    Eric Lauer is staying in the Dodgers’ rotation, per California Post’s Jack Harris.

    Lauer was originally slated to move to a bulk relief role, but the team decided to send Emmet Sheehan down to Triple-A and keep Lauer in the rotation. Of course, Blake Snell (elbow) is also close to returning, and Tyler Glasnow (back) is beginning a rehab assignment, which means Lauer may be moving to the bullpen shortly. For now, he’ll start Wednesday against the Cubs.

He then led off the eighth inning with an infield single, again swiped second base and scored on an RBI single off the bat of Oneil Cruz. For the season, the 28-year-old infielder is slashing .248/.321/.318 with three homers, 29 RBI and 13 stolen bases (in 14 attempts) across 340 plate appearances.

    Mason Montgomery slammed the door on the White Sox on Thursday evening, working a scoreless ninth inning to preserve a two-run advantage.

    Montgomery made things a bit interesting, allowing a leadoff single to Randal Grichuk that brought the tying run to the dish. He rebounded though, to retire Miguel Vargas and Munetaka Murakami on ground balls before striking out Edgar Quero to end the game. The 26-year-old southpaw has been terrific for the Bucs this season, registering a 2.77 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and a 95/23 K/BB ratio over 61 2/3 innings while converting 12 of his first 14 save chances.

    Jared Jones delivered a dazzling performance in Thursday night’s victory over the White Sox, allowing just one hit and two walks over seven shutout innings.

    Jones racked up eight strikeouts in the dominant performance. The lone hit against him came with two outs in the seventh inning as Colson Montgomery doubled to right. The 25-year-old righty piled up a whopping 20 swings and misses on 90 offerings in the game — 12 of those on his slider — while posting a strong CSW of 33 percent. He’ll look to keep the good times rolling as he carries a 4.10 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and a 100/30 K/BB ratio (85 2/3 innings) into a tough matchup against the Brewers on Wednesday.

    Vargas drew a leadoff walk in the fourth inning, swiped second base and took third on a throwing error, but the White Sox couldn’t cash him in from there. The 26-year-old is having an outstanding season at the dish, slashing .248/.359/.477 with 30 homers, 79 RBI and 17 stolen bases — career highs across the board.

    Erick Fedde pitched well in a losing effort against the Pirates on Thursday night, allowing two runs on four hits across 5 1/3 innings.

    Fedde struck out three batters on the night and didn’t allow a base on balls. He took over in the third inning and worked into the eighth. He served up a solo homer to Oneil Cruz in the fourth inning, then exited with a man on second and one out in the eighth and that runner ultimately scored against the bullpen. Fedde got six whiffs on 81 pitches on the night, posting an uninspiring CSW of 22 percent. He’ll bring a respectable 3.97 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and a 91/48 K/BB ratio (133 2/3 innings) into Tuesday’s matchup against the Guardians in Cleveland.

    Anthony Volpe went 3-for-4 with a grand slam and five RBI on Thursday night, leading the Yankees in a 10-3 thrashing of the Rockies.

    Volpe certainly made the most of his return to the Bronx on Thursday. He smacked an RBI single off of Ryan Feltner in the second inning that increased the Yankees’ lead to 3-1. He also swiped third base before being stranded there. Volpe then delivered a 352-foot (104.0-mph EV) grand slam off of Jimmy Herget in the seventh inning that made it a 10-2 ballgame. With his three-hit attack, the 25-year-old infielder is now slashing .251/.333/.349 with just two homers, 24 RBI and eight stolen bases in 198 plate appearances with the Yankees this season.

    Luis García Jr. went 1-for-5 and launched his 30th home run of the season on Thursday in a lopsided victory over the visiting Rockies.

    García got the Yankees’ offense started in the opening inning with a 413-foot (103.7-mph EV) two-run shot off of Rockies’ right-hander Ryan Feltner. It’s the first time in his career that the 26-year-old infielder has eclipsed the 30-homer plateau. He’s in the midst of an unbelievable offensive campaign, slashing .287.319/.553 with 30 homers, 91 RBI and five stolen bases in 499 plate appearances between the Nationals and Yankees.

With his three-hit evening, the 25-year-old slugger is now hitting .255/.333/.452 with nine homers, 33 RBI and nine stolen bases in his first 235 plate appearances with the Bombers.

    Max Fried struggled with his location in a no-decision against the Rockies on Thursday, allowing one run on one hit and two walks over just 3 1/3 innings.

    Fried punched out seven batters on the night. While the poor command didn’t lead to any trouble, it did lead to Fried needing 80 pitches (48 strikes) to record 10 outs, which is why he was yanked in the middle of the fourth inning. The lone tally against him came on a solo homer by Kyle Karros in the second inning. The 32-year-old southpaw will look to bounce back as he totes a 2.73 ERA, 0.99 WHIP and a 94/31 K/BB ratio (99 innings) into Tuesday’s matchup against the Twins in Minneapolis.

He struck out in each of his other three plate appearances in the contest, finishing the night 1-for-4. On the season, the 24-year-old is now slashing .261/.355/.426 with 11 homers and 45 RBI.
