Steven Matz

TB Starting Pitcher #32

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Steven Matz allowed one run with one strikeout over six innings in a no-decision against the Giants on Sunday.

Matz gave up a run in the first inning on two hits. He then settled in nicely, going five more scoreless frames, scattering two more hits and walking two batters. Matz threw 60 of 89 pitches for strikes and generated six groundouts. The 34-year-old left-hander will take a 3.86 ERA, 1.10 WHIP, and a 28/13 K/BB ratio across 37 1//3 innings into a start against the Red Sox in Boston on Friday.

Jared Jones

PIT Starting Pitcher #17

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Pirates general manager Ben Cherington said that “it’s certainly possible” that Jared Jones (elbow) will be activated from the injured list in May.

Jones is set to make another rehab start on Tuesday for Double-A Altoona, which will be his third rehab start. Cherington acknowledged that Jones will “probably toggle back and forth between Double-A and Triple-A as we get deeper into the rehab assignment,” which means he could start next week in Triple-A and then be activated when he’s eligible on May 26th. We’ll see how he pitches on Tuesday to get a better idea of how close he is.

Yu Darvish

SD Starting Pitcher #11

Yu Darvish has begun throwing on flat ground as he recovers from offseason elbow surgery.

Darvish had surgery in October to repair his right ulnar collateral ligament with an internal brace and a flexor tendon repair. He posted on his Twitter account that he has started playing catch. Given the timing of his surgery, he is likely out for the entire 2026 season, but it seems as though the 39-year-old has not officially called it a career.

Chandler Simpson

TB Left Fielder #14

Rays manager Kevin Cash said Chandler Simpson left last night’s game with a leg injury that “might just have been a cramp more than anything.”

Cash said that all the strength tests done after the game were good, and Simpson’s health, “from all the reports, sounds really good.” He did acknowledge that Simpson would likely get a day off on Tuesday with a left-hander on the mound, but he doesn’t expect Simpson to miss more time.

Rafael Devers

SF 1st Baseman #16

Rafael Devers went 2-for-3 with a homer, two walks and three runs scored as the Giants took down the Dodgers 9-3 on Monday.

Devers homered on a splitter that Roki Sasaki left up on the zone. It was his third homer in five games, bringing his season total to five in 168 plate appearances. It’s the first time this year that he’s scored three runs. He’s totaled seven runs scored in his last five games after touching home plate just nine times in his first 36 games.

Trevor McDonald

SF Starting Pitcher #72

Trevor McDonald yielded three runs and nine hits in 5 1/3 innings Monday in a no-decision against the Dodgers.

McDonald, who was recalled from Triple-A on Saturday, struck out four and walked two while filling in for Logan Webb. He should make another start Saturday against the A’s, but Webb could be back to replace him afterwards.

Keaton Winn

SF Relief Pitcher #67
Keaton Winn settled for a hold after pitching a scoreless eighth against the Dodgers on Monday.

Winn might have been left in to go for the two-inning save if the Giants didn’t score three runs in the top of the ninth, taking their lead from three runs to six. JT Brubaker went on to finish from there. Winn also threw a quick seven-pitch inning on Sunday, so the Giants will probably want to avoid him on Tuesday. Caleb Kilian should be the favorite for the save then.

Roki Sasaki

LAD Starting Pitcher #11

Roki Sasaki wasn’t involved in the decision against the Giants after allowing three runs in five innings on Monday.

Three runs in five innings seems to be the Sasaki standard. If the Dodgers were hitting like they did last year, that’d be good enough to get him some wins. Right now, though, he’s 1-3 and the Dodgers are 2-5 when he pitches. He might be Triple-A bound when Tyler Glasnow returns, but he’s due to get another start Sunday against the Angels before that happens.

Willy Adames

SF Shortstop #2

Willy Adames knocked in three runs with a pair of singles Monday against the Dodgers.

Adames had three hard-hit balls in one of his best games of the season. His two outs were 390- and 346-foot flyballs, and the latter would have been a homer to right field in eight ballparks.

Shohei Ohtani

LAD Starting Pitcher #17

Shohei Ohtani went 0-for-5 against the Giants in Monday’s loss.

Ohtani grounded out three times and struck out twice while seeing his average drop back down to .233. The Dodgers said after the game that he’ll be out of the lineup either Wednesday (when he’s due to pitch) or Thursday for some extra rest.

George Kirby

SEA Starting Pitcher #68

George Kirby pitched five innings of one-run ball Monday in the Mariners’ 3-1 defeat of the Astros.

The Mariners prevailed tonight even though they were outhit nine to seven and outwalked three to one. Kirby struck out seven and walked two in moving to 5-2. His strikeout rate is down some, but he’s more than countered it by generating more grounders, and he’ll take a 2.84 ERA into his next start against the Padres.
