McCann agreed to a one-year, $5.4 million deal with the White Sox, avoiding arbitration, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.

While the signing of Yasmani Grandal greatly reduces McCann's role with Chicago going forward, he was worth 2.3 fWAR in 476 plate appearances last year, so it would have been surprising to see him non-tendered. McCann enters 2020 as one of the better backup catchers in the American League. Dec 02 3:41 pm (EST)

W. Astudillo - C

MIN

Twins president Derek Falvey revealed Friday that Willians Astudillo has tested positive for COVID-19.

Twins minor leaguers Edward Colina and Nick Gordon have also tested positive, but those positive tests came away from the intake process for summer camp. Astudillo is asymptotic but has been placed in quarantine and will have to return two negative tests before he can join the workouts happening at Target Field. There is another positive on the Twins' major league roster, but Falvey declined to reveal the name.

L. McCullers Jr. - SP

HOU

Lance McCullers (elbow) is scheduled to throw live batting practice on Saturday.

McCullers missed all of 2019 after undergoing Tommy John reconstructive elbow surgery, but he should be fully recovered by now. “I’m in a very good place, mentally and physically,” McCullers said after arriving at summer camp in Houston on Friday. “I feel excellent. I felt great in spring training, but the extra time off and being able to ramp it up and pull it back down, I feel it’s made me a little bit stronger. I’m excited.” The 26-year-old posted a strong 3.67 ERA and 10.1 K/9 through his first 453 2/3 major league innings between 2015-2018.

J. Duplantier - SP

ARI

Diamondbacks GM Mike Hazen said Friday that Jon Duplantier (elbow) is behind the other pitchers at summer camp.

Duplantier had to be shut down in April due to some soreness in his right elbow. It doesn't seem to be overly serious, but the 25-year-old may not be an option for Arizona when the season gets underway. Duplantier posted a 4.42 ERA and 34/18 K/BB ratio over his first 36 2/3 major league innings in 2019.

C. Kershaw - SP

LA

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Friday that Clayton Kershaw, Ross Stripling, and Alex Wood have already thrown three-inning simulated games.

Given where we are on the calendar, with Opening Day tentatively scheduled for July 23-24, those three pitchers should be close to fully stretched out when real games get underway. Kershaw and Wood look to be locked into spots in the Dodgers' starting rotation, with Stripling projected to serve as a valuable swingman.

Evan Phillips (elbow) has been added to the Orioles' player pool.

Phillips went down with an elbow issue back in early March, but it proved to be minor and the delayed start to the 2020 season will apparently allow him to be an option for the O's leading into MLB's revised 60-game campaign. The 25-year-old struggled to a 6.43 ERA and 1.86 WHIP in 28 innings last season.

G. Canning - SP

Griffin Canning (elbow) faced live hitters Friday at Angel Stadium.

Canning was set to open the season on the injured list after being diagnosed in March with "chronic changes" to the ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow, but baseball's COVID-19 delay has allowed him extra time for rest and rehab. The 24-year-old should be ready to rock for Opening Day 2.0 and figures to be an important piece of the Angels' starting rotation in this condensed 2020 campaign. He posted a 4.58 ERA, 1.22 WHIP, and 96/30 K/BB ratio across his first 90 1/3 major league innings last season for the Halos.

G. Gallegos - RP

STL

Cardinals president John Mozeliak said Friday that Giovanny Gallegos' absence from summer camp is due to travel issues.

That's better than the alternative with COVID-19 diagnoses spiking again across parts of North America. Gallegos is at home in his native Mexico but should soon be able to make his way to Busch Stadium for workouts. The 28-year-old right-hander could open as the Cardinals' primary option at closer, at least until Jordan Hicks completes his rehabilitation from Tommy John reconstructive elbow surgery.

Y. Alvarez - LF

HOU

Yordan Alvarez has not yet arrived in Houston for summer camp due to undisclosed reasons.

Astros manager Dusty Baker was asked about the absence of Alvarez on Friday afternoon and cited "league mandates" for why he couldn't give a straight answer. It's easy to speculate what might be happening here. Hopefully the 2019 AL Rookie of the Year can get healthy and join the team at some point. He slashed .313/.412/.655 with 27 home runs and 78 RBI over his first 87 major league games last season.
