  • Finnegan picks up 20th save Sunday
    Kyle Finnegan threw a scoreless ninth inning and picked up the save against the Marlins on Sunday.



    Advice: The save was Finnegan’s 20th of the season. He’s only blown two save opportunities so far this season and lowered his ERA to 1.78. Finnegan has come out of nowhere to be one of the best closers in fantasy this year.

  • Ryan Helsley nabs league-leading 24th save
    Ryan Helsley closed out the Cubs on Sunday. He struck out one, walked two, and stranded both runners on base.

    Advice: Helsely got into some trouble in the ninth inning and was bailed out by Brendan Donovan who made a catch crashing into the ivy at Wrigley Field to end the game. Helsley is fully back to being one of the best closers in baseball after an injury-marred 2023 season. Rotoworld Today, 1:06 pm
     
  • Shifts to 60-day IL
    The Dodgers transferred Kelly (shoulder) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Sunday.

    Advice: As a result of the transaction, Kelly won't be eligible to return to the Dodgers bullpen until the first week of July. The right-hander threw a 25-pitch bullpen session Friday, so he already seems to be making good progress in his recovery from the right shoulder strain that has kept him out of action since May 6. He could be cleared to begin a minor-league rehab assignment later this week or next. Rotowire.com Today, 12:38 pm

  • Shut down with lat injury
    The Dodgers placed Grove on the 15-day injured list Sunday with a right lat injury, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.

    Advice: Grove presumably sustained the injury during his two-inning relief appearance in Saturday's 7-2 loss to the Royals. He gave up a run in the outing for a third consecutive appearance and now holds a 5.06 ERA over 37.1 innings on the season. Rotowire.com Today, 12:36 pm

  • Matz (back) strikes out five in rehab start
    Steven Metz (back) threw three scoreless innings and struck out five in a rehab start for Double-A Springfield.

    Advice: That’s his third rehab start as he works his way back from the back injury. He didn’t allow a baserunner and showed off his swing-and-miss stuff; albeit against Double-A hitters. Matz could make one more rehab start, but he looks ready to rejoin the St. Louis rotation as well. Rotoworld Today, 12:35 pm

  • Back in big leagues
    The Dodgers recalled Feyereisen from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Sunday.

    Advice: Feyereisen and right-hander Michael Petersen will join the Los Angeles bullpen for the series finale versus the Royals, providing the club with some much-needed fresh arms in the bullpen after five Dodgers relievers covered the final seven innings of Saturday's 7-2 loss. Over his nine appearances with the Dodgers this season, Feyereisen has submitted a 6.00 ERA and 1.33 WHIP. Rotowire.com Today, 12:30 pm
     
  • Joe Kelly (shoulder) moved to 60-day injured list
    Dodgers transferred Joe Kelly from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day injured list.

    Advice: Kelly, 36, will not be eligible to return to the Dodgers now until July 6. The move clears a spot on the 40-man roster for Michael Petersen. Kelly is likely back around the All-Star break based on how his rehab is currently progressing. Rotoworld Today, 12:16 pm

  • Dodgers recall J.P. Feyereisen from Oklahoma City
    Dodgers recalled RHP J.P. Feyereisen from Triple-A Oklahoma City.

    Advice: Feyereisen is up with Yoshinobu Yamamoto (triceps) officially placed on the injured list. Feyereisen has made the trip from OKC to Los Angeles a few times, and will likely be a middle-relief option in this stint. Rotoworld Today, 12:12 pm
     
  • Michael Grove (lat) heading to injured list
    Dodgers placed RHP Michael Grove on the 15-day injured list with a right intercostal strain.

    Advice: Grove joins Yoshinobu Yamamoto (triceps) on the injured list prior to Sunday’s finale against the Royals. Grove will be out at least two weeks, but a more firm timetable should be provided in the coming days. Rotoworld Today, 11:54 am
