  • Zachary Neto SS | LAA

    Angels' Zach Neto: Idle for series finale Sunday

    Neto is absent from Sunday's lineup against the Phillies, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

    Despite recording at least one base hit in 10 of his last 11 games, Neto will sit out Sunday's matchup as the Angels look to avoid the sweep. Oswald Peraza will play shortstop and bat eighth for Los Angeles.

  • Orioles' Jackson Holliday: Receiving day off

    Holiday is out of the lineup for Sunday's affair with the A's.

    With southpaw Jeffrey Springs on the mound for the Athletics, the left-handed-hitting Holliday will receive a breather for the final game of a three-game set. Blaze Alexander will lead off and play second base for Baltimore.

  • Orioles' Samuel Basallo: Out of Sunday's lineup

    Basallo (hand) is absent from the lineup for Sunday's matchup with the Athletics.

    After being removed early from Saturday's game with a right hand injury, Basallo will sit out Sunday's series finale in Sacramento. Pete Alonso will act as the designated hitter and bat second, while Carlos Narvaez will handle catching duties and bat eighth for Baltimore.

  • Nick Davila RP | SEA

    Mariners' Nick Davila: Brought up to Seattle

    The Mariners recalled Davila from Triple-A Tacoma on Sunday.

    After recently being optioned Aug. 21, Davila will rejoin the big-league club as they wrap up a pivotal three-game set in Toronto. The 27-year-old has appeared in 23 MLB games this season, registering a 4.10 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 13:11 K:BB over 26.1 innings.

    Hancock felt something off in his left leg early on in his most recent start Friday against Toronto. The 27-year-old went on to take the loss after allowing five runs over five innings. The right-hander will miss a minimum of 15 days and a couple of starts for Seattle. The Mariners recalled Nick Davila from Triple-A Tacoma to fill in for Hancock on the 26-man roster.

  • Byron Buxton CF | MIN

    Twins' Byron Buxton: Moves to injured list

    The Twins placed Buxton on the 10-day injured list Sunday due to a right hip impingement.

    The veteran outfielder has dealt with the hip impingement for much of the season and will return to the IL on Sunday after sitting out four straight games. It was previously reported that Buxton could require offseason surgery to address the injury, so it's possible he will be shut down for the season if he doesn't show enough improvement soon. Top prospect Walker Jenkins should continue to operate as Minnesota's primary center fielder.
