    • Rangers place Max Scherzer (back) on 15-day IL
      Rangers placed Max Scherzer (back) on 15-day injured list.

      Advice: Rangers manager Bruce Bochy said that he hopes Scherzer can get back to action sometime in June, but there’s no definitive date for his return. The 39-year-old underwent back surgery in the offseason but resumed baseball activities a couple weeks ago. Once there’s more information about his return is when fantasy managers can realistically start thinking about rostering him in lineups. Rotoworld Today, 10:00 am

    • Placed on 60-day IL
      The Yankees placed Cole on the 60-day injured list Thursday with right elbow inflammation.

      Advice: The initial timetable for Cole's return from his right elbow injury was 1-to-2 months, but clearly it's going to be closer to the latter end of that span. The hope is that the reigning American League Cy Young winner will be ready to begin a throwing program in a couple weeks, but the Yankees will not rush what will be a slow and steady build-up.

    • Jackson Chourio to start in RF on Opening Day
      Jackson Chourio will start in right field for Friday’s Opening Day matchup against the Mets.

      Advice: Chourio will be in right field when Milwaukee kicks off the regular season on Friday at Citi Field against the Mets. The electrifying 20-year-old signed an eight-year, $82 million long-term deal with the Brewers during the offseason and projects as an immediate five-category impact fantasy contributor.

    • Reds place TJ Friedl (wrist) on 10-day IL
      Reds placed OF TJ Friedl on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to March 25, with a fractured right wrist.

      Advice: Friedl is likely to be sidelined until mid-to-late May after suffering a fractured right wrist earlier this month. There’s optimism that he’ll beat that initial return timetable, but fantasy managers shouldn’t expect him to make his season debut until early May in a best-case scenario.

    • Placed on injured list
      The Reds placed Friedl (wrist) on the 10-day injured list Wednesday.

      Advice: Friedl's fractured right wrist will cause him to miss the first month-plus of the season. However, it's worth noting that the Reds put him on the 10-day IL rather than the 60-day list, suggesting that the 28-year-old outfielder may be targeting the shorter end of his initial 6-to-8-week recovery timeline. Bubba Thompson was recalled from Triple-A Louisville in a corresponding move. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:13 pm

    • Dodgers, Will Smith finalize 10-year extension
      Dodgers signed C Will Smith to a 10-year, $140 million contract extension through 2033.

      Advice: The long-term agreement is now official. It’s the type of commitment that should theoretically make Smith a Dodger for life. The 28-year-old quickly established himself as one of the premier catchers in baseball upon arriving in the majors back in 2019 and remains an elite fantasy contributor at the position. He’s hit at least 19 homers in each of the last three years while maintaining a strong batting average and excellent counting stats for a backstop. It doesn’t change his long-term outlook much from a fantasy standpoint, but it does lock him into one of the best lineups in baseball for at least another decade. Rotoworld Yesterday, 2:11 pm
       
    • Plays catch Wednesday
      Scherzer (back) was spotted playing catch Wednesday, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports.

      Advice: Scherzer is in the initial stages of his throwing program as he makes his way back from his December surgery to address a herniated disc in his back. Manager Bruce Bochy said earlier this month that the organization is hopeful Scherzer will be ready to make his season debut at some point in June, though a clear target date for the right-hander's return probably won't come into focus until he reaches the point in his rehab where he's facing hitters.

    • Nabs 10-year extension
      Smith agreed Wednesday with the Dodgers on a 10-year, $140 million contract extension, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.

      Advice: Smith had been eligible for free agency after the 2025 season, but the extension -- the longest for a catcher in MLB history -- will keep him in Dodger blue through his age-38 campaign in 2033. Since posting a career-best .980 OPS in the pandemic-shortened 2020 season, Smith's OPS has dropped in each of the last three seasons, but his .797 mark in 2023 was still good for fifth among all backstops who logged at least 400 plate appearances. The 29-year-old got off to a strong start to the regular season during last week's Seoul Series, going 5-for-10 with a double, a walk, two RBI and one run in the Dodgers' two games versus the Padres. Smith occupied the cleanup spot in both of those contests, and if health prevails in 2024, he should have a prime opportunity to surpass his previous career high of 87 RBI while hitting behind the likes of Mookie Betts, Shohei Ohtani and Freddie Freeman.

    • Report: Will Smith, Dodgers finalizing extension
      Will Smith and the Dodgers are finalizing a 10-year, $140 million extension, according to ESPN’s Jeff Passan.

      Advice: It’s a deal that will likely keep the 28-year-old in Los Angeles for the rest of his career. The Dodgers’ backstop would have been eligible for free agency in 2025 but Los Angeles wanted to lock up one of the best catchers in baseball now rather than later. Smith was drafted by the Dodgers in the first round of the 2016 MLB Draft and will benefit from having the like of Shohei Ohtani, Mookie Betts and Freddie Freeman hit in front of him this season.
