When Donaldson's ready, Kipnis, Diaz, Alonso and Allen are expected to lose PT in CLE. Plus, updates on Bryant, Price, Upton, Shoemaker, Wainwright and more.
NYY 1Bman Luke Voit is just one of the players in the AL East making a case for playing time in September and beyond. The Yankees and others may also be trying to reintegrate oft-injured stars into their lineups.
Chapman like likely done. Earlier: Manaea and Duggar, too. Plus, Heyward and J. Iglesias. Even earlier: Marco Gonzales, Kolten Wong, and an update on Posey.
Aroldis Chapman requires another injection of platelet-rich protein in his ailing knee, and that has NYY questioning whether he'll pitch again in 2018. Plus, Gio Gonzalez traded to MIL, and Bartolo Colon and Marcell Ozuna are activated from the DL.
The initial Sunday slate of September is a strong one, with a handful of stellar starters, a respectable middle tier, and some waiver-wire options at the lower end.
The Yankees make a waiver trade deadline splash by acquiring Andrew McCutchen to bolster their outfield depth. Plus, the Dodgers add Ryan Madson, the A's trade for Cory Gearrin, and Drew Butera heads to Colorado.
Could a terrific August from Cole Hamels get the Cubs to think about picking up his 2019 option? Plus, what September might bring for the CIN rotation, the overrated Trevor Williams in PIT, and the underrated Dominic Leone in STL.
