MLB Player News

Kim was removed in the fourth inning of Wednesday's game against the Cubs after colliding in the outfield with teammate Tommy Pham, Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

The collision resulted in both players failing to catch a flyball in the shallow outfield, but Kim had the wherewithal to relay the dropped ball into the infield, starting a 6-5-4 double play. Kim still appeared to absorb the brunt of the impact in the collision, as he required assistance off the field with the help of team trainers, while Pham headed to the dugout under his own power. Both players were holding their heads after the collision, so Kim will presumably undergo concussion testing in the locker room. While starting at shortstop for the injured Fernando Tatis (oblique), Kim went 1-for-2 with an RBI prior to departing.

Rojas is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Mets.

Rojas heads to the bench for the first time since May 10, ending a stretch of 21 consecutive starts for the 26-year-old. After a wretched start to the season, Rojas began to turn things around at the plate in late April and has since established himself as an everyday player. Though he'll be sitting with southpaw David Peterson on the mound, the lefty-hitting Rojas should still find himself in the lineup more often than not against both lefties and righties.

Frazier went 2-for-4 with a pair of doubles and an RBI in Tuesday's 10-5 loss to Kansas City.

He leads the majors in hits (71) and doubles (19) while ranking fourth overall with a .335 batting average. Frazier has hits in 15 of his last 16 games, batting .412 (28-for-68) with 11 runs and 10 extra-base hits since May 14. He moved from second base to left field during Tuesday's tilt, giving him four appearances in the outfield in 2021.

Urias went 1-for-3 with a walk and a solo home run in Tuesday's 10-7 loss to the Tigers.

The ball was flying at American Family Field as the two teams combined for nine homers, and Urias got in on the fun with a ninth-inning blast off Gregory Soto, his sixth home run of the year. The infielder has five hits and four RBI in his last three games, and with Travis Shaw mired in a 4-for-40 slump, Urias has become more than just a platoon option against lefties at third base for the Brewers.

Stott has been promoted to Double-A Reading, Tom Housenick of The Morning Call reports.

Scott got off to a strong start this season with High-A Jersey Shore, slashing .288/.453/.548 with five homers and 10 RBI across 95 plate appearances. His solid play has earned him a promotion to Double-A Reading, where he will debut Tuesday.

The Rockies recalled Trejo from Triple-A Albuquerque on Tuesday.

Trejo returns to the Rockies after suffering a dislocated finger May 21 in Triple-A. He fills the roster spot of Connor Joe, who was optioned Tuesday, and figures to get some action at shortstop until Trevor Story (elbow) recovers from his injury.

Lux went 2-for-4 with two solo home runs in Monday's win over the Cardinals.

Lux recorded his first multi-hit game since May 23, and perhaps coincidentally, that was the last time he belted a home run as well. The second baseman has settled in as a regular this season, but his numbers aren't eye-popping by any means -- he's only hitting .247 with a .701 OPS across 168 plate appearances.

Dubon went 1-for-2 with a solo home run in Monday's 6-1 win over the Angels.

Dubon entered the game in the sixth inning after Evan Longoria (side) exited. In the bottom of the sixth, Dubon extended San Francisco's lead to 4-1 with his solo shot, which was his second homer in as many games. The utilityman is slashing .244/.281/.387 with four homers, 17 RBI, 11 runs scored and a stolen base through 48 contests this year. If Longoria is forced to miss time, one of Dubon, Wilmer Flores or Donovan Solano would likely handle third base in a near-everyday role.

Gorman owns a .274/.358/.417 slash line with three doubles, three home runs, 10 RBI, two stolen bases, 11 walks and 14 runs across 95 plate appearances for Double-A Springfield.

The promising prospect is more than holding his own in his first exposure to Double-A arms, and his current 26.3 percent strikeout rate, while elevated, is actually better than those he generated at the Low-A and High-A levels during the 2018 and 2019 campaigns. Gorman has also continued to display above-average patience at the dish, as evidenced by an 11.6 percent walk rate that's his highest since his first professional stop in rookie ball back in 2018. If he continues to enjoy similar success with Springfield into the latter portion of the summer, a promotion to Triple-A Memphis at some point before the conclusion of the minor-league season certainly wouldn't be out of the question.

India isn't in the lineup Monday against the Phillies.

India had started each of the last three games and went 3-for-9 with an RBI, a walk and four strikeouts. Max Schrock will start at second base and bat fifth.
