  • Nick Madrigal suffers fractured hand at Triple-A
    Nick Madrigal has been diagnosed with a fractured left hand.

    Advice: It’s a tough break for Madrigal, who was playing in his first game back at Triple-A Iowa after being demoted earlier this week by the Cubs. The 27-year-old infielder is facing a lengthy absence. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:10 pm
     
  • 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.

  • 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
     
  • Day off
    LeMahieu is not in the lineup for Thursday's contest versus the Twins.

    Advice: LeMahieu has now started seven of nine games since his return from the injured list but has gone just 4-for-22 with no extra-base hits during that stretch. Oswaldo Cabrera will get the call at third base for the Yankees on Thursday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:22 pm

  • Not starting versus lefty
    Rojas is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Athletics.

    Advice: The lefty-hitting Rojas will exit the starting nine while the Athletics bring southpaw JP Sears to the hill. Dylan Moore started at second base in Seattle's last two games but will shift over to third base Thursday while Rojas takes a seat. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:05 am
     
  • Back to bench Thursday
    Davis is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Mariners.

    Advice: Davis had started at first base in both of the Athletics' previous two matchups with right-handed pitchers, going 2-for-7 with a pair of singles. Though the Mariners are bringing another righty (Bryan Woo) to the hill for Thursday's series finale, Davis will cede his spot in the lineup to Tyler Soderstrom. The Athletics could elect to rotate Davis, Soderstrom and Aledmys Diaz at first base until one of the three begins performing well enough to take control of an everyday role.

  • Helps fill in for injured mate
    Duran entered as a pinch runner for Corey Seager (hamstring) and went 1-for-3 with a run scored in Thursday's 9-1 win over Detroit. He was also picked off/caught stealing.

    Advice: Duran remained in the game to play third base while Josh Smith, the primary third baseman while Josh Jung (wrist) is unavailable, moved to shortstop to cover Seager's spot in the field. Texas manager Bruce Bochy downplayed the injury when speaking to Kennedi Landry of MLB.com following the game. If the injury lingers, the combination of Smith and Duran should handle the left side of the infield. The Rangers are off Thursday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:51 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.
