Dee Gordon's struggles suggest another SEA hitter who could lose AB with Robinson Cano's return. We look at surging Tyler White's role in a banged-up and anemic HOU offense, a possible 2019 closer audition in Anaheim, and more...
Matt Boyd has been quietly putting together a much-improved performance in the second half for the Tigers. Plus, potential rotation changes in CHW and MIN, a pair of speculative hitting options in CLE, and an updated look at the KC bullpen.
Giles brought rare smiles, converting a save Aug. 12 for TOR. How secure is he in the role? Also: BAL adds SP options; who might we see first? BOS closer Kimbrel struggles, as does NYY LHP Britton. Plus, Choi battles Cron in TAM.
Kris Bryant's (pictured) return ETA from the DL and shoulder inflammation is still murky, but David Bote is filling in quite nicely. We look at the pend PIT middle infield rebuild, STL's catching prospect glut and more.
The powerful Franmil Reyes getting looks in the SD outfield, while LA shuffles rotation options, plus the outlook for the SF pen, ARI middle infield, and COL first basemen.
Lance McCullers's strained forearm is just part of an injury run creating playing time opportunities over the final seven weeks in HOU. The current OAK rotation projection, the latest Robinson Cano playing time outlook, and more...
News that the Indians made a run at Ian Kinsler underlines the pressure facing a struggling Jason Kipnis—are there any internal options to replace him? Plus, Palka eating into Davidson's AB in CHW, and rotation questions in KC and MIN.
Mychal Givens may get the next save opportunity in BAL. But can he hold the role? Also: Fifth starter in flux in BOS, Gray's demise in NYY, Meadows' wait in TAM and Hauschild's opportunity in TOR.
Pirates buy at the deadline and boost their rotation. Also, we check in on the Cubs' rotation, the now-crowded MIL infield, some young players to watch in the STL outfield, and find some speed in the CIN outfield.
Some did a little; others did a lot. Deadline-induced shakeups in the NL West include: Dozier's arrival in LAD, a bullpen makeover in ARI, Yates and Stammen staying in SD, and McCutchen doing the same, for now, in SF.
