MLB Injury Repoert

Max Fried – SP Atlanta Braves

It sounds like Fried could be ready to rejoin the Braves at some point this week.

Corey Kluber – SP/RP Boston Red Sox

There should be an update on Kluber’s status later today or tomorrow, but it’s not a positive development. He was supposed to be back with the Red Sox later in the week, but that likely won’t happen now.

Jonathan India – 2B Cincinnati Reds

India had apparently been playing through a heel injury for a while, and now it looks to be too much to handle. With him being a potential trade piece, it’s terrible timing for the Reds, especially if he needs time on the Injured List. Look for updates to happen soon as a possible trip to the Injured List is certainly on the table.

Charlie Blackmon – OF Colorado Rockies

This is definitely something, as Blackmon is inching himself closer to a rehab appearance.

Taylor Ward – OF Los Angeles Angels

This was the latest update, as Ward is in the hospital after a scary HBP to the face. He needed to be carried off on a stretcher. The hope is that all will be okay and that he can return at some point.

Brandon Drury – INF/OF Los Angeles Angels

It looks as if Drury is hopeful for a quick rehab outing and to return later in the week. Whether or not that happens remains to be seen.

Clayton Kershaw – SP Los Angeles Dodgers

It looks like the final step in Kershaw’s bid to return will depend on how he feels over the next few days. If things are good and he feels normal soreness and fatigue, then he could be back in the rotation by this time next week.

Mookie Betts – 2B/SS/OF Los Angeles Dodgers

While the severity of this ankle injury is unknown, it’s worth noting that Betts has some swelling. Whether or not he misses time on the Injured List has yet to be determined, but for now, consider him DTD.

Avisail Garcia – OF Miami Marlins

There’s been no word yet from the team, but Garcia himself thinks he’ll return today. Stay tuned.

Jazz Chisholm Jr. – 2B/OF Miami Marlins

There’s no word on how long this rehab assignment will take, but it’s promising that it’s at least starting. He could very well be in the Marlins’ lineup within the week.

Nestor Cortes – SP New York Yankees

It looks like the team and Cortes both want one more outing before committing to a return to the Yankees. A total of about 60 pitches would show that he’s ready to return as a starter.

Esteury Ruiz – OF Oakland Athletics

Ruiz and his speed have never been in question, as evidenced by his ability to easily hit that triple. With regard to this injury are Ruiz’s arms and his ability to throw a baseball. Once that is back to 100%, we should see Ruiz running wild with the Athletics in a similar fashion.

Zach Eflin – SP Tampa Bay Rays

This is a promising development for Eflin, who may or may not be back with the Rays for his next turn in the rotation. That being said, things are looking good for him.

Corey Seager – SS Texas Rangers

This is the first significant update on Seager, who may be back without a rehab assignment. He originally thought that he’d be back within two weeks from the date of the injury, and this would help that proclamation come true.

Nathan Eovaldi – SP Texas Rangers

Eovaldi has already had one start pushed back because of wanted rest, and now he will miss another due to elbow soreness. With Max Scherzer now on the team, the Rangers can afford to give extra rest for Eovaldi, who they’ll need come playoff time.

Jordan Romano – RP Toronto Blue Jays

Romano will miss the next two weeks with inflammation in his lower back. He’s been off and on with that injury since the All-Star Break. It looks like Yimi Garcia and Erik Swanson will get opportunities to save, but don’t forget about Nate Pearson.
