G. Stanton - DH

NYY

Yankees placed DH Giancarlo Stanton on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to May 14, with a left quad strain.

Stanton sat out of the weekend with what was termed as quad tightness and it turns out he'll need some extended rest. It's brutal news for the Yankees, who just placed Aaron Hicks (wrist) on the injured list for what could be a lengthy absence. Stanton has hit well this season, slashing .282/.347/.534 with nine home runs and 24 RBI over 33 games. His power bat is going to be missed in a big way.

Jeff McNeil (hamstring) is expected to be placed on the injured list, per Deesha Thosar of the New York Daily News.

Michael Conforto is also expected to land on the injured list with a hamstring injury. McNeil has been dealing with leg issues in recent days and getting off his feet for a while might be the best thing for him. Thosar hears that Johneshwy Fargas will be called up from Triple-A Syracuse, but another move will be made. Jose Peraza should see most of the playing time at second base for now.

J. Odorizzi - SP

HOU

Jake Odorizzi (forearm) will begin a minor league rehab assignment Tuesday with Triple-A Sugar Land.

Odorizzi got the go-ahead after making it through a live batting practice session without incident last Wednesday. The expectation is that he'll require two starts before being activated. The veteran right-hander struggled to the tune of a 10.13 ERA through three starts before going down with a right pronator muscle strain late last month. With Odorizzi and Framber Valdez both coming back soon, the Astros will have some decisions to make about their rotation.

HOU

Framber Valdez (finger) will make his first minor league rehab start Monday with Triple-A Sugar Land.

Valdez was supposed to pitch on Sunday, but the game was rained out, so he'll pitch in one of the doubleheader games on Monday. The southpaw is working his way back from a fractured ring finger on his left hand and will require multiple outings to get stretched, but he should be ready to join the Astros' rotation in early June if all goes well.

D. García - SP

NYY

Yankees RHP prospect Deivi Garcia struck out nine while allowing just an unearned run over five innings on Sunday for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

Garcia was awful in his first Triple-A start of the year with seven walks in 3 1/3 innings for the RailRiders. He’s been anything but since that, and has allowed just that unearned run while striking out 17 against two walks over his last 10 frames. Garcia has some of the best stuff in Triple-A right now, and based on what he’s shown in his last two outings -- and also a decent start against Baltimore earlier in the year and some success in 2020 -- he’s ready to pitch at the highest level.

J. Rodríguez - CF

SEA

Mariners OF prospect Julio Rodriguez went 3-for-5 with a homer and three runs scored on Sunday for High-A Everett.

The homer gives Rodriguez a roundtripper in four straight games, and five in his 12 contests with the AquaSox. He also has a ten-game hitting streak, and he’s slashing .353/.441/.784 in 59 plate appearances at the High-A level. Simply put, Rodriguez is too good for this level, but the Mariners want to keep their top prospects together, and it may not actually matter where he’s hitting right now. With Jarred Kelenic now in the majors, the Mariners still have the best outfield prospects in the minors, it’s just a different player. Rodriguez is as must-have in keeper formats as it gets.

Michael Conforto (hamstring) is likely headed for the 10-day injured list.

Jon Morosi of MLB.com reports that the Mets have yet to make a formal decision. Conforto is headed for an MRI on Monday in Atlanta, after which the move should become official. The Mets' right fielder pulled up lame running to first base during Sunday's game with what was described as a "pull" of his hamstring. It's likely we'll see Khalil Lee make his way back to the major league roster, so there could be some appeal there in deeper fantasy leagues. Still, it's a tough break for New York.

Stephen Strasburg (shoulder) tossed 4 1/3 scoreless innings Sunday in a rehab start with Triple-A Rochester.

Strasburg allowed two hits and walked two while striking out six batters. He got stretched out to 75 pitches, though only 41 of them were strikes. The Nationals will see how he feels on Monday before deciding on the next step. The veteran right-hander went down about a month ago with right shoulder inflammation. Once Strasburg returns, Erick Fedde will likely be bullpen-bound despite a strong showing Sunday against the Diamondbacks.

Mark Melancon nailed down his MLB-leading 14th save with a scoreless ninth inning against the Cardinals on Saturday.

Melancon allowed a leadoff single to Harrison Bader, but got Lane Thomas to ground into a fielder's choice before retiring the next two batters to finish off a three-game sweep of the Cardinals. The veteran reliever wasn't considered a lock for the closer role upon signing with the Padres, but he's been nothing short of fantastic so far, posting a 0.96 ERA and 15/3 K/BB ratio over 18 2/3 innings.

Making his first career relief appearance, Dinelson Lamet allowed one run over two innings Sunday against the Cardinals.

Lamet tossed a 1-2-3 fifth inning before getting into some trouble in the sixth, though he was bailed out by a brilliant double-play. One run scored on the play, but it prevented a much bigger inning. He struck out two and walked two while getting six swinging strikes in a season-high 37 pitches. He topped out at 97.9 mph, the hardest pitch he's thrown this year. He definitely had more juice with his pitches out of the bullpen, so it will be interesting to see where the Padres go from here.

Ryan Weathers allowed two runs over four innings in his start against the Cardinals on Sunday.

He gave up four hits and didn't walk a batter. Weathers served up a two-run homer to Nolan Arenado in a 27-pitch first inning, but was able to hold the Cardinals off the board for the next three innings before Dinelson Lamet took over. Oddly, Weathers didn't strike out any of the 17 batters he faced and collected just four swinging strikes in his 69 pitches. Still, he managed to keep the Padres in the game while also notching his first career hit. Weathers now holds a 1.37 ERA and 20/7 K/BB ratio through 26 1/3 innings this season. He's exceeded four innings just once so far this season, which caps his upside in fantasy leagues.

Trent Grisham went 1-for-5 with an RBI double and a stolen base in Sunday's win over the Cardinals.

Grisham provided an important insurance run in the sixth. The 24-year-old has hit safely in seven straight games as his strong start to the season continues. After getting a late start due to a hamstring injury, he's slashing .301/.381/.488 with five home runs, 13 RBI, seven steals, and 19 runs scored over 32 games. There's probably some good BABIP fortune going on here, but he's reinforcing his status as a top-20 fantasy outfielder.

He gave the Cardinals an early lead by taking Ryan Weathers deep in the first inning, but the Padres came storming back in the fourth to pull away. Arenado has now homered in three straight games, so he's sitting on nine homers and 28 RBI to go along with a .300/.353/.563 batting line. So much for a drop-off leaving Coors Field behind.

Eddie Rosario went 0-for-3 with a run scored and a walk against the Mariners on Sunday.

Rosario drew a walk to lead off the sixth inning against Rafael Montero and came around to score on a groundout by Josh Naylor. He was hitless in his other three plate appearances. The 29-year-old outfielder is battling through a slump at the plate as he's just 2-for-30 over his last eight games. Rosario has been disappointing through the early going with a .206 batting average and three home runs over 145 plate appearances. On the bright side, he is running with five stolen bases on the year. Rosario should continue to play everyday and hit in the middle of the order. Fantasy managers should exercise patience as he's capable of turning things around quickly.
