  • Working back from shoulder sprain
    Triple-A Toledo placed Flores on its 7-day injured list May 14 with an AC joint sprain in his right shoulder.

    Advice: Per Evan Petzold, Flores threw a bullpen session Saturday, so he may not be far away from making his return from the 7-day IL. Prior to sustaining the injury, Flores compiled a 6.04 ERA, 1.86 WHIP and 19:19 K:BB across 22.1 innings over his 13 relief appearances for Toledo. Rotowire.com Today, 5:52 pm
     
  • Allows two runs in no-decision
    Manaea did not factor into the decision Sunday, allowing two runs, five hits and a walk over five innings against the Giants. He struck out six.

    Advice: Manaea threw 88 pitches, allowing single runs in the second and third innings prior to exiting the game after five innings. He was in line for a tough-luck loss but was bailed out when the Mets scored three in the bottom of the ninth for the come-from-behind victory. Manaea entered the game on six days rest and tallied his seventh-consecutive start of allowing three or fewer runs. Through 10 starts, Manaea has a solid ERA of 3.16 with a 1.29 WHIP and 47 strikeouts over 51.1 innings. His next start is tentatively scheduled to take place next weekend when the Mets travel to Arizona to take on the Diamondbacks. Rotowire.com Today, 5:46 pm

  • Solid versus Boston
    Myers pitched 4.1 innings Sunday against Boston, allowing one earned run on six hits and zero walks. He struck out four and did not factor into the decision.

    Advice: The 25-year-old got his first start since being called up Tuesday, taking the place of Joe Ross (back) in the Brewers rotation. Myers pitched well, not allowing a home run for the first time in five starts this season and improving his shaky 10:8 K:BB ratio. With five Brewers starters on the IL, Myers could stick in the rotation for the time being, especially if he continues to pitch like he did Sunday. Rotowire.com Today, 5:39 pm
     
  • Throws seven high-quality innings
    Webb did not factor into the decision Sunday, allowing one run (none earned) on three hits and a walk over seven innings against the Mets. He struck out eight.

    Advice: The lone unearned run Webb allowed was set up by his own error, but he was lights-out otherwise with a season-high eight strikeouts and left the game in line for the win. The outing dropped Webb's ERA to 2.74 with a 1.26 WHIP across 72.1 innings. His next scheduled start is slated for next weekend when the Giants host the Yankees. Rotowire.com Today, 5:29 pm
     
  • Throws side session
    Manager Stephen Vogt said that Carrasco (neck) completed an "up-down" bullpen session Sunday and is "feeling a lot better," MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Carrasco is already back on the mound after he was placed on the 15-day injured list five days earlier with an acute neck spasm. Assuming his neck doesn't provide any further complications in his subsequent throwing sessions, Carrasco could make his return from the IL around when he's first eligible to return in early June.

  • Completes live BP session
    Williams (elbow) threw a live batting practice session Friday and will throw another live BP in the coming days, MLB.com reports.

    Advice: If all goes well during Williams' upcoming live BP session, manager Stephen Vogt said the right-hander would head out on a minor-league rehab assignment later this week. Williams has been on the shelf all season with right elbow discomfort, which first surfaced when he made an awkward throw during a weighted-ball workout in spring training.

  • Tobias Myers lifted in fifth against Red Sox
    Tobias Myers allowed one run over 4 1/3 innings versus the Red Sox on Sunday.

    Advice: Myers allowed six hits, but five were singles and the defense wasn’t much help. He struck out four and walked none. He should remain in the rotation and face the White Sox next time out, making a decent play in deeper leagues. Rotoworld Today, 5:18 pm
     
  • Bryan Woo delivers quality start against Nationals
    Bryan Woo pitched six innings and allowed three runs Sunday versus the Nationals.

    Advice: Woo got just three missed swings and one strikeout today, but he proved moderately effective in allowing only five hard-hit balls and five hits. The lone extra-base hit he gave up was a solo shot to Joey Gallo. Woo will face the Angels at home next weekend, making him a solid play in mixed leagues. Rotoworld Today, 4:59 pm

  • Patrick Corbin gives up four runs in no-decision
    Patrick Corbin surrendered four runs — three earned - in six innings Sunday in a no-decision against the Mariners.

    Advice: Corbin gave up two homers and left with his team down by a run, but he avoided a loss after the Nationals scored twice in the seventh, only to give up five runs later. Corbin has a 6.12 ERA after 11 turns. Since he’s in the last year of his contract, he might finally lose his job later this season. Still, someone needs to emerge as a viable replacement first.
