1B | Eric Hosmer | Kansas City Royals | Fantasy
Kansas City Royals manager Ned Yost moved 1B Eric Hosmer from third to sixth in the starting lineup because he wanted to take away some of the pressure Hosmer was under hitting third. "I'm just trying to put him in a position where the weight of the world is not on his shoulders, hitting in the three-spot, and just go from there," Yost said. "He'll gather it back. I don't like moving guys in the order if I can at all avoid it. But it just got to a point where we had to do it."
1B | Mauro Gomez | Boston Red Sox | Injury, Transaction, Fantasy

Shortstop
SS | Ian Desmond | Washington Nationals | Injury, Fantasy

Arizona Diamondbacks RP Takashi Saito (calf) tossed a scoreless inning with two strikeouts in the Arizona League Tuesday, July 17. SS John McDonald (oblique) continues to work out in Arizona and may begin a rehab assignment Friday, July 20. McDonald caught bronchitis during the All-Star break, which slowed his recovery temporarily.
SS | Willie Bloomquist | Arizona Diamondbacks | Fantasy
The Pittsburgh Pirates, Boston Red Sox and Detroit Tigers are among the teams looking at Arizona Diamondbacks SS Stephen Drew, according to major league sources. The BoSox would likely use Drew as a backup infielder, and the Tigers could start him at short or use him off the bench. Drew appears to be moving around well on his surgically repaired right ankle. The D-backs are unlikely to exercise his $10 million mutual option for the 2013 season. INFs Willie Bloomquist and John McDonald will go back to starting if Arizona deals Drew.
SS | Zack Cozart | Cincinnati Reds | Fantasy
Cincinnati Reds 3B Scott Rolen and SS Zack Cozart are both out of the lineup Thursday, July 19. Cozart is stuck in a 1-for-20 slump, and Rolen was receiving a regular day of rest. 3B Todd Frazier started at third and 3B Miguel Cairo moved to first base.

Cleveland Indians C Carlos Santana admits he was thinking too much during his first-half slump, and he has stopped worrying about his play, which began when he launched a three-run homer Wednesday, July 18. "I worry too much. I'm thinking too much," said Santana, who has tried to eliminate some excess body movement in his swing this season. "But this is something that happens in the game, for me, and for everybody. I feel strong and I feel stronger game by game."

The Toronto Blue Jays recalled OF Travis Snider from Triple-A Las Vegas.

OF | Jay Bruce | Cincinnati Reds | Fantasy
Cincinnati Reds OF Jay Bruce went 0-for-4 against the Arizona Diamondbacks Thursday, July 19, to extend his hitless streak to 18 at-bats.
OF | Dexter Fowler | Colorado Rockies | Fantasy
Colorado Rockies OF Dexter Fowler said hitting down in the eighth spot earlier this year taught him to be patient at the plate, something that he had lacked in his career up until that point. "I wasn't patient at the plate early in the year, but hitting eighth made me be, because you've got the pitcher behind you and you can't know if they're trying to work around you or go right at you," Fowler said. "I really don't think at the plate any more, I just go out and play." He's hitting .350 with six home runs and 19 RBIs since a Memorial Day doubleheader against the Houston Astros, where he returned to the leadoff spot.
OF | Carlos Quentin | San Diego Padres | Fantasy,
The San Diego Padres are trying to sign both OF Carlos Quentin and RP Huston Street to long-term deals and will likely make a push to do so before the July 31 non-waiver trade deadline. Both players have indicated that they would like to remain in San Diego amid trade rumors. Both players can become free agents after this season. Neither player will be traded before contract talks are complete. With the team on the verge of being sold to the Fowler group for close to $800 million, there is no guarantee the Friars can lock up both players. The New York Mets, San Francisco Giants and Chicago White Sox have shown interest in Street, and the Cincinnati Reds, Cleveland Indians, Pittsburgh Pirates and others are in on Quentin.
OF | B.J. Upton | Tampa Bay Rays | Fantasy
Tampa Bay Rays OF B.J. Upton went 3-for-5 with three RBIs against the Cleveland Indians Thursday, July 19.

OF | Jayson Werth | Washington Nationals | Injury, Fantasy
Washington Nationals OF Jayson Werth (wrist) took batting practice for the second straight day Thursday, July 19, and he's expected to begin a rehab assignment with Single-A Potomac in the next couple of days. General manager Mike Rizzo said Werth will likely set his own rehab schedule, and the team is targeting the first week of August for his return. "He has full range of motion in the wrist and it's just the repetition of it," Rizzo said. "The beginning of the batting practice round was always more impressive than the tail end of it because of the fatigue of the wrist. So we need for him to build up stamina in the wrist and be able to take good, full swings and be at 100 percent strength when he gets out there and is ready to play in games."
OF | Andy Dirks | Detroit Tigers | Injury, Fantasy
Detroit Tigers OF Andy Dirks (Achilles') had more soreness in his Achilles' after a workout Tuesday, July 17, and he's been temporarily shut down. He has stopped with baseball activities but isn't expected to be shut down for long. Dirks will require an extended rehab assignment before returning to the club.
OF | Scott Hairston | New York Mets | Fantasy,
The New York Mets are in the midst of a six-game losing streak, but general manager Sandy Alderson and the front office won't overpay in a trade to bolster their struggling bullpen. "We're watching every day the same thing people are," assistant GM John Ricco said. "But you also can't fool yourself into thinking that there's one guy that is going to be the be-all and end-all solution to all of our problems. You can fall into that trap and make some big mistakes. It's one of the good things about having an experienced guy like Sandy. He's been down this road before." The Mets aren't willing to trade any of their prospects that could have an impact in 2013 or 2014. OF Scott Hairston and RP Tim Byrdak may be the team's most marketable players at this time.
OF | Desmond Jennings | Tampa Bay Rays | Fantasy
Tampa Bay Rays OF Desmond Jennings has hit .333 with a home run and seven RBIs since July 8 while hitting seventh in the batting order. He was hitting only .232 with a .307 on-base percentage out of the leadoff spot. Manager Joe Maddon plans to put Jennings back near the top of the order later this year.
OF | Justin Upton | Arizona Diamondbacks | Fantasy,
Some think Arizona Diamondbacks OF Justin Upton will be dealt within the next 13 days or after the season, and the Seattle Mariners have shown interest. However, they aren't willing to give up 2B Dustin Ackley or 3B Kyle Seager or their trio of pitching prospects, SPs Danny Hultzen, Taijuan Walker or James Paxton.

SP | Max Scherzer | Detroit Tigers | Fantasy,

The Chicago Cubs acquired P Justin Germano from the Boston Red Sox Thursday, July, 19, in exchange for cash considerations. RP Jairo Asencio was designated for assignment to make room for Germano. SP Casey Coleman was scratched from his start with Triple-A Iowa, meaning he's likely to be recalled.
SP | James Shields | Tampa Bay Rays | Fantasy,
Tampa Bay Rays SP James Shields said he has made some very minor adjustments in the midst of a rough stretch that has seen him allow 45 hits over his last four stars. He leads the league in hits allowed this year with 146. The only thing he did differently during his bullpen session this week was throw 20 more pitches because he felt good. "If I stick with my routine, I think it's eventually going to catch up with me," Shields said. "Normally when you're going through a stretch like I'm going through right now, you see something very dramatic. But we didn't really see anything dramatic. It's a matter of just executing my pitches and going deep into the game and getting a win," Shields said.
SP | David Price | Tampa Bay Rays | Fantasy,
Tampa Bay Rays SP David Price pitched seven scoreless innings while allowing two hits against the Cleveland Indians Thursday, July 19, to pick up his 13th win of the season. He struck out seven batters and walked three in the game. Price has won his last five decisions.

The Boston Red Sox are no longer in the mix to acquire Chicago Cubs SP Ryan Dempster but are in the mix for Cubs SP Matt Garza.
SP | Cole Hamels | Philadelphia Phillies | Fantasy,

SP | Erasmo Ramirez | Seattle Mariners | Injury, Fantasy,

SP | Josh Collmenter | Arizona Diamondbacks | Fantasy,
Arizona Diamondbacks SP Josh Collmenter will return to the rotation for the time being and start against the Houston Astros Sunday, July 22. Manager Kirk Gibson said Collmenter could pitch out of the bullpen if the situation calls for it before his next start. "Right now, Collmenter is our long guy in all reality, but he's scheduled to pitch Sunday," Gibson said. "If we really got in a bind, he wouldn't be an early long guy right now like he'd normally be, but if we got into a really extended game, I'd use him if we needed an extra pitcher. But right now, our bullpen is very rested and in good shape."
SP | Roberto Hernandez | Cleveland Indians | Fantasy,
Cleveland Indians SP Roberto Hernandez is expected to receive a new visa soon, which would allow him to return to the United States, according to multiple sources. "Things are moving forward," said a person with knowledge of the situation. "It's looking a lot better right now." The team is hoping he won't face a suspension from the league when he returns.
SP | Chris Sale | Chicago White Sox | Fantasy,
The Chicago White Sox, who are doing their part to limit the wear and tear on SP Chris Sale, fully believe that the schedule they create for him will allow him to pitch through the end of the regular season as the team attempts to make the playoffs. Sale plans to go through rigorous between-starts workouts to keep his body fit as the season wears on. He's also embracing the pitch-to-contact mentality in order to preserve pitches down the stretch.
SP | Doug Fister | Detroit Tigers | Injury, Fantasy,
Detroit Tigers SP Doug Fister (chest) was removed from his start after his chest stiffened up in the eighth inning against the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim Wednesday, July 18. Fister was hit in the chest by a line drive in the seventh inning. "He's fine. I was just talking to him (and) he's a little sore, but he's all right," manager Jim Leyland said. "I got nervous because (I thought) maybe it was the oblique thing, but it wasn't."
SP | Drew Smyly | Detroit Tigers | Injury, Fantasy,
Detroit Tigers SP Drew Smyly (intercostals) will miss his second straight start Sunday, July 22, as he's on the disabled list with a right intercostals strain. The team doesn't know if Smyly will need a short rehab assignment, but it's looking more likely.
SP | Nick Blackburn | Minnesota Twins | Fantasy,
Minnesota Twins SP Nick Blackburn made adjustments while pitching for Triple-A Rochester for two weeks after Rochester pitching coach Bobby Cuellar helped Blackburn focus on calming his front side during his delivery. Blackburn was able to throw from the right arm slot and improve his command, and he gave up just one earned run in 15 innings in his two starts with Rochester. "Now when I'm missing with pitches, I'm missing in good locations as opposed to right over the middle of the plate," Blackburn said. "It just seems more natural for me than what I was doing earlier in the season." He'll make the start against the Kansas City Royals Friday, July 20.
SP | Eric Stults | San Diego Padres | Injury, Fantasy,
San Diego Padres SP Eric Stults (lat) gave up one run and four hits in four innings with Triple-A Tucson Wednesday, July 18, walking two and striking out seven in his second rehab start.
SP | Stephen Strasburg | Washington Nationals | Fantasy,
Updating a previous report, Washington Nationals general manager Mike Rizzo said when SP Stephen Strasburg is shut down later this year, the team won't return for a possible playoff run. "When it happens, Stephen will not pitch again until spring training (in 2013)," Rizzo said. "We tried something similar with Zimmermann last year and he just could not get going again. We won't make the same mistake."
Relief Pitcher
RP | Cody Allen | Cleveland Indians | Transaction,
The Cleveland Indians recalled P Cody Allen from Triple-A Columbus Thursday, July 19. He had a 1.87 ERA in 31 games with Single-A Carolina, Double-A Akron and Columbus this year.

RP | Drew Storen | Washington Nationals | Fantasy,
Washington Nationals RP Drew Storen went through the middle of the New York Mets' order in just nine pitches in his first action of the season Thursday, July 19, showing off his new and improved sinker. "That's actually something I've been working on, something I feel has improved a lot. Last year, I had good movement on my two-seam when I did throw it. But it faded. Now I feel like I get a little more depth to it," Storen said. He threw the sinker seven out of his nine pitches, and he threw no four-seamers. The Nationals plan to ease Storen into the back end of the bullpen as he goes.
RP | Craig Kimbrel | Atlanta Braves | Fantasy,

RP | John Axford | Milwaukee Brewers | Fantasy,
The Milwaukee Brewers have made it clear that they have every intention of returning RP John Axford to the closer role as soon as possible. "The idea is to get him straightened out pretty quick. We'll just let it play itself out. We still have confidence in his arm strength. He still has a lot of strikeouts per nine innings (12.4). It's the highest of his career," general manager Doug Melvin said.
RP | Rafael Perez | Cleveland Indians | Injury,
Cleveland Indians RP Rafael Perez (lat) tossed a shutout inning with one strikeout with Triple-A Columbus Wednesday, July 18. He will throw a bullpen session Friday, July 20, before continuing his rehab assignment Monday, July 23.

The New York Mets "haven't been very aggressive" in pursuing Houston Astros RP Brett Myers.
RP | Nick Masset | Cincinnati Reds | Injury,

RP | J.J. Putz | Arizona Diamondbacks | Fantasy,

RP | Jonathan Broxton | Kansas City Royals | Fantasy,
The Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim are interested in trading for relief pitching as well as starting pitching, and they've talked to the Washington Nationals and could consider dealing for Kansas City Royals RP Jonathan Broxton. The Angels are willing to move OF Peter Bourjos to grab a reliever to help out their bullpen. However, general manager Jerry Dipoto continues to say Bourjos isn't going anywhere. If the Angels are serious about a reliever, 1B Kendrys Morales or SP Garrett Richards could become expendable, too.
