Robles will undergo an MRI on his injured right knee in New York on Wednesday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Robles suffered the injury during Tuesday's game in Cincinnati as the reliever left after tallying just one out over his first five batters. He did undergo X-rays following the game, which came back negative, but there should be a better gauge on his status following Wednesday's MRI.

Santana covered six innings for Double-A Tulsa on Tuesday, conceding one run and striking out 11.

Santana has now allowed two or fewer runs in six of his seven starts this season, leaving him with a 2.12 ERA over 34 innings. The right-hander has registered a gaudy 48:10 K:BB during that span, giving him a viable claim to the title of the Dodgers' top pitching prospect once Walker Buehler exhausts his eligibility. Santana could earn a midseason promotion to Triple-A Oklahoma City if he continues to shine in the Texas League, but it seems unlikely that he'll get a look from the Dodgers at any point in 2018 even with the big club recently losing Clayton Kershaw (biceps) and Hyun-Jin Ryu (groin) to the disabled list.

Vizcaino worked around a hit and a walk in a scoreless inning to earn his fifth save of the season Tuesday against the Rays.

Vizcaino made things interesting in a one-run game, allowing a pair of baserunners, but a timely double play and a fortuitous foul out closed the door on the hosts. He's been particularly sharp of late, allowing just one earned run over his last 10 outings while recording all five of his save opportunities in that span. He'll look to keep it rolling for a much improved Atlanta squad.

Hader struck out three over a pair of clean innings to earn his fourth save of the season Tuesday against the Indians.

The bullpen had to step up after starter Wade Miley (oblique) went down early on, and it was Hader who stepped up to provide his fourth multi-inning outing in his last five. He remains an elite source of strikeouts and now has an otherworldly 19.4 K/9 on the season. Though Corey Knebel (hamstring) is likely to be activated soon, Hader should remain a workhorse for Milwaukee and could even be in the mix for saves for the foreseeable future.

Boxberger gave up a game-tying home run in the ninth for a blown save Tuesday, striking out two and walking zero in the extra-innings affair.

Boxberger came on with a one-run lead, and after striking out Chase Utley, he served up a solo shot to Enrique Hernandez. It was the first blown save on the year for Boxberger, and the second home run he's surrendered through 16 innings. The right-hander maintains a solid 2.25 ERA and .217 batting average against, although the eight walks are slightly high. Boxberger's 11 saves are good for third in the majors.

Neris recorded the final two outs of the game, both strikeouts, to earn his seventh save of the season Tuesday against the Giants.

Neris entered the game with a two-run lead and the bases empty attempting to preserve the lead for the Phillies, and he successfully converted his seventh save in nine opportunities this season. He bounced back from an ugly blown save Sunday against the Nationals, and remains the only Phillies' reliever to record a save this season.

Edwards (1-0) grabbed the win Tuesday against the Marlins, tossing a scoreless inning of relief with one walk and three strikeouts.

Edwards continued his outstanding start to the season, as he now has 30 strikeouts over 17 innings with an elite 0.53 ERA. The righty is on the fantasy radar due to his strong ratios alone, so any wins he picks up along the way are an added bonus. Edwards has additional value in leagues that count holds, as he has eight of those as well.

Robles will undergo X-rays after suffering a right knee injury Tuesday, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

Robles exited Tuesday's loss to the Reds with the knee issue after throwing 19 pitches and recording only one out. The 27-year-old should be considered day-to-day for now as the severity of the injury remains unclear.

Robles exited Tuesday's game against the Reds with an apparent injury, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

The only out recorded by Robles was a sacrifice bunt by Reds reliever Wandy Peralta and he allowed three hits and a walk, and was charged with two earned runs. The specifics of the injury remain unclear at this point.

Bracho was recalled from Triple-A Reno on Tuesday.

With Braden Shipley (elbow) being placed on the disabled list, Bracho will return to the big club. Bracho has tossed six innings over four games for the Diamondbacks this season. In that time he's allowed one run on three hits and three walks while striking out 10 batters.
