• Goes on IL
    The Blue Jays placed Swanson (forearm) on the 15-day injured list.

    Advice: Though he's beginning the season on the IL, Swanson isn't expected to be facing a long-term absence while he recovers from right forearm inflammation. With Swanson joining closer Jordan Romano (elbow) on the IL, the Blue Jays are expected to turn to Yimi Garcia, Chad Green and Tim Mayza to handle most of the higher-leverage innings early in the season.

  • Padres option Adrian Morejon to Triple-A
    Padres optioned LHP Adrian Morejon to Triple-A El Paso.

    Advice: Morejon was with San Diego for last week’s season-opening series in South Korea, but he’ll head to the minors ahead of the club’s stateside opener. Rotoworld 10 minutes ago
  • Yankees add Nick Burdi to Opening Day roster
    Yankees selected the contract of RHP Nick Burdi from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

    Advice: Burdi put together a phenomenal spring to earn a spot in New York’s bullpen mix. The hard-throwing 31-year-old righty has battled injuries throughout his career, but is healthy at the moment. He’ll most likely pitch in middle relief for the Yankees. Rotoworld 13 minutes ago
     
  • Yankees recall Luis Gil from Triple-A
    Yankees recalled RHP Luis Gil from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

    Advice: Gil has been officially added to New York’s season-opening roster and will open the year in the starting rotation following an extremely impressive spring training performance. There’s definitely some appeal here for fantasy managers in deeper mixed leagues. Rotoworld 15 minutes ago
     
  • Moves to IL
    The Blue Jays placed Manoah (shoulder) on the 15-day injured list Thursday.

    Advice: Manoah is opening the season on the IL while he recovers from right shoulder inflammation, which kept him from pitching in the Grapefruit League after he made his spring debut Feb. 27. He was able to throw a two-inning, 34-pitch simulated game Wednesday, so his next step could be heading out on a minor-league rehab assignment. Manoah will likely require multiple starts in the minors to get fully stretched out before the Blue Jays consider activating him from the IL and including in the rotation.

  • Yankees put Tommy Kahnle (shoulder) on 15-day IL
    Yankees placed RHP Tommy Kahnle on the 15-day injured list, retroactive to March 25, with right shoulder inflammation.

    Advice: Kahnle has already progressed to facing hitters, so he’s not too far off from a minor league rehab assignment. Barring something unexpected, the 34-year-old veteran should be ready to make his season debut sometime in April. Rotoworld 22 minutes ago
     
  • Yu Darvish strikes out seven against Giants
    Yu Darvish pitched five innings of one-run ball and fanned seven against the Giants on Thursday.

    Advice: Darvish departed with a one-run lead, but it was blown in the seventh before the Padres went on to win anyway. Darvish has a 1.04 ERA in his two starts. He’ll face the Cardinals on Tuesday. Rotoworld 23 minutes ago
     
  • Robert Suarez picks up second save for Padres
    Despite giving up a homer, Robert Suarez notched his second save Thursday against the Giants.

    Advice: Michael Conforto homered off him, but that just narrowed the Padres’ lead from three runs to two. Suarez retired the other three batters he faced, striking out one. Yuki Matsui set him up by getting five outs while facing four batters; he got an inning-ending double play after taking over in the seventh. Odds are that Suarez will be decent enough in the closer’s role, but Matsui could make things interesting in San Diego. Rotoworld 23 minutes ago
  • Logan Webb strong for six versus Padres
    Logan Webb exited after allowing two runs in six innings Thursday versus the Padres.

    Advice: All five hits that Webb allowed were singles, and he struck out five. He walked two, but one of those was his first intentional free pass since 2020; he put Ha-Seong Kim on with two outs and a man on third in the sixth and then struck out José Azocar to finish his outing. Webb’s next outing will come Tuesday against the Dodgers. Rotoworld 24 minutes ago
