James Paxton – SP Boston Red Sox

The team wants to avoid using him against Atlanta, despite the fact that he last pitched on Friday. He has been a little erratic with the walks while rehabbing but otherwise has posted some solid numbers.

Adam Duvall – OF Boston Red Sox

It’s looking like early June is when we can expect Duvall back at the earliest, though nothing is set in stone. As you can see, the team is ravaged by injuries again this season.

Eloy Jimenez – OF Chicago White Sox

Awful news, as the superstar-to-be will have to wait at least one month to get things going. The good news is that he was treated immediately and solved the problem. The bad news is that the White Sox don’t have much depth.

Jake Fraley – OF Cincinnati Reds

There’s no word on whether this will be an ongoing or minor issue. As it stands, consider Fraley DTD until otherwise noted.

Jose Altuve – 2B Houston Astros

The window to buy low on Altuve is closing fast. He could begin a rehab assignment in short order.

Lance McCullers – SP Houston Astros

The results here are encouraging, though it’s unclear which pitch type(s) he was throwing. That said, the team could use him due to the recent depletion of their rotation. He might be a good player to stash now if he’s available.

Anthony Rendon – 3B Los Angeles Angels

The issue could be minor, but we’ll know more after he checks in later today. For now, Rendon is DTD.

J.D. Martinez – UT Los Angeles Dodgers

Be prepared.

Johnny Cueto – SP Miami Marlins

It was a rough day overall for Cueto, who surrendered six runs in just over two innings of work and then left with the injury. There will be more information to come.

Carlos Carrasco – SP New York Mets

It’s unclear if Carrasco is “not doing well” because of the elbow injury or the illness, but either way, expect his return to be delayed.

Kolten Wong – 2B Seattle Mariners

Despite the heroic effort in the attached video, Wong was in great spirits after the game. The negative X-rays likely make him DTD.

Ryan Helsley – RP St. Louis Cardinals

Helsley had a solid following his blowup against the Giants at the end of April. The team will need him back in order to close out games soon.

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. – 1B Toronto Blue Jays

This could be something or it could be nothing. Guerrero did not enter the game last night, despite likely being available, and will have today off. We may not know more until Tuesday, since the Jays have a day off. If one had to guess, he’ll be in the lineups next week.
