  • Yariel Rodríguez records one out Tuesday at AAA
    Yariel Rodríguez (back) recorded one out on Tuesday in a minor league rehab start for Triple-A Buffalo.

    Advice: Rodríguez threw 16 pitches (nine strikes) in his first rehab outing since landing on the injured list back in late April with back inflammation. The 27-year-old righty will presumably be built up to handle a multi-inning relief role with Alek Manoah pitching reasonably well since rejoining Toronto’s starting rotation. Rotoworld Today, 4:37 pm
  • Brooks Raley to undergo Tommy John surgery
    Brooks Raley will undergo season-ending Tommy John surgery.

    Advice: Raley has been on the shelf since spring training due to ligament damage and bone spurs in his left elbow, which will wind up requiring surgery. The 35-year-old southpaw will likely be out until at least the late stages of the 2025 campaign, so it’s fair to wonder whether he’ll make it back at this advanced stage of his career. It’s a big loss for the Mets as Raley was one of their more reliable left-handed relief options. Rotoworld Today, 4:31 pm
  • Slated for Tommy John surgery
    Raley will undergo Tommy John surgery sometime next week, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

    Advice: Raley was diagnosed with a strained UCL in his left elbow last Wednesday, and although manager Carlos Mendoza had said the lefty's UCL was healing, Raley will elect to undergo season-ending Tommy John surgery. The 35-year-old will finish the year with a perfect 0.00 ERA alongside a 9:3 K:BB through seven innings, and he will likely be sidelined until the second half of the 2025 campaign.

  • Bobby Miller (shoulder) set for rehab start Sunday
    Bobby Miller (shoulder) faced hitters on Tuesday in a three-inning simulated game at Dodger Stadium.

    Advice: Dodgers manager Dave Roberts told reporters afterwards that Miller will make a minor league rehab start on Sunday for Single-A Rancho Cucamonga. The hard-throwing 25-year-old righty will likely require a handful of rehab outings to build up his pitch count and stamina as he works his way back from right shoulder inflammation that put him on the shelf back in mid-April.

  • Throws sim game Tuesday
    Miller (shoulder) threw a three-inning, 51-pitch sim game Tuesday and is expected to make a rehab start with Single-A Rancho Cucamonga on Sunday, according to manager Dave Roberts.

    Advice: Miller has been out since April 13 while nursing right shoulder inflammation, but he got one step closer to returning Tuesday. The 25-year-old will likely need to make multiple rehab starts with the team's minor-league affiliates before potentially returning to the major-league roster in early June.

  • Starting Wednesday at Triple-A
    Thompson is scheduled to start for Triple-A Memphis on Wednesday, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democratreports.

    Advice: Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol named the left-hander as a candidate to start Saturday against the Cubs, but it appears he'll remain in the minor-league rotation. Thompson could still be an option for St. Louis if Wednesday's outing is a brief one, but the organization seems more likely to go in another direction at this point. Rotowire.com Today, 3:55 pm
  • Throwing off mound Wednesday
    Olson (hip) will throw a bullpen session Wednesday, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.

    Advice: Olson had to make an early exit from his start Monday against the Royals after taking a comebacker off his right hip. The right-hander managed to escape the incident with nothing more than a bruise, but the Tigers will have him throw a bullpen session to make sure Olson will be able to make his next scheduled start Saturday against Toronto.

  • Rejoining rotation Wednesday
    Pepiot (lower leg) will be reinstated from the 15-day injured list to start Wednesday against the Red Sox, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    Advice: The 26-year-old righty landed on the shelf with a bruised lower left leg after his May 5 start versus the Mets, but he'll return Wednesday after being sidelined for the 15-day minimum. Any workload limitations for Pepiot will likely be minor, given the brevity of his absence. Rotowire.com Today, 3:22 pm

  • Throws bullpen session
    Miller (elbow) threw a bullpen session Tuesday, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.

    Advice: Tuesday marks the first time Miller has thrown off a mound since landing on the injured list last Monday with right ulnar nerve inflammation. He will presumably throw a few more bullpens before progressing to facing live hitters, but there is still a chance the 33-year-old reliever returns to Detroit's bullpen when eligible next Tuesday.
