Red Sox Place Garrett Crochet On 15-Day IL With Shoulder Inflammation 7/10

Red Sox Place Garrett Crochet On 15-Day IL With Shoulder Inflammation

Crochet's 6.30 ERA and 1.47 WHIP through 6 starts already signaled trouble; shoulder inflammation now sidelines Boston's most strikeout-heavy arm (11.10 K/9) as the Red Sox sit 12-18 with a -9 run differential. Ranger Suarez (3.09 ERA, 0.94 WHIP) becomes the de facto ace for a rotation that can ill afford further attrition.

White Sox Select Jarred Kelenic; Pereira to IL With Pectoral Strain 5/10

White Sox Select Jarred Kelenic; Pereira to IL With Pectoral Strain

Pereira's injury opens a path for Kelenic after limited production (.250 AVG, .314 xwOBA in early action). Chicago's outfield depth is already thin—Eli White sits at .194 AVG, .261 xwOBA—making the callup necessary despite minimal Triple-A context available.

3/10

2026-27 Club Options: AL Central

Detroit's rotation features Skubal (2.73 ERA, 0.278 xwOBA) and Mize (2.90 ERA, 0.295 xwOBA) as anchors, but Flaherty's 5.33 ERA and 0.363 xwOBA signal potential option decisions ahead for a 15-15 team.

Trey Yesavage Returns to Blue Jays Rotation 6/10

Trey Yesavage Returns to Blue Jays Rotation

Toronto's rotation gains depth at 2-1 in the AL East race, though no current season stats are available for Yesavage yet. The move comes as the Jays sit 13-16 with a -25 run differential, needing reinforcement behind Gausman (2.57 ERA) and Cease (2.87 ERA).

Angels Designate Joey Lucchesi For Assignment 5/10

Angels Designate Joey Lucchesi For Assignment

Lucchesi posted a 13.50 ERA with a 0.444 xwOBA across 0 IP this season, making the move a roster housekeeping measure rather than a competitive loss. LAA recalled Mitch Farris from Triple-A to add depth to a rotation anchored by Soriano (0.84 ERA, 5-1).

Braves Designate Carrasco For Assignment 5/10

Braves Designate Carrasco For Assignment

Carrasco had no recorded IP this season, so the move clears a roster spot for Lee's return from paternity leave rather than addressing rotation depth. Atlanta remains 21-9 with Elder (1.95 ERA), Sale (2.31 ERA), and López anchoring the staff.

Giants To Select Gregory Santos From Triple-A 4/10

Giants To Select Gregory Santos From Triple-A

SF's 40-man roster is full, requiring a corresponding move to make room. The Giants are -24 in run differential (97 RS, 121 RA) and have struggled with rotation depth—Mahle (5.87 ERA) and Houser (7.36 ERA) have combined for a 1-6 record.

Yankees Designate Randal Grichuk For Assignment 6/10

Yankees Designate Randal Grichuk For Assignment

Grichuk departs with a .194 AVG and .314 xwOBA across limited action, clearing a roster spot for prospect Elmer Rodríguez's MLB debut. Rodríguez starts Wednesday against Texas's Eovaldi (5.79 ERA), a favorable matchup for the Yankees' rotation as they extend a 9-1 run over their last 10 games.

5/10

Caminero avoids serious injury after facial contact

Caminero (.257 AVG, .361 xwOBA, 8 HR in 29 G) exited Tuesday but avoided structural damage to remain available for Tampa Bay's series against Cleveland. The Rays have won six straight and sit +1 in run differential despite limited offensive firepower.

Bo Bichette: Bops leadoff homer Tuesday 3/10

Bo Bichette: Bops leadoff homer Tuesday

Bichette's 2-RBI performance marks a rare bright spot for his season (.237 AVG, 0.321 xwOBA, 2 HR in 29 G). The Mets face Cavalli tonight, who has allowed a 0.313 xwOBA across 3 starts.

3/10

Alex Cora Unlikely To Return to Managing in 2026

Cora's absence from the managerial market removes a notable candidate but has no direct impact on Boston's 12-17 roster. The Red Sox remain 5th in AL East with Suarez (3.09 ERA) and Crochet (6.30 ERA) anchoring a rotation struggling to keep pace offensively (-6 run differential).

Ryan O'Hearn: Smacks two-run homer 3/10

Ryan O'Hearn: Smacks two-run homer

O'Hearn continues his strong season with a .394 OBP and .484 SLG through 27 games, but Pittsburgh lost despite his 3-RBI performance, falling to 16-13 while sitting with a +22 run differential.

Cubs Outrights Scott Kingery to Triple-A Iowa 3/10

Cubs Outrights Scott Kingery to Triple-A Iowa

Kingery clears waivers after DFA, freeing a roster spot for Chicago's 17-12 squad. The move is roster housekeeping with minimal impact to a Cubs team sitting +29 in run differential.

6/10

Báez undergoing testing on right ankle injury

Báez has yet to record a stat line this season, suggesting the injury occurred during early play. Detroit's 5-12 road record means the team can't afford extended absences from its lineup depth against Atlanta's 20-9 club.

3/10

George Lombard: Moving up to Triple-A

Lombard's promotion from Double-A represents routine prospect development in a Yankees system that's 19-10 and 9-1 in their last 10 games, with no immediate roster impact.
