Manaea out and K. Hererra is back on the injury schneid. That follows: Posey, Hellickson, Bour, Villanueva, Judge, Leonys, Chapman, Ozuna, and {breath} Jose Abreu. Earlier: Archer, L. Garcia and A. Sanchez.
Mallex Smith's illness could give valuable AB to Austin Meadows, among others. Plus, Aaron Sanchez activated, Curtis Granderson to see reduced PT, Ervin Santana shut down, and more.
The Aug. 26 starter pool is possibly the weakest Sunday group of 2018. There are few true aces and a massive middle tier that is full of hit-or-miss options.
Jeremy Jeffress and Josh Hader will likely split duties for the demoted Corey Knebel. Plus, updates on Mike Trout, Buster Posey, CC Sabathia, Kyle Barraclough, Bartolo Colon, Michael Fulmer, Lourdes Gurriel Jr., and more.
Billy Hamilton has been more than holding his own at the plate for two-plus months. But is he long for the lead-off spot in CIN? Also: injury updates in CHC, Marte earns manager's ire in PIT, and a multitude of rotation options in STL.
Dellin Betances is expected to take over as the regular closer while Aroldis Chapman is out. Plus, Justin Upton lands on DL, Kelvin Herrera activated, and Jose Abreu has surgery.
