  • 33-50-7 9th Place
    • Scheduled for live batters
      Gray (groin) is scheduled to face live hitters Monday, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: A clearer indication of when Gray could return from the 15-day injured list should emerge following Monday's session. At the time of his placement on the IL, the right-hander wasn't expected to miss much more than the minimum 15 days. Per Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News, Gray could be an option to rejoin the Texas rotation as soon as Friday versus the Giants if Monday's live session goes off without a hitch.

    • Throws bullpen
      Scherzer (back/arm) threw a bullpen session Saturday, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: After throwing about 25 pitches during Saturday's session, Scherzer gave a thumbs up when he arrived at the clubhouse Sunday. Depending on how he recovers and conversations with the training staff, Scherzer could face live batters Monday. Scherzer could then resume a rehab assignment soon thereafter.

    • Runs streak to seven games
      Fraley went 3-for-3 with a double, an RBI and a run scored in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Cubs.

      Advice: Fraley's double triggered a four-run second inning, putting the Reds on a path to win. He's hit in seven straight games, going 10-for-26 (.385) with two steals, two doubles, one RBI and three runs scored during the streak. While many of his teammates have slumped early in the season -- the Reds' .220 average ranks 29th in MLB -- Fraley leads the club at .295. Rotowire.com Today, 5:32 am
       
    • Launches first homer
      Friedl went 1-for-5 with a home run and three RBI in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Cubs.

      Advice: Friedl provided all the Reds would need in the second inning when he bopped a two-out, three-run home run to give Cincinnati a 4-0 lead. It was the first home run of the season for Friedl, who is coming back from a second stint on the injured list and played just 10 games. As he gets more plate appearances -- just 43 so far -- Friedl's timing should get better and improve on his .167 average. Rotowire.com Today, 5:25 am
       
    • Retires all six batters
      Martinez (2-0) did not allow a hit or walk while striking out three over two scoreless innings to earn the win over the Mets on Sunday.

      Advice: Martinez retired all six batters faced, including the eighth inning when he struck out the top of New York's batting order. It was a good series for Martinez, who threw five scoreless innings total, including a bullpen-saving three innings Thursday when starter Zac Gallen was removed just six pitches into the game. Martinez has not allowed a run in the last 14.2 innings. Rotowire.com Today, 5:17 am
       
    • Picks up first big-league win
      Klein (1-0) struck out one in a perfect inning to earn the win Sunday over the Padres.

      Advice: Klein worked the ninth inning while the Royals were down 3-1, and they rallied for a walk-off win in their half of the frame. The rookie right-hander has displayed some promise with five strikeouts over his first three innings in the majors, though he's also allowed two runs and four hits. Klein figures to operate in a low-leverage role as long as he's on the Royals' 26-man roster. He's pitched to a 1.93 ERA, 0.95 WHIP and 23:14 K:BB over 23.1 innings at Triple-A Omaha this season, showing significant growth from 2023. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:31 pm
       
    • Takes another loss
      Pressly (0-3) allowed an earned run on one hit and one walk across one inning to take the loss Sunday against the Twins.

      Advice: Pressly allowed a leadoff walk, which ultimately became the game-winning run for the Twins. He took his second loss in his last three appearances, and Pressly has allowed three earned runs in that span. Though he has had stretches of effectiveness this season, he now owns a 5.06 ERA and 1.59 WHIP across 21.1 innings. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:18 pm
       
    • Sent back to Triple-A
      Atlanta optioned Tromp to Triple-A Gwinnett following Sunday's 3-1 win over the Athletics.

      Advice: Tromp has seen limited usage as the No. 2 catcher behind Travis d'Arnaud for much of the season. He recently dropped to third on the depth chart behind Sean Murphy and d'Arnaud and hadn't played at all since Murphy was reinstated from the injured list Monday. The 29-year-old will now head back to Gwinnett to get regular playing time, with Atlanta set to announce a replacement for him on the 26-man active roster prior to Tuesday's series opener in Boston.

    • Nick Lodolo efficient in win over Cubs
      Nick Lodolo allowed two runs on seven hits in a win over the Cubs on Sunday.

      Advice: Lodolo struck out three and walked one on the day. Nothing he gave up was hit overly hard, but he also didn’t miss many bats either with just eight whiffs on 42 swings for a 19 percent whiff rate and 29 percent CSW. Still, he survived a solid Cubs offense and now has a 3.11 ERA heading into a rematch in Cincinnati next week. Rotoworld Yesterday, 2:25 pm
