It's April 29th. Welcome in. This is MLB News Today, where the game meets AI, I'm Corey, with the story. Tampa Bay Race, third baseman, Junior Caminero, is day-to-day after taking a foul tip right to the jaw and Tuesday night's game against Cleveland. The 22-year-old got hit when he fouled off a cutter from pitcher Tanner Bibley. The ball ricocheted off the plate and smacked him in the right jaw during the first inning. He dropped to the ground face-down for a couple minutes while the trainer checked him out. Caminero stayed in for that ad bet, grounded out weekly to Bibi, then got pulled for Ben Williamson. Fans held their breath, watching him go down like that, but the good news is no fracture, just a bruise. Caminero's been on fire lately, leading the race with eight home runs and hitting safely in 12 of his last 14 games before this. He's got ties to Cleveland too, after spending three years in their farm system. That makes the injury sting a bit more in this matchup. Ray's brass will monitor him closely, but day-to-day means he could be back swinging soon.

Keep an eye on the lineup updates as Tampa Bay pushes forward.
