Athletics second baseman Zack Gelof (hand, ribs) will start a minor-league rehab assignment on Tuesday with Triple-A Las Vegas and will serve as the Aviators' designated hitter, according to MLB.com's Martin Gallegos. Gelof has been out of action since mid-March in spring training when he fractured the hamate bone in his right hand, and then the 25-year-old suffered a stress reaction in his ribs while on a rehab assignment last month. He has yet to play for the A's in 2025, but barring another setback on his current rehab assignment, it's possible that he'll be back with the big-league squad by next week. Once he's back, Gelof will have a shot to take over starting duties at second base in Sacramento. Gelof hit 14 bombs and stole 14 bags in 69 games in his rookie season in 2023. He struck out a league-high 188 times in 2024 but added 17 homers and 25 steals in 138 games, so the power/speed upside is intriguing.

Miami Marlins left-hander Braxton Garrett (elbow) played catch for the first time on Monday before the series opener against the division-rival Philadelphia Phillies since having Tommy John surgery last December, according to MLB.com's Christina De Nicola. It's a big milestone for the 27-year-old southpaw, although he will not be in play to pitch in the big leagues this year, even if his rehab progresses at a rapid pace in the second half. The goal for Braxton and the Marlins is to have him fully ready for spring training next February. In addition to having TJ surgery, the former first-rounder in 2016 had an internal-brace procedure. In his only full season in the big leagues in 2023, Garrett went 9-7 with a 3.66 ERA and 1.15 WHIP with 156 strikeouts and 29 walks in 159 2/3 frames over his 31 outings (30 starts). He has had TJ surgery twice already on his left elbow.

Miami Marlins outfielder Derek Hill (wrist) began a hitting progression on Monday, according to Christina De Nicola of MLB.com. Hill is making progress after landing on the 10-day injured list three weeks ago with a left-wrist sprain. The 29-year-old will most likely be required to go on a minor-league rehab assignment before rejoining the big-league roster, hopefully before the mid-July All-Star break. The former first-rounder by the Detroit Tigers in 2014 played in 23 games this year before his injury, going 17-for-73 (.233) with two home runs, four doubles, five RBI, 11 runs scored and six stolen bases. Hill won't be guaranteed regular playing time in Miami when he returns from the IL after striking out over 30% of the time with the Marlins, Rangers and Giants in 2024. At best, he'll be an option in NL-only leagues for his speed.

Miami Marlins outfielder Dane Myers (elbow) left the game on Monday early against the division-rival Philadelphia Phillies in the fourth inning due to left-elbow discomfort after being hit by a pitch. Myers will undergo testing on his elbow, at which point we'll have a better idea if he'll have to miss significant time. The 29-year-old didn't have an official at-bat before departing early. Kyle Stowers shifted from left field to center field and Heriberto Hernandez entered the game to play left field. If Myers needs a stint on the injured list, Stowers will likely move to center full time, with Hernandez and Javier Sanoja possibly involved in a platoon in left. Myers has been useful to fantasy managers in deeper leagues with his .333 average (43-for-129) and for his speed (eight steals), but otherwise his counting stats leave a lot to be desired.

Miami Marlins left-handed reliever Andrew Nardi (back) played catch on Monday, according to MLB.com's Christina De Nicola. Nardi is progressing after receiving an injection for lower-back pain on April 30, but there remains no timetable for his return from the 60-day injured list. When the 26-year-old southpaw is finally ready to face live hitters, he's likely to have an extended minor-league rehab assignment, so there's no guarantee that he'll be ready to make his 2025 debut with the Fish before the mid-July All-Star break. Although he had a 5.07 ERA in 49 2/3 relief innings in his third year in Miami in 2024, he had a 3.33 FIP with 70 strikeouts and 18 walks in 59 relief outings. Nardi also tied for the team lead with 15 holds, so he has the ability to be a key late-inning reliever for the Marlins when he's back healthy this year.

Miami Marlins right-hander Jesus Tinoco (forearm) resumed a throwing program on Monday, according to MLB.com's Christina De Nicola. Tinoco is recovering from a strained right forearm that has knocked him out for most of the month of June. The 30-year-old veteran is progressing, though, and will have a chance to come off the 15-day injured list before the All-Star break in mid-July as long as he doesn't suffer any setbacks once he resumes facing live hitters. In his first full season in Miami, Tinoco has already recorded a career-high four saves while also sporting a bloated 5.12 ERA (3.95 FIP) and 1.29 WHIP with 10 strikeouts and eight walks in 19 1/3 innings pitched over 20 appearances. He quickly moved into a high-leverage role for the Fish last year after stops with the Rangers and Cubs. When he returns, he could be in the mix for saves again at the back end of the Marlins' bullpen.

Houston Astros third baseman Isaac Paredes (hamstring) is back in the starting lineup for Monday's series opener in Sacramento against the Athletics, serving as the designated hitter and batting second versus A's right-hander Mitch Spence. Luis Guillorme will make another start at third base and bat ninth. Paredes missed the entire three-game series over the weekend after tweaking his left hamstring against the Chicago White Sox last Thursday, but he's back in action to start a new week for the 'Stros. The 26-year-old has been one of Houston's most productive bats in the first half of the season in his first year with the team, and he'll return to a .255/.353/.478 slash line with an .831 OPS, 15 homers, 42 RBI and 37 runs scored in 251 at-bats. Paredes has only faced Spence three times in his career and is hitless against him.

The San Diego Padres announced on Monday that they transferred right-hander Yu Darvish (elbow) to the 60-day injured list and selected the contract of outfielder Bryce Johnson from Triple-A El Paso in a corresponding move. The Padres also optioned catcher Luis Campusano to El Paso. Darvish has been out all season while rehabbing a right-elbow injury. The 38-year-old was nearing a return in May but then had his minor-league rehab assignment paused when he developed soreness in his elbow. The good news for the Friars is that the Japanese hurler threw a simulated game on Saturday and could be cleared to go on a short rehab assignment again before potentially rejoining the team's starting rotation before the mid-July All-Star break. Darvish can offer rotation help in mixed fantasy leagues when he returns, but the five-time All-Star isn't the swing-and-miss pitcher he once was.

Tampa Bay Rays manager Kevin Cash said that left-hander Shane McClanahan (triceps) threw from 100-plus feet last week and will fly to Texas on Tuesday to visit with nerve specialist Dr. Gregory Pearl. "Shane is doing great," Cash said. "I mean, really good. He says it's the best he's felt," Cash said. This is a positive development for McClanahan, who had recently been shut down due to more issues with his triceps. There remains no timetable for the 28-year-old southpaw's return in 2025, but we may have more answers after he visits with Pearl on Tuesday. The 28-year-old two-time All-Star and former first-rounder has not pitched at all since 2023 but deserves to be stashed in the event he's able to return to the Rays' rotation in the second half. With 456 strikeouts in 404 2/3 innings over his 74 starts in his first three big-league seasons, McClanahan has ace potential for fantasy managers.

Boston Red Sox rookie outfielder Roman Anthony is starting in right field and is batting third in Monday's series opener on the road against the Seattle Mariners and right-hander Logan Gilbert (elbow), who is making his first start off the 15-day injured list. Anthony is being moved up to third in the batting order after the team surprisingly traded Rafael Devers to the San Francisco Giants on Sunday. The 21-year-old had hit fifth in his first four big-league games after recently being called up. Infielder Kristian Campbell is serving as the designated hitter and is batting ninth, while David Hamilton starts at second and hits seventh. Anthony, the team's second-round pick in 2022, has gone just 1-for-17 with three RBI in his first six big-league games, but he'll now have added RBI and run-scoring opportunities the rest of the way with Devers out of the picture.
From RotoBaller
Athletics infielder Luis Urias is absent from the starting lineup ahead of Monday's game against the Houston Astros. This appears to be a routine rest day for Urias who has started in seven straight games. During that span, Urias has recorded at least one hit in six of those seven contests. His fantasy value hasn't been great this season, but at least Urias is heating up with the bat. Despite some success, Urias still doesn't bring enough to the table to warrant rostering in most fantasy formats. Max Schuemann will cover second base and bat ninth versus right-hander Ryan Gusto on Monday.
From RotoBaller
Athletics starting pitcher J.T. Ginn (quad) has been activated from the 15-day injured list on Monday. It appears Ginn is ready to return to the mound after missing about a month of action due to a strained quad. It's unclear whether Ginn will be used in the starting rotation or out of the bullpen. There's a decent chance he gets the ball at some point during the upcoming four-game series against the Houston Astros. Ginn has allowed three earned runs or more in three of his first four outings of the season. That being said, he's not a recommended fantasy option at the moment.
From RotoBaller
Athletics outfielder Denzel Clarke is out of the starting lineup ahead of Monday's game against the Houston Astros. Clarke will head to the bench after starting in each of the last three games. During that span, Clarke went 3-for-12 with a double, a stolen base, and one run scored. His defensive skills have been great, but Clarke isn't bringing much to the table with his bat right now. That being said, Clarke isn't worth rostering in most fantasy formats until he starts hitting better. In his absence, JJ Bleday will cover center field and bat seventh versus right-hander Ryan Gusto.
From RotoBaller
Baltimore Orioles corner infielder Coby Mayo is absent from the starting lineup ahead of Monday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays. Mayo will head to the bench after starting in each of the last two games. He was productive in those games, going 3-for-7 with an RBI and a walk. Unfortunately, the O's aren't ready to commit to Mayo being a full-time player. Instead, Mayo has been playing exclusively against left-handed pitching, which is why he's sidelined on Monday. That being said, Mayo isn't going to offer much value outside of deep leagues with him only platooning. Ryan O'Hearn will cover first base and bat fifth versus right-hander Ryan Pepiot.
From RotoBaller
Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Kameron Misner is out of the starting lineup ahead of Monday's game against the Baltimore Orioles. Misner will head to the bench after starting in each of the last four games. During that span, Misner went 2-for-15 at the plate, so he could use a day off. Misner has been struggling at the plate this month and is a tough player to justify rostering right now. Josh Lowe, Christopher Morel, and Jake Mangum will cover the outfield on Monday.

Baltimore Orioles first baseman Ryan O'Hearn (ankle) is starting at first base and batting fifth for Monday's series opener against the division-rival Tampa Bay Rays and right-hander Ryan Pepiot at George M. Steinbrenner Field. O'Hearn suffered a left-ankle injury last Friday and missed the final two games of the series against the Los Angeles Angels, but he's feeling better now and is ready to go for a new week. The 31-year-old left-handed slugger has been one of the team's best bats this year and should be returned to fantasy lineups. In his six career at-bats against Pepiot, he has three hits and two RBI. O'Hearn has feasted off of righties so far in 2025, slashing .325/.404/.552 with a .956 OPS, all 10 of his home runs and 26 of his 27 RBI on the season. However, he's hit only .200 (7-for-35) with a homer and six RBI in 10 games in the month of June.

Baltimore Orioles outfielder Colton Cowser is back in the team's starting lineup for Monday's series opener against the division-rival Tampa Bay Rays and right-hander Ryan Pepiot after missing the last three games due to general soreness from crashing into the outfield wall last Thursday against the Detroit Tigers. Cowser is starting in left field and batting eighth. The 25-year-old former fifth overall pick in 2021 out of Sam Houston State has missed time this year due to injury and has appeared in only 13 games, going 9-for-48 (.188) with three home runs, three RBI and 17 strikeouts in 52 plate appearances. Cowser is a regular in Baltimore's outfield when he's healthy after hitting 24 homers in 2024, but fantasy managers are still waiting for him to get rolling in 2025. He's batting .200 in just five career at-bats versus Pepiot.

New York Yankees first baseman Paul Goldschmidt finds himself on the bench for the second straight game on Monday for the series opener in the Bronx against the visiting Los Angeles Angels. Ben Rice will start at first base and hit second against Angels right-hander Jose Soriano in the first game with slugger Giancarlo Stanton (elbows) back in the lineup as the designated hitter. Nothing is concrete, but Stanton's return from the injured list could result in Rice and Goldy serving in a platoon at first base moving forward, which would obviously be bad news for the 37-year-old veteran in what has been a bounce-back year in his first season in pinstripes. Goldschmidt is still hitting over .300 on the year, but he's gone 9-for-47 (.191) with a homer, three RBI, six runs and 14 strikeouts in 13 games in June and only has seven long balls on the season.
From RotoBaller
New York Yankees outfielder Jasson Dominguez will head to the bench for Monday's series opener versus the visiting Los Angeles Angels in the Bronx. Cody Bellinger is shifting over to left field and will hit cleanup against Angels right-hander Jose Soriano. Dominguez hasn't really lived up to his lofty expectations in his first full season in the big leagues in 2025 and is hitting .206 (7-for-34) with a double, two RBI and two steals with 10 strikeouts in his first nine games in June. Overall, he's slashing a mediocre .237/.326/.387 with a .712 OPS, six long balls, 26 RBI, 29 runs scored and nine stolen bases in 194 at-bats. The 22-year-old Dominican's .235 xBA doesn't bode well for a rebound in the second half of the season, either. Additionally, Giancarlo Stanton's return to the lineup could mean fewer at-bats for Dominguez going forward.

New York Yankees right-handed reliever Jake Cousins (elbow) is scheduled to have Tommy John surgery on Wednesday, according to manager Aaron Boone. Cousins has been out all season and will now miss the rest of the 2025 campaign and most likely at least half of 2026 as well. The 30-year-old veteran injured his right elbow back in spring training and recently had a setback, which has led to Tommy John surgery. It's a disappointing development for Cousins, who was looking good in a late-inning setup role for the Yankees late last year and into the postseason. The former 20th-round selection by the Washington Nationals in 2017 out of Pennsylvania had a career-low 2.37 ERA (4.06 FIP), a 1.05 WHIP, his first career save, 53 strikeouts and 20 walks in 38 relief innings during the regular season in his first year with the Yankees in 2024.
