Rays Select Oliver Dunn From Triple-A, Ben Williamson To IL 4/10

Rays Select Oliver Dunn From Triple-A, Ben Williamson To IL

Dunn enters a Tampa Bay lineup that leads the AL East at 32-15 with a +38 run differential, though Williamson's lower back strain removes depth from an infield that's been part of the majors' second-best defense.

5/10

Mets-Nationals series continues wild offensive display

NYM (21-27, -10 run diff) and WSH (24-25, -19 run diff) have combined for 29 runs across two games despite both teams ranking bottom-five in run differential—tonight's matchup pits Littell (6.10 ERA, 0.418 xwOBA) against an unnamed Mets starter in what could be another high-scoring affair.

3/10

Thomas White scratched from Triple-A start (precautionary)

No current MLB stats available for White in the database, limiting context on potential impact to Miami's organization depth.

Marlins option Braxton Garrett back to Triple-A 5/10

Marlins option Braxton Garrett back to Triple-A

Garrett's 33.75 ERA across his debut appearance leaves Miami's rotation intact with Meyer (2.85 ERA) and Alcantara (3.53 ERA) as anchors, though the team sits 22-26 with a -1 run differential and must rely on Pérez (5.33 ERA, 2-6) and Junk (4.14 ERA) for depth.

Rays Trade Joe Rock To White Sox 4/10

Rays Trade Joe Rock To White Sox

Rock departs a TB bullpen that has allowed just 188 runs (best in AL East) while the Rays sit 31-15. Neither pitcher carries relevant 2026 stats, limiting impact assessment on either roster.

Chase Burns strikes out nine in Reds' 4-1 win over Phillies 5/10

Chase Burns strikes out nine in Reds' 4-1 win over Phillies

Burns delivered a quality start but Cincinnati remains stuck at .500 (24-24) with a -36 run differential, while Philadelphia's win streak extends to five games as they sit 2.5 games clear in the NL East.

Ronald Acuña Jr. Returns, Braves Beat Marlins 8-4 5/10

Ronald Acuña Jr. Returns, Braves Beat Marlins 8-4

Acuña went 1-for-2 with 2 walks in his first action, raising his season line to .252/.380/.378 across 34 games. ATL (32-16, +86 run diff) stays NL East's best while MIA (22-26, -1 run diff) awaits tonight's rematch with Sale on the mound.

Guardians Re-Sign Kolby Allard To Minor League Deal 3/10

Guardians Re-Sign Kolby Allard To Minor League Deal

Allard posted a 10.38 ERA in limited 2026 action before his release and recall, indicating Cleveland is banking on organizational familiarity rather than recent performance. The move has no immediate impact on a Guardians rotation led by Williams (3.67 ERA, 6-3) that sits 27-22 atop the AL Central.

Corbin Burnes (ARI) progressing: live BP Friday 6/10

Corbin Burnes (ARI) progressing: live BP Friday

Burnes advances to live batting practice after elbow rehab, moving closer to rotation availability for a Diamondbacks team currently 28-20 with a +47 run differential. His return timeline remains unclear, but the progression suggests potential activation within 1-2 weeks.

A Closer Look At The Top Offense In Baseball 3/10

A Closer Look At The Top Offense In Baseball

Washington's +262 runs scored masks a rotation hemorrhaging runs: Cavalli (4.05 ERA), Griffin (3.53), and Irvin (5.59) combine for a 0.341 xwOBA average while Littell (6.10 ERA, 0.418 xwOBA) and Mikolas (6.91 ERA) anchor the bottom, explaining the -22 run differential despite ranking first in scoring through 48 games.

Astros Place Lance McCullers Jr. On Injured List With Shoulder Inflammation 7/10

Astros Place Lance McCullers Jr. On Injured List With Shoulder Inflammation

McCullers departs with a 6.86 ERA across 3 starts, but Houston's rotation loses its only reliable arm as the team sits 19-30 with a -54 run differential. Nate Pearson's return provides depth, though his 2026 stats are unavailable and the Astros face Minnesota tonight with Jason Alexander taking the start.

Diamondbacks Place James McCann On IL, Select Aramis Garcia 6/10

Diamondbacks Place James McCann On IL, Select Aramis Garcia

McCann was hitting .203/.208 with a 0.208 xwOBA in limited action before the quad strain. Garcia enters with a 0.333 AVG and 0.308 xwOBA in his limited sample, offering marginal offensive upside over McCann's performance.

Cubs Designate Ty Blach For Assignment 5/10

Cubs Designate Ty Blach For Assignment

Thielbar (3.12 ERA, 0.249 xwOBA pre-injury) returns to a rotation anchored by Imanaga (3.38 ERA) but hampered by Taillon (4.97 ERA, 0.353 xwOBA) and Rea (4.98 ERA, 0.359 xwOBA). Cubs are 3-7 in their last 10 despite leading NLC with +36 run differential, suggesting bullpen or depth usage drove this move rather than urgent rotation need.

Gerrit Cole to start for Yankees on Friday 5/10

Gerrit Cole to start for Yankees on Friday

Cole's assignment marks a routine rotation slot for NYY (29-19, +69 run diff), though the database shows no 2026 stats available for him—likely due to recent roster addition or injury recovery status that warrants monitoring.

White Sox Release Osvaldo Bido; Pitcher Pursues Japan Opportunity 3/10

White Sox Release Osvaldo Bido; Pitcher Pursues Japan Opportunity

Bido posted a 6.27 ERA across limited 2026 action and had failed multiple waiver-claim attempts over the past year, making the release a shedding of organizational dead weight rather than a meaningful roster move.
