  • Miles Mikolas keeps Cubs in check, earns win
    Miles Mikolas allowed one earned run across 6 ⅔ on Sunday in a 2-1 win over the Cubs. He struck out five and didn’t walk a batter.

    Advice: Mikolas cruised against the scuffling Cubs on Sunday. The only run on his ledger was an inherited runner that came around after he was yanked and had a fantastic start overall. His command was fantastic as he mixed his four-seamer and sinker evenly keeping the ball off the Cubs’ hitters’ barrels. Rotoworld 8 minutes ago
     
  • Parker picks up fifth win against Marlins Sunday
    Mitchell Parker allowed one run in six innings and got the win in the Nationals’ 3-1 victory over the Marlins on Sunday.



    Advice: Parker gave up six hits, walked none and struck out three. The win was his fifth of the year. It was also Parker’s fifth quality start in 12 starts this year. His ERA is 3.06 on the year despite a 4.02 xFIP. Parker does everything well except get a lot of strikeouts. He has a 42 percent ground ball percentage. Parker’s allowed 0.80 HR/9 and 2.00 BB/9. He’s doing everything he can to prop up an 18 percent strikeout percentage, which gives him a fragile profile. The 24-year-old left-hander is set to face the Rockies on the road next week.

  • Jameson Taillon works quality start Sunday
    Jameson Taillon worked six solid innings on Sunday against the Cardinals allowing just two earned runs. He scattered seven hits, walked two, and struck out three in a loss.

    Advice: The Cardinals made plenty of hard contact off Taillon who kept finding ways to wiggle out of jams and keep runs off the board. He’s put together a solid season despite routinely low strikeout totals by mixing his five pitches and avoiding free passes. He’ll take a 3.08 ERA into his next start against the Mets.

  • Shifts to 60-day IL
    The Dodgers transferred Kelly (shoulder) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Sunday.

    Advice: As a result of the transaction, Kelly won't be eligible to return to the Dodgers bullpen until the first week of July. The right-hander threw a 25-pitch bullpen session Friday, so he already seems to be making good progress in his recovery from the right shoulder strain that has kept him out of action since May 6. He could be cleared to begin a minor-league rehab assignment later this week or next. Rotowire.com 37 minutes ago
     
  • Shut down with lat injury
    The Dodgers placed Grove on the 15-day injured list Sunday with a right lat injury, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.

    Advice: Grove presumably sustained the injury during his two-inning relief appearance in Saturday's 7-2 loss to the Royals. He gave up a run in the outing for a third consecutive appearance and now holds a 5.06 ERA over 37.1 innings on the season. Rotowire.com 40 minutes ago
     
  • Matz (back) strikes out five in rehab start
    Steven Metz (back) threw three scoreless innings and struck out five in a rehab start for Double-A Springfield.

    Advice: That’s his third rehab start as he works his way back from the back injury. He didn’t allow a baserunner and showed off his swing-and-miss stuff; albeit against Double-A hitters. Matz could make one more rehab start, but he looks ready to rejoin the St. Louis rotation as well. Rotoworld 40 minutes ago

  • Back in big leagues
    The Dodgers recalled Feyereisen from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Sunday.

    Advice: Feyereisen and right-hander Michael Petersen will join the Los Angeles bullpen for the series finale versus the Royals, providing the club with some much-needed fresh arms in the bullpen after five Dodgers relievers covered the final seven innings of Saturday's 7-2 loss. Over his nine appearances with the Dodgers this season, Feyereisen has submitted a 6.00 ERA and 1.33 WHIP. Rotowire.com 46 minutes ago
     
  • Joe Kelly (shoulder) moved to 60-day injured list
    Dodgers transferred Joe Kelly from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day injured list.

    Advice: Kelly, 36, will not be eligible to return to the Dodgers now until July 6. The move clears a spot on the 40-man roster for Michael Petersen. Kelly is likely back around the All-Star break based on how his rehab is currently progressing. Rotoworld Today, 12:16 pm
     
  • Dodgers recall J.P. Feyereisen from Oklahoma City
    Dodgers recalled RHP J.P. Feyereisen from Triple-A Oklahoma City.

    Advice: Feyereisen is up with Yoshinobu Yamamoto (triceps) officially placed on the injured list. Feyereisen has made the trip from OKC to Los Angeles a few times, and will likely be a middle-relief option in this stint. Rotoworld Today, 12:12 pm
