Here are three things around the baseball world well be tracking today 1. Bichette return looming? Blue Jays shortstop was Eric Bledsoe Jersey slated to begin a minor league rehab a signment with Triple-A Buffalo last night, slotting in as the designated hitter, but that contest was rained out. TSNs Scott Mitchell that the plan had been for Bichette to DH on Tuesday and play shortstop Wednesday, with a Friday return in Cincinnati po sible. The Jays are off tomorrow, while their Triple-A club now has games scheduled both today and tomorrow. Bichette could still DH today, play shortstop tomorrow, and technically return as soon as Friday. The Jays will evaluate Bichette following todays DH appearance but still hope to get him into a game at shortstop before reinstating him, per Mitchell. The 25-year-old Bichette is enjoying an excellent season at the plate, hitting .321/.352/.494 with 17 home runs, but hes been out since July 31 due to patellar tendinitis in his right knee. 2. Andersons suspension appeal: White Sox shortstop is following the benches-clearing brawl that began when Anderson and Guardians third baseman got into a fist fight following the latters slide into second base. Jim Bowden of The Athletic that Andersons appeal is scheduled for tomorrow, barring a settlement at some point today. Within the next day then, we should know whether Anderson will serve that full six-game ban or perhaps a reduced punishment. The two-time All-Star and 2019 AL batting champion is having the worst season of his career at the plate (.240/.285/.286), although in 103 plate appearances since the All-Star break hes posted a .290/.359/.355 batting line. 3. Dodgers going for 10 in a row: Earlier this season, it looked as though the Dodgers might be dethroned in the NL West, but their recent play has once again made them a commanding favorite to win their 10th division title 11 years. Theyll send to the mound tonight against the Brewers as they seek their 10th straight victory the longest active win streak in Major League Baseball at the moment. Kershaw, 35, will be making just his second start since returning from a six-week stay on the injured list. Hes been his usual dominant self when healthy, pitching to a 2.51 ERA with a 27.5% strikeout rate and 6% walk rate in 100 1/3 innings this season. Kershaw currently ranks fourth among active pitchers in strikeouts with 2916 in his career. He trails only (3340), (3290) and (2955) in that regard. Depending on how long Greinkes recent placement on the IL lasts, Kershaw could move into third place on that esteemed ranking by seasons end. Sam Merrill Jersey
