    • MRI shows no structural damage
      Romano (elbow) had an MRI on his right elbow Friday night, which didn't reveal any structural damage, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.

      Advice: Romano was placed on the 15-day injured list with inflammation in his throwing elbow, but he appears to have avoided a significant injury. The 31-year-old will be shut down from throwing for a few days before Toronto will determine what direction the team will go in from there. Yimi Garcia is considered the frontrunner to operate as the closer for the Blue Jays in Romano's absence. Rotowire.com 7 minutes ago
       
    • Not starting Saturday
      Ruiz isn't in the Nationals' lineup Saturday against the Guardians.

      Advice: After going 0-for-4 with a strikeout during Friday's series opener, Ruiz will take a seat Saturday against Ben Lively and the Guardians. Riley Adams will fill in behind the dish and bat eighth. Rotowire.com 24 minutes ago
       
    • Takes batting practice Saturday
      Yoshida (thumb) took live batting practice in Boston on Saturday, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.

      Advice: Yoshida was able to take another step in his recovery from the strain left thumb that has sidelined him since May 1. The outfielder said Saturday that he is "over the injury and it's a matter of building up," according to Abraham. Yoshida will likely need to embark on a multi-start rehab assignment prior to being activated from the injured list. Rotowire.com 33 minutes ago
       
    • Masataka Yoshida (thumb) takes BP on Saturday
      Masataka Yoshida (thumb) progressed to taking batting practice on Saturday at Fenway Park.

      Advice: Yoshida progressed to taking on-field batting practice for the first time since landing on the injured list back in early May with a left thumb issue. The 30-year-old slugger should be ready for a minor league rehab assignment at some point in the coming weeks, if not sooner. Rotoworld Today, 10:58 am
       
    • Nathaniel Lowe gets rare day off on Saturday
      Nathaniel Lowe is not in the lineup for Saturday’s game against the Marlins.

      Advice: It’s a rare day off for Lowe, who holds a .701 OPS with two homers, 17 RBI and one steal in 153 plate appearances over 36 games. It’ll be versatile Ezequiel Duran taking over at the cold corner to open Saturday’s game against the Marlins at loanDepot park. Rotoworld Today, 10:51 am
       
    • On bench versus lefty
      Lowe is not in the starting lineup Saturday against the Marlins.

      Advice: Lowe will get a day off as Texas faces left-hander Ryan Weathers on the mound Saturday. Ezequiel Duran will replace him at first base and bat fifth versus Miami. Rotowire.com Today, 10:47 am
       
    • Placed on 15-day IL
      Romano was placed on the 15-day injured list Saturday, retroactive to May 30, with right elbow inflammation, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.

      Advice: Romano was unavailable for Friday's 5-3 victory over the Pirates due to right elbow soreness and he'll now be forced to miss a couple weeks of action while nursing the injury. The 31-year-old produced a 9.00 ERA and 1.88 WHIP over eight innings, while suffering a blown save and being tagged with a pair of losses in nine appearances with Toronto in May, so the time off could serve as a reset button for him. In the meantime, left-hander Brendon Little was called up from Triple-A Buffalo on Saturday to replace him on the major-league roster. In Romano's absence, Yimi Garcia and Chad Green are a pair of candidates to absorb the ninth-inning role. Rotowire.com Today, 10:04 am
       
    • Blue Jays put closer Jordan Romano (elbow) on IL
      Blue Jays placed RHP Jordan Romano on the 15-day injured list with right elbow inflammation.

      Advice: Romano heads to the injured list after being unavailable Friday due to elbow soreness. The 31-year-old stopper underwent an MRI on Friday that didn’t reveal any structural damage, which is an encouraging development. There should be a clearer timetable for his return at some point in the coming days once he’s cleared to resume throwing. Fantasy managers should anticipate him missing at least a few weeks. It’ll most likely be Yimi García or Chad Green taking over as Toronto’s temporary closer for now. Rotoworld Today, 9:50 am
       
    • First to 20 homers in 2024
      Judge went 3-for-4 with two home runs and four RBI in Friday's 6-2 win over the Giants.

      Advice: Judge ended May with a bang, earning his first multi-homer game of the year while reaching the 20-homer mark. He did a ton of damage to opposing pitchers this month, going 36-for-97 (.371) with 14 long balls, 12 doubles and 27 RBI over 28 contests. The slugger is up to a fantastic .282/.408/.648 slash line with 45 RBI, 40 runs scored and two stolen bases over 59 contests in 2024. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:41 pm
