  • COL Starting Pitcher #18
    Rockies activated RHP Ryan Feltner from the 15-day injured list.
    Feltner, who gave up five runs — three earned — over 2 2/3 innings in his lone rehab start, will make his return to the rotation against the Marlins tonight. He missed three turns due to a shoulder strain.
  • HOU Left Fielder #30
    Kyle Tucker is playing right field Friday for the first time since returning from a fractured shin.
    Yordan Alvarez, who has spent extra time in the outfield with Tucker limited, is doing the DHing tonight. The start tonight is Tucker’s fifth in the seven games since he was activated last week.
  • HOU Second Baseman #27
    Jose Altuve is back at second base on Friday after missing one game with a mild oblique injury.
    Mauricio Dubón is starting in left field tonight after filling in for Altuve at second base yesterday.
  • CIN Right Fielder #30
    Will Benson said his hand is feeling better now after he took a pitch off it while bunting Thursday.
    Benson said he originally thought he broke one of the two fingers the ball hit, but X-rays were negative. He’s considered day-to-day.
  • ARI Catcher #14
    Gabriel Moreno is likely to return next week if his adductor strain responds well to game action this weekend.
    Moreno has been out for five weeks now. If the Diamondbacks want to keep Adrian Del Castillo after Moreno returns, they could cut Luis Guillorme or Kevin Newman.
  • ARI Left Fielder #12
    Lourdes Gurriel Jr. will play five innings in a camp game in Arizona on Saturday.
    Gurriel has missed 11 days with a calf strain. Barring a setback, he should return next week. Pavin Smith will likely do a lot more sitting once Gurriel is activated.
  • TEX Starting Pitcher #48
    Rangers activated RHP Jacob deGrom from the 60-day injured list.
    DeGrom will make his long-awaited return from Tommy John surgery against the Mariners tonight. It’ll be his first major league appearance since Apr. 28, 2023.
  • TEX Relief Pitcher #43
    Rangers optioned RHP Owen White to Triple-A Round Rock
    White made one appearance in his latest stint with the Rangers, giving up two runs in two innings Wednesday. It lowered his season ERA from 54.00 to 24.00.
  • TEX Shortstop #5
    Rangers transferred SS Corey Seager from the 10-day to the 60-day injured list.
    The Rangers are getting their $37 million-per-year starting pitcher back from the 60-day IL today but replacing him there is the $32.5 million-per-year shortstop. Seager is out for the season after deciding to undergo sports hernia surgery.
  • CHC Relief Pitcher #66
    Julian Merryweather is beginning a rehab assignment with Triple-A Iowa on Friday.
    Merryweather last pitched on Aug. 25 before going on the IL with right knee tendinitis. He should be back next week if he looks good in Iowa.
  • LAD Starting Pitcher #35
    Gavin Stone, who went on the IL with shoulder inflammation last week, is expected to resume throwing this weekend.
    If everything goes perfectly, perhaps Stone will make one appearance during the final week of the regular season. The Dodgers, though, are really aiming for the postseason here.
