Cardinals signed RHP Harold Arauz to a minor league contract.

Arauz, 23, registered a 4.69 ERA, 1.44 WHIP, and 125/44 K/BB ratio over 140 innings (26 starts) this past year between the Double-A and Triple-A affiliates of the Phillies. Philly acquired him from the Astros back in 2015 as part of a trade involving Vince Velasquez, Ken Giles, and Mark Appel, among others.

Seth Johnson

PHI Relief Pitcher #51

Phillies recalled RHP Seth Johnson from Triple-A Lehigh Valley.

Johnson has been serving as a closer in Triple-A, recording two saves while allowing two runs on three hits in six innings. He also has an 11/3 K/BB ratio. He should be part of the bridge to Jhoan Duran in the late innings.

April 13, 2026 01:42 PM

Eric Samulski analyzes Minnesota's depth after Royce Lewis is sidelined with a knee sprain and reveals which Twins players would most benefit fantasy managers while the third baseman is out.

Jonathan Bowlan

PHI Relief Pitcher #52

Phillies placed RHP Jonathan Bowlan on the 15-day injured list with a right groin strain

Bowlan has already made seven appearances for the Phillies this season, allowing three runs on eight hits in seven innings with an 8/1 K/BB ratio. He should be sidelined for a few weeks.

Cade Povich

BAL Starting Pitcher #37

Orioles optioned LHP Cade Povich to Triple-A Norfolk.

Povich had a solid start on Sunday against the Giants, but with Dean Kremer now up to take a spot in the rotation, the Orioles can send Povich back down to Triple-A. The left-hander should be the next man up if the Orioles need another starter.

Dean Kremer

BAL Starting Pitcher #64

Orioles recalled RHP Dean Kremer from Triple-A Norfolk.

Kremer allowed three runs on eight hits in 9 1/3 innings at Triple with a 12/2 K/BB ratio. He has been a consistent, low-ceiling option for fantasy managers in recent years, but is probably not worth a stream against the Diamondbacks in shallower formats.

Thomas White

MIA Starting Pitcher

Marlins LHP prospect Thomas White (oblique) is being promoted back to Triple-A Jacksonville.

White had a Grade 1 oblique strain at the beginning of March and was moved to Minor League Camp. He then started the season with Low-A Jupiter, throwing six innings across two starts while striking out 10 and walking six. He remains one of the better starting pitching prospects in baseball and could be up with the Marlins over the summer.

Gabriel Moreno

AZ Catcher #14
Gabriel Moreno (back) remains out of the lineup on Monday against the Orioles.

This is now the third straight game Moreno has missed. It had previously been reported that he would wind up on the injured list, but, so far, the Diamondbacks have not decided to make that move. Instead, Adrian Del Castillo will start behind the dish and bat fourth, which will allow Jose Fernandez to bat fifth and be the designated hitter.

Yordan Alvarez

HOU Left Fielder #44

Yordan Alvarez will start in left field and bat second against the Mariners on Monday.

This will now be Alvarez’s fifth start in the outfield this season, which means he will have outfield eligibility in certain fantasy formats. That’s not only great for his fantasy managers, but this has continued to allow Isaac Paredes to get in the lineup at designated hitter. The question will be how long this experiment lasts, given Alvarez’s injury history.

Evan Sisk

PIT Relief Pitcher

Pirates recalled LHP Evan Sisk from Triple-A Indianapolis.

With Hunter Barco going back to the minors, Sisk will come up to be a multi-inning left-hander reliever for the Piraes. He came to the Pirates at the trade deadline last year as part of the Bailey Falter trade. The 28-year-old had a 3.57 ERA and a 25/10 K/BB ratio in 17 2/3 MLB innings and had allowed just one earned run in 7 2/3 innings at Triple-A with a 14/7 K/BB ratio.

Hunter Barco

PIT Starting Pitcher #45

Pirates have optioned LHP Hunter Barco to Triple-A Indianapolis

Barco looks good this spring, but has had a rough go as a long reliever to open the season, allowing seven runs (five earned) on eight hits in seven innings with a 5/7 K/BB ratio. It makes sense for him to go back down to the minors and get stretched out to work as a starter again.

Jeremy Peña

HOU Shortstop #3
Astros placed SS Jeremy Peña on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to April 12, with a hamstring strain.

Peña’s injury was originally described as knee tightness, but now the Astros are saying it’s a grade one hamstring strain. That’s not ideal, but Peña still might make it back around the end of the month. Until then, the Astros will be able to play Isaac Paredes and the rest of their infielders regularly, with Carlos Correa starting at short. Joey Loperfido figures to get more time in left with Yordan Alvarez DHing most games.
