  • Max Meyer whiffs seven on Friday at Triple-A
    Max Meyer struck out seven over four innings on Friday for Triple-A Jacksonville.

    Advice: It’s a bit perplexing that Miami is keeping Meyer in the minors as he continues to excel over his last handful of outings. There is no timetable for the 25-year-old righty to return to the big leagues as the Marlins’ front office clearly wants to limit his workload. Rotoworld Today, 5:03 am

  • Shelby Miller sharp on Friday in rehab appearance
    Shelby Miller (elbow) tossed 1 1/3 scoreless innings on Friday in a minor league rehab appearance for Triple-A Toledo.

    Advice: Miller gave up one hit and struck out a pair of batters in his latest rehab outing. The 33-year-old veteran reliever doesn’t appear to be far off from rejoining Detroit’s bullpen mix. Rotoworld Today, 5:00 am
  • Wins with shaky outing
    Severino (3-2) allowed five runs (four earned) on six hits and a walk over 5.1 innings Friday, striking out four and earning a win over Arizona.

    Advice: Severino got off to a rough start, coughing up three runs in the first inning. He gave up one more over the next four frames before Eugenio Suarez knocked him out of the game with a solo shot in the sixth inning. Severino still earned his first win since April 17 in the chaotic 10-9 contest. He ends May with a subpar 4.91 ERA and 23:16 K:BB through 29 frames. Severino will carry a 3.52 ERA into his next start, which is lined up to be in Washington. Rotowire.com Today, 4:52 am
  • Yariel Rodríguez goes two innings Friday at AAA
    Yariel Rodríguez (back) allowed one run over two innings on Friday in a minor league rehab start for Triple-A Buffalo.

    Advice: Rodríguez allowed two hits, issued one walk and also notched one strikeout, needing 43 pitches (25 strikes) to complete two frames. The 27-year-old righty has made a couple rehab appearances so far as he works his way back to Toronto and figures to operate in a multi-inning relief role upon returning. Rotoworld Today, 4:49 am
  • Hammered by Mets
    Montgomery (3-3) yielded eight runs (six earned) on nine hits and three walks over four innings Friday, striking out four and taking a loss against the Mets.

    Advice: Montgomery had a 3-0 lead before taking the mound Friday but quickly squandered it by coughing up four runs in the bottom of the first inning. He allowed another run in the second and three more in the fourth. After producing a pair of quality starts in his first two outings with Arizona, Montgomery has registered a rough 6.61 ERA over his last six starts. He now owns a 5.48 ERA with a lackluster 28:15 K:BB through 44.1 innings. Montgomery's next start is lined up to be at home against the Giants. Rotowire.com Today, 4:42 am
  • Bryan Woo (arm) likely to make next start vs. A’s
    Mariners manager Scott Servais said late Friday that Bryan Woo (arm) is expected to make his next start.

    Advice: Servais told reporters Woo was lifted after just 66 pitches since he’s been dealing with some “arm-stuff” and didn’t throw his usual between-starts bullpen session earlier this week. No word on the specific issue Woo is dealing with, but it doesn’t sound serious. It appears likely Seattle is merely exercising some caution with the 24-year-old righty, who has been phenomenal when healthy this season, but there’s zero indication that he’ll miss his next start on Thursday against the Athletics. He should benefit from an extra day of rest before taking the ball again. Rotoworld Today, 4:31 am
  • Rockies re-sign John Curtiss to minor league pact
    Rockies re-signed RHP John Curtiss to a minor league contract.

    Advice: Curtiss is back in the fold with Colorado just a few days after electing free agency following his removal from the club’s 40-man roster. The 31-year-old righty returns to Triple-A Albuquerque as emergency relief depth. Rotoworld Today, 4:22 am
  • Marlins outright Eli Villalobos to Triple-A
    Marlins sent RHP Eli Villalobos outright to Triple-A Jacksonville.

    Advice: Villalobos passed through waivers unclaimed after being designated for assignment earlier this week. The 26-year-old righty has been removed from Miami’s 40-man roster, but will remain with the organization as extra relief depth. Rotoworld Today, 4:21 am
  • Royals option Daniel Lynch IV to Triple-A
    Royals optioned LHP Daniel Lynch IV to Triple-A Omaha.

    Advice: Lynch surrendered three runs (two earned) over five innings on Thursday in an emergency spot start in place of Brady Singer, who was unavailable due to illness. The 27-year-old lefty will head back to the minors until another opportunity opens up. Rotoworld Today, 4:19 am
