Dodgers transfer pitcher Tyler Glasnow to 60-day injured list and claim catcher Chuckie Robinson
Los Angeles Dodgers starter Tyler Glasnow has been transferred to the 60-day injured list.
The team made the move Saturday when catcher Chuckie Robinson was claimed off waivers. The 30-year-old was designated for assignment this week by the Angels.
Glasnow first went on the 15-day IL on April 28 with right shoulder inflammation. With the current move, the right-hander would be eligible to return in late June. He threw his first bullpen session last week.
Glasnow has made five starts this season, going 1-0 with a 4.50 ERA in 18 innings. His first season with the Dodgers was cut short last year because of right elbow tendinitis.
Robinson was batting .272 with one home run and 18 RBIs with Triple-A Salt Lake City. He debuted in the majors with Cincinnati, playing 25 games and hitting two homers and driving in five runs. He also spent time with the Chicago White Sox last year.
Robinson has a .992 fielding percentage and is 12-for-48 in runners caught stealing.

Who's The Next Phillies Prospect To Get The Call? Maybe Justin Crawford
Justin Crawford could be the Phillies' next call-up from the minots. (Photo by Mike Carlson/MLB ... More Photos via Getty Images) It looks like the Phillies are ready to dig into their farm system after calling up pitching prospects, Mick Abel and Seth Johnson, on Sunday. Abel, who aced his audition on May 18 with six-shutout innings against the Pirates in a spot start, will get slotted into the rotation while Johnson could get high-leverage innings for a depleted bullpen that's gasping after losing Jose Alvarado to an 80-game PED suspension. So who will be the next Phillies prospect to get the call? How about Justin Crawford? The 21-year-old kid is peaking right now. In his last 21 games, Crawford is hitting .363 with 11 stolen bases. And overall against advanced pitching at Triple-A this season, he boasts a .338 average with 20 swiped bags while playing supreme defense in the outfield. Check out this sliding beaut: Crawford's skeptics, however, will point to an elevated ground-ball rate (63.8%) and his next-to-nil power (only one home run) as reasons to leave him in the minors. But Crawford, a former first-round pick in 2022, is hardly the second-coming of slap-hitting Juan Pierre. His line-drive rate at 22.7% is the highest of his minor-league career, and his max-exit velocity (110.7 mph) tops that of Phillies centerfielder Brandon Marsh (108.2 mph) for the season. In 2025, another facet to Crawford's game is evolving: his patience at the plate. He's walking 10.7% of the time, up from 6.1% against Double-A pitching last year, boosting his on-base percentage to an elite level at .407. Yes, it's a simple equation: Crawford's superior on-base skills + his blazing speed = immense value for the Phillies. Especially considering that Phils' outfielders are providing so little offense. There is a blockade to Crawford's promotion: The team has not one but two centerfielders in the Marsh-Johan Rojas platoon. Phillies president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski must know neither Marsh nor Rojas is the answer in center and that Crawford could eliminate the need for a CF platoon if his unbelievable splits carry over to the big leagues. The left-handed-hitting Crawford is batting .306 against right-handers and .455 against lefties this season. And the kid uses all fields; check out this opposite-field flare: For the immediate future, it seems that only an injury to an outfielder would initiate Crawford's call-up. Or they could possibly demote reserve OF Weston Wilson to clear space for Crawford, but that probably won't happen because Wilson is one of the few right-handed hitters on the bench. But the Phillies are skidding, losing four in a row. And Dombrowski may figure out a way to get Crawford on the big club. When Phils called up Abel and Johnson, it's obvious the team wants to infuse the pitching ranks with some youth. And if they're looking to do the same with the lineup, it's easy to see the next move: Call up Crawford to provide a spark.

David Ortiz on whether Rafael Devers should play first base for Red Sox: 'He's doing great as the DH'
Boston Red Sox legend David Ortiz knows what it's like to be a designated hitter for one of MLB's premier franchises. Ortiz didn't fully blossom until getting to the Red Sox in 2003. There, he developed into one of the best designated hitters in MLB history. So, there's no better person to weigh in on the drama between the team and star hitter Rafael Devers. After asking Devers to become the team's full-time designated hitter in the offseason, the Red Sox changed course, and asked if Devers would play first base following Tristan Casas' brutal knee injury. Devers declined, and had a few choice words to say about how the Red Sox's front office approached the situation. Advertisement While Ortiz did not weigh in on Devers' issues with the front office, the Hall of Famer agreed with Devers' decision to stick it out at DH, according to the Associated Press. "He's doing great as the DH. They asked for it, and he's doing great as the DH," Ortiz said. "Once [the] Casas situation goes down ... In people's minds, it was: 'Devers goes to first and [Masataka] Yoshida goes to DH and we are a better team'. Yeah, that's what you put in your mind. But guess what? The kid was asked in a spring training to just hit and now all of a sudden you want to switch him over. It takes time." After a slow start, Devers has excelled in his new position. The slugger is hitting .286/.408/.515, with 12 home runs, in 61 games. Devers' 156 wRC+, an advanced stat that measures a player's offensive performance, is a career-high. Despite starting the season 0-for-21 at the plate, he's now experiencing the best offensive season of his career. Devers' performance has mostly quieted talk about another position change. While the Red Sox could hypothetically put out a better lineup if Devers were to play first base, why mess with something that's going well? That's essentially the argument Ortiz made. While Devers has performed well, the Red Sox haven't lived up to expectations yet. The team sits at 29-32 entering play Monday, good for fourth place in the American League East. The ship appears to have sailed on Devers playing the field again, though those calls could get louder should the team continue to scuffle late into the summer.
