  • Coleman Crow SP | MIL

    Brewers' Coleman Crow: Recalled, could start Wednesday

    The Brewers recalled Crow from Triple-A Nashville on Tuesday.

    Milwaukee had optioned Crow to Nashville a week and a half ago, but he'll be eligible to rejoin the big club in fewer than 15 days after the Brewers placed Logan Henderson (back) on the injured list in a corresponding move. Since he had been on the same pitching schedule as Henderson, Crow is a logical choice to take over Henderson's turn in the rotation when it comes up again in Wednesday's series finale versus the Cardinals. Crow has previously made a pair of starts for Milwaukee this season, posting a 2.61 ERA, 0.77 WHIP and 7:1 K:BB across 10.1 innings between the two outings.

  • Hunter Greene SP | CIN

    Reds' Hunter Greene: Resumes mound work

    Greene (elbow) threw a successful bullpen session Tuesday, Charlie Goldsmith of Fox 19 Now Cincinnati reports.

    Greene stepped back on the mound for the first time since he underwent surgery in mid-March to remove bone chips from his right elbow. The report doesn't indicate where his velocity sat during the session, but Greene might not have been throwing at full intensity, anyway. The right-hander will likely need a couple more bullpen sessions before progressing to facing hitters and eventually going out on a rehab assignment. Greene is aiming to rejoin the Reds rotation sometime in July.

  • Brewers' Brandon Woodruff: Throwing 60-pitch live BP next week

    The Brewers announced Tuesday that Woodruff (shoulder) is scheduled for a 60-pitch live batting practice session next week, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

    Woodruff continues to get ramped back up after hitting the shelf in late April due to right shoulder inflammation. It's unclear whether the extended simulated game will replace a rehab assignment or if the veteran hurler will need a rehab outing in addition to the sim game. Woodruff held a 3.60 ERA and 25:7 K:BB over 30 innings covering six starts for the Brewers before getting hurt.

  • Javier Baez SS | DET

    Tigers' Javier Baez: Making slow progress with ankle

    Tigers manager A.J. Hinch said Tuesday that Baez is scheduled to meet with a specialist in the near future for further evaluation on his sprained right ankle, which hasn't healed as quickly as the team hoped, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.

    After being placed on the shelf April 29, Baez had been in the midst of a running and hitting progression at the Tigers' spring training facility in Florida, but he apparently hasn't been able to get over the hump in his recovery from the injury. Once Baez gets checked out by the specialist, the Tigers should have a better idea regarding a treatment plan for the injury along with a potential timeline for the 33-year-old to start ramping up his activities. Given that he's already missed nearly a month due to the injury, Baez could be a candidate to shift to the 60-day injured list if he's not ready to begin a rehab assignment within the next couple of weeks.

  • Blue Jays' Vladimir Guerrero: Not ready to rejoin lineup

    Guerrero (elbow) is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Marlins.

    Guerrero will wind up missing out on a second straight start while he continues to tend to a right elbow contusion, which he suffered when he was hit by a pitch in Sunday's loss to the Pirates. The Blue Jays don't appear to be concerned that the bruised elbow will send Guerrero to the injured list, as manager John Schneider told Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca that the 27-year-old is still experiencing some difficulty extending his right arm but was able to take some swings off a tee and against a pitching machine prior to Tuesday's game. Schneider also added that Guerrero could be available off the bench if a pinch-hitting situation arises.

  • Nolan Schanuel 1B | LAA

    Angels' Nolan Schanuel: Remains out of lineup

    Schanuel (calf) remains out of the lineup for Tuesday's contest in Detroit.

    Schanuel will miss a second straight start with a tight left calf injury that's bothered him off-and-on throughout the season. He is considered day-to-day, but the more time Schanuel misses, the higher the likelihood for an IL stint. Vaughn Grissom is again handling first base in Schanuel's stead Tuesday.

  • Logan O'Hoppe DH | TEX

    Angels' Logan O'Hoppe: Back in lineup Tuesday

    O'Hoppe (head) will start at catcher and bat ninth in Tuesday's game versus the Tigers.

    O'Hoppe didn't play in the Angels' last two games following a collision at home plate with the Rangers' Josh Jung last Friday. O'Hoppe avoided a concussion, however, and has been deemed ready to go for the series opener in Detroit.

  • Noah Schultz SP | CHW

    White Sox's Noah Schultz: Lands on IL with knee tendinitis

    The White Sox placed Schultz on the 15-day injured list Tuesday due to right knee patellar tendinitis.

    The injury isn't an unfamiliar concern for Schultz, who spent most of the second half of the 2025 season on the shelf at Triple-A Charlotte due to the same issue. The White Sox haven't offered word yet on the severity of Schultz's latest flareup of patellar tendinitis, making it difficult to forecast how long he might be shelved. Chicago recalled right-hander David Sandlin from Triple-A in a corresponding move, and he'll step into Schultz's spot in the rotation Wednesday versus the Twins in what will be the former MLB's debut. Through his first eight starts with Chicago after being called up from the minors in mid-April, Schultz has gone 2-4 with a 5.82 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 33:22 K:BB in 38.2 innings.

  • Braves' Spencer Schwellenbach: Begins throwing program

    Schwellenbach (elbow) has begun throwing on flat ground, Chad Bishop of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

    Schwellenbach began his throwing progression last week, per Grant McAuley of the Marietta Daily Journal, and did some more light tossing at Fenway Park pregame Tuesday. Atlanta has already ruled Schwellenbach out through the All-Star break, and a clear timetable won't be available until he starts ramping things up. Schwellenbach underwent surgery in February to remove bone spurs from his right elbow.

  • Brewers' Logan Henderson: Forced to IL with back strain

    The Brewers placed Henderson on the 15-day injured list Tuesday due to a low back strain.

    Henderson battled through back tightness during his previous start Friday against the Dodgers. Despite the injury, Henderson pitched effectively (nine strikeouts, one run allowed over five innings) en route to claiming the win, but he apparently didn't bounce back from the back issue as quickly as the Brewers had hoped. After landing on the IL, the young right-hander won't be available to rejoin the Milwaukee rotation until June 7. Coleman Crow was recalled from Triple-A Nashville in a corresponding move and could make a start the next time Henderson's turn in the rotation comes up.
