Jose Altuve, Justin Verlander, Jake Bloss and Victor Caratini, Astros

Altuve exited Friday's win over the Twins in the eighth inning after being hit on the left hand by a 94.3 mph sinker from the Twins' Josh Winder. X-rays came back negative and Altuve was diagnosed with a left hand contusion. He was not in Saturday's starting lineup. More >

Verlander (neck stiffness) is playing catch from 60 feet every other day, according to manager Joe Espada. There is still no timetable for his return.

Bloss (right shoulder discomfort) will begin a rehab stint with Triple-A Sugar Land on Saturday.

Caratini (left hip flexor strain) has resumed hitting in the cage, running and throwing and is set to rejoin the club this weekend to continue his rehab. More >

Ketel Marte, D-backs

Marte was removed for a pinch-hitter in the ninth inning of Friday's game due to back tightness. He is considered day to day.

Kyle Schwarber, Bryce Harper and J.T. Realmuto, Phillies

Schwarber (left groin strain) is scheduled to run the bases before Saturday's game against the Braves. He is likely to be activated as soon as he is eligible on Tuesday.

Harper (left hamstring strain) is running at about 75-80% intensity. Manager Rob Thomson said there's a "good chance" that Harper will return before the All-Star break.

Realmuto (right knee surgery) ran on Friday at Truist Park, trying to get to 75-80% intensity, according to Thomson. Realmuto’s return is most likely to come after the All-Star break. More >

Gleyber Torres, Yankees

Torres was removed from Friday's game against the Red Sox with right groin tightness after running out an infield single in the fourth inning. Torres, who has been playing through a groin issue for several weeks, was not in Saturday's lineup. More >

Kyle Hendricks, Yency Almonte Pete Crow-Armstrong, Mark Leiter Jr. and Javier Assad, Cubs

Hendricks logged two innings in Saturday's start against the Angels before bowing out due to what the team announced as tightness in his lower back.

After seeking a second opinion on his shoulder injury, Almonte has opted to undergo surgery on his right shoulder and is done for the season.

Crow-Armstrong, who has a laceration on his left thumb sustained while stealing a base on Wednesday, is still experiencing some swelling and is day to day. He was out of the starting lineup for the third straight game Saturday.

Leiter (right forearm strain) faced hitters in a live BP session on Saturday, and the plan is to activate the reliever during the team's road trip, which begins Tuesday.

Assad (right forearm extensor strain) threw off a bullpen mound on Friday. More >

Xander Bogaerts, Padres

Bogaerts (left shoulder fracture) began a rehab assignment with Triple-A El Paso on Thursday. It remains unclear whether he might be activated from the IL before the All-Star break. More >

Mike Trout and Luis Rengifo, Angels

Manager Ron Washington said on Friday that Trout (torn meniscus in left knee) has resumed running on a treadmill and hitting off a tee on the field. Trout is hopeful to return by late July.

Rengifo was placed on the 10-day IL Friday with right wrist inflammation. Imaging on his wrist revealed no further concerns. More >

Royce Lewis, Twins

Lewis was placed on the 10-day IL Wednesday with a left adductor strain but said Thursday that he was optimistic that the injury would not keep him sidelined for long. More >

Jack Flaherty, Tigers

Flaherty rejoined the Tigers on Saturday in Cincinnati as he continues to recover from a back issue that has resulted in two injections. If things continue to go well, he will start Thursday's game against the Guardians at Comerica Park. More >

Josh Smith and Dane Dunning, Rangers

Smith was out of the lineup for the second consecutive game Saturday due to glute soreness.

Dunning was placed on the injured list on Friday with right shoulder tightness. More >

Chris Martin, Red Sox

Martin was placed on the injured list on Friday with right elbow inflammation, retroactive to Thursday. More >

Germán Márquez, Rockies

Márquez (Tommy John surgery) threw 70 pitches over 3 2/3 innings in his next-to-last planned injury rehab start on Thursday. More >

Tyler Freeman, Guardians

Freeman has been out of the lineup since Tuesday with right wrist discomfort. The Guardians expect him to be back in the lineup in the coming days. More >

Clayton Kershaw and Jason Heyward, Dodgers

Kershaw (left shoulder surgery) threw about 30 pitches in a bullpen session on Thursday, a positive step in the right direction for the left-hander. If everything checks out well afterward, the next step for Kershaw would be a simulated game likely at Dodger Stadium. After that, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said he believes Kershaw would need about two or three rehab starts before he’s ready to return to the rotation.

Heyward left early from Thursday's game with what the team called left knee pain and was placed on the injured list on Friday with a left knee bone bruise. More >

Edward Cabrera, Marlins

Although manager Skip Schumaker didn't technically say on Saturday that Cabrera (right shoulder impingement) would be activated for Sunday's game against the White Sox, he did grin and say Cabrera would "start this weekend." More >

Yimi García, Blue Jays

García (right elbow ulnar neuritis) threw a 21-pitch bullpen session Wednesday and came out of it feeling strong, so the next step is a rehab game in Triple-A Buffalo, which is scheduled for Saturday. More >

Blake Snell, Giants

Snell (left groin strain) fired five no-hit innings in his third rehab start for Triple-A Sacramento on Wednesday, putting him on track to return to the Giants' rotation when they return home to face the Blue Jays on Tuesday. More >

David Bednar and Jared Jones, Pirates

Bednar (left oblique strain) threw a live batting practice Saturday, facing five batters and throwing 21 pitches. It was Bednar's first live session since landing on the injured list on June 23.

A day after being placed on the injured list with a lat strain, Pirates manager Derek Shelton said on Friday that Jones was diagnosed with a Grade 2 lat strain and will not throw for about two weeks. More >

Matt McLain, TJ Friedl, Nick Lodolo and Luke Maile, Reds

Manager David Bell said Saturday that McLain, who has been out all season after undergoing left shoulder surgery in March, has been cleared for baseball activities.

Friedl (right hamstring strain) has been playing catch and swinging off a tee as of late and is scheduled to have another MRI on Monday.

Lodolo (left finger blister) threw a side session before Saturday's game against the Tigers. If all goes well, he is expected to return Tuesday and start against Colorado.

Maile was placed on the injured list on Friday with a herniated disc. More >

Lars Nootbaar, Tommy Edman and Iván Herrera, Cardinals

Nootbaar (oblique strain) played all nine innings as the DH in a rehab game with Double-A Springfield on Wednesday. He will likely need six to eight games to get his timing back at the plate and to work his body back into game shape.

Edman (right wrist surgery) will begin a rehab assignment with Double-A Springfield on Tuesday.

Herrera (lower back tightness) began a rehab assignment with Triple-A Memphis on Thursday. More >
