  • Throwing off mound
    Scherzer (back/arm) will throw a "full" bullpen session Wednesday, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Advice: Scherzer will throw off a mound for the first time since being shut down in early May, an encouraging sign for the 38-year-old, who's rehabbing a nerve problem in his throwing arm and an offseason back surgery. Prior to the setback, Scherzer threw 52 pitches April 25 in a rehab start at Triple-A Round Rock. Rotowire.com 19 minutes ago
     
  • Max Scherzer (thumb) throwing bullpen Wednesday
    Max Scherzer (thumb) is scheduled to throw a bullpen session on Wednesday.

    Advice: There’s a bit of lingering uncertainty regarding Scherzer’s potential return timeline after he was abruptly pulled off a minor league rehab assignment earlier this month to address a nerve issue leading to issues with his right thumb. The hope is that the 39-year-old veteran righty will be ready for rehab starts at some point in June. There is no official timetable for his return at this juncture. Rotoworld 21 minutes ago
     
  • Starting Wednesday's game
    Dunning will start Wednesday's game against the Diamondbacks, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Advice: It had been Dunning's turn Tuesday, but he will be pushed back a day with Nathan Eovaldi (groin) returning from the injured list. Dunning threw 74 pitches in his first start back from the IL last week versus the Phillies, so he might not quite be fully stretched out for Wednesday's outing. Rotowire.com 23 minutes ago

  • Making another rehab start
    Wicks (forearm) is starting for Triple-A Iowa on Tuesday, Tony Andracki of Marquee Sports Network reports.

    Advice: Wicks will make his second rehab appearance at Triple-A Iowa after going two scoreless innings with three strikeouts Friday. He's still in the process of getting stretched out, so it's expected Wicks will need a couple more rehab starts before being activated. Rotowire.com 24 minutes ago
     
  • Will start for Texas on Tuesday
    Eovaldi (groin) will start Tuesday's game against the Diamondbacks, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Advice: Eovaldi has missed nearly all of May with a strained right groin, but he will skip a rehab assignment and go right back into the Rangers' rotation. The right-hander would figure to be relatively limited from a workload perspective Tuesday, although the Rangers haven't revealed any specifics regarding a pitch count. Dane Dunning had been on turn to start Tuesday but will now take the ball Wednesday. Rotowire.com 25 minutes ago
     
  • Hyde: Dean Kremer (triceps) to resume throwing
    Orioles manager Brandon Hyde told reporters Tuesday that Dean Kremer (triceps) will resume throwing later this week.

    Advice: Kremer hit the injured list last week with a right triceps strain, so it’s an encouraging development that he’s ready to resume throwing already. The 28-year-old righty should rejoin Baltimore’s starting rotation mix at some point in mid-June. Rotoworld 37 minutes ago

  • DL getting undergoing tests after ‘tweaking’ knee
    DL Hall is undergoing additional testing after “tweaking” his left knee last week during a minor league rehab appearance.

    Advice: Hall expressed frustration with reporters on Tuesday as he awaits additional medical opinions on his knee, adding that he believes it to be a similar issue to the one that sent him to the injured list back in mid-April. There is no timetable for the 25-year-old southpaw’s return at the moment, but there should be an update on his prognosis at some point this week. Rotoworld 38 minutes ago

  • Close to playing catch
    Orioles manager Brandon Hyde said Tuesday that Kremer (triceps) is improving and could be cleared to play catch soon, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Kremer was placed on the 15-day injured list this past Friday, but it's looking like his absence might not last long. That said, it might be a push for the right-hander to return when eligible on June 5. More should be known on Kremer's potential timetable in the coming days. Rotowire.com 46 minutes ago

  • White Sox put Mike Clevinger (elbow) on 15-day IL
    White Sox placed RHP Mike Clevinger on the 15-day injured list, retroactive to May 25, with right elbow inflammation.

    Advice: Clevinger was scratched from Tuesday’s scheduled outing against the Blue Jays after receiving a cortisone shot to address the issue. The 33-year-old right-hander is expected to resume throwing at some point later this week and is expected to be ready to return in early June when first eligible to be activated.
