Epstein: Zobrist on track to return in Sept.Cubs president of baseball operations Theo Epstein told reporters on Wednesday that Ben Zobrist (personal) is on track to rejoin the Cubs in September.
Advice: Zobrist has not played for the Cubs since May as he deals with a very public divorce from his ex-wife Julianna. The versatile infielder/outfielder will likely be a reserve for the Cubs when he does return; offering the ability to give hitters at several spots a day off over the last month of the season.

St. John recalled by Rangers on WednesdayRangers recalled LHP Locke St. John from Triple-A Nashville.
Advice: St. John has been an up-and-down arm for the Rangers for most of the summer, and will pitch in a low-leverage role while with Texas in this turn. Isiah Kiner-Falefa has been sent to Double-A Frisco in a corresponding move. Rotoworld.comLocke St. John Tex - RPNot Active -
Odorizzi knocked around in loss to White SoxJake Odorizzi surrendered eight hits and four runs (three earned) over five innings Wednesday in a loss to Chicago.
Advice: The right-hander racked up six strikeouts and one walk while throwing 65 of his 104 pitches for strikes. He also hit a batter and was charged with two wild pitches in the losing effort. Odorizzi wasn’t at his best on Wednesday, allowing two runs in the first, another in the third and one more in the fifth. He couldn’t seem to solve Jose Abreu, who beat him for three hits including a pair of RBI singles. The 29-year-old will get another try at the White Sox when the Twins visit Chicago next Wednesday.

Rangers option Kiner-Falefa to Double-ARangers optioned C Isiah Kiner-Falefa to Double-A Frisco.
Advice: The move to Double-A is temporary, as Kiner-Falefa will be promoted to Triple-A Nashville on Thursday. The versatile catcher/infielder has not hit well for the Rangers this year, but it's still a bit of a surprise to see the 24-year-old heading to the minors. That being said, rosters are expanding in September, and he'll almost assuredly be back with Texas when that occurs. He won't offer any fantasy relevance when he does.

Leury Garcia chips in with two hits WednesdayLeurys Garcia supplied two hits in Wednesday’s win over the Twins.
Advice: He singled and scored in the first, then did the same exact thing in the fifth. Both times he was driven in by Jose Abreu, who shredded the Twins for three hits in Wednesday’s victory. Garcia has fallen off a bit since the All-Star break, batting an underwhelming .260 over 154 second-half at-bats. Aside from the occasional steal (14 thefts this year), the 28-year-old doesn’t offer much from a fantasy perspective. Rotoworld.comLeury García CWS - SS,OF
