Outfielder Johnny Field was sent down.The 35-year-old Santana lex Reyes Jersey , who won 16 games last year, is scheduled to see a hand specialist on Tuesday about recurring finger discomfort that has sidelined him for much of the season.“I’m not sure where it’s going to go from here, we just thought it made sense at this time rather than run him back out there on Tuesday,” manager Paul Molitor said.Santana opened the season on the DL after undergoing surgery on his right middle finger in February. He was reinstated on July 25 and went 0-1 with an 8.03 ERA in 24 2/3 innings over five starts.“It’s very tough for me and obviously for the team because instead of help the team you hurt the team because you don’t locate your fastball where you want it, or your slider where you want it, and then it’s difficult Evan Longoria Jersey ,” Santana said. “Now I’m just trying to get ready and move on.”Santana said he hasn’t spoken recently to his surgeons, but added, “The last time I saw him in New York, he told me the pain will go away. Still here.”Grossman was sidelined by a strained hamstring. He is batting .253 with four homers and 34 RBIs in 92 games.Top prospect Stephen Gonsalves also was in Minnesota’s clubhouse on Sunday. He is slated to start Monday against the Chicago White Sox. Right-hander Tyler Duffey was optioned to Rochester after Sunday’s win to make room for Gonsalves. The Houston Astros placed starting pitcher Charlie Morton on the 10-day disabled list with a shoulder issue, while reliever Chris Devenski was activated, according to Brian McTaggart of MLB.com.The 34-year-old Morton is in the midst of a career season Dustin McGowan Jersey , having been named to his first All-Star Game this year. Morton is 13-3 with a 3.14 ERA and has 185 strikeouts in 152 innings pitched, and he's certainly in the running for his first American League Cy Young Award.Entering play on Wednesday, Houston was 1.5 games up on the Oakland Athletics for the AL West lead. The defending World Champions will cruise to another postseason berth, but the only question is if they'll be forced to play in the single elimination Wild Card game.advertising Credit: Troy Taormina-USA TODAY SportsLosing Morton for the time being hurts the Astros, but they still own baseball's best rotation and are built to get by without him. Justin Verlander (13-8 with a 2.72 ERA), Gerrit Cole (12-5 with a 2.85 ERA) http://www.raysfanproshop.com/authentic-evan-longoria-jersey , Dallas Keuchel (10-10 with a 3.54 ERA), and Lance McCullers Jr. (10-6, 3.93 ERA), are all enjoying All-Star-like seasons. Houston will be fine without Morton for the time being.Morton and Keuchel are both set to hit the free agent market in the winter, and the former has picked the perfect time to pitch a career season. With a strong showing in the postseason, Morton will certainly set himself up to be one of the highest-paid pitchers in baseball during the winter.advertisingThe Astros just need to hope that Morton's shoulder injury won't last long-term Adeiny Hechavarria Jersey , and that he'll be at full health in the postseason. The AL is loaded with elite teams, but none of them (Oakland, Boston, Cleveland or New York), have the rotation depth and talent that the Astros boast.A healthy Morton makes the Astros that much more dangerous, and it would put them in position to successfully defend that World Series.NEXT: PLAYERS THESE MLB TEAMS SHOULD HAVE NEVER TRADED
