Hopefully everything is okay with Trayce, but it’s good to know he’ll be back with the team tomorrow.

As for today, Miguel Vargas will get another opportunity to contribute, as he makes one last push for a spot on the postseason roster. Vargas is 7-39 (.179) on the year with one home run and five runs batted in. But he does have four hits across his last four starts.
