  • Tyler Glasnow SP | LAD

    Rays' Tyler Glasnow: Start pushed back

    Glasnow will start Tuesday against the Nationals instead of Sunday against the Rangers, Neil Solondz of the Rays Radio Network reports.

    Glasnow is not dealing with any injury, but the Rays are just attempting to manage his workload. The move should also allow another day of rest for Ryan Yarbrough, who threw a complete game Thursday. Sunday will be a bullpen game for the Rays, with the starter yet to be announced.

  • Corey Kluber SP | BOS

    Yankees' Corey Kluber: Transferred to 60-day injured list

    The Yankees moved Kluber (shoulder) to the 60-day injured list Saturday.

    The move frees up a roster spot as Kluber, yet to begin a throwing program, still projects to return around late July. Infielder Chris Gittens was signed Saturday to fill Kluber's spot.

  • Carlos Rodon SP | NYY

    White Sox's Carlos Rodon: Start pushed back

    Rodon will now start Tuesday's series opener against the Blue Jays, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.

    Rodon had been listed as the starter for Sunday's game against the Tigers, but the White Sox will choose to give him extra rest ahead of his next outing. Dylan Cease will now take the mound in Sunday's series finale.

  • Dylan Cease SP | TOR

    White Sox's Dylan Cease: Starting Sunday

    Cease will start Sunday's series finale against Detroit, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.

    The right-hander will be pitching on normal rest Sunday, and the White Sox will elect to start Carlos Rodon on Tuesday to give him additional rest. Across his last three starts, Cease has posted a 7.90 ERA and 1.76 WHIP in 13.2 innings.

  • Brad Keller RP | PHI

    Royals' Brad Keller: Picks up easy win

    Keller (6-4) allowed two runs on seven hits while striking out five over five innings as he took the win over the Twins on Friday.

    Keller was handed a commanding lead Friday after the Royals tallied nine runs on six hits, two errors and a walk in the first inning. The 25-year-old did surrender a solo home run to Jorge Polanco in the fifth but struck out at least five for the third consecutive start and didn't walk a batter for the first time all year. While Keller has been much better over the last month, he still owns a 5.50 ERA. The right-hander is expected to take the mound next week against the Angels in Los Angeles.

  • Bryan Garcia SP | HOU

    Tigers' Bryan Garcia: Recalled by Detroit

    Garcia was recalled from Triple-A Toledo on Saturday.

    Garcia was sent to the minors Sunday and tossed 1.1 scoreless innings in his only appearance with the Triple-A club. He'll rejoin the major-league bullpen after he posted a 5.30 ERA and 1.66 WHIP in 18.2 innings across 19 appearances to begin the year. Right-hander Spencer Turnbull (forearm) was placed on the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move.

  • Tigers' Spencer Turnbull: Placed on 10-day IL

    Turnbull was placed on the 10-day injured list with a right forearm strain Saturday.

    Turnbull sustained his injury during Friday's start against the White Sox and was removed after just four innings. Manager A.J. Hinch was encouraged by the right-hander's initial test results and said that the issue appears to be muscular rather than structural. Right-hander Bryan Garcia was called up in a corresponding move, and the Tigers haven't yet announced who will take Turnbull's place in the rotation while he's sidelined.

  • Kyle Gibson SP | BAL

    Rangers' Kyle Gibson: Wins on pitch limit

    Gibson (4-0) earned the win Friday, giving up five hits while striking out five without walking a batter over 5.1 scoreless innings against Tampa Bay.

    Gibson was activated off the injured list Friday and was on a pitch limit, per Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports. The right-hander threw 73 pitches, which is a bit more than the trainers recommended. The Rangers' ace lines up to pitch next Friday, kicking off a road trip against the Dodgers.

  • Lance Lynn SP | STL

    White Sox's Lance Lynn: Felt tightness in last outing

    Lynn said he felt tightness at the end of Thursday's outing, but he should be able to make his next start, Brian Sandalow of the Chicago Sun-Times reports

    White Sox manager Tony La Russa said Lynn "had a couple of areas that were barking a little bit," which is why he departed after six innings and 89 pitches -- low numbers for the workhorse starter. Lynn, who sports a sterling 1.23 ERA through 10 starts, appears likely to next pitch Wednesday against the Blue Jays.

  • Dallas Keuchel SP | MIL

    White Sox's Dallas Keuchel: Bullpen squanders win

    Keuchel allowed two runs (one earned) on five hits and one walk while striking out three over six innings, picking up a no-decision in Friday's 9-8 win over Detroit.

    Keuchel cruised through his six innings and left the game with a 7-2 lead after just 80 pitches. Chicago's 2020 bullpen could have held that lead, but the bullpen has not been the same in 2021. Codi Heuer and Evan Marshall conspired to give up six runs in the top of the seventh inning, negating what would have been Keuchel's fifth win. The left-hander is on schedule for his next start Thursday at home against the Blue Jays.
