  • Giants put Patrick Bailey on 7-day concussion IL
    Giants placed C Patrick Bailey on the 7-day concussion injured list.

    Advice: No word yet on the exact nature of the injury that Bailey is dealing with, but he was set to miss his third straight contest on Tuesday night due to an illness that appears to be related to the concussion he suffered earlier this month. There is no timetable for his return at the moment as his long-term health is far more important than anything baseball-related. Rotoworld 5 minutes ago

  • Late scratch Tuesday
    Garver (undisclosed) was scratched from the Mariners' lineup Tuesday versus the Royals.

    Advice: Garver was originally set to operate as the team's designated hitter and bat third Tuesday, but he'll now take a seat. It's unclear what caused the 33-year-old to be scratched and more information will likely be provided following the contest. In the meantime, Mitch Haniger will slot in at designated hitter while Sam Haggerty will enter the lineup in left field and bat ninth against Kansas City. Rotowire.com 30 minutes ago

    Advice: No word yet on the reason for the change. The 33-year-old veteran slugger has been ice-cold this season in his Seattle debut, batting just .174 (21-for-121) with five homers and 13 RBI in 143 plate appearances over 36 contests. Rotoworld 34 minutes ago

  • Bowden Francis (forearm) sharp in rehab outing
    Bowden Francis (forearm) struck out four over two scoreless innings on Tuesday in a minor league rehab start for Triple-A Buffalo.

    Advice: Francis threw 28 pitches and looked sharp in his first rehab outing as he aims to rejoin Toronto’s bullpen in a versatile multi-inning role. The 28-year-old righty was unable to make it work as a traditional starter at the outset of the year, but he’s been really effective in shorter stints out of the bullpen in recent years. He should be back at some point in the coming days. Rotoworld 38 minutes ago

  • Beginning mound work Wednesday
    Phillips (hamstring) will throw a bullpen session Wednesday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: Phillips has been on the injured list with a strained right hamstring since May 5, and he resumed playing catch Friday. He will presumably throw multiple bullpen sessions before progressing to facing live hitters, though he shouldn't take long to build back up as a reliever. Rotowire.com Today, 5:23 pm
