    • Kodai Senga (shoulder) to face hitters next week
      Kodai Senga (shoulder) is scheduled to face hitters on Monday in a live batting practice session.

      Advice: Senga remains unlikely to make his season debut until late May, at the earliest, but this latest development represents a massive step forward in his rehabilitation process from a shoulder injury that sent him to the injured list back in spring training. Rotoworld Today, 4:42 am

    • Kyle Bradish strikes out six on Friday at Triple-A
      Kyle Bradish (elbow) recorded six strikeouts and surrendered one run over five innings on Friday in a minor league rehab start for Triple-A Norfolk.

      Advice: Bradish appears to be on the precipice of returning to Baltimore’s starting rotation after throwing 77 pitches (49 strikes) over five frames in his latest rehab outing. It’s worth noting that the fastball velocity hasn’t totally rebounded to last year’s levels, but he still managed to induce 13 swinging strikes and finished with a respectable 32 percent CSW in this one. The 27-year-old righty has made a lightning-quick recovery from an offseason UCL sprain in his right elbow and should be rostered in all fantasy formats on the heels of last year’s breakthrough campaign.

    • Marcus Semien homers in eighth to lead Rangers
      Marcus Semien hit his fifth homer Friday as the Rangers bested the Reds 2-1.

      Advice: Semien nearly had two homers, but his 410-foot drive to center in the fifth, which Statcast said would have been gone in 18 parks, was caught at the wall. The actual homer was hit 392 feet and broke a 1-1 tie in the eighth. It gave hm 19 runs scored and 20 RBI in 27 games, even though it doesn’t seem like either he or the Rangers offense as a whole has really caught fire yet. Rotoworld Yesterday, 11:22 pm
       
    • Nathan Eovaldi doesn’t let walks get him down
      Despite walking five, Nathan Eovaldi allowed just one run over six innings Friday against the Reds.

      Advice: All three hits Eovaldi allowed were singles, and he struck out eight. Eovaldi wasn’t involved in the decision, so he remains 1-2 with a 3.00 ERA through six starts. He’s due to face the Nationals next. Rotoworld Yesterday, 11:22 pm
       
    • Dealing with hamstring spasms
      Manager Torey Lovullo said Friday that Gallen was removed from his start against the Mariners due to spasms in his right hamstring, Steve Gilbert of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: The Diamondbacks will continue to monitor Gallen's condition, but the expectation is that he will be fine and may not even have to miss his next start, which is slated for Wednesday. The right-hander surrendered three earned runs across five-plus innings Friday before exiting in the sixth frame, giving him a 3.38 ERA through his first six starts.

    • Zac Gallen leaves start with hamstring tightness
      Zac Gallen was pulled from Friday evening’s start against the Mariners mid at-bat in the sixth inning due to tightness in his right hamstring.

      Advice: With as bad as it looked initially on the field, it’s actually encouraging that it’s not an elbow, shoulder or oblique issue that the 28-year-old right-hander is dealing with. The severity of the injury still isn’t known, but there’s a possibility that he may not even require a trip to the injured list. A lot will probably depend on how he wakes up feeling on Saturday, but for now fantasy managers and Diamondbacks’ fans can breathe a sigh of relief. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:50 pm
       
    • Exits with trainer
      Gallen was removed from Friday's game against the Mariners due to right hamstring tightness, Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic reports.

      Advice: It's not immediately apparent how severe Gallen's injury is, but the Diamondbacks should offer more information following Friday's contest. The 28-year-old right-hander was able to get through five frames Friday while surrendering three earned runs on three hits and a walk, striking out three batters.

    • Zac Gallen exits start in sixth inning with injury
      Zac Gallen was removed from Friday night’s start against the Mariners in the sixth inning due to an apparent injury.

      Advice: It’s unclear exactly what occurred, but Gallen clearly didn’t feel right after delivering a pitch in the sixth inning, prompting a visit from the training staff and his eventual removal from the game. He had allowed two runs on three hits and a walk over his five-plus innings of work before departing. Expect the Diamondbacks to provide an update on their star right-hander’s status as soon as possible. Rotoworld Yesterday, 8:00 pm
       
    • José Buttó gives up two homers in loss to Cards
      José Buttó took his first loss after giving up four runs in 5 2/3 innings Friday against the Cardinals.

      Advice: Buttó allowed just four hits, but two of them were long homers that accounted for all of the runs. The three-run homer from Alec Burleson in the second scored baserunners who had reached on a HBP and a walk. Control was the concern with Butto going in. There’s still a lot to like here, but that he’s walked 12 and hit three batters in 22 innings is rather discouraging. Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:45 pm
