Stay up-to-date with all the latest news on injured players across Major League Baseball.

Bobby Witt Jr., Carlos Estévez, Kyle Wright and Alec Marsh, Royals

Witt, who left Wednesday's game after taking a 95.9 mph fastball off the left hand/wrist area, sustained no fractures and will continue being evaluated for a left forearm contusion.

Estévez is dealing with left lower back tightness that has delayed his first Cactus League appearance. However, he threw live batting practice on March 11 and is scheduled to make his Cactus League debut on March 14.

Wright, who missed the entire 2024 season rehabbing from right shoulder surgery, suffered a right hamstring strain during a bullpen session on Feb. 18. But he is back to throwing bullpen sessions and was expected to throw another on March 13.

Marsh (right shoulder soreness) faced hitters for the first time this spring on March 9.

Jeff McNeil, Sean Manaea, Francisco Alvarez and Brandon Nimmo, Mets

McNeil has a low-grade right oblique strain and will miss Opening Day.

Manaea (right oblique strain) has started a throwing progression.

Manager Carlos Mendoza announced on March 9 that Alvarez will undergo surgery for a fractured hamate bone in his left hand and will miss 6-8 weeks.

Nimmo (right knee soreness) returned to the Mets' lineup on March 13 for the first time since Feb. 28.

Gerrit Cole and Giancarlo Stanton, Yankees

Cole was scheduled to undergo Tommy John surgery on March 11. The typical recovery time following the procedure is 12-18 months, meaning Cole will not pitch in 2025.

Stanton said on March 8 that his tendon injuries are considered “severe in both elbows," and he is unsure when he can resume baseball activities. Stanton received a third round of PRP injections on March 10.

Gunnar Henderson, Grayson Rodriguez, Andrew Kittredge and Jorge Mateo, Orioles

Henderson (mild right intercostal strain) hit in the batting cage for a second straight day and took ground balls on March 12. A return by Opening Day is still possible.

Manager Brandon Hyde said on March 9 that Rodriguez (right elbow inflammation) received a cortisone shot and has been shut down for 7-10 days. Rodriguez and Kittredge (left knee surgery) will begin the season on the injured list. Kittredge is expected to miss multiple months.

Mateo (left UCL reconstruction surgery) took batting practice on the field for the first time on March 11 and is “progressing extremely well.” Mateo did a full slate of defensive drills the day before.

Max Scherzer, Erik Swanson and Daulton Varsho, Blue Jays

Scherzer will be bumped back from his scheduled March 13 start due to right thumb soreness.

Swanson was scheduled to meet with Dr. Keith Meister in person on March 13. This comes after Swanson experienced right elbow discomfort after a recent bullpen session, which came on the back of right forearm discomfort earlier in camp.

Varsho (right shoulder surgery) is playing in spring games as the DH and did some throwing with manager John Schneider at about 100 feet prior to Toronto's game on March 9.

Rafael Devers, Trevor Story, Brayan Bello, Lucas Giolito, Masataka Yoshida and Wilyer Abreu, Red Sox

Devers (right shoulder) was scheduled to play in his first game of Spring Training on March 5, but the slugger told Cora he could use a little more time on the backfields to regain his timing. Per Cora, Devers will make his 2025 Grapefruit League debut on March 15.

Story is dealing with "mild upper back" tightness and hasn't been in the lineup since March 9.

Bello is trending in the right direction after a bout of right shoulder inflammation at the start of Spring Training, but he will begin the season on the injured list, manager Alex Cora announced on March 11.

Giolito felt tightness in his left hamstring after throwing his first pitch on March 11. He was scheduled to undergo an MRI on March 12, but the initial feeling from Giolito and the training staff is that the injury is not serious.

Yoshida (right shoulder labrum tear) continues to DH in Grapefruit League games, but he is only throwing at 60 feet, placing his availability for the start of the season in question.

Abreu (GI illness) had his most recent batch of lab tests on March 10. Things are trending in the right direction, but there's no guarantee he will be ready for Opening Day.

Jurickson Profar and Spencer Steer, Braves

Profar (left wrist bone bruise) returned to Braves camp on March 12 and said he is "very, very confident" that he will be in the lineup on Opening Day.

Strider threw live batting practice on March 7 and plans to do so at least one more time before pitching in a game.

Cody Bradford and Tyler Mahle, Rangers

Bradford was scratched from his scheduled start on March 12 due to left elbow soreness. However, the MRI that he took the day before came back clean. The team will shut him down for the next four or five days to get everything cleaned up.

Mahle was scratched from his scheduled start on March 11 as a precautionary move with what GM Ross Fenstermaker called “a bit of forearm soreness.” Mahle’s MRI came back clean, and the plan is for him to pitch sometime in the next few days.

Christian Walker, Lance McCullers Jr. and Luis Garcia, Astros

An MRI on Walker's sore left oblique showed no strain. The first baseman has resumed running and fielding drills but has yet to swing a bat.

McCullers (right flexor tendon surgery) threw 30 pitches in his third live batting practice session on March 12. His next outing will come in a Grapefruit League game. It will represent McCullers' first game action in about 28 months.

Garcia (Tommy John surgery) has thrown in the bullpen multiple times in camp but has yet to face hitters.

Clayton Kershaw, Shohei Ohtani, Michael Kopech, Tony Gonsolin and Michael Grove, Dodgers

Kershaw took a big step in his recovery from procedures on his left knee and his left foot when he threw his first bullpen session since the surgeries on March 7. He will begin the regular season on the 60-day injured list, but he's hopeful he'll be ready to return to the mound for the Dodgers when the 60 days are up.

The Dodgers are slowing the pitching side of Ohtani's (right elbow surgery, left shoulder surgery) rehab as he ramps up as a designated hitter for the regular season, manager Dave Roberts said on March 6. It is unclear how this development will affect Ohtani's timeline to return to a big league mound.

Kopech, who could open the season on the injured list due to right forearm tightness, has resumed throwing bullpen sessions.

Gonsolin will begin the season on the injured list after he injured his back while lifting weights.

Grove underwent right shoulder labrum surgery and is expected to miss the entire 2025 season, Roberts said on March 9.

George Kirby, Mariners

Kirby is dealing with right shoulder inflammation and has been shut down from throwing, according to general manager Justin Hollander, who added that the right-hander will be placed on the injured list. The move is precautionary, and MRI results showed no structural damage. Hollander said that Kirby will likely miss the first two weeks of the regular season.

Spencer Steer, Rhett Lowder and Andrew Abbott, Reds

Steer took some swings in the batting cage on March 12. It was the first time Steer had done that since getting a cortisone shot in his bothersome right shoulder on March 1.

Lowder, who experienced right elbow discomfort in January, has been throwing on flat ground for a few weeks since getting cleared by the medical staff. But he has yet to throw off a mound.

Abbott (left shoulder strain) was expected to make his Cactus League debut on March 12, but he instead threw 31 pitches over two scoreless innings in a Triple-A game that day.

Brandon Woodruff and Blake Perkins, Brewers

Woodruff pitched in a game for the first time in nearly 18 months on March 11, a massive step in his recovery from right shoulder surgery.

Perkins (right shin fracture) could be cleared for baseball activity when he meets with a doctor on March 14.

Nico Hoerner and Javier Assad, Cubs

Hoerner (right flexor tendon surgery) will begin playing in Minor League games this week in Arizona.

Assad (mild left oblique strain) is progressing in his throwing program and threw a light "touch and feel" bullpen session on March 8. He will miss the start of the season.

Jordan Walker, Cardinals

Walker (left knee inflammation) jammed his knee on March 4 when he stepped on a sprinkler head while tracking a fly ball. An MRI exam showed no structural damage. As of March 7, he is feeling significantly less pain and is healing faster than expected.

Shane Bieber, Guardians

Bieber (Tommy John surgery) threw his sixth bullpen session on March 11 and has progressed to throwing five days a week in addition to extending his throwing distance to 135 feet.

Parker Meadows, Tigers

Dealing with a nerve issue in his upper right arm, Meadows is doing modified light baseball activities, including hitting, defensive work and conditioning, but no throwing.

Luis Rengifo, Angels

Rengifo (hamstring tightness) has been sidelined since the start of March and may not have enough time to get ready for Opening Day.
