Atlanta placed Strider (oblique) on the 15-day injured list Wednesday.

Manager Walt Weiss had previously confirmed Monday that Strider would be headed to the IL after the right-hander strained his left oblique after making a start in a minor-league spring game against the Red Sox last week. Though Weiss is optimistic that Atlanta got out in front of Strider's injury before it worsened, the 27-year-old isn't a lock to be activated from the IL when first eligible April 6. Jose Suarez is the leading candidate to enter the rotation as Atlanta's new No. 5 starter while Strider is on the mend.

The Reds placed Ferguson (oblique) on the 15-day injured list Wednesday.

Ferguson will get a late start to the season after tweaking his right oblique in mid-March. Once healthy, he's expected to fill a middle-relief role in the Cincinnati bullpen.

The Marlins placed Acosta (oblique) on the 10-day injured list Wednesday.

Acosta will be shelved for at least the first couple weeks of the season with a left oblique strain. He could be assigned to Triple-A Jacksonville rather than the major-league club once he's healthy and completes a rehab assignment.

The Marlins placed Stowers (hamstring) on the 10-day injured list Wednesday.

Stowers was diagnosed Sunday with a Grade 1 right hamstring strain and is expected to need 3-to-4 weeks to make a full recovery. With Stowers opening the season on the shelf, the Marlins should have regular reps available in the corner outfield for Griffin Conine and Owen Caissie, and the right-handed-hitting Heriberto Hernandez could see more opportunities against righties after he previously appeared to be in line for a short-side platoon role.

The Marlins placed Mazur (elbow) on the 60-day injured list Wednesday.

The move frees a spot on the 40-man roster. Mazur will miss the entirety of the 2026 season after undergoing UCL reconstruction surgery with an internal brace on his right elbow earlier this month.

The Dodgers placed Stewart (shoulder) on the 15-day injured list Monday.

Stewart is still working his way back from a right shoulder debridement procedure he underwent last September. The right-handed reliever has been throwing off a mound and the hope is his stay on the injured list will be brief.

The Reds placed Lodolo (finger) on the 15-day injured list Wednesday.

Lodolo had been slated to pitch during the Reds' first series of the season but will instead hit the shelf after he exited his final Grapefruit League start last weekend when he developed a blister on his left index finger. The southpaw was able to resume playing catch Tuesday, so assuming his finger presents no further issues for him while he builds back up, he could be ready to return from the IL when first eligible April 7.

The Dodgers placed Snell (shoulder) on the 15-day injured list Monday.

Snell has been working his way back from left shoulder fatigue, an issue that's lingered since last season. He's begun throwing off a mound but will not be ready for his season debut until late May, at the earliest. The Dodgers could eventually shift Snell to the 60-day IL when/if they need a 40-man roster spot.

The Dodgers placed Miller (shoulder) on the 60-day injured list Monday.

Miller was slowed by shoulder soreness this spring, and the injury is evidently bad enough that the Dodgers opted to go ahead and put him on the 60-day IL. The righty converted to a relief role in the minors last season and is surely headed back to Triple-A Oklahoma City once he returns to full health.

The Dodgers placed Graterol (shoulder) on the 15-day injured list Monday.

Graterol didn't make any spring training appearances and has had difficulty regaining velocity since undergoing right shoulder surgery in November 2024. He's been throwing, but it's unclear when he might be an option for the Dodgers bullpen.
