Horwitz appeared in 15 games for the big club in 2023, slashing .256/.341/.385 with one home run and seven RBI over 44 plate appearances.

  • Jarred Kelenic returns to lineup Saturday vs. Nats
    Jarred Kelenic (wrist) is back in the lineup for Saturday’s game against the Nationals.

    Advice: Kelenic is in left field and batting ninth in his return to Atlanta’s lineup following a two-game absence due to right wrist soreness stemming from a diving catch attempt earlier this week. It doesn’t sound like a serious concern moving forward. Rotoworld 10 minutes ago
     
  • Sent down to Triple-A
    The Rangers optioned Garabito to Triple-A Round Rock on Saturday.

    Advice: After posting a 2.05 ERA, 0.92 WHIP and 30:8 K:BB over 26.1 innings in the minors, Garabito was called up by the Rangers on May 26. Since the promotion, the 28-year-old right-hander has appeared in three games for the big club, allowing one run on four hits and five walks while striking out five over 5.2 innings. The move corresponds with the Rangers activating right-hander Jon Gray from the injured list. Rotowire.com 16 minutes ago
     
  • Brewers ink Elieser Hernández to one-year deal
    Brewers signed RHP Elieser Hernández to a one-year contract.

    Advice: Hernández bolsters Milwaukee’s relief depth in the majors after electing free agency earlier this week following his removal from the Dodgers’ 40-man roster. The 29-year-old righty made five appearances (one start) this season in the big leagues for Los Angeles. Rotoworld 19 minutes ago
     
  • Signs with Brewers
    Hernandez signed a one-year contract with the Brewers on Saturday.

    Advice: Hernandez elected to become a free agent after being pushed off the Dodgers' 40-man roster, and he'll now look to carve out a role for himself in Milwaukee. The 29-year-old righty has given up nine runs in 9.2 innings this season. He worked primarily as a reliever during his brief stint with the Dodgers, but he will likely serve as a starter for a Brewers team that has dealt with a plethora of injuries to its rotation. In order to make room for Hernandez, James Meeker was optioned to Triple-A Nashville and DL Hall (knee) was transferred to the 60-day IL. Rotowire.com 21 minutes ago
     
  • Brewers transfer DL Hall (knee) to 60-day IL
    Brewers transferred LHP DL Hall to the 60-day injured list.

    Advice: Hall visited specialist Dr. Neal ElAttrache in Los Angeles for a second opinion on his left knee and has opted to go the rest and rehabilitation route instead of receiving a platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injection. The procedural move keeps him sidelined until at least late June and opens up a spot on Milwaukee’s 40-man roster. Rotoworld 23 minutes ago

  • Goes deep Friday
    Mountcastle went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and a hit-by-pitch in Friday's 6-3 win over the Rays.

    Advice: Mountcastle has homered three times over four games versus the Rays this season. The first baseman is batting .349 (22-for-63) with five long balls and 13 RBI over his last 16 contests. For the season, Mountcastle has a strong .281/.321/.509 slash line with 11 homers, 31 RBI, 34 runs scored, two stolen bases and 16 doubles over 57 games. He's shown modest growth from last year's .270/.328/.452 slash line, and he's also cut his strikeouts down from 22.8 percent to 21.2 percent year-over-year. Rotowire.com 25 minutes ago
     
  • Miguel Andujar not in lineup Saturday vs. Blue Jays
    Miguel Andujar is not in the lineup for Saturday’s game against the Blue Jays.

    Advice: Andujar takes a seat for the first time since May 25 after going 1-for-20 over his last five games since a four-hit explosion back on June 1. It’ll be Daz Cameron drawing a start in left field on Saturday afternoon in his place. Rotoworld 28 minutes ago
     
  • Mashes another homer
    Santander went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Friday's 6-3 win over the Rays.

    Advice: Santander's slow start to the season stood out compared to most of the rest of the Orioles, but he's warmed up significantly. Over his last 15 games, the outfielder is hitting .291 (16-for-55) with six homers and 11 RBI. He's homered in four of his last seven contests and now has a .227/.306/.472 slash line with 13 long balls, 36 RBI, 33 runs scored and no stolen bases over 58 games this season.
