  • White Sox outright Zach Remillard to Triple-A
    White Sox sent INF Zach Remillard outright to Triple-A Charlotte.

    Advice: Remillard passed through waivers unclaimed after being designated for assignment earlier this week. The 30-year-old infielder will likely stick around as extra organizational depth back at Triple-A Charlotte rather than elect free agency. Rotoworld Yesterday, 2:20 pm

  • Outrighted to Charlotte
    Remillard cleared waivers Thursday and was sent outright to Triple-A Charlotte, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

    Advice: Remillard has been DFA'd three times since the beginning of the calendar year, and he has passed through waivers unclaimed all three times. The 30-year-old infielder has slashed .242/.342/.333 through 15 games with the White Sox but has not had the same success in Triple-A, logging a .349 OPS in 79 plate appearances.

  • Christopher Morel in Thursday’s lineup vs. Reds
    Christopher Morel (foot) is in the lineup for Thursday’s showdown against the Reds.

    Advice: It’s a positive sign that Morel is back in the lineup without missing any time after making an early exit from Wednesday’s contest against the White Sos after fouling a ball off his left foot. The 24-year-old has been a mainstay in the heart of Chicago’s lineup supplying 11 homers and six steals through 61 contests. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:54 pm
     
  • Fractures hand at Triple-A
    Madrigal suffered a fractured left hand when he was hit by a pitch during a game with Triple-A Iowa on Wednesday, Tommy Birch of the Des Moines Register reports. He was placed on the 7-day injured list.

    Advice: Madrigal was playing in his first game with Iowa after being optioned there earlier this week. It's not clear at this juncture how much time he might miss, but he certainly he won't be an option to rejoin the Cubs for several weeks. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:45 pm
     
  • In Thursday's lineup
    Morel (foot) is starting at third base and batting cleanup Thursday against the Reds.

    Advice: Morel was taken out of Wednesday's game after fouling a ball off his left foot, but he appears to be feeling well enough to return to the Cubs' lineup without a day off. The 24-year-old has posted just a .203 batting average so far this season, but he has been heating up recently, going 6-for-19 with two homers, three RBI and six runs scored across his last six games.

  • Bumped up to Triple-A
    The Red Sox promoted Yorke from Double-A Portland to Triple-A Worcester on Wednesday.

    Advice: The 22-year-old made his Worcester debut in Wednesday's 9-6 loss to Rochester, starting at second base while going 1-for-4 with a walk and a stolen base. Yorke received the call-up to Worcester despite turning in a pedestrian .251/.325/.366 slash line over his 197 plate appearances with Portland on the season. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:44 am
     
  • Plays seven innings in field
    Perdomo (knee) started at shortstop and went 1-for-3 with an RBI in a rehab game with Triple-A Reno on Wednesday.

    Advice: Perdomo's rehab moved from the rookie-level Arizona Complex League to Reno on Wednesday, and the shortstop played seven innings in the field. Per Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com, the Diamondbacks aren't targeting a specific number of games or at-bats for Perdomo; instead, his return date depends on how he feels. Arizona manager Torey Lovullo confirmed Perdomo won't be activated from the 10-day injured list during the upcoming four-game series against the Padres that begin Thursday, but a return next week could be in the cards.

  • Expected to be fine
    Manager Craig Counsell said after Wednesday's game versus the White Sox that he believes Morel will be fine after he fouled a ball off his left foot, Maddie Lee of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

    Advice: Morel had to leave Wednesday's contest because of his foot, and although he never received an X-ray, the Cubs are confident he escaped the incident without any severe damage. There's a chance Morel sits out a game or two in order to recover from any lingering soreness, but a trip to the injured list shouldn't be necessary. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 10:02 pm
     
  • Drives in four
    Gonzales went 2-for-3 with a two-RBI double, a sacrifice fly and an RBI single during Wednesday's 10-6 win over the Dodgers.

    Advice: Despite the Pirates putting up a 10-spot, Gonzales' two-RBI double in the second inning was Pittsburgh's lone extra-base hit on the day. His four RBI tied his career high, which was set May 24 against Atlanta. Before that, the 25-year-old hadn't generated more than two RBI in a game in his career. Wednesday's contest added to Gonzales' breakout campaign, as he's slashing .310/.355/.500 with 20 RBI, 12 runs and two stolen bases in 94 plate appearances. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 9:31 pm
