Injury Roundup

Multiple teams dealt with injury setbacks across the league Sunday. Blue Jays right-hander Dylan Cease will be placed on the 15-day injured list after suffering a left hamstring strain, manager John Schneider confirmed. Meanwhile, Rockies left-hander Jose Quintana left his start against the Diamondbacks in the second inning Sunday with left elbow discomfort, a concerning development for the veteran who has already logged significant innings this season. The Red Sox received more encouraging news on ace Garrett Crochet, who is set to throw batting practice off the Fenway Park mound Tuesday as he works back from shoulder inflammation — Crochet reported feeling good following his recovery regimen.

Player Availability Updates

The Dodgers are expected to welcome back utilityman Kiké Hernández in time for his season debut Monday after he recovered from surgery on his left elbow. The veteran provides Los Angeles with valuable versatility across the diamond. However, the Tigers will be without second baseman Gleyber Torres for the foreseeable future, as he will halt his hitting activities while dealing with a left oblique strain that hasn't fully healed. Torres acknowledged he needs more time before resuming baseball activities. Over in New York, Mets star Juan Soto was absent from the lineup for the second consecutive game Monday due to illness, leaving a significant hole in the heart of New York's order.

Pitching Matters

The Angels rode an exceptional pitching performance to a sweep of the Rangers. Reid Detmers retired 24 of 25 batters while tying a career-high with 14 strikeouts across eight dominant innings, and the Angels capitalized on Justin Foscue's ninth-inning throwing error to secure a 2-1 victory. Over in Milwaukee, the Brewers made a roster decision following Saturday's loss to Los Angeles, optioning lefty Robert Gasser back to Triple-A after he blew an early lead. Manager Pat Murphy suggested Gasser may have been tipping his pitches, a mechanical issue the organization will address during his minor league assignment.
