    Nolan Arenado believes he strained his intercostal muscle Sunday and will undergo an MRI.

    The D-backs could give Jose Fernandez another look if Arenado goes on the IL. Tim Tawa could also play third base, opening up some extra at-bats for Tyler Locklear. Jordan Lawlar is about ready to come off the IL, too, but since he’s only played outfield this year, Arenado’s injury probably doesn’t do anything for him.

    Diamondbacks designated OF Max Kepler for assignment.

    The 33-year-old outfielder struggled mightily after returning from his suspension this season, slashing a woeful .205/.262/.303 with two homers, 15 RBI and a 32/11 K/BB ratio over 145 plate appearances — primarily against right-handers. It’s possible that this could be the end of the line for him.

    Orioles recalled RHP Anthony Nunez from Triple-A Norfolk.

    Nunez will take the place of Albert Suarez in the Orioles’ bullpen. The 25-year-old hurler has posted a 4.29 ERA, 1.31 WHIP and a 55/25 K/BB ratio over 50 1/3 innings in 44 appearances with the O’s this season. He’ll function in a middle relief role.

    Orioles placed OF Luis Robert Jr. on the 10-day injured list with left hamstring discomfort.

    That explains why Robert wasn’t in the Orioles’ lineup on Saturday and Sunday. He’ll be shelved for at least a week and a half while dealing with a hamstring issue. It’s a tough break for the O’s and for fantasy managers as the dynamic 29-year-old outfielder had a chance to make a major impact down the stretch. Rece Hinds was recalled from Triple-A Norfolk on Sunday to provide depth in the Orioles’ outfield.

    Royals’ manager Matt Quatraro told reporters on Sunday that Jac Caglianone is dealing with a Grade 1 flexor strain.

    The Royals are hopeful that he won’t require a trip to the injured list. He’ll get a few days off before resuming baseball activity. Fantasy managers who are relying on him for next week should be sure to have an alternative option ready to go.

    Hunter Goodman is not in the Rockies’ starting lineup for Sunday’s tilt against the Cardinals.

    Goodman had started every other game during the week, either as the Rockies’ catcher or as the designated hitter, so he’ll get at least a partial day off in this one. Brett Sullivan will do the catching for the Rockies and will bat seventh against Cardinals’ right-hander Kyle Leahy.

    Astros recalled RHP Miguel Ullola from Triple-A Sugar Land.

    He’ll take the place of Kei-Wei Teng on the Astros’ active roster. Ullola, 24, has posted a 4.50 ERA, 0.83 WHIP and a 9/1 K/BB ratio in six strong innings of work over four appearances with the Astros this season. He’ll give them another bullpen option that’s capable of working multiple innings.

    George Springer is not in the Blue Jays’ starting lineup for Sunday afternoon’s tilt against the Royals.

    It’s the second time in four days that Springer has been held out of action, so it’s possible that he’s battling some sort of minor injury. Vladimir Guerrero Jr. will function as the team’s designated hitter while Sean Keys starts at first base and will bat sixth against Royals’ right-hander Randy Dobnak on Sunday afternoon in Kansas City.
