Garrett Mitchell Suffers Forearm Contusion on Sunday Night
Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Garrett Mitchell (forearm) was pulled from Sunday night's game early against the Atlanta Braves with a right-forearm contusion, according to Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. Mitchell was hit by a pitch in his right forearm in the fourth inning and was replaced in center field by Luis Lara the following inning. He avoided any significant damage to his forearm and should be considered day-to-day by fantasy managers. Before leaving early, Mitchell was hitless with a strikeout and the hit-by-pitch. With a scheduled day off coming for Milwaukee on Monday, the left-handed-hitting outfielder could be ready to go by Tuesday's series opener in New York against the Mets, although the Brew Crew will be facing left-hander Zac Thornton in that contest. Mitchell has a lengthy injury history in just his fifth MLB season, but he's played in a career-high 117 games in 2026 and entered Sunday's tilt with a .263/.359/.423 slash line, .782 OPS, nine homers, 54 RBI, 12 steals, and 54 runs scored in 427 plate appearances. The former UCLA star has hit .279 (22-for-79) against lefties, but with only one of his nine homers on the year. Mitchell also has just one homer since the All-Star break.

Diamondbacks Hoping Michael Soroka's IL Stint Won't be Long
The Arizona Diamondbacks placed right-hander Michael Soroka (arm) back on the 15-day injured list on Sunday with inflammation in his right arm, but the team is hopeful he'll be ready to return to their starting rotation when he's eligible, according to Alex Weiner of Arizona Sports. "He's going to hopefully be ready on Day 16. The plan is to get him a couple days down, get him back on the bump and miss as few days as possible," manager Torey Lovullo said. The move to put the 29-year-old back on the IL came after Soroka surrendered six runs and three walks in 3 1/3 innings pitched in his start on Saturday against the Cincinnati Reds. It is frustrating for fantasy managers after Soroka already missed two months with a glute injury, but the good news is he will be back to close out the 2026 campaign in September. In his three starts since returning from his glute injury on Aug. 10, Soroka allowed eight earned runs on 15 hits while walking seven and striking out 12 in 13 1/3 innings. Soroka was having a resurgent 2026 season before his glute injury in Arizona, and he is now 8-4 with a 3.40 ERA, 1.16 WHIP, and 91:24 K:BB in 95 1/3 frames across 18 starts.

Bryan Woo Encouraged After Throwing Bullpen Session
Seattle Mariners right-hander Bryan Woo (shoulder) said he is encouraged coming out of a bullpen session on Sunday, according to Adam Jude of The Seattle Times. Woo never thought his season was in jeopardy after being pushed back from his scheduled start against the Chicago Cubs this weekend, but he wants to be cautious about pushing through discomfort in his right shoulder. No decision has been made about when he will make his next start. The M's pulled the 26-year-old after just 75 pitches in his most recent start last Sunday against the division-rival Houston Astros, when he allowed only two earned runs with a walk and five strikeouts in six innings for his ninth win of the year. Woo allowed 10 earned runs in 10 innings to the Texas Rangers and Los Angeles Dodgers in his last two starts in July, but he has given up just two earned runs with three walks and 15 K's in his three starts so far in August. Seattle has an upcoming three-game series with the Philadelphia Phillies on Monday, followed by a three-game series next weekend in Toronto against the Jays.

Kyle Stowers Expected to Come Off Injured List on Monday
Miami Marlins outfielder Kyle Stowers (hamstring) is expected to be activated from the 10-day injured list on Monday, according to Isaac Azout of Fish on First. To make room for Stowers on the major-league roster, the Marlins are optioning Deyvison De Los Santos to the minors, according to a source. Even though Stowers did not go on a minor-league rehab assignment, he should be back in the team's starting nine for Monday's series opener at home against the visiting Boston Red Sox and left-hander Ranger Suarez. The 28-year-old left-handed-hitting outfielder last played for the Fish on Aug. 9 when he strained his left hamstring. The former second-rounder by the Baltimore Orioles in 2019 out of Stanford University will be returning to a .242/.327/.462 slash line with a .788 OPS, 16 home runs, 52 RBI, 44 runs scored, and a stolen base in 351 at-bats in his second full season with the Marlins. Stowers has not lived up to his breakout campaign from a year ago, when he hit .288 (115-for-399) with 25 home runs, 73 RBI, 61 runs scored, and five steals in 117 games played.
