The Miami Marlins have acquired Fernando Rodney in a trade with the San Diego Padres.

Miami sent right-handed pitcher Chris Paddack to San Diego in the swap.

Rodney, 39, has an 0.31 ERA and 17 saves in 28 appearances with the Padres this season. He has 253 career saves.

At 41-37, the Marlins currently hold the National League's second Wild Card spot.

Philadelphia Phillies minor league pitcher Matt Imhof, who sustained a traumatic injury to his right eye late last week during a freak training accident, has had his eye removed on the recommendation of doctors.

Imhof said a large piece of metal hit him in the eye and head, fracturing his nose and two orbital bones and causing the loss of vision in his right eye.

"That night, the doctors informed me that the damage to my eye was extreme and essentially that my eye had been crushed like a grape," Imhof wrote on Instagram.

The Phillies drafted Imhof in the second round of the 2014 draft. He will have a prosthetic eye placed in his right socket.

Imhof, a 6-foot-5 left-hander out of Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, received a signing bonus of $1,187,900 from the Phillies as the 47th overall pick in 2014.

After placing Clayton Kershaw on the disabled list, the Los Angeles Dodgers have acquired Bud Norris in a trade with the Atlanta Braves.

Norris last pitched on Sunday, tossing seven scoreless innings against the New York Mets. He is in line to start for the Dodgers on Friday against the Colorado Rockies, an appearance that Kershaw was slotted to make.

Kershaw received an epidural shot on his ailing lower back, leading to the DL stint.

"I think that he understands that's the best course of action," Dave Roberts said of Kershaw. "He's been our most valuable player. And when you lose a player to the disabled list like Clayton that you have counted on every fifth day for a start -- obviously that's out of all of our control.

"I know Clayton is very disappointed. But it's up to us to pick him up."

The Dodgers also received outfielder Dian Toscano, a player to be named later and cash considerations in the deal.

Los Angeles gave up minor-league pitchers Philip Pfeifer and Caleb Dirks.

The Tampa Bay Rays may be willing to trade Matt Moore and interest in the pitcher is believed to be building.

The Texas Rangers are "hot on Moore's trail," according to the report. Three or four other organizations are also pursuing Moore.

Moore struggled in his return from Tommy John surgery last season and he has a 5.04 ERA in 2016.

David Price, who has allowed at least four earned runs in six of his 17 starts for the Boston Red Sox, said after a loss to the Tampa Bay Rays on Wednesday that he expects much more of himself.

"I'm just putting us behind the eight ball early on in games," Price said. "I'm not setting the tone the way that I need to. It's tough. I'm so much better than this. I've just got to get better. It's crushing me right now, but I'll get there."

The Red Sox are paying Price $30 million this season and $217 million over the next seven years.

"Absolutely. It's unacceptable," Price said. "I don't care if I'm a rookie. It's unacceptable."

The Los Angeles Dodgers are waiting for information on Clayton Kershaw's back.

He returned to Los Angeles on Wednesday.

"I know he landed safely and will get some scans sometime," Dave Roberts said. "I should hear at some point and time."

Kershaw gave up four runs on nine hits Sunday night in a loss to the Pittsburgh Pirates, only his second loss in 16 starts this season. He was treated for a lower back issue the next day.

The left-hander is scheduled to pitch against the Colorado Rockies on Friday, but it remains to be seen if he'll make the start.

"I haven't learned anything new today," Roberts said. "I know [pitching coach Rick Honeycutt] talked to him before he left. The idea to get him back, settled, to get the doctors' eyes on him, increase those chances for Friday. I think that we are still holding out hope. Things can always change, but I think that's where we're at right now."

Jose Altuve is on pace for one of the best seasons from a second baseman in the past 50 years.

He is on pace for a .357 average, 27 home runs, 49 doubles, 43 steals, 123 runs and about 9.0 WAR at this point.

Only four second baseman have posted more WAR since the divisional era began in 1969 -- Joe Morgan (1975, 1976), Craig Biggio and Chase Utley.

The New York Yankees have signed first-round pick Blake Rutherford.

New York took him with the 18th overall pick earlier this month.

The Yankees will assign Rutherford to its Gulf Coast League affiliate.

Rutherford has signed for $3,282,000 -- significantly over the allotted slot bonus of $2,441,600 for his slot.

He is a left-handed-hitting prospect out of Chaminade College Preparatory School (CA).

David Ortiz says he won't participate in the Home Run Derby at All-Star Weekend next month.

The Boston Red Sox wouldn't have stood in Ortiz's way if he wanted to participate, but they are thrilled he's sitting it out.

"If it turns out he doesn't participate in the Home Run Derby, I think that's probably music to all of our ears," John Farrell said. "But at the same time, he's earned the right to enjoy and experience that opportunity in San Diego as much as anyone."

Ortiz hasn't taken part in the Home Run Derby since 2010.

The Washington Nationals are trying to figure out how to get Trea Turner back to the Major Leagues as soon as possible and have played him in center field at Triple-A Syracuse.

Turner is rated as Washington's No. 2 prospect and the ninth-best in baseball, according to MLB Pipeline.

He started in center for Syracuse for the first time in his professional career on Monday. Turner had only played the middle infield since he was drafted in 2014, but Daniel Murphy and Danny Espinosa are blocking him at the Major League level.

"We feel that offensively he's Major League ready," Rizzo said. "Danny's playing extremely well at shortstop up here. We've got a full roster of really qualified quality players at the big league level, but he's a guy that we would like to see here in the big leagues."
