    • Osvaldo Bido leaves start with blister issue
      Osvaldo Bido was removed from Wednesday’s start against the Rangers in the third inning due to a blister issue on his pitching hand.

      Advice: The right-hander had allowed one run on three hits and a pair of walks over his 2 2/3 innings of work — but also left the bases loaded and will be responsible if those runners score as well. It’s likely that he would be heading back to Triple-A Las Vegas after Wednesday’s start anyways, but what remains unclear is whether or not he’ll require a trip to the injured list.

    • Starting rehab stint
      Astros manager Joe Espada said Wednesday that Urquidy (forearm) is likely to begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Sugar Land this weekend, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.

      Advice: The right-hander threw live batting practice Tuesday and has now been cleared to pitch in minor-league games. Urquidy was shut down with a forearm strain in mid-March and will likely require a handful of rehab starts before making his season debut for the Astros. Rotowire.com Today, 3:41 pm
       
    • Resting during Game 2
      Nevin isn't in the Athletics' lineup for the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader versus the Rangers.

      Advice: Nevin went 0-for-4 with a strikeout during Game 1, and he'll step out of the lineup for the nightcap. His absence will move Brent Rooker into right field while Shea Langeliers serves as Oakland's DH, allowing Kyle McCann to start behind the plate. Rotowire.com Today, 3:29 pm

    • José Urquidy (forearm) ready for rehab assignment
      José Urquidy (forearm) will begin a minor league rehab assignment at Triple-A Sugar Land over the weekend.

      Advice: Urquidy has been shelved since spring training due to inflammation in his forearm, so he’s going to need at least a couple of rehab starts before he’s an option to join the Astros’ rotation. If he’s able to avoid any setbacks though, a return before the end of May could be realistic. Rotoworld Today, 3:26 pm
       
    • Sitting for nightcap
      Davis isn't in Oakland's lineup for the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Rangers.

      Advice: Davis went 1-for-3 with a walk and scored twice during a 9-4 victory in Game 1, and he'll catch a breather to conclude Wednesday's activities. Tyler Soderstrom will start at first base instead while batting eighth. Rotowire.com Today, 3:24 pm

    • Chas McCormick ready for rehab assignment
      Chas McCormick (hamstring) is expected to begin a minor league rehab assignment over the weekend.

      Advice: McCormick, 29, has been sidelined since April 28 due to a right hamstring strain. He has been running and hitting without any issue though and should only need a couple of games there before he’s ready to return to the Astros’ lineup. Expect him back at the start of next week if everything goes according to plan. Rotoworld Today, 3:23 pm
       
    • MRI on shoulder returns clean
      Stewart said a recent MRI on his right shoulder "looked good," and he's hopeful to resume throwing this weekend, Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Stewart was placed on the 15-day injured list Friday with right shoulder tendinitis, and fortunately for him, the injury doesn't look to be any more significant than that. If Stewart is able to resume playing catch this weekend, he would have an outside chance at returning from the IL when first eligible May 17. Stewart recorded an 0.68 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 17:6 K:BB across 13.1 innings while gathering seven holds in 13 appearances prior to landing on the shelf. Rotowire.com Today, 3:18 pm
       
    • Rehab stint on tap
      Manager Joe Espada said Wednesday that McCormick (hamstring) could begin a rehab assignment this weekend, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.

      Advice: The 29-year-old landed on the injured list with hamstring soreness last week, and he is now on the cusp of returning to game action. McCormick will likely only need a few games in the minors to get back up to speed due to the brevity of the absence, though he could use a few extra at-bats given his .603 OPS through 21 games.

    • Sitting Wednesday
      Santana is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Mariners.

      Advice: Santana will take a seat after going 0-for-5 with a walk through the first two games of the series with Seattle. Father Time may be starting to catch up with Santana, whose .588 OPS so far during the 2024 campaign would represent the worst mark of his career by 73 points. Rotowire.com Today, 3:10 pm
