  • Losing work to Flores
    Brooks is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels.

    Advice: Brooks looked as though he might hold down a strong-side platoon role at first base following his call-up from Triple-A Sacramento on May 28, but he appears to have since faded into a pure backup role behind Wilmer Flores. He'll be out of the lineup for the fifth straight game, with the Giants facing three lefty starters and two righties during that span. Rotowire.com 2 minutes ago
  • Gets ejected Sunday
    Machado was ejected from Sunday's game against the Mets in the sixth inning for arguing balls and strikes. He went 1-for-3 with an RBI and two strikeouts.

    Advice: Padres manager Mike Shildt was also tossed from the game after leaving the dugout to argue with the home-plate umpire. Machado slammed his bat in frustration with the called third strike but didn't make any contact with the umpire, so he shouldn't be subject to any further punishment from MLB.

  • 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 12 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 14 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 15 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 20 minutes ago
  • Lifted early with leg injury
    Crawford was removed from Sunday's game against the Cubs in the top of the eighth inning with an apparent left hamstring injury, John Denton of MLB.com reports. He went 1-for-1 with a double, two walks and a run scored before departing.

    Advice: With Masyn Winn getting a day out of the field and serving as the Cardinals' designated hitter, Crawford entered the starting nine at shortstop for just the 12th time all season. He got off to a strong start to the day at the plate before he was pulled midway through his eighth-inning plate appearance, when he appeared to grab at his hamstring following a big swing. Jose Fermin came off the bench to replace Crawford and popped out. The Cardinals should have more information on Crawford's condition after the game. Rotowire.com 25 minutes ago
  • Brandon Crawford leaves with apparent leg injury
    Brandon Crawford left Sunday’s game against the Cubs with an apparent injury.

    Advice: Crawford grabbed at the back of his leg after swinging and missing at a pitch, and Jose Fermin came in to finish the rest of the at-bat. The 37-year-old will likely undergo testing to determine the severity of the injury, and there should be an update on his status before the conclusion of Sunday’s finale. Rotoworld 29 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 34 minutes ago
