With Michael Chavis out, a trio of candidates will see playing time for the Red Sox. Plus, updates on Andrew Cashner, Yadier Molina, Rowdy Tellez, Nathan Eovaldi, Jesse Chavez, Griffin Canning, Jose Martinez, and more.
Still 26 IP below his 2018 workload, Josh Hader appears to be running out of gas in MIL. Plus, Jon Lester's poor second half could force some creativity for CHC, Ke'Bryan Hayes watch in PIT, Senzel returning to 2B in CIN, and jump-starting the offense in STL.
Eloy Jimenez goes to work on contact skills, Martin Perez finds velocity but mixed results, Goodrum looks for speed, Kikuchi's poor results are fact, and Urshela could turn a nice profit in 2019.
ATL has a new closer but Mark Melancon did not have much success in his first appearance after being anointed. Plus, JaCoby Jones injured, Drew Steckenrider out for season, Nick Vincent signs with PHI, and Tayron Guerrero on IL.
Injuries mount in MIN, innings up for grabs in DET, evaluating the youngsters in KC, Jake Bauers demoted in CLE, and Ryan Goins making the most of it for CHW.
Yasiel Puig brings his power-speed combo to the American League. What should we expect the rest of the way? We also examine the quiet usefulness of Jason Kipnis, the high-leverage potential of reliever Derek Law, and the surprisingly hot rebounds of Travis d'Arnaud and Matt Wisler.
