Yordan Alvarez - To IL for undisclosed reasonAlvarez was placed on the injured list Wednesday with no injury designation, Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports.
ImpactHe was held out of Wednesday's lineup against the Mariners for what manager Dusty Baker called "health and safety" reasons, so Alvarez presumably was either exposed to someone with COVID-19 or is showing symptoms, although we can't be sure at this juncture. Taylor Jones was recalled in a corresponding move.

Sam Haggerty - Starting again WednesdayHaggerty is starting at second base and batting sixth Wednesday in Houston. He has now started five of the last six games.

It appears Seattle is going to play the hot hand at the keystone, and right now that's Haggerty, whose speed makes him noteworthy in deeper roto leagues.
