  • Masyn Winn SS | STL

    Cardinals' Masyn Winn: Remains out of lineup

    Winn (hip) remains out of the lineup for Monday's contest against the Nationals.

    Winn will miss out on a third straight start after he exited Friday's game in Detroit due to left hip tightness. Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol said Monday that Winn remains day-to-day, but he's set to go through a full pregame workout to determine his availability off the bench, per Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat. Thomas Saggese will draw another start at shortstop in Winn's place.

  • Rays' Slater de Brun: Recovering from surgery

    The Florida Complex League Rays placed de Brun on the 60-day injured list March 26 as he recovers from wrist surgery, Sam Dykstra of MLB Pipeline reports.

    Per Dykstra, de Brun underwent wrist surgery before he was traded from the Orioles to the Rays as part of the return for Shane Baz. It is not expected to be a long-term absence. De Brun will presumably return before the conclusion of the FCL season before heading to Single-A Charleston for the remainder of the season.

  • Joey Wiemer CF | WAS

    Nationals' Joey Wiemer: Sitting against another RHP

    Wiemer is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Cardinals.

    On the bench for the third time in four matchups versus a righty starter (Andre Pallante), the right-handed-hitting Wiemer appears as though he'll have to settle for a more of a part-time role against right-handed pitching. Wiemer is still maintaining a sizzling .476/.577/.857 slash line over 26 plate appearances on the season, but he's been much more effective against lefties (2.092 OPS) than righties (.825 OPS).

  • Yankees' Bryce Cunningham: Shelved at High-A

    High-A Hudson Valley placed Cunningham on the 7-day injured list April 2 due to arm soreness, Jim Callis of MLB Pipeline reports.

    Cunningham, the No. 53 overall pick in 2024, was excellent early last season before missing a couple months with a shoulder injury. He wasn't the same after returning and was also subpar in the Arizona Fall League (10.38 ERA in 13 innings), and the fact he is behind to start this season continues a worrying trend.

  • Tigers' Sawyer Gipson-Long: Activated and optioned

    The Tigers activated Gipson-Long (oblique) from the 15-day injured list and optioned him to Triple-A Toledo, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

    Gipson-Long had made one rehab appearance with Single-A Lakeland, and the Tigers will keep him in the minors rather than return him to the active big-league roster. The righty made three starts and five relief appearances for Detroit in 2025, collecting a 7.18 ERA and 26:6 K:BB over 31.1 innings. Gipson-Long will join the rotation at Toledo.

  • Dax Kilby SS | NYY

    Yankees' Dax Kilby: Nursing injury at Single-A

    Single-A Tampa placed Kilby on the 7-day injured list with a hamstring strain, Jim Callis of MLB Pipeline reports.

    Kilby suffered the injury during spring training, but Callis notes that Kilby should return soon. Assuming he puts the injury behind him, Kilby could make waves in the lower levels of the minors this year after he hit .353 with 16 steals in 18 games at Single-A last year after getting drafted out of high school with the No. 39 overall pick.

  • Ronny Mauricio 2B | NYM

    Mets' Ronny Mauricio: Elevated from Triple-A

    The Mets recalled Mauricio from Triple-A Syracuse on Monday.

    He'll join the 26-man active roster as a replacement for outfielder Juan Soto (calf), who was placed on the 10-day injured list. Mauricio slashed a mere .226/.293/.369 across 61 contests for the Mets last season after missing all of 2024 while recovering from knee surgery. He'll offer manager Carlos Mendoza another infield option, but Mauricio will likely operate mostly as a reserve.

  • Red Sox's Tyler Uberstine: Goes back to Triple-A

    The Red Sox optioned Uberstine to Triple-A Worcester on Monday.

    Uberstine was unlikely to be available to pitch for another day or two after tossing 2.2 innings and 45 pitches in relief during Sunday's loss to the Padres, so the Red Sox will send him back to the minors to clear room on the active roster for right-hander Garrett Whitlock (personal), who was reinstated from the paternity list. Once he's back in Worcester, Uberstine will likely settle back into the rotation after making his MLB debut out of the bullpen.

  • Orioles' Stiven Martinez: Shelved with injury

    Martinez is sidelined at Single-A Delmarva due to a hamstring injury, Jonathan Mayo of MLB Pipeline reports.

    Martinez has not been placed on the injured list, but he has not played in a game yet this season for the Shorebirds. The 18-year-old outfielder hit .125 with a 48.4 percent strikeout rate in 25 games at Single-A last year, but he has always logged high walk rates while being young for his levels, and there is plus raw power potential as he fills out his 6-foot-4 frame.

  • Red Sox's Garrett Whitlock: Returns from paternity list

    The Red Sox reinstated Whitlock (personal) from the paternity leave list Monday.

    Boston sent out right-hander Tyler Uberstine to Triple-A Worcester to clear room on the active roster for Whitlock, who spent the maximum three days away from the Red Sox while observing the birth of his child. The 29-year-old right-hander should return to a high-leverage role in the Boston bullpen.
