Seiya Suzuki – OF Chicago Cubs

While we don’t know much more than we did, this at least gives us hope that Suzuki will be back tomorrow. Stay tuned.

Liam Hendriks – RP Chicago White Sox

Hendriks’ body has gone through a lot over the past year. Now he has to go through something similar to a flexor strain which could cost him some significant time this summer. While the speculation is based on last year’s timeline, nothing is set in stone and nobody knows just yet what he’s facing. The fact is that he may have rushed through his quest to return and that, alongside a faster pitch clock, may have made his body shut down the way that it did. Either way, more will be known by tomorrow.

Andres Gimenez – INF Cleveland Guardians

Gimenez left the game with leg tightness, which is being deemed precautionary. As Francona said here, he needs to come to the stadium on Tuesday and be ready to go. If he is, he’ll be back, so this is on Gimenez to let everyone know how he is. This doesn’t seem to be a serious injury, but anything could happen.

Elias Diaz – C Colorado Rockies

There is some speculation that Diaz will go on the 7-day Concussion Injured List because of this. The club has already called up catcher Brian Severn, but that was done with other moves.

Charlie Blackmon – OF Colorado Rockies

Blackmon will miss significant time with a broken hand. Apparently, it’s been hurting for about a week now and getting worse by the day. He was able to somehow get a hit in each game of the series versus the Giants but left Saturday’s game.

Yordan Alvarez – OF Houston Astros

This is essentially the team shutting down Alvarez and re-assessing. Oblique injuries are very tricky to overcome and they’re different for everyone. This is their way of getting a better handle on the situation to see how he feels after about a week of being minimalized in his activity. There should be more updates later this week.

Julio Urias – SP Los Angeles Dodgers

Urias was originally slated to be activated yesterday. Instead, he will need one or two more bullpen sessions and then head out for a rehab assignment. This likely means that he will need at least one more week before returning, with the possibility that he needs two.

Trevor Rogers – SP Miami Marlins

As of this writing, those results have yet to be revealed. Once they are, a better sense of where Rogers is and will be can be used to figure out when he’ll return.

Carlos Rodon – SP New York Yankees

Rodon is trending upward and this was a good indication of that. It will be interesting to see the pitch count that he works with when he does throw again before heading out for a rehab assignment. Keep in mind that he hasn’t pitched all year, so rehab will undoubtedly be a long one.

Blake Snell – SP San Diego Padres

The clarification makes things more straightforward here, as Snell seems to be fine going forward. The move sounds precautionary. It will be interesting to see if he misses anytime, but it would seem like that won’t happen.

Alex Wood – SP San Francisco Giants

Keep an eye on this as more updates will be made available as we get closer to that date.

Ross Stripling – SP San Francisco Giants

Stripling has been out of action for about a month now, and he just received a cortisone shot to help speed things up. It seems to be working as Stripling has progressed quite well in his recovery. His scheduled session for live hitters is the next big step forward.

Tyler O’Neill – OF St. Louis Cardinals

O’Neill has been on the shelf for quite a while and the team and him were at a standstill as to how to get things to improve. He is supposed to be re-evaluated this Thursday to see if he can resume baseball activities. His body is responding well to core-strengthening activities as well as the two injections that he received.

Brandon Belt – 1B Toronto Blue Jays

Consider Belt to be DTD until we hear of any setbacks.
