• Guardians' Chase DeLauter: Goes on Triple-A IL

  20D ago • By RotoWire

  DeLauter was placed on the 7-day injured list at Triple-A Columbus on Friday with a right hamstring strain. The 22-year-old had posted an 1.147 OPS in six games after being promoted to Columbus, putting himself on the radar for a potential September call-up. While the severity of the strain is unclear, DeLauter would appear to now be a long shot to get a late-season look in the majors. He has loads of talent but just can't stay on the field, having missed ample time the last two seasons with foot and other lower-body problems.

  DeLauter will be promoted from Double-A Akron to Triple-A Columbus on Tuesday. DeLauter returned to action for Akron in late July after missing nearly two months of action with a foot injury. He had homered in each of his last three games and in four of his past seven contests with Akron. DeLauter has slashed .318/.385/.502 in two minor-league seasons but has been plagued by nagging foot problems.

• Guardians' Chase DeLauter: Activated from IL

  DeLauter (toe) was activated from Double-A Akron's 7-day injured list Saturday. The top prospect went 2-for-8 with a home run, a walk and three runs scored over three rehab games with the Guardians' Arizona Complex League affiliate. DeLauter did not play on consecutive days during his rehab assignment, so it's likely he'll be eased back in at Akron, potentially serving occasionally as the designated hitter.

  DeLauter (toe) began a rehab assignment with the Guardians' Arizona Complex League affiliate on Saturday. DeLauter has played just one game since April due to a broken left foot and then a sprained toe on his right foot. He's dealt with multiple foot injuries, primarily to the left one, during his minor-league career. Given his lengthy absence, he'll likely need at least a handful of rehab games before he can return to Double-A Akron's lineup.

• Guardians' Chase DeLauter: Goes back on IL

  06/10/2024 • By RotoWire

  Double-A Akron placed DeLauter (toe) on its 7-day injured list Monday. DeLauter is dealing with turf toe in his right foot, an injury he sustained May 28 in his first game back from the IL after he missed a month of action with a fracture in his left foot. Given his history of foot injuries -- DeLauter previously underwent surgery on his left foot in January 2023 -- the Guardians may choose to exercise caution before returning the 22-year-old from his latest stint on the IL. The outfielder has been limited to 17 games so far this season and is hitting .194/.301/.290 with one home run and one stolen base over 73 plate appearances.
