Jae-gyun Hwang - 3B - Giants

Giants purchased the contract of 3B Jae-gyun Hwang from Triple-A Sacramento.

Hwang was going to use the opt-out clause in his minor league contract if he wasn't promoted by July 1, but the Giants took care of that situation. The 29-year-old has batted .287/.331/.466 with six homers, 43 RBI, and five steals through 67 games with Sacramento this season. There wouldn't appear to be many at-bats for him with Eduardo Nunez (hamstring) due back Friday, Hwang will try to play his way into some starts.

DJ LeMahieu - 2B - Rockies

DJ LeMahieu (groin) is not in the Rockies' lineup Wednesday.

He's on the lineup sheet among the team's reserves, though, so it appears LeMahieu will avoid the disabled list for the time being. He exited Tuesday's game with a cramp in his right groin. Pat Valaika is handing second base Wednesday.

Howie Kendrick - OF - Phillies

Howie Kendrick (hamstring) is not in the Phillies' lineup Wednesday.

Kendrick started Tuesday's game in the designated hitter spot after missing five contests with a strained left hamstring, but his hammy is clearly still bothering him. Whether the Phils are considering a disabled list stint is unclear at this point. Ty Kelly is starting at second base Wednesday.

Drew Smyly - S - Mariners

Drew Smyly (elbow) will undergo season-ending Tommy John surgery.

The operation will be performed on July 6 by Dr. James Andrews in Birmingham, Alabama. Smyly has been out all season with a strained flexor bundle in his pitching elbow, and a recent setback apparently involved the tearing of his ulnar collateral ligament. The left-hander will likely be sidelined at least until the second half of nexst season. Smyly is under team control for 2018, but he'll be an obvious non-tender candidate this winter.

Chris Heisey - OF - Nationals

Chris Heisey (biceps) is just a few days away from resuming a rehab assignment.

Heisey had to be pulled off his rehab assignment earlier this month after having a setback, but Nationals manager Dusty Baker said Tuesday that the outfielder is "feeling better." Heisey is attempting to play through a torn right biceps tendon.

Shawn Kelley - R - Nationals

Shawn Kelley (trapezius) resumed a throwing program on Monday.

Kelley was placed on the disabled list a week and a half ago due to a strained right trapezius muscle. A timetable for his return hasn't been revealed yet, but he would seem to have a chance to make it back before the All-Star break.

Koda Glover - R - Nationals

Koda Glover (back) has yet to resume a throwing program.

It looked at the time a little over two weeks ago when Glover was placed on the disabled list that his absence would be a short one, but his recovery from a lower back injury is coming along more slowly than expected. At this point, a return before the All-Star break doesn't appear very likely. Glover probably would've gotten his closer job back if his absence was brief and it's still possible he could. However, it's looking like the Nationals might have already traded for a ninth-inning man by the time Glover makes it back.

Jayson Werth - OF - Nationals

Jayson Werth (foot) went through portions of the Nationals' pre-game workouts on Tuesday.

It's the first time he's done so since he landed on the disabled list at the beginning of June. Werth recently begun taking some light swings, although he can't take batting practice on the field yet and has been careful not to put too much weight on his ailing left foot. He's multiple weeks away from a return.
