It’s a concerning development, but the decision appears precautionary in nature since the Blue Jays can hardly afford to take any chances that it snowballs into a larger issue. There should be some clarity on the 27-year-old impending free agent’s status at some point shortly. It’ll be Ernie Clement taking over at shortstop and batting leadoff during Monday’s series opener against the division-rival Yankees.

It’s notable that Atkins didn’t outright dismiss the possibility that last year’s first-round selection could wind up pitching in the majors at some point in the second half. Yesavage’s meteoric rise hasn’t slowed down at all since being promoted earlier this month to Double-A New Hampshire as he’s allowed just five runs with a 16/8 K/BB ratio over 11 2/3 innings (three starts). The dynamic 21-year-old has compiled a sparkling 2.45 ERA and 104/27 K/BB ratio across 62 1/3 innings (14 starts) this season across three minor-league levels.

The Jays had been calling the injury shoulder inflammation, though to be fair, that was the main issue that caused him to go on the IL weeks after he was hurt crashing into a wall in a game against the Angels. Santander is nearly ready to resume swinging now, potentially putting him in line to return right after the All-Star break.

García has made three rehab appearances at various levels and allowed one unearned run in 2 2/3 innings. He averaged 95.8 mph with his 12 fastballs for Buffalo on Sunday, putting him very close to his season average of 96.0 mph.

The Astros are saying it’s a really small fracture, and Peña might have a chance of playing once the 10 days are up. Still, they won’t know if that’s realistic until after he resumes swinging a bat, probably at the end of this week. If he feels OK swinging, then he could return pretty much immediately. For now, Mauricio Dubón will start at shortstop.

It only took the Astros three days to find a fracture this time, so they’re getting better. They’ll have to get by with Mauricio Dubón at shortstop until Peña is ready to return. No timetable was provided, but if the fracture is small enough, perhaps he could return right after the break.

After the Mariners scored a pair of runs in the top half of the 10th inning, Seager answered back with a 395-foot (106.2 mph EV) two-run blast off of Carlos Vargas that knotted things up at three runs apiece. That would wind up being his only hit in four at-bats on the afternoon, though he also worked a walk. The 31-year-old shortstop is now hitting .244/.342/.430 with 10 homers, 22 RBI and one stolen base through his first 52 games on the season.
