Ronny Mauricio

NYM 3rd Baseman #0

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
Mets optioned IF Ronny Mauricio and RHP Joey Gerber to Triple-A Syracuse; reassigned RHP Mike Baumann and LHP Brandon Waddell to minor league camp.

Mauricio had hit .313/.389/.531 in Spring Training, but it wasn’t quite enough to hold on to him in a utility role. He’ll start at Syracuse and look to get back to the bigs in the near-term future. Mauricio hit .323/.384/.508 in 73 minor league plate appearances last year, including .515/.564/.818 in Syracuse for 39 plate appearances.

NYY Left Fielder #24

Jasson Domínguez left Wednesday’s game in the fourth inning after being hit by a pitch.

Domínguez was hit on the inside of his left elbow while batting left-handed on Wednesday. He was able to stay in the game and run the bases, but he was removed when the Yankees went back out into the field. We’ll wait to hear if there is any concern for a trip to the injured list.

Luis Robert Jr.

NYM Center Fielder #88
Luis Robert Jr. (back) remains out of the lineup on Wednesday against the Nationals.

Robert Jr. is dealing with lower back tightness and has missed the last three games. It’s unclear if the Mets will put him on the injured list, but Tyrone Taylor will start in center field and sixth on Wednesday.

Gerrit Cole

NYY Starting Pitcher #45

Gerrit Cole (elbow) allowed three runs on three hits in 5 2/3 innings for Double-A Somerset on Wednesday.

Cole struck out three and didn’t walk anybody while throwing 45 of his 60 pitches for strikes. He did allow two home runs, which means he’s allowed four home runs in his three rehab starts, but the Yankees care far more about the health of his arm and his pitch count. Cole should push over 70 pitches in his next outing.

Chris Devenski

PIT Relief Pitcher #49

Pirates selected the contract of RHP Chris Devenski from Triple-A Indianapolis.

Devenski has been good at Triple-A this season, pitching to a 1.13 ERA, 0.75 WHIP, and 14/2 K/BB ratio in eight innings at Triple-A. He should add some veteran experience to the Pirates’ bullpen.

Daniel Palencia

CHC Relief Pitcher #48
The Athletic’s Patrick Mooney reports that “Daniel Palencia (lat strain) has made enough progress that the team is considering activating him Friday.”

This is the first update we’ve had on Palencia since he was put on the injured list back on April 17th. It seems that Palencia won’t need a rehab assignment before returning to the Cubs. We’ll wait to see if Palencia can progress enough to actually return this weekend, but it seems like he’s not far off. That would take away most of the fantasy value for Ben Brown and Phil Maton.

Ryan Harbin

PIT Starting Pitcher #84

Pirates designated RHP Ryan Harbin for assignment.

Harbin is currently on the 60-day IL with a lat injury and had a 4.69 ERA in 63 1/3 minor league innings last year. The Pirates needed room on the 40-man roster for Chris Devenski.

Luis Mey

CIN Relief Pitcher #47

Reds recalled RHP Luis Mey from Triple-A Louisville.

Mey has a 4.91 ERA, 1.45 WHIP, and 14/3 K/BB ratio in 11 innings at Triple-A this season. He has a 3.43 ERA in 21 career MLB innings.

Graham Ashcraft

CIN Relief Pitcher #23

Reds placed RHP Graham Ashcraft on the bereavement list.

We hope the best for Ashcraft and his family. He should be out for a few games and could return to the Reds’ bullpen this weekend.

Tanner McDougal

CWS Starting Pitcher #68

White Sox RHP prospect Tanner McDougal left his Triple-A start with right forearm tightness.

McDougal is the 86th-ranked prospect in all of baseball, according to Baseball America, and a consensus Top 10 prospect in the White Sox’s system. He has a 3.13 ERA, 1.09 WHIP, and 26/13 K/BB ratio in 23 innings at Triple-A this season. The White Sox will hope that the forearm tightness is not a precursor to a more significant injury.

Liam Hicks

MIA Catcher #34
Liam Hicks is starting at catcher and batting fifth on Wednesday against the Dodgers.

Hicks was a late scratch on Tuesday with an illness, but he will just miss one game and be back in the lineup. Agustin Ramirez is out of the lineup with Kyle Stowers at DH and Esteury Ruiz starting in left field and batting ninth.
