  • Gunnar Henderson homers in win over Yanks
    Gunnar Henderson went 1-for-3 with a lead off home run in Monday’s game against the Yankees.

    Advice: Henderson got the O’s on the board early in the first frame with a solo shot that was 112.3 MPH off the bat, making it his hardest hit home run this season. It’s the 22-year-old’s 10th home run and third lead off home run this season. The reigning AL Rookie of the Year has been even better slashing .289/.352/.632 through 28 games in 2024.

  • CJ Abrams blasts two-run homer in win versus MIA
    CJ Abrams went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and two walks in a 7-2 win against the Marlins on Monday.

    Advice: The 23-year-old continues to have a solid season slashing .300/.381/.640 with seven home runs and 16 RBI. His two-run home run came in the third inning as Trevor Rogers left a fastball right down the center of the plate and Abrams did not miss. There was a lot of discussion if Abrams’ 2023 season was a bit of beginner’s luck, but the Nats’ shortstop is showing that last season was not a one-off. Rotoworld 40 minutes ago

  • Diagnosed with thumb sprain
    Anderson suffered a mild left thumb sprain during Monday's game against the Nationals, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Anderson will be considered day-to-day moving forward. Vidal Brujan would be in line for more playing time at shortstop if Anderson needs a few days off to recover. Rotowire.com Today, 5:09 pm

  • Tim Anderson leaves with left thumb sprain
    Tim Anderson left Monday’s game against the Nationals with a left thumb sprain.

    Advice: Anderson collided with Alex Call on a tag and looked to be in a significant amount of pain. The Marlins are calling Anderson day-to-day, but don’t be surprised if the 31-year-old misses at least a game while he recovers. Rotoworld Today, 4:49 pm

  • Exits early Monday
    Anderson was removed from Monday's game against the Nationals with an apparent left hand injury, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Anderson appeared to suffer the injury while playing the field, though the team has yet to provide an official update on his status.

  • Tim Anderson leaves Monday with apparent injury
    Tim Anderson left Monday’s game against the Nationals with an apparent injury.

    Advice: Anderson appeared to hurt his hand on a play that results in an Alex Call double. Anderson should be considered day-to-day for now, but Dane Myers has replaced the infielder, with Myers moving to the outfield and Vidal Brujan now in at shortstop. Rotoworld Today, 4:32 pm

  • Jackson Merrill not in lineup Monday vs. Reds
    Jackson Merrill is not in the starting lineup for Monday’s game against the Reds.

    Advice: Merrill returned to the lineup from his groin injury on Saturday and also played Sunday, so this appears to be a day of maintenance for the 21-year-old. Jose Azocar will play center and hit eighth Monday. Rotoworld Today, 3:52 pm
     
  • J.P. Crawford (oblique) taking grounders Monday
    J.P. Crawford (oblique) is taking grounders before Monday’s game against Atlanta.

    Advice: Crawford is expected to miss 2-3 weeks with his oblique injury, but it’s a positive development that the 29-year-old is taking part in infield practice before Monday’s game. It’s very likely that Crawford will need a rehab assignment before returning to the Seattle lineup late in May. Rotoworld Today, 3:25 pm

  • Tee work from both sides of plate
    Edman (wrist) took swings off a tee from both sides of the plate last week, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

    Advice: Edman had been limited to hitting only from the right side due to lingering concerns about his surgically repaired right wrist. However, he's now progressed to hitting from both sides of the dish and has done so without any soreness. Edman will continue a hitting progression as tolerated and appears far off from a return, but he's progressing. Rotowire.com Today, 3:18 pm
