Wesneski (elbow) starting rehab assignment

Vásquez was on his way to undergo X-rays on his ankle when he fainted. Those were deemed necessary because he took a Mookie Betts comebacker off his leg in the first inning, though he remained in until being pulled after three innings due to ineffectiveness. He was stable and conscious after fainting.

It’s his third career game with four hits and second with four RBI. Rushing’s five balls in play tonight ranged in exit velocity from 99.2 mph to 108.7 mph. He raised his average 19 points to .263, his OPS 51 points to .843 and his hard-hit rate from 41 percent to 44 percent.

The Dodger offense let him off the hook, but Sasaki put the team in quite a hole tonight. He gave up homers to Manny Machado, Jackson Merrill and Jake Cronenworth and threw 88 pitches to get his nine outs. After a nice May, Sasaki has given up 19 runs over 17 innings in his last four starts, taking his ERA from 4.03 to 5.40. It’s probably lucky for him that River Ryan is back on the shelf in Triple-A with a hamstring issue. He’s due to make his final start before the break Wednesday at home against the Rockies.

The Padres lack quality alternatives, but removing Vásquez from the rotation seems like the only appropriate move at this point. He’s given up 18 runs — 14 earned — in 9 2/3 innings over his last three outings, striking out just two batters in the process. The Padres won eight of his first nine starts this year, but they’ve now lost seven of his last eight turns. If he stays in the rotation, he’ll face the D-backs on Tuesday.

All of Tucker’s hits came on liners to the outfield, two hard and two soft. He’s up to .249 with a .352 OBP, both of which are his highest marks since May 24. He’ll enter Friday’s game having reached in nine straight plate appearances.

No one would have been surprised if Edman started slowly after returning from ankle surgery, but he’s hitting .378/.451/.556 through 13 games. The steal tonight was important, too; he’ll probably be a rather fringy mixed-league option if he doesn’t do some running. That’s something he was very good at in his younger days, but he stole just three bases in 97 games while dealing with the ankle issue last year.

The Mariners had just two hits and the one run came on Cal Raleigh’s bases loaded walk in the sixth. Fortunately, that was enough for Miller, Eduard Bazardo and Andrés Muñoz. It’s Miller’s fourth scoreless start in nine outings since he came off the IL. Of a little concern is that his velocity has been trending down. He averaged 97.5 mph with his fastball in his season debut May 13, but he’s been in the 96.0-96.5 mph range since and tonight he hit a new season low of 95.8 mph. That’s still a little better than his career average of 95.1 mph, but it looks like he’s returning to his old level. He’ll face the Marlins next.

Zach Neto walked to start the ninth but then got picked off/caught stealing. Nolan Schanuel and Jorge Soler went on to single for Wade Meckler grounded out to end the game. It’s Muñoz’s seventh straight scoreless appearance, six of which have resulted in saves. He’s 16-for-20 saving games on the year.

Ureña gave up a leadoff double to JP Crawford in the sixth and then walked three of the remaining five hitters he faced to force in a run. Before that, he walked just one through five, though he did hit two batters. He struck out six. Ureña has shown a lot of promise at age 22, but until the Angels get their act together, he doesn’t seem like a great use of a spot in shallow leagues. That said, he’s a fair play next week in a favorable matchup in Texas against the Rangers.

O’Hoppe had a pretty good two-week stretch in mid-June, but other than that, it’s been a miserable season to date. He’s batting .228/.290/.333 through 208 plate appearances. If he doesn’t really turn things around these next three months, the Angels might have to move on from him this winter.
