  • MIL Catcher

    Devil Rays placed catcher Shawn Riggans on the 15-day disabled list with a right elbow injury.
    Riggans was on the minor league DL with a similar problem before he was called up by the Rays last month. It sounds like he might have rushed back after noticing the opportunity in Tampa Bay that opened up when Josh Paul got hurt. Raul Casanova will replace him.
  • TOR Starting Pitcher #17

    José Berríos (elbow) is expected to begin a minor league rehab assignment next week.
    The expectation is that the 31-year-old hurler will throw around 50 pitches in his first rehab start and build up from there. If everything goes according to plan, he could be an option to join the Jays’ rotation in late April or early May.
    'No one can touch' Miller right now
    James Schiano outlines just how impressive Mason Miller has been for the Padres.
  • TB Starting Pitcher #57
    Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports that the Rays are looking to have Drew Rasmussen start on Sunday against the Yankees.
    Topkin notes that there are still discussions to be had before that’s confirmed though. Rasmussen missed his start on Tuesday as his wife went into labor and he landed on the paternity list. If he does indeed go on Sunday, that means Shane McClanahan will have his start pushed back until Tuesday against the White Sox in Chicago.
  • ATH Right Fielder #25
    Brent Rooker (right flank discomfort) is not in the Athletics’ starting lineup on Friday against the Mets.
    Zach Gelof was spotted in the clubhouse by MLB.com’s Martin Gallegos and it would not be surprising if Rooker was sent to the injured list, though it hasn’t happened yet. Carlos Cortes is DHing for the A’s in Rooker’s absence.
  • MIA 3rd Baseman #63
    Marlins recalled 1B/3B Deyvison De Los Santos from Triple-A Jacksonville.
    We’ll see if De Los Santos can crack the Marlins lineup in his second stint with the club in the last couple weeks. He’s not in the lineup tonight as Javier Sanoja handles left field with a righty on the mound. Until then, he’s a speculative pickup at best and probably is someone fantasy managers should monitor rather than rush to the waiver wire for.
  • MIA Left Fielder #18
    Marlins placed OF Griffin Conine on the 10-day injured list with a torn hamstring.
    Conine was off to a nice start at the head of a platoon in left field for the Marlins, but will likely miss significant time with this and surgery is likely for the 28-year-old left fielder. Heriberto Hernández has been the starter against lefties and figures to get some of Conine’s time, but it may not be quite as open-and-shut as that with Deyvison De Los Santos up from Triple-A Jacksonville and Kyle Stowers due back soon.
  • BAL Left Fielder #17
    Colton Cowser is not in the starting lineup Friday against the Giants.
    Cowser has now played in just three of the last six games for the Orioles as Tyler O’Neill and Dylan Beavers are both pushing for playing time. Cowser is hitting just .182/.269/.227 with no homers and steals through his first 27 plate appearances and doesn’t necessarily have the look of someone who needs to be rostered in 12-team leagues.
  • TB Center Fielder #14
    Chandler Simpson is batting leadoff for the Rays against the Yankees on Friday.
    It’s his first appearance in the leadoff spot all season, and he’s typically hit fifth or lower in the lineup. It would be great news for Simpson’s fantasy value if this continued. The speedester is off to a .391/.429/.435 start in his first 49 plate appearances and has five steals over that timespan.
  • NYM 3rd Baseman #27
    Mark Vientos is not in New York’s starting lineup on Friday against the Athletics.
    After starting the last seven games in a row, this appears to just be a routine day off for Vientos, who is hitless in his last three appearances. Ronny Mauricio is starting at third base for the Mets and batting seventh.
  • NYM 2nd Baseman #11
    Jorge Polanco (Achilles) is not in the lineup for New York’s Friday game against the Athletics.
    It’s his second straight missed game and he has DHed the last four appearances he’s been available. Polanco told reporters that he is feeling better and doesn’t believe he’ll need an IL stint. With Carlos Mendoza acknowledging an IL trip may be necessary for Polanco, it’d be wise to not count on him this weekend if you can make other plans in your lineup.
  • NYY Starting Pitcher #81
    Yankees recalled RHP Luis Gil from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.
    He’ll get the start against the Rays on Friday. Gil isn’t a must-trust in his first start of the season, but he’s a reasonable streaming option in deeper leagues against a Tampa Bay lineup that has scored just 4.58 runs per game in its first 12 outings.
