Aramis Ramirez - 3B - Brewers

Aramis Ramirez has decided to continue his career beyond this season.

Ramirez has a $14 million mutual option for 2015 and has expressed in the past the possibility that he'll hang up his cleats after this season. However, given that the 36-year-old is in the midst of an All-Star season, it's no surprise that he's ultimately decided to keep going. The Brewers also seem likely to exercise their portion of Ramirez's option.

Ryan Zimmerman - OF - Nationals

Ryan Zimmerman (hamstring) is expected to be placed on the disabled list.

Zimmerman left Tuesday's game against the Rockies with a strained right hamstring. The Nationals are still awaiting MRI results before they determine how long the third baseman will be sidelined, but obviously they expect him to miss at least a couple weeks. Anthony Rendon will handle third base and Danny Espinosa will be at second while Zimmerman is on the shelf. Zach Walters is replacing Zimmerman on the roster.

Cliff Lee - S - Phillies

ESPN's Buster Olney was told by rival evaluators that the July 31 trade deadline doesn't apply to Cliff Lee because he'll clear waivers and can be dealt in August.

It makes sense, as Olney notes that Lee is making $25 million this season, is owed $25 million in 2015 and has a $12.5 million buyout on his $27.5 million club option for 2016. All told, he's guaranteed at least $48 million over the next 1 1/3 seasons, which will scare most every team off. Because he can be dealt in August, Lee will have more time to show he's healthy after missing two months due to a flexor strain in his left elbow.

Kyle Gibson - S - Twins

The Twins are hoping Kyle Gibson (back) will be ready to start on Saturday.

Gibson was scratched from Wednesday's scheduled out due to a stiff back, but the hope is that it's a short-term concern. If Gibson isn't ready, the Twins are expected to call up Logan Darnell to fill in.

Zach McAllister - S - Indians

The Indians are expected to recall Zach McAllister from Triple-A Columbus to start on Saturday versus the Royals.

McAllister was sent down before the All-Star break before returning last weekend to start during a doubleheader. He pitched well in that outing and has been great at Columbus of late but will have to keep it up in order to keep a rotation spot over Danny Salazar once Justin Masterson (knee) returns. Salazar will start on Sunday.

Jeff Francoeur - OF - Padres

MLB.com's Peter Gammons reports that the Padres are expected to promote Jeff Francoeur from Triple-A El Paso.

Frenchy has batted .294 with 15 homers and a .790 OPS at El Paso this season and has also done some pitching, posting a 4.26 ERA and 4/3 K/BB ratio over 6 1/3 relief innings. He figures to be used mostly -- if not exclusively -- as an outfielder with the Padres. It's a nice story, but Francoeur doesn't have any fantasy value.

Nolan Reimold - OF - Blue Jays

Nolan Reimold (calf) could be activated from the disabled list next week.

Reimold has been out since mid-July with a left calf strain, but it sounds like the oft-injured outfield could be back around the time he's eligible. He had four hits in 12 at-bats for the Jays before going on the DL.

Edwin Encarnacion - 1B - Blue Jays

FOX Sports' Ken Rosenthal reports that the Blue Jays think Edwin Encarnacion (quad) could be activated from the disabled list next week.

Encarnacion resumed taking batting practice and fielding ground balls this week and evidently did it with no complications. The slugger has been on the shelf since early July with a strained right quad but is poised to rejoin the Blue Jays' lineup soon as the club continues a playoff push.
