    • Ends up on injured list
      The Astros placed McCormick on the 10-day injured list Wednesday due to right hamstring discomfort, retroactive to Sunday, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Manager Joe Espada said Wednesday that the Astros were debating placing McCormick on the injured list, and the team ultimately decided sitting him down for another week is the best course of action. The 29-year-old outfielder likely won't require more than a minimum stay on the IL, so he may be able to return to the lineup when eligible May 8. Jacob Amaya was recalled from Triple-A Sugar Land in a corresponding move. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 4:33 pm

    • Astros place Chas McCormick on 10-day IL
      Astros placed OF Chas McCormick on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to April 28, with a right hamstring strain.

      Advice: Astros’ manager Joe Espada had mentioned earlier in the day that McCormick may need a stint on the injured list, and after attempting to go through a pregame workout on Wednesday the determination was made. Jacob Amaya was recalled from Triple-A Sugar Land in a corresponding move on Wednesday. Rotoworld Wednesday, 4:19 pm

    • Getting Wednesday off
      Naylor is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Astros.

      Advice: Naylor started at catcher in each of the past three games, so he's presumably just getting a rest day Wednesday. David Fry will get the nod behind the plate in Naylor's place. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 4:06 pm

    • Astros consider IL stint for McCormick (hamstring)
      Astros’ manager Joe Espada admitted Wednesday that they’re considering a stint on the injured list for Chas McCormick (hamstring).

      Advice: McCormick is available to pinch-hit on Wednesday, but it sounds like if he doesn’t improve very soon that he’ll wind up on the shelf for a while. Trey Cabbage was recalled from Triple-A Sugar Land on Wednesday to add depth to their outfield. Rotoworld Wednesday, 3:10 pm

    • IL stint possible
      McCormick (hamstring) remains out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Guardians, and the Astros are considering placing him on the injured list, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: No official move has been made just yet, but manager Joe Espada said there have been conversations about whether or not to put the 29-year-old on the shelf. Though McCormick won't start Wednesday, he'll be available to hit, per Brian McTaggart of MLB.com, despite still having issues with his hamstring. Joey Loperfido will get the nod in left field and bat eighth in McCormick's stead. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 2:15 pm

    • Gets rare day off
      Bogaerts is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Reds.

      Advice: Bogaerts will hit the bench for just the second time all season in what appears to be a routine maintenance day after he had started each of the past 16 games. Tyler Wade will step in for Bogaerts at second base and will bat ninth. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 11:56 am
       
    • Converts 10th save
      Suarez pitched a perfect ninth inning to lock down his 10th save of the year in a 6-4 win over the Reds on Tuesday. He struck out one.

      Advice: Suarez continues to let Padres fans live in peace about letting Josh Hader walk this past offseason. He's now a perfect 10-for-10 in save opportunities and is tied with Ryan Helsley atop the league. Suarez now owns an 0.71 ERA, 0.87 WHIP and 11:4 K:BB in 12.2 innings. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 5:01 am
    • Goes five innings in rehab start
      Buehler (elbow) tossed five innings in a minor-league rehab appearance with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Tuesday, allowing one run on seven hits and no walks while striking out five batters.

      Advice: Buehler tossed 75 pitches in the outing, 11 fewer than he threw in his previous appearance. However, he completed five frames for the first time since beginning his rehab stint March 31. The right-hander's fastball topped out at 94.6 miles per hour, so he's not quite back to the velocity he displayed prior to his Tommy John surgery in August 2022. Nonetheless, Tuesday's start -- his sixth in the minors this season -- may have been Buehler's final step before rejoining the big-league rotation, as Dodgers manager Dave Roberts suggested prior to the outing that the hurler could make his next appearance with the big club, per Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic.

    • Robert Suarez gets 10th save in 10 chances
      Robert Suarez earned his 10th save with a perfect ninth against the Reds on Tuesday.

      Advice: The Padres haven’t missed Josh Hader thus far, though it would have been nice if they had redistributed Hader’s money to the offense. Suarez is 10-for-10 saving games with a 0.71 ERA in 12 2/3 innings. Rotoworld Tuesday, 10:05 pm
