  • FA Relief Pitcher #61
    Cardinals optioned RHP Jake Walsh to Triple-A Memphis.
    Walsh made three relief appearances last season for the Cardinals and will open the 2023 campaign in the upper minors as organizational relief depth.

  • CWS Third Baseman #44
    Bryan Ramos hit a two-run homer in a loss for the White Sox on Monday to the Guardians.
  • CLE Catcher #23
    Bo Naylor homered and stole two bases in a win over the White Sox on Monday.
  • CLE Relief Pitcher #48
    Emmanuel Clase struck out two in his save against the White Sox with a scoreless inning Monday.
  • CLE Starting Pitcher #54
    Joey Cantillo struck out 10 while allowing one run over seven innings to get a win in a 5-3 victory for the Guardians on Monday.
    Cantillo didn’t allow a hit until the seventh when Andrew Benintendi spoiled the fun. It was a dominant and impressive outing, even when you consider the “competition.” Cantillo was only up to give the Cleveland starters a day of rest, and he very nearly joined the history books while doing it.
  • CWS Starting Pitcher #51
    Jared Shuster gave up three runs in 2 2/3 innings to get a loss against the Guardians on Monday.
  • TB Relief Pitcher #14
    Tyler Alexander allowed one run in 4 1/3 innings and got a no-decision as the bulk reliever against the Phillies on Monday.
    Alexander gave up one hit, walked none and struck out one. He allowed a solo home run to Kyle Schwarber in the sixth inning, but that was it. Alexander is hard to recommend or even use in fantasy leagues. It’s difficult to predict when he’ll even pitch and if he’ll be used as a starter or a bulk reliever. He’s had some good games, but ultimately his stats aren’t good enough. Alexander is 6-4 with a 5.50 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 76 strikeouts in 93 1/3 innings this year. The 30-year-old left-hander is set to face the Guardians on the road this weekend if the Rays decide to use him again.
  • PHI Starting Pitcher #61
    Cristopher Sánchez tossed six scoreless innings and got a no-decision in the Phillies’ 2-1 victory over the Rays on Monday.
    Sanchez gave up four hits, walked one and struck out four. He was in line for the victory before Brandon Lowe’s pinch hit home run that tied the game in the top of the ninth inning. Sanchez has allowed three runs or less in six of his last seven starts and has a a 3.25 ERA and 37 strikeouts in 44 1/3 innings in that time. He’s 10-9 with a 3.33 ERA and 1.24 WHIP with 135 strikeouts in 165 innings on the year. The 27-year-old left-hander is set to face the Mets at home this weekend.
  • PIT Relief Pitcher #50
    The Pirates will have Carmen Mlodzinski start against the Marlins on Tuesday.
    The Pirates could have Bailey Falter go on normal rest, but they’re opting for a bullpen day, as they try to space out the starts of their young stars. Mlodzinski threw 12 pitches on Sunday and hasn’t thrown more than 2 1/3 innings in any outing this year, so this is a bullpen day for Pittsburgh.
  • MIN Third Baseman #12
    Kyle Farmer homered in a loss Monday to the Angels.
  • LAA Right Fielder #3
    Taylor Ward went 3-for-4 with a run scored in a win Monday over the Twins.
