Player Notes

  • Kodai Senga (shoulder) to face hitters next week
    Kodai Senga (shoulder) is scheduled to face hitters on Monday in a live batting practice session.

    Advice: Senga remains unlikely to make his season debut until late May, at the earliest, but this latest development represents a massive step forward in his rehabilitation process from a shoulder injury that sent him to the injured list back in spring training. Rotoworld 56 minutes ago
  • Chase Silseth (elbow) resumes throwing Friday
    Chase Silseth (elbow) resumed a throwing program on Friday.

    Advice: Silseth is aiming to rejoin Los Angeles’ starting rotation in early May after landing on the injured list with right elbow inflammation. The 23-year-old righty might wind up requiring a rehab outing, or two, before he’s ready to return, but is tracking towards being ready at some point in May. Rotoworld 59 minutes ago
  • Cade Cavalli to start rehab assignment in mid-May
    Cade Cavalli (elbow) will begin a minor league rehab assignment in mid-May.

    Advice: It’s been a minute since fantasy managers got a glimpse of Cavalli, one of the top pitching prospects in the game prior to undergoing Tommy John surgery last spring. The 25-year-old righty is scheduled to face hitters next week in a live batting practice session and will require a handful of rehab outings before he’s ready to make his season debut, likely sometime around midseason. He’s reportedly touching 96 mph in bullpen sessions and also added a sinker to his arsenal. Here we go. Rotoworld Today, 4:37 am
  • Kyle Bradish strikes out six on Friday at Triple-A
    Kyle Bradish (elbow) recorded six strikeouts and surrendered one run over five innings on Friday in a minor league rehab start for Triple-A Norfolk.

    Advice: Bradish appears to be on the precipice of returning to Baltimore’s starting rotation after throwing 77 pitches (49 strikes) over five frames in his latest rehab outing. It’s worth noting that the fastball velocity hasn’t totally rebounded to last year’s levels, but he still managed to induce 13 swinging strikes and finished with a respectable 32 percent CSW in this one. The 27-year-old righty has made a lightning-quick recovery from an offseason UCL sprain in his right elbow and should be rostered in all fantasy formats on the heels of last year’s breakthrough campaign.

  • Braxton Garrett goes three innings in rehab start
    Braxton Garrett (shoulder) allowed two runs over three innings on Friday in a minor league rehab start for Triple-A Jacksonville.

    Advice: Garrett struck out four and didn’t hand out a free pass. His fastball velocity still hasn’t returned to previous levels as he was sitting right around 90 mph in this outing. The 26-year-old lefty, who has battled shoulder issues since the outset of spring training, will likely require an additional rehab outing to continue building up his pitch count and stamina after throwing just 59 pitches (37 strikes) in this one.
