  • Mops up Sunday
    Lorenzen allowed one run on three hits and struck out one over four relief innings in Sunday's 7-3 loss to Toronto.

    Advice: After getting chased by the Blue Jays on Saturday, when he lasted two-thirds of an inning (40 pitches), Lorenzen volunteered to pitch Sunday following starter Jon Gray's (groin) removal without throwing a pitch. He gave the Rangers 55 pitches and saved the bullpen. With the team having a day off Thursday, Lorenzen is expected to remain Friday's scheduled starter against Boston.

  • Begins light activity
    Correa (heel) participated in limited hitting drills Saturday and worked out on a treadmill, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports. He could soon progress to running on the field.

    Advice: Correa was placed on the 10-day injured list July 20 due to right plantar fasciitis. He had been wearing a boot on his right foot, so he's making progress. It sounds like he could still be a week or more away from starting a rehab assignment. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:48 pm

  • Tanner Houck posts quality start in loss on Sunday
    Tanner Houck posted a quality start in Sunday night’s loss to the Yankees, surrendering four runs (three earned) on five hits over his six innings of work.

    Advice: Houck also issued four walks on the evening while recording only two strikeouts. The Yankees jumped on him right out of the gate in this one, as Aaron Judge smacked an RBI single and Gleyber Torres added a two-run knock in the opening inning. Houck settled in nicely afterwards though, allowing just an unearned run in the fourth the rest of the way. He got six whiffs on 97 pitches on the night, registering a CSW of 20 percent. The 28-year-old hurler will look to bounce back as he brings a 2.79 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and a 116/33 K/BB ratio (129 innings) into Saturday’s showdown against the Rangers in Arlington.

This was Goldschmidt's second homer in three games during the weekend series versus Washington. The first baseman is up to 16 long balls this year, five of which he's hit over 21 contests in July. For the season, he's slashing .230/.288/.388 with 41 RBI, 50 runs scored, six stolen bases and 16 doubles over 101 games. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 4:11 pm
