  • Mets' Christian Scott: Now in line to start Thursday

    Scott is slated to start Thursday's series finale versus the Rockies at Coors Field, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

    Scott had been on track to make his second turn through the rotation in place of the injured Kodai Senga (back) on Wednesday, but he'll wind up getting pushed back a day in the schedule along with the Mets' other starters after Tuesday's game was postponed due to inclement weather. The 26-year-old righty is coming off a strong outing this past Friday, when he limited the Angels to three runs (two earned) on three hits and no walks while striking out eight over five innings.

  • Josiah Gray SP | WAS

    Nationals' Josiah Gray: Resumes throwing program

    Gray (elbow) has resumed a throwing program, Mark Zuckerman of NatsJournal.com reports.

    It's the first bit of throwing the right-hander has done since he was diagnosed with a right flexor strain in late March. He will be brought along slowly in his rehab before being evaluated for a potential return to the Nationals' rotation.

  • Brewers' Jacob Misiorowski: Remains on track for next start

    Brewers manager Pat Murphy said Tuesday in a radio interview that "all things look good" for Misiorowski (hamstring) to make his next scheduled start Wednesday in St. Louis, Adam McCalvy of MLB.comreports.

    Misiorowski exited his last start Friday against the Nationals with a right hamstring cramp. However, he reported feeling fine after the game and was able to throw his normal between-starts bullpen session Monday. Barring a setback, Misiorowski should be in line for a normal workload against the Cardinals on Wednesday.

  • Brewers' Brandon Woodruff: Examined by Dr. Meister

    Woodruff traveled to Dallas on Tuesday to have his right shoulder examined by Dr. Keith Meister, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

    Woodruff went on the 15-day injured list last week with right shoulder inflammation after he had to exit his last outing when his fastball velocity sat in the mid-80s. The consensus seems to be that he's going through a "dead arm" phase, though it's an ominous sign that he's seeking out the opinion of Dr. Meister. The Brewers could have more information on Woodruff's status following Tuesday's exam.

  • Braves' Carlos Carrasco: Designated for assignment

    Atlanta designated Carrasco for assignment Tuesday.

    The veteran right-hander was designated for assignment by Atlanta in late April before re-signing a few days later and being added back to the big-league roster. Carrasco fired 1.1 scoreless innings Monday in Seattle and was unscored upon in his other appearance earlier this season, but he'll still lose his roster spot with Raisel Iglesias (shoulder) coming off the injured list.

  • Mets' Freddy Peralta: Mets-Rockies contest postponed

    Peralta will no longer start Tuesday after the Mets' game versus the Rockies was postponed due to inclement weather.

    The game will be made up Thursday. Peralta now lines up to take the ball Wednesday, while Christian Scott should be bumped back a day to Thursday.

  • Rockies' Michael Lorenzen: Tuesday's game postponed

    Lorenzen won't pitch Tuesday against the Mets since the game was postponed due to inclement weather.

    The contest will be made up Thursday, and Lorenzen is expected to take the hill for Wednesday's game. The veteran right-hander has posted a 6.09 ERA, 1.76 WHIP and 24:9 K:BB through eight appearances (34 innings) this season.

  • Mets' Christian Scott: Remaining in rotation

    Scott is slated to start Wednesday's game against the Rockies at Coors Field.

    The 26-year-old righty was sent back to the minors after walking five batters and recording just four outs in a spot start April 23 versus the Twins, but Scott was called up just a few days later after the Mets needed a replacement in the rotation for the injured Kodai Senga (back). Scott fared much better in his start Friday against the Angels, striking out eight batters while yielding three runs (two earned) on three hits and no walks over five innings. With Senga facing an uncertain timeline for his return from the injured list, Scott could be in line for an extended stay in the big-league rotation, provided he's able to avoid the control problems that plagued him in his 2026 MLB debut.

  • Robby Snelling SP | MIA

    Marlins' Robby Snelling: Option to take Paddack's spot

    Snelling is an option to start Friday's game against the Nationals, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

    The Marlins have an opening in their rotation after designating Chris Paddack for assignment. Braxton Garrett could be first in line since he's already on the 40-man roster and Snelling is not. However, Snelling is certainly pitching well enough to get a look, having collected a 1.86 ERA and 44:15 K:BB over 29 innings covering six starts for Triple-A Jacksonville. Even if Snelling isn't the choice by the Marlins this time around, he should get his opportunity sooner rather than later.

  • Marlins' Braxton Garrett: Could enter Miami rotation

    Garrett could be recalled from Triple-A Jacksonville to start Friday's game against the Nationals, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

    He would fill the spot vacated by Chris Paddack, who was designated for assignment Tuesday. Garrett missed all of the 2025 season while recovering from UCL surgery and failed to make the Opening Day roster this spring, but he's responded with a 1.71 ERA and 26:12 K:BB over 26.1 innings covering five starts with Jacksonville. Robby Snelling is also an option to take Paddack's spot, but Garrett might have the edge since he's already on the 40-man roster.
