Marcell Ozuna – OF Atlanta Braves

Ozuna left the game for precautionary reasons. The x-rays were negative and things look to be okay. Something to watch though. Approximately one hour after this tweet, Toscano sent another tweet to say that Ozuna was undergoing further evaluation at the hospital. Time will tell if that’s something to monitor or another at all.

John Means – SP Baltimore Orioles

The hope is that this setback is a minor one and that he can pitch at some point this year. The injury happened at some point last month but Means himself thinks that he has gotten past it. He has yet to throw again since then, so that’ll be a big hurdle to clear before anything else. He had previously advanced to throwing all of his pitches, so he was doing well. Keep in mind, he is recovering from Tommy John Surgery, so he is more of a 2024 option.

Trevor Story – 2BSS Boston Red Sox

This coincides with the report that he could return earlier than expected as just a designated hitter. He continues to be a nice stash in leagues with spots on the Injured List.

Alex Faedo – SP Detroit Tigers

Faedo is feeling better after having a right fingernail removed. He had not been able to hold a ball and throw, so this is a nice development. Look for him to ramp up and start throwing, though he will likely need a rehab outing or two.

Gio Urshela – INF Los Angeles Angels

Urshela has been in and out of the lineup for about a week now. He may end up on the Injured List if things don’t improve.

Johnny Cueto – SP Miami Marlins

It’s been a while since Cueto last pitched for the Marlins due to an abundance of injuries. While this outing is promising, he will likely need a few more of these before he returns.

Robbie Ray – SP Seattle Mariners

Ray’s recovery from Tommy John Surgery last month continues as he’s been officially placed on the 60-day Injured List.

Lars Nootbar – OF St. Louis Cardinals

Nootbar had some discomfort while swinging off of a tee last week, but he appears to be recovered from that ailment. Look for that rehab assignment to start within the next week, but it could be a long one since he’s been out for almost one month.

Ryan Helsley – RP St. Louis Cardinals

The good news is that there is no structural damage, so anything incredibly long-term seems to be off the table for now. However, with Helsely shut down from throwing for several days, we are likely looking at a lengthy absence. He will undoubtedly need a rehab assignment once he’s at that point. He potentially has a long road ahead of him.

Josh Fleming – SP Tampa Bay Rays

Fleming was already transferred over to the 60-day Injured List this weekend. Now, with potential inflammation and cartilage build-up, we could be looking at an even more time away from the team. Stay tuned.

Pete Fairbanks – RP Tampa Bay Rays

This will be the second time he has thrown at the team’s Florida Conmple League base, and if this goes well, he may be back shortly afterward. There’s been no word on if he will require a rehab assignment or not.

Jon Gray – SP Texas Rangers

Consider Gray DTD and available to start once the blister goes away.
