Romy Gonzalez

BOS 1st Baseman #23

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

MassLive’s Chris Cotillo reports that the Red Sox “envision a big role for Romy Gonzalez (shoulder) when he returns from injury.

Gonzalez will start a rehab assignment on Tuesday and missed all of spring training, so he could need at least three weeks in the minors to get his timing down. When he does return, Red Sox manager Chad Tracy made it clear that Gonzalez would play against lefties and could also DH or play second base against righties, except against “certain righties where it doesn’t make sense.” Gonzalez played 96 games for the Red Sox last season but hit .305 with nine homers, 23 doubles, 53 RBIs, and an .826 OPS. Given his multi-position eligibility, Gonzalez could be a sneaky stash in a week or two before he officially returns.
Spencer Strider

ATL Starting Pitcher #99

Spencer Strider (elbow) will be shut down from throwing for four weeks and then undergo a follow-up MRI

If that follow-up scan is clear, Strider will then begin a throwing progression, which will include full ramp-up and then facing live hitters, etc. That means it’s likely two months before we see Strider on the mound for the Braves, if all goes well, and that would be mid-August. It’s hard to recommend holding him in any redraft format.
Christian Scott

NYM Starting Pitcher #45

Christian Scott will go on the injured list with an undisclosed injury, The Athletic reports.

The New York Post’s Jon Heyman says it’s a hip issue, and it’s supposed to be relatively minor. Jonah Tong could be recalled to fill in for him. Kodai Senga was expected to make another rehab start, but he could be activated early.
Nathan Eovaldi

TEX Starting Pitcher #17

Nathan Eovaldi worked seven innings and allowed three runs to defeat the Red Sox on Sunday Night Baseball.

Eovaldi gave up two homers to Willson Contreras, but no one else did much damage. He allowed six hits, walked one and struck out six in all. It’s the seventh time in 14 starts this season that he’s completed seven innings. He’s now 6-7 with a 4.23 ERA, and he’s due for a home start against the Padres next weekend.
Corey Seager

TEX Shortstop #5

Corey Seager is not in the lineup Sunday due to “mild” concussion symptoms.

Seager is out of the lineup for Sunday’s game against the Red Sox, and the symptoms come from a collision at home plate against the Royals on Thursday. The 32-year-old is considered day-to-day, but he’ll need to be clear of those symptoms before he gets back in the lineup.
Logan Webb

SF Starting Pitcher #62

Logan Webb allowed only an unearned run over eight innings and struck out seven in the Giants’ 5-1 defeat of the Cubs on Sunday.

Webb is known for being a groundball pitcher, of course, but he got a bunch of lazy flies today in improving to 4-4 with a 3.46 ERA. It’s the second straight start in which he’s pitched eight innings and allowed one run, as he did so in a no-decision against the Nationals last week. He’s allowed a total of two earned runs in 27 1/3 innings over four starts since coming off the IL. Next up for him is start in Miami against the Marlins.
Hunter Goodman

COL Catcher #15

Hunter Goodman homered twice while going 5-for-6 to help the Rockies to a 23-9 rout of the Athletics on Sunday.

Taking advantage of the conditions in Las Vegas, the teams combined for eight homers today, with the Rockies responsible for six of them. Goodman is now up to 20 homers on the season, and he took Jeffrey Springs deep in the first inning to give Colorado a 2-0 lead. That was one of six homers on the day for Colorado, and the slugger added a second while also singling thrice for a five-hit night. Goodman has looked the part again in 2026, and there’s not much reason to think he won’t be among the best fantasy catchers in baseball for the foreseeable future.
Cooper Pratt

MIL Shortstop #87

Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports that the Brewers will promote INF Cooper Pratt from Triple-A Nashville on Tuesday.

Pratt was removed from Sunday’s game for Nashville in the sixth inning, and he’ll now have a chance to make his MLB debut against the Guardians this week. The 21-year-old was signed to a long-term extension prior to the start of the season, and while he’s forged an underwhelming .241/.349/.386 slash in the minors, he is considered one of the better prospects in the Milwaukee system. Fantasy managers may want to see how he handles pitching before rushing to add him to their roster in 2026.
Noah Schultz

CWS Starting Pitcher #76

Noah Schultz (knee) will make a rehab start Tuesday for Triple-A Charlotte.

Schultz will make his first rehab start after completing a bullpen session Wednesday. The 22-year-old will be joined in his rehab assignment by catcher Kyle Teel, as all things appear to be coming up White Sox in 2026. Schultz will likely need to make a couple of rehab appearances, and then could rejoin the Chicago rotation before the end of June.
Grayson Rodriguez

LAA Starting Pitcher #21

Grayson Rodriguez exited Sunday’s start against the Rays with lower back tightness.

Rodriguez was grimacing after firing a pitch that hit Cedric Mullins in the third inning before exiting with a trainer. The Angels will all but assuredly need Rodriguez to undergo imaging to determine if there’s anything structurally wrong with the 26-year-old, but either way, there’s no guarantee he’ll be able to make his next scheduled start next weekend.
