    Tigers' Parker Meadows: Out with concussion, broken arm

    The Tigers placed Meadows on the 10-day injured list Friday with a left radius fracture and a concussion.

    It had been reported previously that Meadows suffered a concussion as a result of his collision in the outfield with Riley Greene on Thursday in Minnesota, and Meadows has now been diagnosed with a fractured arm, as well. It will be a lengthy absence for Meadows, though the Tigers haven't offered up a specific timetable. Wenceel Perez has been recalled to take Meadows' roster spot and should see starts in center field, along with Matt Vierling and perhaps Javier Baez.

  • Royce Lewis 3B | MIN

    Twins' Royce Lewis: Grabbing seat Friday

    Lewis is not in the lineup for Friday's game in Toronto.

    Lewis will get a day to rest after starting all four games during the Twins' sweep of the Tigers earlier in the week. Tristan Gray is getting a start at third base in Lewis' stead.

  • Royals' Jonathan India: Getting breather Friday

    India is absent from the lineup for Friday's contest versus the White Sox.

    India had made six consecutive starts but will get a breather in Friday's series opener. The Royals are going with Michael Massey at second base and in the No. 6 spot in the lineup.

  • Aaron Ashby SP | MIL

    Brewers' Aaron Ashby: Serving as opener Friday

    Ashby will serve as the opener ahead of Chad Patrick on Friday against the Nationals, Jack Stern of BrewerFanatic.com reports.

    The Nationals typically have four lefties in the top five of their lineup against right-handed pitching, so opening with a lefty before turning the ball over to Patrick makes sense. Ashby already leads the majors with seven appearances this season and has a 3-0 record, 2.79 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 14:5 K:BB across 9.2 innings.

  • Jose Trevino C | CIN

    Reds' Jose Trevino: Receives injection in back

    Trevino received a cortisone injection in his back and could start ramping up his rehab Saturday, Charlie Goldsmith of Fox 19 Now Cincinnati reports.

    Trevino remains on the 10-day injured list and isn't eligible to be activated until Wednesday, although a return that quickly could be optimistic. The veteran catcher hit .091/.167/.091 with a 1:3 BB:K across 12 plate appearances before going down with the injury.

  • Cubs' Jaxon Wiggins: Dealing with sore arm

    Wiggins is dealing with a sore arm at Triple-A Iowa, Bruce Levine of 670TheScore.com reports.

    The 24-year-old has made a pair of starts but has only thrown eight innings, posting a 5.63 ERA and 10:5 K:BB. Wiggins could be a candidate to make his major-league debut at some point this season, assuming the arm issue isn't serious.

  • Corbin Carroll LF | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Corbin Carroll: Remains out of lineup Friday

    Carroll (hip) is not in the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Phillies.

    The 25-year-old tweaked his hip Wednesday against the Mets and will miss his second consecutive start. With Carroll not in the starting lineup, Jorge Barrosa is getting the nod in right field and batting ninth. Carroll is slashing .333/.408/.690 with three doubles, three triples, two home runs, 11 RBI, nine runs scored, one stolen base and a 6:10 BB:K across 49 plate appearances. He's aiming for a return to the lineup Saturday or Sunday, Steve Gilbert of MLB.com reports.

  • Astros' Spencer Arrighetti: Stellar numbers at Triple-A

    Arrighetti boasts a 1.26 ERA, 0.77 WHIP and 20:6 K:BB over 14.1 innings in his first three starts with Triple-A Sugar Land.

    Arrighetti covered six innings his last time out Thursday, fanning seven batters in the process. The right-hander failed to land a spot in the Astros' rotation out of spring training, but with Hunter Brown (shoulder) and Cristian Javier (shoulder) going down since then, Arrighetti could get his chance as soon as next week at home against the Rockies. Arrighetti's control problems can make him volatile, but the strikeout upside of the 26-year-old makes him a worthy stash in deeper fantasy leagues.

  • Luis Gil SP | NYY

    Yankees' Luis Gil: Set to join rotation Friday

    The Yankees will recall Gil from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre to start Friday's game against the Rays, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.

    The Yankees' early-season schedule has allowed them to use a four-man rotation thus far, but the need for a fifth starter has arrived and Gil will be the one to fill it. Gil missed much of the 2025 campaign with a lat strain before collecting a 3.32 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and 41:33 K:BB across 57 regular-season innings covering 11 starts. The 27-year-old showed good velocity during spring training and posted a 24:5 K:BB in 19.1 frames, but throwing strikes has been a consistent issue for him in the majors and minors. With Carlos Rodon (elbow/hamstring) and Gerrit Cole (elbow) due back in the coming weeks, Gil will need to get off to a good start if he wants to retain a spot in the Yankees' rotation.

  • Tyler Phillips SP | MIA

    Marlins' Tyler Phillips: Picks up three-inning save

    Phillips recorded his first save of the season in Thursday's 8-1 win over the Reds, allowing two hits and a walk over three scoreless innings of relief. He struck out four.

    The right-hander collected three conventional one-inning saves over the final weeks of the 2025 season, but Phillips picked up a long-relief save Thursday to close out a rout. He's been effective to begin the current campaign, posting a 0.00 ERA, 0.92 WHIP and 10:4 K:BB over 8.2 innings and four appearances, but Phillips doesn't appear to be the part of the high-leverage picture for the Marlins at the moment.
