Tampa Bay included outfielder Jose Siri, who missed the final three weeks with a broken hand. He then went 2-2 with a 7.96 ERA in his next five starts and was dropped from the Phillies' rotation. Texas said Hernández has a right shoulder injury and included Bush, who hasn't pitched a big league game since June 30 for Milwaukee. The 37-year-old right-hander Bush is the only player on the Rangers' roster who was also part of the 2016 team that was swept by the Rays. He had surgery in 2018 to repair and reinforce the partially torn ulnar collateral ligament in hopes of avoiding Tommy John surgery.

SAN DIEGO (AP) — Manager Bob Melvin's job appears to be safe with the underwhelming San Diego Padres after owner Peter Seidler said in a statement Monday morning that the current leadership team “continues to have my full support.”The announcement came less than 24 hours after the Padres finished the most disappointing season in franchise history at 82-80. There have been numerous reports of a fractured relationship between Melvin, who finished his second season with San Diego and 20th overall as a big league manager, and general manager A.J. “We entered 2023 with expectations that we would build on last year's NLCS appearance and contend for a World Series championship,” Seidler said in the statement. The Padres organization will learn from this season and emerge in 2024 with the pieces in place to compete for San Diego's first World Series title. The Padres struggled offensively despite having a lineup highlighted by stars Manny Machado, Fernando Tatis Jr., Juan Soto and Xander Bogaerts.

PITTSBURGH (AP) — The Miami Marlins' improbable September push will carry into October. Puk (7-5) and seven other relievers kept the Pirates in check, rendering any scoreboard-watching pointless. Miami began the day with its magic number whittled to one following another late comeback victory on Friday night. Miami used a 17-9 September surge to vault over San Francisco, Chicago and surprising Cincinnati in the standings. It's unclear whether the Marlins will have to return to New York on Monday to finish a suspended game against the New York Mets.

September 26 - Two teams taking different approaches to the final week of the regular season meet again Tuesday night when the visiting San Diego Padres continue a three-game series against the San Francisco Giants. The Giants (78-79) moved a game ahead of the Padres (77-80) in the National League wild-card chase with a come-from-behind, 2-1 triumph in the series opener Monday night. The best San Diego, which is 5 1/2 back, can do at this point is tie for the final spot. The 33-year-old veteran has helped lead San Diego's late-season surge by pitching well in his past seven starts, going 3-1 with a 2.90 ERA. The 33-year-old has gone 3-2 with a 2.52 ERA in 15 career head-to-heads, including four starts, against the Giants.

Political Cartoons View All 1171 ImagesHere is some of the history, process and cost when it comes to MLB expansion. In 1977, MLB went to 26 teams, adding the Seattle Mariners and Toronto Blue Jays. For a reference point, the move to 30 teams started with the formation of an MLB expansion committee in March 1994. The Diamondbacks and Rays both paid $130 million to enter MLB in 1998 while the Marlins and Rockies paid $95 million in 1993. Back in 1977, the Blue Jays ($7 million) and Mariners ($6.5 million) paid even less.

[1/41] Aug 6, 2023; San Diego, California, USA; Los Angeles Dodgers left fielder Enrique Hernandez (8) hits an RBI double against the San Diego Padres during the ninth inning at Petco Park. But the Dodgers second baseman went the other way on an 0-2 fastball, just reaching the seats in right for his fifth homer. Enrique Hernandez opened the Dodgers' second with a single and moved to third on a one-out single by Miguel Rojas. But the Dodgers appealed and Hernandez was ruled safe because Sanchez blocked the plate before he had the ball -- making it 3-0. The Padres cut the deficit to 6-2 when Jake Cronenworth hit his ninth homer of the season off Ryan Brasier in the seventh.
