    • Back from illness, starting Friday
      Maeda (illness) was reinstated from the 15-day injured list and will start Friday against the Blue Jays.

      Advice: Maeda was previously expected to rejoin Detroit's rotation Saturday or Sunday, but he'll instead take the mound Friday. The right-handed veteran has started seven games this season and has a 1-1 record with a 6.75 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and 23:10 K:BB over 30.2 innings. Rotowire.com 56 minutes ago
       
    • Maeda activated, to start Friday
      Tigers activated RHP Kenta Maeda from the 15-day injured list on Friday.

      Advice: Maeda will start Friday’s game against the Blue Jays with Matt Manning optioned to Triple-A Toledo. Maeda is returning from a 15-day stint on the injured list with a viral illness. He has a 6.75 ERA and 1.40 WHIP in seven starts with Detroit this year. Rotoworld Today, 12:14 pm
       
    • Reaches double-digit steals
      Volpe went 2-for-5 with a double, a run and a stolen base against the Mariners in Thursday's 5-0 victory.

      Advice: Volpe led off the seventh inning with a double, stole third base and subsequently scored on a Juan Soto single. It was the 10th theft in 12 tries for Volpe, who has now reached double-digit steals in each of his first two MLB campaigns. The shortstop is on pace to exceed last year's numbers in most categories except power -- he has six homers through 51 contests after going deep 21 times in 159 games last season -- and his .278/.349/.429 slash line highlights his substantial growth at the plate.

    • Records third steal
      Albies went 1-for-3 with a walk, one RBI and a stolen base in Thursday's 3-0 win over the Cubs.

      Advice: Albies is hitting well, going 11-for-40 (.275) over his last 10 games, though he has just one extra-base hit, a double, in that span. The second baseman is slashing .269/.330/.388 with three home runs, three steals, 23 RBI, 22 runs scored and 10 doubles over 39 contests on the year. He's locked into a starting role, but the lack of counting stats is a small concern for a player that has hit 20-plus homers four times in the last six years. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:40 pm
       
    • Locks down 12th save
      Iglesias struck out two in a perfect inning to earn the save in Thursday's 3-0 win over the Cubs.

      Advice: Iglesias has converted his last four save chances since a blown save May 3 versus the Dodgers. He's allowed two runs on five hits and two walks over his last six innings, so it hasn't been the smoothest of stretches for the veteran closer. On the year, he's 12-for-14 in save chances with a 2.33 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 14:5 K:BB over 19.1 innings. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:13 pm
       
    • To miss at least one month
      White Sox GM Chris Getz said Thursday that Jimenez (hamstring) is expected to miss around a month, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Jimenez was placed on the injured list Wednesday with a hamstring but no exact timeline for his return was disclosed. After missing two weeks to start April with a similar issue, Jimenez will face a longer absence this time around. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:17 pm

    • Grifol: Eloy Jiménez (hamstring) out 4-6 weeks
      White Sox manager Pedro Grifol told reporters Thursday that Eloy Jiménez (hamstring) is likely to miss 4-6 weeks.

      Advice: It sounds like Jiménez is going to miss at least one month, if not longer, due to a left hamstring strain that he suffered earlier this week. The 27-year-old hasn’t gotten going at the dish this season after a strong spring training performance, posting a lackluster .668 OPS with five homers in 146 plate appearances. He can be safely dropped in all re-draft fantasy formats at this juncture. Rotoworld Yesterday, 3:03 pm

    • Due for extended absence
      Manager Pedro Grifol didn't have a specific timeline Thursday for Jimenez's (hamstring) return, but the skipper said it would be an extended absence, Vinnie Duber of AllCHGO.com reports.

      Advice: Grifol guessed the absence would be a little shorter than that of Luis Robert, who has been sidelined the past seven weeks by a hip issue. Jimenez's injury occurred when he tweaked the hamstring while running the bases during Tuesday's game in Toronto, and he was placed on the injured list a day later after being diagnosed with a strain.

    • Raisel Iglesias fans two Thursday for 12th save
      Raisel Iglesias fired a perfect ninth inning on Thursday against the Cubs to collect his 12th save of the season.

      Advice: Iglesias received the call to protect a three-run lead in the final frame and required just 12 pitches (nine strikes) to end it. The 34-year-old veteran stopper has been one of the top closers in the entire fantasy landscape this season, converting 12 of 14 save chances to accompany a solid 2.33 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 14/5 K/BB ratio across 19 1/3 innings (20 appearances).
