  • Rehab assignment coming
    Rodriguez (back) is scheduled to make a rehab appearance at Triple-A Buffalo on Tuesday, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.

    Advice: After throwing off a mound earlier this week, Rodriguez is set to make his first rehab appearance Tuesday. He made four starts prior to his back flaring up, but it's unclear if he'll reclaim his rotation spot once he's back with the Blue Jays. Rotowire.com Today, 1:44 pm
     
  • Slated for rehab assignment
    Green (shoulder) is expected to make a rehab appearance Sunday with Triple-A Buffalo, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.

    Advice: Green has been nursing a right shoulder strain since mid-April but seems close to returning to the big-league roster. Assuming he doesn't endure any setbacks, Green could rejoin the Blue Jays before the end of the month. Rotowire.com Today, 1:40 pm
     
  • Slated to throw Monday
    Walker (toe) is scheduled to do some throwing Monday, Corey Seidman of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

    Advice: Walker had to depart Thursday's start against the Mets after a comebacker caught his left foot and injured a toe. He was not able to move the toe Thursday but is feeling better Friday. Walker's status for his next start -- tentatively slated for Wednesday at home versus the Rangers -- is up in the air. Rotowire.com Today, 1:32 pm
     
  • Starts playing catch
    Bautista (elbow) played catch Friday, Danielle Allentuck of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.

    Advice: Bautista is continuing to rehab from Tommy John Surgery back in October of 2023 and an additional surgery in February. While a 2024 return hasn't been ruled out and Friday's update is encouraging, it's highly unlikely Bautista will be ready this season. Rotowire.com Today, 1:29 pm
     
  • Sent to minors
    Dubin was optioned to Triple-A Sugar Land on Friday, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: Less than 24 hours after making his first career big-league save, Dubin was sent down to Triple-A in a corresponding move to Parker Mushinski's call-up. In 13.2 innings with the Astros, Dubin logged a 6.59 ERA with a 13:7 K:BB. Rotowire.com Today, 1:22 pm
     
  • Starting rehab stint
    Devenski (knee) began a rehab assignment at Triple-A Durham on Friday.

    Advice: Devenski will take the next step in his recovery from right knee tendinitis, an injury that's kept him sidelined since April 24. It's unclear how long of a rehab assignment he'll need, but he's on track to return before the end of May. Rotowire.com Today, 1:17 pm
     
  • Activation expected Saturday
    Johnson (elbow) is expected to be reinstated from the 15-day IL on Saturday, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: After throwing a live bullpen session Wednesday, Johnson was expected to be activated prior to Friday's series opener against the Padres. However, he'll get one more day for recovery before rejoining the active roster Saturday. Friday's contest is the first of 17 straight, so Johnson's likely to see plenty of opportunities once available. Rotowire.com Today, 1:05 pm
     
  • Sent back down
    Harris was optioned to Triple-A Las Vegas on Friday.

    Advice: Harris was called up Wednesday and fired off 3.1 scoreless frames Thursday against the Astros. However, he'll go right back to Triple-A on Friday to make room for Brandon Bielak, who was acquired via trade Thursday. In 25 innings at Las Vegas, Harris owns a 7.56 ERA with 23 walks allowed.

  • Drawing start Friday
    Spence will start Friday in Kansas City, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: It will be the first major-league start for Spence, who has posted a 4.26 ERA and 22:7 K:BB over 25.1 innings covering 11 relief appearances. The Rule 5 pick will be pitching on three days' rest after allowing two runs over two-thirds of an inning on Monday in Houston. Spence has gone three-plus frames in six of his appearances, which includes a season-long 4.2-inning outing on May 5 versus the Marlins. However, this could wind up being a piggyback situation, with Kyle Muller also available to go multiple innings. Rotowire.com Today, 11:18 am
