The Marlins placed Stowers (hamstring) on the 10-day injured list Wednesday.

Stowers was diagnosed Sunday with a Grade 1 right hamstring strain and is expected to need 3-to-4 weeks to make a full recovery. With Stowers opening the season on the shelf, the Marlins should have regular reps available in the corner outfield for Griffin Conine and Owen Caissie, and the right-handed-hitting Heriberto Hernandez could see more opportunities against righties after he previously appeared to be in line for a short-side platoon role.

The Marlins placed Mazur (elbow) on the 60-day injured list Wednesday.

The move frees a spot on the 40-man roster. Mazur will miss the entirety of the 2026 season after undergoing UCL reconstruction surgery with an internal brace on his right elbow earlier this month.

Weathers completed five innings in Tuesday's exhibition game against the Cubs, allowing one run on four hits and one walk while striking out four batters.

Weathers entered as a reliever in the third inning but got in a healthy workload of five frames spanning 80 pitches (57 strikes). He held Chicago to just one run on a Miguel Amaya solo homer. Weathers had a bumpy spring and finished the exhibition slate with an 8.83 ERA and 1.79 WHIP across 17.1 innings, but he did register an impressive 21:4 K:BB. The left-hander has been tabbed to be part of New York's season-opening rotation and is tentatively slated to make his first start Monday in Seattle.

The Dodgers placed Stewart (shoulder) on the 15-day injured list Monday.

Stewart is still working his way back from a right shoulder debridement procedure he underwent last September. The right-handed reliever has been throwing off a mound and the hope is his stay on the injured list will be brief.

The Reds placed Lodolo (finger) on the 15-day injured list Wednesday.

Lodolo had been slated to pitch during the Reds' first series of the season but will instead hit the shelf after he exited his final Grapefruit League start last weekend when he developed a blister on his left index finger. The southpaw was able to resume playing catch Tuesday, so assuming his finger presents no further issues for him while he builds back up, he could be ready to return from the IL when first eligible April 7.

The Dodgers placed Snell (shoulder) on the 15-day injured list Monday.

Snell has been working his way back from left shoulder fatigue, an issue that's lingered since last season. He's begun throwing off a mound but will not be ready for his season debut until late May, at the earliest. The Dodgers could eventually shift Snell to the 60-day IL when/if they need a 40-man roster spot.

The Dodgers placed Miller (shoulder) on the 60-day injured list Monday.

Miller was slowed by shoulder soreness this spring, and the injury is evidently bad enough that the Dodgers opted to go ahead and put him on the 60-day IL. The righty converted to a relief role in the minors last season and is surely headed back to Triple-A Oklahoma City once he returns to full health.

The Tigers selected McGonigle's contract from Double-A Erie on Wednesday.

The transaction was merely a formality after the Tigers confirmed Tuesday that the 21-year-old star prospect would be included on the Opening Day roster. McGonigle earned the right to bypass the Triple-A level and make his MLB debut Thursday in San Diego after slashing .250/.411/.477 with two home runs and two stolen bases over 56 plate appearances in spring training. He's expected to handle an everyday role while splitting time between third base and shortstop, and he could occupy a prominent spot in the batting order right away.

The Dodgers placed Graterol (shoulder) on the 15-day injured list Monday.

Graterol didn't make any spring training appearances and has had difficulty regaining velocity since undergoing right shoulder surgery in November 2024. He's been throwing, but it's unclear when he might be an option for the Dodgers bullpen.

The Dodgers placed Stone (shoulder) on the 15-day injured list Monday.

Stone experienced a setback with his surgically repaired right shoulder early in spring training and was shut down from throwing, though he's now considered pain-free and should start playing catch soon, per MLB.com. While recent imaging on Stone's shoulder revealed nothing more than inflammation, the Dodgers are expected to take a deliberate approach with the right-hander. The Dodgers are leaving the door open for Stone to return from the IL during the first half, though a more precise target date for his activation won't become clearer until he's ready to go on a minor-league rehab assignment.
