9.6.26 Seattle Mariners: Injuries

The Seattle Mariners placed shortstop J.P. Crawford on the 10-day injured list with a right hand contusion after he was hit by a pitch last week against Detroit. Manager Dan Wilson said Crawford is still experiencing significant pain and will continue treatment during the team's road trip. Seattle recalled infielder Ryan Bliss from Triple-A Tacoma to fill the roster spot.

8.6.26 Chicago Cubs: Injuries

Chicago Cubs starter Jameson Taillon will be placed on the injured list after suffering a left hamstring strain during Sunday's 2-1 loss to the San Francisco Giants. The 34-year-old exited in the second inning and is scheduled for an MRI on Monday to assess the injury's severity. Taillon expressed optimism that the setback is not serious, but it adds to the Cubs' growing list of pitching injuries.

7.6.26 Milwaukee Brewers: Transfers

The Milwaukee Brewers acquired right-hander Joel Kuhnel from the Athletics for cash after pitcher Brian Fitzpatrick became the club's eighth pitcher on the injured list. Fitzpatrick suffered a left elbow injury and was diagnosed with a UCL strain, with further evaluation needed to determine whether rehabilitation or another Tommy John surgery is required. Kuhnel, 31, posted a 4.21 ERA and four saves in 25 appearances for the Athletics this season.

6.6.26 Milwaukee Brewers: Injuries

Milwaukee Brewers reliever Brian Fitzpatrick suffered a potentially serious left arm injury while throwing warmup pitches before the seventh inning of Friday's 9-7 win over the Colorado Rockies. Fitzpatrick, who had been called up from Triple-A earlier that day, had just completed a scoreless inning before exiting in pain. Manager Pat Murphy said the injury "doesn't look good," and Fitzpatrick is scheduled for an MRI.

5.6.26 NY Yankees: Injuries

Aaron Judge has been diagnosed with a stress fracture of the first rib on his right side and will miss significant time, but the New York Yankees expect him to return later this season. After undergoing multiple tests and evaluations, Judge avoided a more serious diagnosis such as thoracic outlet syndrome, which could have ended his year. The three-time AL MVP will be re-evaluated in four to six weeks as doctors monitor his healing.
