    Chase Dollander (elbow) underwent a season-ending internal brace procedure earlier this week.

    Dollander is facing an extended absence despite undergoing a less invasive procedure than a full Tommy John ligament replacement, which typically carries a 12-18 month return timeline. The 24-year-old burgeoning Rockies ace was off to a phenomenal start with a pristine 3.89 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 47/18 K/BB ratio across 44 innings prior to hitting the shelf with an elbow strain back in mid-May. Fantasy managers shouldn’t anticipate him back until some point in the 2027 campaign.
Pages heads to IL, no longer fantasy relevant
Eric Samulski gives the latest on Dodgers outfielder Andy Pages as he was placed on IL and will no longer be relevant for fantasy managers as he is expected to be out most of the remainder of the regular season.

    Corbin Burnes (shoulder) and Zac Gallen (elbow) will face hitters in a simulated game on Tuesday.

    It’s technically a bridge league game in the Arizona Complex League where the Diamondbacks have control over the environment. Technically, it won’t be a minor league rehab start, but both Burnes and Gallen should be able to get their work in. Burnes is aiming for 25 pitches over one inning, while Gallen is targeting up to 50 pitches over three innings, per Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo. It seems like both starters have a chance to make it back during the final month of the season, which would provide a lift for Arizona’s rotation mix that just lost Michael Soroka to a shoulder issue.

    Justin Steele (elbow) is scheduled to face hitters in a live batting practice session on Tuesday.

    Steele is expected to pitch in relief once he makes it back to Chicago at some point in the final month of the season. The 31-year-old former top-of-the-rotation southpaw suffered a flexor strain earlier this season while working his way back from last year’s Tommy John surgery. He’ll need to get through at least one additional live batting practice session before heading out on a rehab assignment.

    Nick Pivetta (elbow) will make a minor league rehab start for Low-A Lake Elsinore this week.

    Pivetta is running out of time to make it back to San Diego, but continues to make gradual progress after an injury scare earlier this month. The 33-year-old has been out with a flexor strain that sent him to the injured list back in mid-April. There’s a chance he makes it back to San Diego at some point in the final month of the year.

    Joe Musgrove (elbow) will make another minor league rehab start for Triple-A El Paso on Thursday.

    Musgrove’s timeline to return to San Diego’s rotation mix remains rather nebulous, but he figures to be ready to contribute at some point in the final month of the season. The 33-year-old is working his way back from Tommy John surgery and hasn’t pitched in a big-league contest since the 2024 postseason.

    Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo told reporters Ketel Marte (knee) is on track to return early next week.

    Marte’s bizarre odyssey appears to be coming to an end. The 32-year-old second baseman will return to Arizona’s lineup after missing roughly two weeks with left knee inflammation. He’ll obviously need to address his off-field actions with his teammates upon returning, but the Diamondbacks could certainly use his formidable bat in the lineup as they attempt to make a playoff push over the final month of the regular season.

    Padres selected the contract of OF Dustin Harris from Triple-A El Paso.

    Harris has bounced around between a couple different organizations, hitting .233 (10-for-43) with four steals in 17 games between the White Sox and Astros earlier this season. The 27-year-old will occupy a bench role with the Padres after tearing the cover off the ball at Triple-A El Paso for the last month.

    Padres optioned INF Sung-Mun Song to Triple-A El Paso.

    The Padres are going to give outfielder Dustin Harris a look in a bench role with Song heading back to the minors. He’s played sparingly in his first taste of the majors, hitting just .202/.305/.263 with one homer and 12 steals in 134 plate appearances over 62 games in his Padres debut.

    Padres transferred RHP Lucas Giolito to the 60-day injured list.

    Giolito is presumably done for the season after hitting the injured list with elbow inflammation back in late June. The procedural move frees up a spot on San Diego’s 40-man roster for outfielder Dustin Harris.

    Bryan Woo (shoulder) said he 100 percent expects to make his next start against the Phillies on Wednesday.

    There was plenty of reason to suspect that Woo would wind up requiring a trip to the injured list after experiencing shoulder soreness during his previous outing against the Astros back on August 16. The 26-year-old was able to complete a bullpen session over the weekend without any issues and should be ready to take the ball later this week. Obviously, fantasy managers should keep a close eye on his status in the coming weeks.

    Colt Emerson will undergo season-ending left wrist surgery later this week.

    It felt like an inevitable outcome when Emerson hit the injured list with left wrist tendon inflammation earlier this month. The 21-year-old former top prospect is expected to be ready for the outset of spring training. He wraps up a mostly underwhelming rookie campaign hitting .190/.246/.335 with eight homers, 23 RBI and three steals in 241 plate appearances over 69 games. He’ll take over as Seattle’s shortstop next season with J.P. Crawford slated to hit free agency at the end of the current season.
