    Giants placed C Daniel Susac on the 10-day injured list with a left knee patella fracture.

    Susac is likely to miss the remainder of the season after an MRI revealed a left kneecap fracture that he suffered over the weekend on a foul ball. The 25-year-old backstop was outstanding defensively this season and hit .243/.289/.375 with three homers and two steals in 161 plate appearances over 53 games. He’ll be part of San Francisco’s catching equation for the next few years.

    Yankees released RHP Rafael Montero from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

    Luis Gil (shoulder) is starting a rehab assignment at High-A Hudson Valley

    Gil has been on the injured list at Triple-A since May 8th due to inflammation in his shoulder, so he will need plenty of time to build his innings back up. Given that he had already been sent to the minors before the injury, it’s a long shot that he pitches meaningful innings for the Yankees this season.

    Joe Ryan (glute) threw on flat ground on Monday.

    Ryan was placed on the injured list with a glute strain on Friday, so it’s good news that he’s already throwing. Of course, throwing off flat ground means he’s not pushing off in the same way he would on a mound, which would test his glute a bit more. We may be looking at a minimum stay on the IL for Ryan, but he’ll need to progress to a mound at some point this week.

    Byron Buxton (hip) took pre-game batting practice on Monday.

    Buxton has been on the injured list with a hip impingement since July 29th. He also had an injection to help him battle through his lingering issue. However, reports were that the batting practice session went well, so the 32-year-old could be close to returning. It remains to be seen if the Twins will want to send him out on a rehab assignment.

    The Athletic’s Spencer Nusbaum reports that the Nationals will call up LHP prospect Jackson Kent this week.

    The 23-year-old has posted a 3.72 ERA in 94 1/3 innings across Double-A and Triple-A this season. Kent has a four-pitch mix and added velocity this season, which led to a big boost in strikeouts in Double-A. In 63 2/3 innings at Triple-A, he posted a respectable 25 percent strikeout rate. He remains more of a pitchability-over-stuff prospect, so it remains to be seen how his arsenal will translate to the MLB level.

    Mike Burrows (elbow) will make a rehab start for Triple-A Sugar Land on Friday.

    Burrows was optioned to Triple-A on July 7th, but then that assignment was voided when he was placed on the injured list on July 13th. He’s been sidelined for almost a month, so he’ll need a few rehab starts but could simply remain in the Triple-A rotation even when his rehab is done.

    Braves manager Walt Weiss said that Hurston Waldrep (arm) will begin a throwing progression this week.

    Waldrep has been shut down since July 19th, when he pulled himself from a start for Triple-A Gwinnett with right arm discomfort. There has been no information about specifically what part of the arm was bothering him, but it seems that he’s on the mend. Still, if he begins throwing this week, he’ll need to fully ramp up and then face live hitters before a rehab assignment, so it will be a stretch for him to come back and pitch meaningful innings this season.

    Joe Musgrove said he currently feels the “best [he’s] felt in two years.”

    Musgrove hasn’t pitched in a game since Game 2 of the 2024 Wild Card Series against the Braves. He left that game injured and underwent Tommy John surgery a week later. During spring training this year, he experienced a setback with his elbow that delayed his recovery. It wasn’t until July that he started to face live hitters again, but he looked good in his last rehab start, throwing 1.6 mph harder than he did in 2024. He’ll likely need two more rehab starts, but he could be an option for the Padres and fantasy managers in September.

    Shohei Ohtani went 2-for-4 with an RBI double, a stolen base and two runs scored in the Dodgers’ 6-5 defeat of the Royals on Monday.

    Ohtani had gone 67 straight games without a steal before collecting his seventh of the year tonight. It’s unlikely that he’ll do all that much running the rest of the way, but it’s nice to know it’s there when he needs it.

    Tarik Skubal allowed three runs in five innings to take a no-decision against the Royals in his home debut for the Dodgers on Monday.

    Jac Caglianone singled and homered to drive in all three runs. Skubal finished up with six strikeouts, four of which came on his fastball. He averaged 97.4 mph with that offering, his third highest mark of the season. He also came in at 97.3 mph last time out, so it looks like his stuff might be peaking at a good time for the Dodgers. He’ll likely face the Brewers on Sunday.
