There's a rumor that Young pitcher Gordon Graceffo (24) is transitioning from a minor league starter to a major league bullpen member for tonight's game
To make space for the young player, Steven Matz is going on the injured list (longer-term injury).
Graceffo has been doing well in the minors with an ERA of 3.84 (Earned Run Average, a lower number is better for pitchers).
Philadelphia Phillies:
Another MLB rumor is that there are injury problems for two key players:
Bryce Harper who is the star player hurt his left hamstring during the last play of yesterday's game. They are not aware about the intensity of the injury.
Kyle Schwarber (leadoff hitter) left the game because his left groin feels tight.
The Phillies will hopefully give an update on their health later today.
San Francisco Giants:
A Great news for the Giants! is that LaMonte Wade Jr. (first baseman) is coming back from injury tonight to play against the Dodgers. He's been out since late May with a hurt in his hamstring.
The Giants haven't been doing well while he's been out (they won 11 games and lost 16).
LaMonte started the season strong with a high batting average (.333) and good hitting statistics.
The Giants will make some roster changes to fit him back in, and he's expected to help their batting against right-handed pitchers.
