  • Belts eighth homer
    Greene went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Yankees.

  • Dylan Carlson (shoulder) to be activated on Sunday
    Dylan Carlson (shoulder) is expected to be activated from the 10-day injured list on Sunday.

  • Headed back to Triple-A
    Pages will be optioned to Triple-A Memphis prior to Sunday's game against the White Sox, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: He was up as a third catcher for a bit but will clear out to make room for Dylan Carlson's (shoulder) return from the injured list. Pages is 0-for-2 in four plate appearances with the big club, although he did have a go-ahead sac fly in the ninth inning of a comeback win over the Tigers earlier this week.

  • Nolan Arenado reaches five times, homers in loss
    Nolan Arenado went 3-for-3 with a three-run homer and two walks on Saturday against the White Sox.

  • Wyatt Langford exits game with leg injury Saturday
    Wyatt Langford was removed from Saturday night’s battle against the Royals after suffering a leg injury while running to first base.

    Advice: The 22-year-old phenom hit a slow tapper out in front of home plate and was much slower than usual getting to first base. The exit could have been precautionary, with the Rangers holding a big early lead in the game, but we’ll know more when they provide an update on Langford’s status. Stay tuned.

  • Returns from IL with homer
    Kiermaier went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Nationals.

    Advice: Activated from the injured list earlier in the day following a minimum absence with a hip injury, Kiermaier took reliever Derek Law deep in the eighth inning to extend the Blue Jays' lead. It was his first longball of the season and just his third extra-base hit. Kiermaier finished last season with an above-average 104 OPS+, but for fantasy purposes he remains more of an AL-only play.

  • Logan O’Hoppe diagnosed with right hand contusion
    The Angels announced that Logan O’Hoppe was diagnosed with a right hand contusion after exiting Saturday’s game against the Guardians.

    Advice: It sounds like the 24-year-old backstop was fortunate to avoid any fractures after he had his had hit by a foul ball during Saturday’s game against the Guardians. He may need a day or two off to deal with pain and swelling, but shouldn’t be looking at any sort of extended absence. Rotoworld Today, 4:41 pm
