    • Aaron Ashby might start Wednesday vs. Phillies
      Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports Aaron Ashby could start on Wednesday against the Phillies.

      Advice: Ashby has already joined the Brewers in Philadelphia and appears to be an option to take the ball for Wednesday’s series finale at Citizens Bank Park. The 26-year-old lefty hasn’t been lights-out this season at Triple-A Nashville, but Milwaukee doesn’t have a ton of options with Robert Gasser (elbow), Joe Ross (back), Jakob Junis (shoulder, head) and DL Hall (knee) all sidelined due to injury.

    • Clayton Kershaw (shoulder) targeting midseason return
      Clayton Kershaw (shoulder) faced hitters last weekend in a simulated game at Dodger Stadium.

      Advice: Kershaw is ahead of schedule in his rehabilitation process from offseason shoulder surgery and appears likely to be ready for a midseason return to Los Angeles’ starting rotation mix. The 36-year-old southpaw should be ready for a two-inning simulated game at Single-A Rancho Cucamonga at some point this week. Rotoworld 21 minutes ago
       
    • Jakob Junis completes two frames Tuesday at AAA
      Jakob Junis (shoulder, head) struck out three over two perfect innings on Tuesday in a minor league rehab start for Triple-A Nashville.

      Advice: Junis threw 21 pitches in his first rehab outing and will likely require a handful of additional appearances prior to rejoining Milwaukee’s starting rotation mix. The 31-year-old righty has been out since early April due to a shoulder ailment and also suffered a head injury back in late April when he was hit by a ball during batting practice.

    • Report: Chris Martin nursing left shoulder issue
      MassLive.com’s Chris Cotillo reports Chris Martin is dealing with a lingering left shoulder issue.

      Advice: Martin will avoid a trip to the injured list for the moment, but the Red Sox have reliever Zack Kelly with the club on their taxi squad just in case. The 38-year-old righty could wind up on the shelf at some point in the coming days, but for the moment he remains on Boston’s active roster. Rotoworld 42 minutes ago
       
    • Could start Wednesday vs. Phillies
      Ashby joined the Brewers' taxi squad in Philadelphia and could be formally called up from Triple-A Nashville to start or work as a bulk reliever in Wednesday's game in Philadelphia, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

      Advice: Ashby appears poised to slide into the rotation spot that belonged to Robert Gasser, who is awaiting a second opinion on his sore elbow and is expected to land on the 15-day injured list and miss out on at least a couple of starts. In his lone start for Milwaukee this season back on April 9 in Cincinnati, Ashby was blitzed for eight runs (four earned) in 3.2 innings. Upon returning to Nashville after that game, Ashby continued to struggle in his subsequent seven outings at Triple-A (9.54 ERA, 2.54 WHIP and 30:30 K:BB in 26.1 innings), but he's righted the ship over his past two starts. He delivered his best performance of the season in his most recent of the two starts last Friday versus Memphis, striking out five over seven scoreless frames while allowing two hits and three walks. With Gasser set to go on the shelf and the Brewers still waiting on Joe Ross (back), Jakob Junis (shoulder) and DL Hall (knee) to return from the IL, Ashby could be in store for multiple turns through the rotation if he fares reasonably well Wednesday.

    • Facing hitters Wednesday
      Rangers manager Bruce Bochy said that Mahle (elbow) will face live hitters Wednesday, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Bochy noted that Wednesday's workout will be the first of four live batting practice sessions that Mahle will complete as he works his way back from his May 22, 2023 Tommy John surgery. If Mahle incurs no setbacks during the live sessions, he'll likely then head out on a minor-league rehab assignment that could last close to the maximum 30 days. Mahle looks to be tracking around a return from the 60-day injured list at some point shortly after the All-Star break. Rotowire.com Today, 4:28 pm
       
    • O’s finalize minor league pact with Julio Teheran
      Orioles signed RHP Julio Teheran to a minor league contract.

      Advice: The deal is now official. Teheran fortifies Baltimore’s injury-depleted starting rotation with some additional depth, but doesn’t offer much appeal for fantasy managers. The 33-year-old journeyman right-hander is an option to take the ball for Thursday’s series finale against the Blue Jays. Rotoworld Today, 4:24 pm
       
    • Phillies sticking with Taijuan Walker amid struggles
      Phillies manager Rob Thomson confirmed Tuesday that Taijuan Walker will remain in the starting rotation.

      Advice: Walker receives yet another vote of confidence from Thomson as he’ll keep his rotation spot over Spencer Turnbull, who has been a revelation this season in his Phillies debut and will continue operating in long relief. The 31-year-old righty, who is in the second year of a four-year, $72 million contract, will take the ball on Sunday against the Mets in London his next time out. Rotoworld Today, 4:12 pm
       
    • Tommy John surgery scheduled
      Javier (forearm) is scheduled to undergo Tommy John surgery Thursday, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: The right-hander landed on the injured list in late May due to right forearm discomfort and is now set to miss the rest of the 2024 campaign. Javier will also be sidelined until at least the second half of 2025 as he rehabs from the surgery. It's been a rough week for Houston pitchers, as Jose Urquidy (elbow) is also in danger of needing the procedure. Rotowire.com Today, 3:47 pm
