  • Max Meyer SP | MIA

    Marlins' Max Meyer: Lands on injured list

    The Marlins placed Meyer on the 15-day injured list Tuesday due to a left hip impingement, Kevin Barral of FishonFirst.com reports.

    Meyer surrendered four earned runs in each of his past two starts -- including a matchup versus the Rockies on Monday -- and will be sidelined for at least the next couple weeks due to a hip issue. It's unclear how long the left-hander is expected to be sidelined, though he'll be eligible to be reinstated from the injured list June 18.

  • Brandon Young SP | BAL

    Orioles' Brandon Young: Beginning rehab assignment

    Young (shoulder) has been sent to High-A Aberdeen to begin a rehab assignment, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

    Young has been sidelined for nearly a month with right shoulder discomfort but has been cleared to test things out in a game setting. He's on the 7-day injured list at Triple-A Norfolk and will eventually return to that affiliate when the Orioles decide he's ready.

  • Corbin Burnes SP | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Corbin Burnes: IL move official

    The Diamondbacks placed Burnes (elbow) on the 15-day injured list Tuesday.

    The right-hander is getting a second opinion on his right elbow from well-known surgeon Dr. Neal ElAttrache, and Burnes will be sidelined for at least the next couple weeks as he continues to be evaluated. Ryne Nelson will take Burnes' place in Arizona's starting rotation, while Tommy Henry was called up from Triple-A Reno to fill the open roster spot.

  • Ronel Blanco SP | HOU

    Astros' Ronel Blanco: Surgery scheduled for Friday

    Blanco (elbow) is scheduled to undergo Tommy John surgery Friday, Ari Alexander of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    It was announced last week that Blanco needed the operation to repair a torn UCL in his right elbow and now the surgery is officially on the calendar. He will be out at least until the second half of the 2026 season.

  • Tanner Gordon RP | COL

    Rockies' Tanner Gordon: Out with oblique strain

    The Rockies placed Gordon on the 15-day injured list Tuesday, retroactive to May 31, due to a left oblique strain.

    Gordon presumably sustained the injury during his start against the Cubs on Wednesday, when he gave up two runs on six hits with one strikeout and no walks over 4.2 innings. Regardless of the injury, the right-hander still may have lost his place in Colorado's rotation with Chase Dollander (forearm) returning from the IL to start Tuesday in Miami.

  • Rockies' Chase Dollander: Activated for Tuesday's start

    The Rockies reinstated Dollander (forearm) from the 15-day injured list to start Tuesday's game against the Marlins.

    The right-hander has been sidelined the past couple weeks due to forearm inflammation, but he's rejoining Colorado's rotation Tuesday without a minor-league rehab assignment. Through his first eight MLB starts, Dollander has struggled to a 6.28 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and 38:18 K:BB across 38.2 innings.

  • Corbin Burnes SP | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Corbin Burnes: Heading to injured list

    The Diamondbacks are expected to place Burnes (elbow) on the 15-day injured list, John Gambadoro of Arizona Sports 98.7 FM reports.

    There's no word yet on the specifics of Burnes' right elbow injury, as he is getting a second opinion after initial tests were inconclusive. However, he is set to miss at least the next couple weeks of action. Tommy Henry will be summoned from Triple-A Reno to take Burnes' roster spot and Ryne Nelson will slide into the rotation.

  • Corbin Burnes SP | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Corbin Burnes: Headed for second opinion on elbow

    Burnes is set to receive a second opinion on the right elbow injury he suffered in Sunday's win over the Nationals after initial tests were inconclusive, John Gambadoro of Arizona Sports 98.7 FM Phoenix reports.

    Burnes appeared to be in significant pain after exiting his start Sunday midway through the fifth inning, but the Diamondbacks haven't provided much word regarding the nature and severity of his injury beyond labeling it as right elbow inflammation. With the MRI he underwent Monday proving to be inconclusive, the Diamondbacks will send Burnes in for additional testing, and Gambadoro relays that the team expects to have more clarity on the right-hander's status by Thursday or Friday. At the very least, Burnes seems likely to miss his next turn through the rotation this weekend in Cincinnati, and fantasy managers should brace for the possibility of a long-term absence for 30-year-old.

  • Alex Cobb SP | DET

    Tigers' Alex Cobb: Two scoreless frames in rehab start

    Cobb (hip) struck out three while allowing one hit and no walks over two scoreless innings in his first rehab start Friday with High-A West Michigan.

    Cobb was shut down at the start of spring training due to right hip inflammation and has taken longer than expected to move past the injury, but he's finally reached the last stage of a lengthy recovery process. He was sharp Friday in his first start at any level in 2025, retiring all six batters he faced on 24 pitches. Cobb will likely need close to the full 30-day rehab window to get stretched out for a starting role, so he's not expected to be reinstated from the 60-day injured list until late June.

  • Alex Clemmey SP | WAS

    Nationals' Alex Clemmey: Leading Sally League in Ks

    Clemmey has posted a 3.15 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 67:38 K:BB through 11 starts and 45.2 innings for High-A Wilmington this season.

    The 67 Ks leads the South Atlantic League, and they've been coming in bunches -- the 19-year-old has fanned exactly nine batters in three of his last five starts, and he had a 10-strikeout performance back on April 10. Clemmey's control remains erratic, as he's issued multiple walks in every start so far in 2025, but his mid-90s fastball and slider both grade out as potential plus pitches. If the 6-foot-6 southpaw can find some consistency in his mechanics, he could still have a future as a starter, but in the long run his most likely path to the majors is as a high-leverage reliever in the Tanner Scott mold.
