Taylor Trammell Injured, Out for Year
Friday, May 29th , 2026
The news is bad in Hershey. The Bears have lost the services of center fielder Taylor Trammell for the rest of the season due to a torn back muscle. Trammell was injured in a recent game with the Nashville Bootleggers while running the bases and is expected to miss 5 months.

On the season, Trammell is batting .315 with 13 home runs and 33 RBIs. He has played in 41 games.
Providence's Vargas Injured, Out of Lineup
Thursday, May 28th , 2026
The season is finished for Miguel Vargas of the Providence Friars. The club announced today that he will forego the rest of the year because of injury. The Friars third baseman suffered a broken bone in the elbow while running the bases in a recent game against the Springdale Naturals. Team doctors said it would take at least 8 months to heal.

In 13 games this year, Vargas has posted a .325 average and put up these numbers: 1 home run, 8 RBIs and 3 runs scored.
League Issues Soto 2-Game Suspension
Thursday, May 28th , 2026
The Providence Friars were hoping for a more lenient ruling from the league office, but they didn't get it. In yesterday's game at Sluggers Ballpark against the Springdale Naturals, Friars shortstop Livan Soto was ejected by the home plate umpire after he vociferously questioned a third-strike call.

The commissioner's office issued a 2-game suspension, saying the league would not tolerate a player behaving in that manner. The disgruntled Soto refused to leave the field and kicked dirt on the umpire's shoes. His manager tried to keep him away from the umpire and physically had to remove him to the dugout with the help of the two other coaches.

Reached for comment after getting the suspension notice, Soto said he was too disgusted to talk about it.

Soto has collected 33 hits for the Friars this year, 1 of them home runs. He has also netted 12 RBIs and scored 15 runs while batting .375.
