Roman Anthony

BOS Left Fielder #19

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Roman Anthony (wrist, finger) has been shut down from swinging after experiencing discomfort while hitting off a batting tee.

Not good. The Red Sox are going to back off on Anthony’s ramp-up process after he experienced renewed wrist soreness earlier this week. The 22-year-old remains in a bit of a holding pattern as he deals with wrist and finger issues. Simply put, fantasy managers shouldn’t expect him back anytime soon.

George Springer

TOR Designated Hitter #4

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

George Springer is not in the Blue Jays’ starting lineup for Sunday’s series finale against the Orioles in Baltimore.

The Jays continue to mix in plenty of days off for Springer in an attempt to keep the 36-year-old healthy for the remainder of the season. Vladimir Guerrero Jr. will serve as the team’s designated hitter on Sunday while Charles McAdoo will draw a start at first base and will bat seventh for the Jays against Orioles’ right-hander Kyle Bradish.

Tyler Gilbert

CWS Relief Pitcher #40

White Sox placed LHP Tyler Gilbert on the family medical emergency list.

The 32-year-old left-hander will be away from the club for an undetermined amount of time as he deals with a family medical emergency. Chris Murphy was recalled from Triple-A Charlotte to take his spot in the White Sox’ bullpen.

Chris Murphy

CWS Relief Pitcher #38

White Sox recalled LHP Chris Murphy from Triple-A Charlotte.

With Tyler Gilbert away from the team due to a family medical emergency, Murphy will have another opportunity to show what he can do at the big league level. He holds a 10.50 ERA and 2.33 WHIP over six innings in six outings for the White Sox this season.

Cam Booser

TB Relief Pitcher

Rays recalled LHP Cam Booser from Triple-A Durham.

The 34-year-old southpaw has been outstanding at the Triple-A level this season, registering a 1.80 ERA, 0.95 WHIP and a 24/5 K/BB ratio across 20 innings of work. He’ll give manager Kevin Cash another weapon to deploy in the middle innings.

Andrew Wantz

TB Relief Pitcher #60

Rays designated RHP Andrew Wantz for assignment.

Wantz just had his contract selected from Triple-A Durham on Friday, but after getting blasted for five runs on two hits, two walks and two hit batsmen in 1 2/3 innings, he now loses his spot on the Rays’ roster. Cam Booser was recalled from Triple-A Durham in a corresponding move to replace him in the Rays’ bullpen. There’s a decent chance that Wantz slips through waivers unclaimed.

Trevor Martin

TB Middle Reliever

Rays recalled RHP Trevor Martin from Triple-A Durham.

Martin was just optioned out on Wednesday, but he’ll rejoin the Rays’ bullpen with Craig Kimbrel (wrist) landing on the injured list. The 25-year-old hurler holds a 3.68 ERA, 1.64 WHIP and a 5/3 K/BB ratio over 7 1/3 innings in four appearances with the Rays this season.

Craig Kimbrel

TB Relief Pitcher #46

Rays placed RHP Craig Kimbrel on the 15-day injured list, retroactive to May 28, with a right wrist strain.

Kimbrel made just one appearance with the Rays, striking out a pair of batters in a scoreless inning of work, before being shelved with a wrist injury. He’ll miss at least a couple of weeks. Trevor Martin was recalled from Triple-A Durham to take his place in the Rays’ bullpen.

Tommy Kahnle

BOS Relief Pitcher #43

Tommy Kahnle “100 percent” plans to exercise the opt-out clause in his minor league deal with the Red Sox on Monday if he’s not added to the Major League roster.

The 36-year-old changeup aficionado has been brilliant during his time at Triple-A Worcester this season, posting a 1.40 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and a 21/11 K/BB ratio over 19 1/3 innings. It’s now just about the Red Sox deciding if they want to make room for him on their 40-man roster.

Gleyber Torres

DET 2nd Baseman #25

Gleyber Torres (oblique) went 0-for-4 with a pair of strikeouts in his first minor league rehab game at Triple-A Toledo on Saturday.

The good news is that he made it through the game healthy, though a lot will ultimately depend on how he’s feeling on Sunday. If all goes well in Sunday’s game, there’s a chance that he could be cleared to return to the Tigers for Monday’s series opener against the Rays in Tampa Bay.

Max Muncy

ATH 3rd Baseman #3

Max Muncy (finger) began a minor league rehab assignment at Triple-A Las Vegas on Saturday.

The 23-year-old infielder has been sidelined since April 28 due to a fractured finger. Due to the long layoff, it’s likely that he’ll need at least several games worth of at-bats before he’s ready to rejoin the Athletics. Barring any setbacks, he should be ready to return by the end of next week.
