    Brewers placed RHP Coleman Crow on the 15-day injured list, retroactive to June 10, with a right forearm flexor strain.

    That certainly doesn’t sound good, as forearm flexor strains are often precursors to elbow issues. No word yet on the severity of the issue or how long the Brewers expect the 25-year-old hurler to be sidelined for. Craig Yoho was recalled from Triple-A Nashville in a corresponding move on Friday.

    Gerrit Cole will start for the Yankees in Friday night’s second half opener against the Dodgers.

    Cole will be followed by Ryan Weathers on Saturday and Cam Schlittler on Sunday. The 35-year-old hurler had a solid first half in his return from Tommy John surgery, posting a 4.04 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and a 47/11 K/BB ratio over 49 innings of work through his first nine starts.

    According to Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic, the Diamondbacks plan to promote Tyler Locklear from Triple-A Reno prior to Friday’s second-half opener.

    He’ll take the roster spot that was vacated when Tommy Troy (shoulder) landed on the injured list. Lockler, 25, has slashed an impressive .313/.394/.502 with eight homers and 36 RBI in 241 plate appearances over 54 games at Triple-A Reno this season. He should get an opportunity to see regular action at first base and could make for an interesting deep league or NL-only pickup.

    Roki Sasaki will start the Dodgers’ second half opener against the Yankees on Friday evening in New York.

    He’ll be followed by Emmet Sheehan on Saturday and Yoshinobu Yamamoto on Sunday. The Dodgers have not announced when Shohei Ohtani will return to the rotation. That makes it likely that it’ll be Justin Wrobleski and Eric Lauer in some order for the first two games against the Phillies in Philadelphia to open next week.

    Justin Crawford (knee) is batting ninth for the Phillies on Thursday.

    He missed Friday and Saturday with the injury before the All-Star break, and sat Sunday as well though he debatably wouldn’t have played against a left-handed starter either way. There’s no real fantasy value for Crawford at this point as he’s hitting just .263/.312/.353 with 12 stolen bases, but it’s good to see him back in the lineup.

    Bo Bichette (leg) is batting third for the Mets in Thursday’s game against the Phillies.

    He was used as a pinch-hitter on Saturday and Sunday while resting ahead of the second half, but Bichette looks to be full go coming off the layoff.

    Bryce Miller will start Friday’s game against the Giants.

    The Mariners will open the second half with Miller on Friday, Bryan Woo on Saturday, and Logan Gilbert on Sunday. All three of them have been gifted a good matchup against a Giants team that has struggled at the plate this year.

    Cade Cavalli will start Friday’s game against the Athletics.

    The Nationals will open the second half with Cavalli on the mound. He’ll be followed by Zack Littell (who has been opened for recently) on Saturday. and Foster Griffin on Sunday. Cavalli’s first half ended with a 3.83 ERA and 110 strikeouts in 98 2/3 innings. He’s been going deeper into starts lately and is a viable 12-team starter against West Sacramento on Friday.

    Phillies recalled RHP Seth Johnson from Triple-A Lehigh Valley.

    He has a 7.15 ERA in 11 1/3 innings this year and will likely provide some low-leverage relief help in the short-term while the Phillies try to find a new way to address Brad Keller’s injury going forward.

    Phillies placed RHP Brad Keller on the 15-day injured list retroactive to July 13 with a right elbow UCL tear.

    It’s a huge blow for Philadelphia’s bullpen depth and they’ll undoubtedly be looking to add at the deadline as Keller is likely to miss well into next season. Keller pitched in just one game after dealing with forearm tendinitis. He finishes his age-30 season with a 4.02 ERA in 31 1/3 innings pitched. He’s due $13 million next season from the Phillies.

    Pirates acquired OF Robert Hassell III from the Nationals for a player to be named later or cash considerations.

    Hassell was outrighted off the 40-man roster on Sunday, so he won’t cost a 40-man roster spot for the Pirates. He’s hit just .215/.304/.289 with two homers in 258 plate appearances at Triple-A Rochester. The Pirates will likely see if some time in Indianapolis will bring his bat back to life.
