UNDATED (AP) — Albert Pujols has switched places with Cody Bellinger on the Dodgers’ COVID-19 list.

Pujols landed on the list and will be re-evaluated on Wednesday. Manager Dave Roberts says Pujols wasn’t feeling well after receiving his second vaccination.

Bellinger was activated from the IL after missing eight games with a broken left rib.

Also around the majors:

— The Mets said that pitcher Jacob deGrom will be shut down for the remainder of the season. The two-time Cy Young Award winner has been sidelined since mid-July because of an elbow injury. The club says the injury has healed.

— Hall of Fame broadcaster Jaime Jarrín will retire as the Dodgers’ Spanish-language announcer following the 2022 season, ending a 64-year run with the team. The 85-year-old Jarrin made the announcement today, saying he wants to spend more time with his two sons and grandchildren as well as travel. He began calling Dodgers games in 1959 and was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1998, becoming just the second Spanish-language announcer to receive the honor.
