• Lands on 15-day injured list
    The Mets placed Reid-Foley on the 15-day injured list Thursday, retroactive to March 25, with a right shoulder impingement.

  • Placed on 15-day IL
    The Blue Jays placed Romano on the 15-day injured list Thursday, retroactive to March 25, with right elbow inflammation.

    Advice: General manager Ross Atkins indicated recently that he's hopeful Romano will require only a minimum stay on the injured list, which would mean an activation on April 9. Romano has not yet resumed throwing off a mound, though, so he still has some hurdles to clear before Atkins' hopes are realized. Chad Green, Yimi Garcia and Tim Mayza are candidates for saves while Romano is out, with Erik Swanson (forearm) also potentially entering the mix if he beats Romano back from the IL.

  • D-backs place Paul Sewald (oblique) on 15-day IL
    Diamondbacks placed RHP Paul Sewald on the 15-day injured list, retroactive to March 25, with a left oblique strain.

    Advice: It’ll most likely be Kevin Ginkel handling the save chances for Arizona with Sewald sidelined to open the season with a Grade 2 left oblique strain. There isn’t a firm timetable yet for his potential return, but fantasy managers should expect him to miss at least a few weeks. Rotoworld 18 minutes ago

  • D-backs place E-Rod (shoulder) on 15-day IL
    Diamondbacks placed LHP Eduardo Rodriguez on the 15-day injured list, retroactive to March 25, with a left shoulder strain.

    Advice: Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo indicated earlier this week that Rodriguez is ahead of schedule in his recovery from a lat strain. The 30-year-old lefty doesn’t have a firm return timetable yet, but should be ready to make his Arizona debut at some point in April or May, barring any setbacks. Rotoworld 20 minutes ago
     
  • Throws bullpen session
    Scherzer (back) threw a bullpen session Tuesday, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Advice: It would appear to be the first time Scherzer has thrown off the mound since he underwent surgery in December to address a herniated disc in his back. Scherzer said that his pitching arm feels good and he estimated that he's in what would be the early February portion of his throwing program if he had been coming into a normal spring training rather than rehabbing from surgery. Rangers general manager Chris Young said Wednesday that there are no plans at this point to shift Scherzer to the 60-day injured list, per Buster Olney of ESPN, suggesting the veteran right-hander could be ready to rejoin the rotation before the end of May.
