Mason Miller

SD Relief Pitcher #22

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Mason Miller struck out three in a scoreless ninth for his 11th save Sunday against the White Sox.

Miller had been stuck on 10 saves for eight days, just because the Padres hadn’t presented him any opportunities. It was nice to see him fan three out of four batters today. He had struck out just two in his previous four innings.

He should be back in the Padres lineup tonight against the Orioles. Fantasy managers in daily transaction leagues can put him back in their lineups as well.

Drake Baldwin

ATL Catcher #30

Drake Baldwin (oblique) will begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A Gwinnett on Saturday.

Baldwin will miss the weekend series with the Mets, but could be activated on Tuesday if all goes well. Fantasy managers who have been suffering without the services of the star catcher, who hit .303/.389/.543 with 13 homers and 38 RBI before hitting the shelf, won’t have to wait too much longer.

Anthony Kay

CWS Starting Pitcher #18
White Sox announced LHP Anthony Kay will start Friday’s game against the Dodgers.

After the Braves and White Sox were postponed yesterday, the White Sox opted to bump back the entire rotation a day. Kay will go tonight and Sean Burke will go on Saturday. Neither is a recommended option against the Dodgers.

Ryan Walker

SF Relief Pitcher #74

Giants recalled RHP Ryan Walker from Triple-A Sacramento.

Walker had a 1.93 ERA in 9 1/3 innings in Sacramento, striking out seven and allowing no homers. He’s obviously not being handed the closer’s role back right away, but nobody else in San Francisco has really seized it either. Walker’s ultimately a monitor at this point in most leagues.

Jerar Encarnacion

INT Right Fielder #19

Yokohama BayStars signed OF Jerar Encarnacion.

Encarnacion was DFA’ed off the Giants roster in May. The 28-year-old has hit .211/.237/.362 in 291 MLB plate appearances, but is a career .260/.359/.481 hitter with 54 homers in four seasons at the Triple-A level. He’ll look to re-establish his career overseas.

Osvaldo Bido

INT Starting Pitcher #45

Yokohama BayStars signed RHP Osvaldo Bido.

Bido was DFA’ed off the White Sox roster in May — it was his seventh organization in five months. He’ll try to re-establish himself in Japan.

Jordan Hicks

CWS Relief Pitcher #44

Jordan Hicks (lat) will begin a rehab assignment on Saturday with Triple-A Charlotte.

Hicks has a 5.60 ERA across 17 2/3 innings for the White Sox, so the team will likely not rush him back. He will continue to fill a role in the middle innings when he does return.

Antwone Kelly

PIT Starting Pitcher #89

Pirates recalled RHP Antwone Kelly from Triple-A Indianapolis.

Kelly is the Pirates’ 7th-ranked prospect. The 22-year-old has a 4.50 ERA in 54 innings at Triple-A (13 appearances, 10 starts) with a 47/24 K/BB ratio. Kelly pitched for the Netherlands in the World Baseball Classic, but he was born in Aruba and will be the first pitcher from Aruba to debut in MLB since 1998 and the first Aruban pitcher in MLB overall in 17 years. He’ll provide the Pirates with some length and velocity in their bullpen.

Brandan Bidois

PIT Relief Pitcher #77

Pirates optioned RHP Brandan Bidois to Triple-A Indianapolis.

Despite struggling to a 7.20 ERA in 15 innings at Triple-A, Bidois posted a solid 4.05 ERA in 13 1/3 innings with the Pirates. However, his 16/11 K/BB ratio was a bit of a problem. He’ll get another chance later this season.

Patrick Sandoval

BOS Starting Pitcher #43

Patrick Sandoval (biceps/elbow) allowed one run on one hit in 1 2/3 innings for Triple-A Worcester on Thursday.

Sandoval struck out three and walked one, but the one hit he did allow was a solo home run to Nationals INF prospect Yohandy Morales. Sandoval is working his way back from last year’s Tommy John surgery and also biceps tightness from the middle of May. He threw 18 of his 33 pitches for strikes and is still in the early stages of his return.
