• Recalled by Oakland
    The Athletics recalled Harris from Triple-A Las Vegas on Monday.

    Advice: The move corresponds with Oakland placing right-hander Joe Boyle (back) on the 15-day IL. Harris has a 1-1 record over six starts in Triple-A this season with a 9.00 ERA, 1.95 WHIP and 21:20 K:BB over 21 innings with Las Vegas. He appeared in 14 games with the Athletics last season, finishing with a 3-6 record while posting a 7.14 ERA and 1.51 WHIP over 63 frames. Rotowire.com 6 minutes ago
     
  • Moved to IL
    The Athletics placed Boyle on the 15-day IL on Monday due to a lower back strain.

    Advice: Boyle struggled in his start Sunday against the Marlins, allowing four runs on one hit and three walks over one frame. The right-hander noted after the game that he tried to pitch through the lower back pain, but it "got progressively worse as I went on," per MLB.com. Boyle will be eligible to return for the start of the A's series against the Rockies on May 21. In a corresponding move, Oakland recalled left-hander Hogan Harris from Triple-A Las Vegas.

  • Athletics recall Hogan Harris from Las Vegas
    Athletics recalled LHP Hogan Harris from Triple-A Las Vegas.

    Advice: Harris, 27, has made six starts with the Aviators with an abhorrent 9.00 ERA and 1.95 WHIP. He takes the place of Joe Boyle after Boyle was placed on the injured list with a back injury, and while he could make starts, there’s no logical reason for adding Harris to a fantasy roster.

  • Joe Boyle placed on injured list with back strain
    Athletics placed RHP Joe Boyle on the 15-day injured list with a back strain.

    Advice: Boyle has really struggled so far in 2024, but it’ll be injury that keeps the 24-year-old from contributing in the rotation. He’ll miss at least two weeks with Hogan Harris taking his spot on the roster. Boyle can be dropped in fantasy leagues, if that hasn’t already taken place. Rotoworld 16 minutes ago

  • Cubs activate Steele (hamstring) for start Monday
    Cubs activated Justin Steele off the 15-day injured list.

    Advice: Steele is off the IL and will be the starter for the Cubs on Monday against the Royals. The left-hander made one rehab start while recovering from his hamstring trouble, but he should be stretched out enough to provide fantasy value in the coming weeks. Rotoworld 35 minutes ago

  • Garrett (shoulder) whiffs 13 in rehab start
    Braxton Garrett (shoulder) struck out 13 batters over 5 2/3 innings in a rehab start Monday in the Florida Complex League.

    Advice: Garrett didn’t allow a run and gave up just one hit. It’s really not fair to FCL hitters they had to face a talent like the 26-year-old, but the Marlins wanted Garrett to get one more rehab start. His next outing should come at the MLB level. Rotoworld 51 minutes ago
     
  • Likely to get start Wednesday
    Bido will be recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas and is likely to start one of the games during Wednesday's doubleheader against the Rangers, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Bido has been really good this season with Vegas in a difficult pitching environment, posting a 2.59 ERA and 39:13 K:BB across 31.1 innings of work. The 28-year-old didn't have as much luck during his time with the Pirates last season with a 5.86 ERA in 50.2 frames, and his minor-league track record is hit-or-miss. Rotowire.com 52 minutes ago

  • A.J. Puk (shoulder) whiffs two in rehab appearance
    A.J. Puk (shoulder) struck out two batters over a scoreless inning in a rehab appearance Monday in the Florida Complex League.

    Advice: Puk is going to work out of the bullpen whenever he comes back from his shoulder injury, and the left-hander has looked solid thus far in his rehab appearances. The 29-year-old has had success in that relief role, and if the Marlins were to move closer Taylor Scott — something that has been rumored as of late — he could be inline for save chances.

  • Strikes out 13 in rehab start
    Garrett (shoulder) struck out 13 batters and allowed one hit and one walk over 5.2 scoreless innings in his rehab start Monday for the Marlins' rookie-level Florida Complex League affiliate.

    Advice: Though he was facing off against a lineup consisting mostly of teenage hitters, Garrett was dominant nonetheless in what was likely his fifth and final minor-league rehab start. Garrett, who has been on the 15-day injured list all season while recovering from a left shoulder impingement, will likely be activated this weekend to start Saturday or Sunday versus the Phillies for what will be his 2024 debut with the Marlins.
