  • Cade Cavalli (elbow) throws 60-pitch bullpen session
    Cade Cavalli (elbow) threw a 60-pitch bullpen session on Tuesday.

    Advice: Cavalli remains stationed on the 60-day injured list until at least late May, but there’s a chance he’s ready to make his season debut at some point shortly afterwards. The 25-year-old righty has been out since last spring recovering from Tommy John surgery. Rotoworld 1 minute ago

  • Josiah Gray (elbow) progressing towards return
    Josiah Gray (elbow) has progressed to flat-ground throwing from a distance of 75 feet.

    Advice: Gray is basically being built up from scratch again after landing on the injured list back in early April with a forearm flexor strain in his right elbow. The 26-year-old right-hander is still multiple weeks away from returning to Washington’s starting rotation. Rotoworld 2 minutes ago

  • Closing in on rehab assignment
    Topa (knee) threw a 20-pitch live batting practice session Tuesday, Bobby Nightengale of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

    Advice: Everything seemed to go as hoped, which means Topa should be able to begin a rehab assignment any day now. He's been out since late March with left patellar tendinitis and figures to require a handful of rehab appearances before being activated. Rotowire.com 11 minutes ago

  • Out of Tuesday's lineup
    Grossman is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game at Minnesota.

    Advice: Grossman has a .526 OPS in 53 plate appearances this season and will sit Tuesday for the third time in Chicago's past five games. The veteran outfielder's time with the White Sox could be up soon if the organization elects to promote Tommy Pham. Rotowire.com 12 minutes ago
     
  • Set for rehab assignment
    Ibanez (hamstring) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Toledo on Wednesday, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.

    Advice: Ibanez went through a full workout Tuesday and didn't have any issues, clearing the way for him to play in rehab games. He's missed just over two weeks of action with a left hamstring strain and shouldn't need many rehab at-bats before being activated. Rotowire.com 13 minutes ago

  • Out again Tuesday
    Alexander (hamstring) remains out of the lineup for Tuesday's contest in St. Louis.

    Advice: Alexander tweaked his right hamstring Sunday and has now missed two straight starts. He was reportedly available off the bench Monday, so it shouldn't be long before he's ready to return to the lineup. However, with a team off day coming Thursday, the Diamondbacks might elect to hold him out until Friday. Kevin Newman will be at shortstop again Tuesday. Rotowire.com 19 minutes ago
     
  • Day off against left-hander
    Carroll is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game in St. Louis.

    Advice: Left-hander Steven Matz is toeing the rubber for the Cardinals, so it's not a bad time to give the left-batting Carroll a day off as he goes through a season-opening slump. Carroll is slashing just .175/.298/.175 over his last 10 games. Jake McCarthy will play center field and Randal Grichuk will be in right Tuesday. Rotowire.com 21 minutes ago
     
  • Sits versus southpaw
    Outman is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game at Washington, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.

    Advice: Outman has started just once against a left-handed pitcher this season, so it's not a surprise he's on the bench Tuesday as southpaw Patrick Corbin pitches for the Nationals. Andy Pages will shift to center field while Enrique Hernandez and Teoscar Hernandez handle the corner outfield spots. Rotowire.com 22 minutes ago
