was reinstated from the 10-day injured list Friday.

    Advice: Jones landed on the injured list April 30 due to back stiffness. His initial rehab assignment was halted May 21 due to right knee soreness stemming from a slide, but he was able to resume activities June 3. Across his 12 rehab games with Triple-A Albuquerque, Jones went 9-for-42 with six runs, one home run and six RBI. He is starting in left field and batting fifth for Friday's game against the Pirates. To make room for Jones, Colorado placed Elias Diaz on the 10-day IL with a left calf strain, retroactive to June 11. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:32 pm

  • Joey Gallo to undergo MRI on injured hamstring
    Joey Gallo was set to undergo an MRI exam on his injured hamstring on Friday.

    Advice: The results of that exam are not yet known. The 30-year-old slugger sustained the injury on Tuesday while he was running out a ground ball in the seventh inning. While the severity of the injury remains unclear, it sounds like the Nationals expect him to be sidelined for a while this time around. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:33 pm

  • Rehab bumped to Triple-A
    Sano (knee) will continue his rehab assignment at Triple-A Salt Lake on Friday.

    Advice: Sano suffered a setback in his rehab assignment May 26 after burning himself with a heating pad, but he resumed his minor-league rehab Saturday in the Arizona Complex League. After five ACL games, Sano has joined Triple-A Salt Lake, where he'll likely make a few appearances before being activated from the injured list and rejoining the Angels' active roster.
