Stay up-to-date with all the latest news on injured players across Major League Baseball.
Joe Musgrove, Bryan Hoeing and Sung-Mun Song, Padres
Musgrove is expected to begin the regular season on the injured list, according to Padres manager Craig Stammen. The Padres have slow-played Musgrove this spring as he nears his return from Tommy John surgery.
Hoeing will undergo surgery to repair the flexor tendon in his right elbow and will miss the 2026 season.
Stammen said March 12 that Song (right oblique tightness) was doing defensive drills and baserunning and that he was “probably getting close” to swinging the bat again.
Seiya Suzuki and Justin Steele, Cubs
Suzuki left Team Japan's quarterfinal matchup against Venezuela with right knee discomfort following a first-inning stolen-base attempt. After being examined by a Cubs doctor on March 16, Suzuki was en route to have an MRI exam on his knee to determine the extent of the injury.
Steele (left elbow surgery) threw 19 pitches in a live batting practice session on March 13.
José Ramírez, Guardians
Ramírez left the Guardians' March 15 game after jamming his left shoulder sliding into third base. Manager Stephen Vogt said postgame that Ramírez has some inflammation but is considered day to day.
Zach Neto and Robert Stephenson, Angels
Neto suffered a minor left wrist sprain sliding into home plate on March 14. He hit off a tee and took batting practice March 16 and expects to be able to return to the lineup as soon as March 17.
Stephenson (right elbow inflammation) has suffered a minor setback and will be evaluated by Dr. Keith Meister in Texas during the week of March 16.
Francisco Lindor, Mets
Lindor (stress reaction in left hamate bone) made his Grapefruit League debut on March 15 and remains on track for Opening Day.
Gavin Stone, Tommy Edman and Brusdar Graterol, Dodgers
Imaging revealed inflammation but no structural damage in Stone's right shoulder. He is pain free and could begin a throwing program later in the week of March 16.
Edman (right ankle surgery) is taking on-field batting practice and continuing to ramp up his running progression as of March 16.
Graterol (recovery right shoulder surgery) is ramping up to greater distances in his catch play. His velocity is down from where it is expected to be, so the Dodgers are slow-playing him.
Zack Wheeler and Orion Kerkering, Phillies
Wheeler (thoracic outlet decompression surgery) threw his first live batting practice session on March 14 and is likely to progress to a two-inning simulated game on March 17.
Kerkering (Grade 1 right hamstring strain) expects to get into a Grapefruit League game on March 17 and hopes to make three appearances before camp breaks. Opening Day remains a possibility.
Corbin Burnes, Gabriel Moreno and Pavin Smith, D-backs
Burnes (Tommy John surgery) threw his first short-box bullpen session March 13 and his second March 16.
Moreno was scratched on March 13 due to ongoing right forearm tightness. An MRI revealed no structural damage.
Smith was also scratched on March 13 due to left forearm tightness. The issue is not believed to be serious.
Carlos Rodón, Yankees
Rodón threw 30 pitches in live batting practice on March 14 and could have time to make one Grapefruit League appearance.
Jackson Holliday and Jordan Westburg, Orioles
Holliday (right hamate bone fracture) aims to play in Triple-A Norfolk's opener on March 27.
Westburg (partial UCL tear in right elbow) has been running, fielding ground balls and swinging a bat with his left hand as of March 16.
José Berríos, Blue Jays
Berríos will travel to meet with Dr. Keith Meister on March 17, the next step after recent MRIs showed a new type of inflammation in his right elbow.
Josh Hader, Astros
Hader (left biceps tendinitis) is scheduled to throw his third bullpen session on March 17.
Austin Martin and Trevor Larnach, Twins
Martin was removed from Minnesota's game against the Pirates on March 16 due to a concussion, a team official said. He will be held out of all baseball activities for at least two days.
Larnach (left side soreness) participated in some activities March 16 and reported that symptoms had improved. He is expected to go through a full workout March 19 following the team’s off day and is targeted to return to game action March 20.
Marcelo Mayer and Romy Gonzalez, Red Sox
Mayer was a late scratch on March 15 due to left knee soreness. He is expected back in the lineup on March 17.
Gonzalez was placed on the 60-day injured list March 12, meaning he will miss at least the first two months of the season. The Red Sox announced Gonzalez underwent an arthroscopic debridement procedure on his left shoulder.
Jonathan India, Royals
India left the Royals' March 13 game with right groin tightness. He felt fine the next day but will be held out of the lineup until March 17 as a precaution.
Hayden Birdsong, Giants
Birdsong has a Grade 2 right forearm strain and sprained right UCL and is currently his weighing treatment options.

Jung (adductor strain) played in a Minor League game on March 15.
