Shane Bieber

TOR Starting Pitcher #57

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Shane Bieber (elbow) allowed five runs in 5 1/3 innings for Triple-A Buffalo on Wednesday.

Bieber’s velocity was good, sitting around 92 mph with his four-seam fastball, but he threw just 48 of his 80 pitches for strikes and walked four hitters while striking out two. His next start could likely come with the Blue Jays, but we’d feel a whole lot more confident if he had good command today.
Teoscar Hernández

LAD Left Fielder #37

Dodgers’ manager Dave Roberts said that Teoscar Hernández (hamstring) is set to take live batting practice on Thursday.

The outfielder has been sidelined since May 28th with a hamstring strain. If his live batting practice goes well, he should begin a short rehab stint next week. That means that Ryan Ward may only have a little more than one week as a starting outfielder for the Dodgers.
Will Smith

LAD Catcher #16

Dodgers’ manager Dave Roberts said Will Smith (neck) is progressing, but he is “unlikely” to come off the injured list on Friday when eligible.

Smith went through a full workout on Tuesday and must have still felt some residual soreness from his neck inflammation. There is no firm timeline for his return, but he didn’t suffer a setback, so he likely won’t remain out for long. Dalton Rushing will continue to handle the majority of the catching reps for the Dodgers.
Vaughn Grissom

LAA 2nd Baseman #5

Angels activated INF Vaughn Grissom (oblique) from the 10-day injured list

Grissom has been out since June 8th with the oblique strain and could get right back into the starting lineup. The 25-year-old was hitting .246/.325/.410 with four homers and 27 RBI across 155 plate appearances through 40 games. He remains an option in deep fantasy leagues.
Gleyber Torres

DET 2nd Baseman #25

Tigers placed 2B Gleyber Torres on the 10-day injured list with a left oblique strain.

Torres injured himself on a swing on Monday and will head back to the injured list after spending a month there earlier in the season with the same injury. Given that he reinjured himself, we’d expect Torres to be sidelined at least a month this time as well, if not more, to ensure he heals fully. Hao-Yu Lee will be the primary starting second baseman in the meantime.
Maikel Garcia

KC 3rd Baseman #11

Maikel Garcia (left hand soreness) is not in the starting lineup on Wednesday against the Nationals.

Garcia had two plate appearances on Tuesday before being removed with hand soreness. While the Royals have said it was precautionary, it’s fair to wonder if the 26-year-old has been playing through something. Over his last 30 games, he’s slashing .263/.317/.333 with no home runs, 15 RBI, and just one steal. He has a nearly 40 percent hard-hit rate over that span, but just an 80 wRC+. With Garcia not running like he did the last three seasons and also struggling to produce much power, he’s not giving fantasy managers much this year. Nick Loftin will start at third base and bat eighth on Wednesday.
Carlos Santana

AZ 1st Baseman #41

Carlos Santana (oblique) was hit by a pitch three times in the Arizona Complex League on Tuesday.

Santana was removed from the game in the sixth inning, but the Diamondbacks could have very well just decided they didn’t want their 40-year-old first baseman to withstand any more abuse. Santana has been on the IL since April 7th with a groin injury and then suffered an oblique strain in early May while beginning a rehab assignment. In the meantime, Pavin Smith has returned to the Diamondbacks lineup, so it remains to be seen what happens to Santana’s playing time when he does return.
Tyler Mahle

SF Starting Pitcher #54

Tyler Mahle (hamstring) allowed one run on one hit in three innings for Triple-A Sacramento on Tuesday while walking five and striking out three.

Mahle threw just 33 of his 63 pitches for strikes and got three whiffs on 20 swings. His velocity was fine, sitting 93.2 mph on his four-seamer, which is better than we saw in recent MLB starts. However, given how inefficient he was, it would be shocking if the Giants brought him back later this week. We’d expect him to make at least one more start at Triple-A, which should allow Trevor McDonald to take another turn in the rotation.
George Lombard Jr.

NYY Shortstop #96

Yankees INF prospect George Lombard Jr. injured his wrist during Tuesday’s game for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

The Yankees’ top prospect was applying a tag on a stolen base attempt at second base when his wrist appeared to bend backwards. He immediately dropped his glove and held onto his wrist in clear pain. We will await word from the Yankees on the severity of the injury, but it didn’t look good on Tuesday.
Justin Wrobleski

LAD Starting Pitcher #70

Justin Wrobleski tossed six shutout innings with five strikeouts in a win over the Rays on Tuesday.

Wrobleski was outstanding on Tuesday, keeping the Rays off the board over six frames. He allowed just three hits and did not walk a batter, tossing an efficient 50-of-67 pitches for strikes and collecting five strikeouts. The 25-year-old left-hander will take a 2.72 ERA, 1.01 WHIP, and a 50/16 K/BB ratio across 79 1/3 innings into a start against the Twins in Minnesota next Tuesday.
