Manager Terry Francona said that Greene was pulled from his start during Tuesday's win over the Brewers due to a flare-up of his groin injury, Pat Brennan of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Greene managed to last five innings Tuesday, allowing two earned runs on five hits and three walks while striking out seven batters. He spent time on the injured list in May due to a groin strain, so the decision to pull him after 85 pitches was made in order to prevent him from further aggravating the injury. The 25-year-old righty will receive an MRI on Wednesday to determine if any serious damage was done. Until then, his status for his next start is unknown.

Woodruff (ankle) was removed from his rehab start at Triple-A Nashville on Tuesday after getting hit on the right arm by a line drive, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Woodruff first began his minor-league assignment April 12 while working his way back from October 2023 shoulder surgery, but his rehab was extended in mid-May, when he experienced right ankle tendinitis. He resumed the assignment May 21, and Tuesday's outing was expected the 32-year-old's final start in the minors before being activated for his season debut next week. However, those plans may be in jeopardy now that the concern about his health has shifted back to his arm. He's slated to receive X-rays in Milwaukee on Wednesday, per Adam McCalvy of MLB.com, at which point the Brewers may have a clearer idea regarding his timeline to return from the 15-day injured list.

Glasnow (shoulder) downplayed the "general body soreness" mentioned by manager Dave Roberts on Monday, and the right hander said he's likely to throw another bullpen session Friday or Saturday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Glasnow classified the body soreness as a minor back issue, which shut him down from throwing for a few days. The oft-injured 31-year-old made just five starts this season prior to landing on the injured list due to shoulder inflammation. Glasnow will be eligible to be reinstated in late June, but he could be sidelined beyond that given that he'll likely require a handful of rehab games in the minors before rejoining the Dodgers.

The Giants placed Hicks on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with right toe inflammation, retroactive to Monday.

Hicks has given up two earned runs in 3.1 innings since moving to the bullpen, but he'll now be unavailable for at least the next two weeks due to his toe. Sean Hjelle was recalled from Triple-A Sacramento to fill the open spot on the Giants' pitching staff.

Perez (elbow) will be activated from the 60-day injured list Monday to start against the Pirates, Kevin Barral of FishOnFirst.com reports.

Perez has turned in a 1.96 ERA and 1.09 WHIP across 18.1 innings between Single-A Jupiter and Triple-A Jacksonville during his rehab assignment. His eighth and final minor-league outing is set to come Tuesday, and the Marlins will keep him on a five-day rest schedule leading up to his first MLB start of the year. The 22-year-old hasn't stood on a big-league mound since the 2023 campaign, during which he posted a 3.15 ERA and 1.13 WHIP across 91.1 frames (19 starts).

The Marlins placed Meyer on the 15-day injured list Tuesday due to a left hip impingement, Kevin Barral of FishonFirst.com reports.

Meyer surrendered four earned runs in each of his past two starts -- including a matchup versus the Rockies on Monday -- and will be sidelined for at least the next couple weeks due to a hip issue. It's unclear how long the left-hander is expected to be sidelined, though he'll be eligible to be reinstated from the injured list June 18.

The Diamondbacks placed Burnes (elbow) on the 15-day injured list Tuesday.

The right-hander is getting a second opinion on his right elbow from well-known surgeon Dr. Neal ElAttrache, and Burnes will be sidelined for at least the next couple weeks as he continues to be evaluated. Ryne Nelson will take Burnes' place in Arizona's starting rotation, while Tommy Henry was called up from Triple-A Reno to fill the open roster spot.

The Rockies placed Gordon on the 15-day injured list Tuesday, retroactive to May 31, due to a left oblique strain.

Gordon presumably sustained the injury during his start against the Cubs on Wednesday, when he gave up two runs on six hits with one strikeout and no walks over 4.2 innings. Regardless of the injury, the right-hander still may have lost his place in Colorado's rotation with Chase Dollander (forearm) returning from the IL to start Tuesday in Miami.

The Rockies reinstated Dollander (forearm) from the 15-day injured list to start Tuesday's game against the Marlins.

The right-hander has been sidelined the past couple weeks due to forearm inflammation, but he's rejoining Colorado's rotation Tuesday without a minor-league rehab assignment. Through his first eight MLB starts, Dollander has struggled to a 6.28 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and 38:18 K:BB across 38.2 innings.

The Diamondbacks are expected to place Burnes (elbow) on the 15-day injured list, John Gambadoro of Arizona Sports 98.7 FM reports.

There's no word yet on the specifics of Burnes' right elbow injury, as he is getting a second opinion after initial tests were inconclusive. However, he is set to miss at least the next couple weeks of action. Tommy Henry will be summoned from Triple-A Reno to take Burnes' roster spot and Ryne Nelson will slide into the rotation.
