Let's dive into everything baseball related from Tuesday, May 13th. We'll start it off as always with the transactions,

injuries, news and notes from around the league and kick things off with the bad news. As shortstop,

Corey Seeger was placed on the 10-day IL with the hamstring strain. This is already his second stint on the IL with the hamstring strain.

What does he have one of these every month or something?

It's not like it's his birthday or something because you have one of those every month, right?

Seeger missed less than two weeks last time, but this time it's unclear how long Seeger's going to be out.

And expect it to be longer than last time, considering it's an injury to the same spot.

So Seeger probably out more than two weeks.

Ezekiel Duran had been filling in at shortstop over the past couple of days, but I think

Josh Smith is likely to see the most time at shortstop.

He's just been injured for the past couple of days.

It's minor, so I think he should be in the lineup at shortstop today, and that

affords Jake Berger everyday playing time at first base. He had been platooning with Josh, Josh

Smith over there, but obviously this is only temporary until Siga returns. Kyle Higigashioca was

activated from the 10-day IL in a corresponding move. He had been out for 13 days with an intercostal strain.

He'll be on the short side of a platoon at DH.
