    • Framber Valdez spins seven strong in win over MIN
      Framber Valdez gave up just one hit on two runs while working seven innings to get a win Saturday against the Twins.

      Advice: Valdez did issue two walks, but he was able to keep the self-inflicted damage to a low roar while striking out four. The southpaw has gone seven innings in three of his last five starts, and he hasn’t allowed more than two runs in any of those outings. There have been some clunkers for Valdez in 2024, but the good has mostly outweighed the poor. Rotoworld Yesterday, 5:02 pm
       
    • Delivers another quality start
      Crochet didn't factor into the decision in an extra-inning loss to the Brewers on Saturday, allowing one run on five hits and a walk over six innings. He struck out eight.

      Advice: Crochet's now logged quality starts in five of his last six outings, posting a stellar 1.03 ERA in that span (35 innings). The 24-year-old left-hander continues to provide a bright spot on a rebuilding White Sox team -- Crochet's ERA is down to 3.49 on the year with a 0.93 WHIP and 93 strikeouts, good for second most in the league. He'll look to keep rolling in his next outing, currently slated for next week at home against Boston. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:00 pm
       
    • Mark Canha (hip) expected to return on Sunday
      Mark Canha (hip) is expected to return to the Tigers’ lineup for Sunday’s series finale against the Red Sox.

      Advice: Canha sat out his second straight game on Saturday with the hip issue, but the training staff believe it’s something that he can manage and play through rather than something that’s going to require a trip to the injured list. He told reporters on Saturday, “Just happens when you get to be 35... I’ve never had this injury before, so it’s new. The same thing happens with me every year. You never know what’s going to pop up as you get older.” He’s considered day-to-day. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:18 pm

    • Expects to play Sunday
      Canha (hip) expects to play a full game Sunday versus the Red Sox, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.

      Advice: Canha is dealing with a psoas strain in his left hip and his ability to return to the lineup Sunday will be a big test for his status moving forward. If he suffers a setback, the 35-year-old will likely head to the injured list. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:25 pm

    • Eyeing Wednesday return
      Singer (illness) is feeling better but still needs a few days to recover strength, potentially slotting in to start Wednesday in Cleveland according to manager Matt Quatraro, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Singer was scratched from his last scheduled start Thursday versus the Twins due to an illness, but he now appears to be on track to return to the mound relatively soon. The right-hander is in the midst of a career year with Kansas City, producing a 2.63 ERA and 1.12 WHIP with 64 strikeouts over 61.2 innings in his first 11 starts of 2024.

    • Joe Musgrove lands on IL with elbow inflammation
      Padres placed RHP Joe Musgrove on the 15-day injured list with right elbow inflammation.

      Advice: Musgrove lasted just two starts before an elbow issue winds up sending him back on the shelf. Kevin Acee of the San Diego Union-Tribune reported that Musgrove is dealing with a recurring triceps/elbow issue, which “is not believed at this time to be a season-ending injury.” The fact that the term season-ending is even being brought up here isn’t an encouraging sign. It certainly doesn’t sound great and fantasy managers should anticipate Musgrove returning anytime soon. There should be some clarity on his status in the coming days once he undergoes some additional imaging to determine whether he’s dealing with any structural damage. Stay tuned.

    • Elbow issues return
      The Padres placed Musgrove on the 15-day injured list Saturday with right elbow inflammation, Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

      Advice: Musgrove was originally slated to start Saturday against the Royals, but he will now return to the injured list after experiencing further issues with his right elbow/triceps. The 31-year-old was able to return from the IL after 16 days following his first encounter with elbow problems in May, but the Padres will likely bring him back slower this time around to ensure his elbow is back to 100 percent the next time he takes the mound. Randy Vasquez was recalled from Triple-A to start in Musgrove's place Saturday and will likely remain in the Padres' rotation until Musgrove is able to return.

    • Remains out Saturday
      Canha (hip) is not in the starting lineup Saturday versus the Red Sox, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.

      Advice: Canha was a late scratch from Friday's lineup due to left hip soreness, and he'll be forced to sit out again Saturday. Colt Keith will slot in at designated hitter while Zach McKinstry enters the lineup at second base and bats seventh against Boston. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:33 am

    • Mark Canha (hip) not in Saturday’s lineup vs. Red Sox
      Mark Canha (hip) remains out of the lineup for Saturday’s game against the Red Sox.

      Advice: Canha remains out for Saturday’s showdown at Fenway Park after being a late scratch from Friday’s lineup due to left hip soreness. Fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day for now. Rotoworld Yesterday, 10:17 am
