Nico Hoerner went 0-for-4 in his second straight hitless game against the Giants on Saturday.

Hoerner was flying high two months ago, opening the season with a .326 average, four homers and 22 RBI in his first 23 games. Since Apr. 22, however, he’s come in at .201 with no homers and 11 RBI in 41 games, even though he’s struck out just 10 times in 185 plate appearances. He’ll bounce back, but it just isn’t easy being a major league hitter these days.

Dodgers placed RHP Brock Stewart on the 15-day injured list with a right shoulder strain.

Dodgers’ manager Dave Roberts told reporters on Friday that Stewart is dealing with a minor shoulder issue and isn’t expected to be sidelined for much longer than the minimum stint on the injured list. Cole Irvin was promoted from Triple-A Oklahoma City in a corresponding move on Friday to take his place in the Dodgers’ bullpen.

Tigers optioned RHP Brenan Hanifee to Triple-A Toledo.

Hanifee has posted a 3.98 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and an 8/6 K/BB ratio across 20 1/3 innings in 21 appearances with the Tigers this season. He’ll head out to make room for Enmanuel De Jesus in the club’s bullpen as the Tigers wanted an extra left-hander to battle the Athletics over the weekend. Hanifee should get another chance with the big league club before the summer is through.

With J.P. Crawford (wrist) landing on the injured list on Friday, Rivas will have another opportunity to show the Mariners what he can do in a reserve role. The 28-year-old has hit .131/.263/.172 with zero homers and seven RBI in 120 plate appearances with the M’s this season.

Mariners placed INF J.P. Crawford on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to July 30, with left wrist inflammation.

This move doesn’t come as a major surprise as Crawford missed the team’s previous two games with the injury and there were indications that a stint on the injured list was coming if he wasn’t ready to go by Friday. Leo Rivas was recalled from Triple-A Tacoma in a corresponding move.

Tigers designated RHP Andre Granillo for assignment.

The 26-year-old hurler was claimed off of waivers from the Nationals just prior to the All-Star break, but the Tigers needed the 40-man roster spot for the arrival of Max Clark on Friday. It’s possible that Granillo will attract interest on waivers once again.

As expected, Clark joins the Tigers for Friday’s series opener against the Athletics. The 21-year-old outfielder has hit .277/.368/.427 with 10 homers and 21 stolen bases over 89 games at the Triple-A level this season. His dynamic skillset makes him an intriguing mixed league fantasy option right out of the gate.
