Jake Meyers

HOU Center Fielder #6

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
Jake Meyers was removed from Wednesday’s game against the Rockies with lower back tightness.

Meyers was lifted from the contest following an awkward-looking check swing during his first at-bat of the contest. The 29-year-old dealt with a back issue during spring training so it’s possible he’ll require a trip to the injured list to put the issue to bed. The injuries are starting to pile up for the Astros at this point. An extended absence from Meyers would likely result in Joey Loperfido handling center field on an everyday basis with Brice Matthews getting more time in left field.

Trevor Martin

TB Middle Reliever

Rays optioned RHP Trevor Martin to Triple-A Durham.

Martin is sent down to make room for Jon Heasley. The 25-year-old will likely be up and down for the majority of 2026.

Gavin Lux

TB Left Fielder #11

Rays transferred INF/OF Gavin Lux from the 10-day injured list to the 60-day injured list.

Lux has been dealing with both shoulder and leg injuries and has yet to be able to play in 2026. The 28-year-old doesn’t have a timetable for a return, and his placement on the 60-day injured list opens a spot on the 40-man roster for Jon Heasley.

Brandon Marsh

PHI Left Fielder #16
Brandon Marsh (finger) is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday’s game against the Padres.

Marsh left Tuesday’s game versus San Diego with a right middle finger sprain. Unsurprisingly, he’ll get Wednesday off while recovering, and Edmundo Sosa will get the start in left field.

José Berríos

TOR Starting Pitcher #17

Blue Jays transferred RHP José Berríos from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day injured list.

This clears room on the 40-man roster for the recently acquired Connor Seabold. Berrios is going to miss the remainder of 2026 after undergoing Tommy John surgery, so this is just a procedural move. The hope is that Berrios will be ready for the summer of 2027.

Juanmi Vasquez

DET

Tigers acquired LHP Juanmi Vasquez from the Blue Jays in exchange for RHP Connor Seabold.

Vasquez is a 22-year-old southpaw who has forged a 5.87 ERA in 12 appearances for High-A Vancouver with a 35/23 K/BB over 23 innings. It’s hard to see a path to relevance, but Detroit will see if they can work some magic.

Connor Seabold

TOR Relief Pitcher #43

Blue Jays acquired RHP Connor Seabold from the Tigers in exchange for LHP Juanmi Vasquez.

Seabold was designated for assignment by the Tigers on Sunday, and unsurprisingly, there was interest in the right-hander. He’ll provide some multi-inning depth in the Toronto bullpen.

Alejandro Kirk

TOR Catcher #30

Blue Jays transferred C Alejandro Kirk from the 10-day injured list to the 60-day injured list.

Kirk’s movement clears room on the 40-man roster for Austin Voth. The 27-year-old is still recovering from his fractured thumb, and the Blue Jays are hoping he’ll be able to return during the summer. The placement on the 60-day list doesn’t change that timeline.

Tanner Andrews

TOR Relief Pitcher

Blue Jays optioned RHP Tanner Andrews to Triple-A Buffalo.

Andrews worked in back-to-back games for Toronto after receiving his first MLB promotion, and he pitched well with three scoreless innings. He’ll head back to Triple-A so Toronto can call up a fresher Austin Voth, but there’s a good chance Andrews is back with Toronto before the summer ends.

Austin Voth

TOR Relief Pitcher #30

Blue Jays selected the contract of RHP Austin Voth.

Voth will get his second stint with Toronto in 2026 to provide some middle-inning depth. The 33-year-old gets the nod over Tanner Andrews, after Andrews was optioned to Buffalo to make room.
