Ricardo Pinto

PHI Relief Pitcher #51

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Phillies sent RHP Ricardo Pinto outright to Triple-A Lehigh Valley.

Pinto has the option to elect free agency, but could wind up sticking around as extra organizational relief depth. The 30-year-old righty made it back to the majors this year for the first time since 2019, getting into six contests for the Phillies before being jettisoned from the club’s 40-man roster.

Diamondbacks transferred 1B/OF Pavin Smith to the 60-day injured list.

Smith has been on the shelf since late March recovering from elbow inflammation. The procedural move opens up a spot on Arizona’s 40-man roster for emergency catcher Aramis Garcia.

Roman Anthony

BOS Right Fielder #19

Roman Anthony is back in left field on Tuesday against the Twins.

Anthony finds himself in left field for just the third time in Boston’s last 12 contests due to some highly-publicized throwing issues. He’s been a liability when he’s out there but the Red Sox don’t have much of a choice given their present roster limitations.

Johan Oviedo

BOS Starting Pitcher #29

Red Sox transferred RHP Johan Oviedo to the 60-day injured list.

The procedural move frees up a spot on Boston’s 40-man roster for rookie Jack Anderson. Oviedo hit the shelf with a flexor strain earlier this month and will be sidelined until at least early June, if not longer.

Spencer Strider

ATL Starting Pitcher #99

Spencer Strider (oblique) will begin a minor league rehab assignment on Thursday with High-A Rome.

Strider is expected to throw roughly 40-45 pitches during his rehab debut. The 27-year-old former fantasy ace will need at least a handful of tune-up outings before he’s ready to make his season debut, likely at some point in early May. He’s been on the shelf recovering from an oblique strain since the late stages of spring training.

Cole Ragans

KC Starting Pitcher #55

Cole Ragans (thumb) will start on Tuesday against the Tigers.

Ragans managed to avoid serious injury after being struck by a comebacker during last Wednesday’s outing against the Guardians, which led to his early exit in the first inning after throwing just 18 pitches. The 28-year-old fantasy ace is not expected to have any workload limitations during a tough road matchup against the division-rival Tigers at Comerica Park.

Colt Keith

DET 2nd Baseman #33
Colt Keith is on the bench for Tuesday’s game against the Royals.

Keith draws a rare night off with rookie Kevin McGonigle at the hot corner while Javier Báez takes over at shortstop with Matt Vierling in center field to face Royals southpaw Cole Ragans. The 24-year-old has been one of Detroit’s primary offensive catalysts this season, slashing .340/.375/.472 with 10 runs scored, seven doubles and four RBI through 15 games.

Luis Arraez

SF 2nd Baseman #1

Luis Arraez (wrist) is back in the lineup for Tuesday’s series opener against the Reds.

It’s a great sign to see Arraez back at second base and hitting second after missing Sunday’s series finale against the Orioles with a wrist contusion. The 29-year-old suffered the injury during a bizarre on-field collision when he was inadvertently kicked by Baltimore rookie Dylan Beavers while making a throw to first base during Saturday’s game.

José Fermín was scratched from Tuesday’s lineup against the Guardians.

No word on the reason for the move. Thomas Saggese takes over in left field to face Guardians starter Joey Cantillo.

Tyler Fitzgerald

TOR 2nd Baseman #48

Blue Jays optioned 2B Tyler Fitzgerald to Triple-A Buffalo.

The move frees up a spot on Toronto’s active roster for recent addition Lenyn Sosa. The 28-year-old infielder didn’t end up making an appearance for the Blue Jays after being brought up from the minors last week.

Griff McGarry

LAD Relief Pitcher #25
Dodgers acquired RHP Griff McGarry from the Phillies for a player to be named later and cash.

McGarry provides Los Angeles with a serviceable relief option after failing to make Washington’s bullpen as a Rule 5 selection in spring training, which led to him being returned to the Phillies. The 26-year-old has yet to appear in the majors and will head to Triple-A Oklahoma City.
