Stay up-to-date with all the latest news on injured players across Major League Baseball.
Jeremy Peña and Josh Hader, Astros
Peña suffered a fracture in the tip of his right ring finger playing for the Dominican Republic in a March 4 exhibition game against the Tigers. He will be re-evaluated in two weeks and will stay with the Astros while he recovers, meaning he will miss the World Baseball Classic.
After reporting biceps soreness during a bullpen session in early February, Hader was close to throwing his first bullpen session as of March 3.
Hunter Greene, Reds
Greene (right elbow stiffness) was scheduled to undergo an MRI on March 6 and will not throw until at least March 10.
Corbin Carroll and Merrill Kelly, D-backs
Carroll, who took three at-bats in a live batting practice situation March 6, appears on track to be ready for Opening Day.
Kelly (intercostal nerve irritation) threw a 26-pitch bullpen session on March 5 and felt no discomfort March 6.
Francisco Lindor and Nolan McLean, Mets
Lindor played catch on March 3 for the first time since undergoing surgery to repair a stress reaction in his left hamate bone last month, a significant event as he works to be ready for the start of the season.
McLean (vertigo-like symptoms) threw four innings in a Minor League scrimmage on March 4, felt better March 5 and was scheduled to report to Team USA on March 6 for the World Baseball Classic.
Jackson Chourio, Brandon Woodruff and Quinn Priester, Brewers
Chourio was held out of Team Venezuela's World Baseball Classic opener March 6 with a bruised left hand, but Brewers officials have “no concern” about his long-term availability, a source said. He was struck on that hand by a pitch during Venezuela's March 4 exhibition game.
Woodruff (right lat strain) threw live batting practice Feb. 23 and March 1 and is slated for his Cactus League debut March 7. He's healthy, manager Pat Murphy said, but Woodruff may not be ready by Opening Day.
The Brewers are considering sending Priester (right wrist soreness) to a specialist for more information about the source of his lingering discomfort, Murphy said. As of March 5, Priester had not thrown off a mound in more than a week.
Kyle Stowers and Adam Mazur, Marlins
Stowers (right hamstring strain) began a running progression March 5 and faced live pitching March 6. There is no set date for his return to outfield work.
Mazur will visit Dr. Keith Meister in Dallas during the week of March 9 after experiencing right elbow discomfort during his last Grapefruit League outing on March 2.
Cam Schlittler and Oswaldo Cabrera, Yankees
Schlittler (left lat/midsection discomfort) tossed a bullpen session on March 4 in preparation for his March 6 start against the Rays.
Cabrera (left ankle surgery) was in the lineup at shortstop for the Yankees' March 6 game.
Hunter Gaddis and Andrew Walters, Guardians
Gaddis began weighted ball work on March 5. He experienced mild right forearm tightness after his Feb. 27 spring debut, but imaging came back clean, according to manager Stephen Vogt.
Walters (right lat surgery) is throwing bullpen sessions and throwing from 90-120 feet on flat ground. He is expected to progress to throwing live batting practice in the second half of March and will miss the start of the season.
Rafael Devers, Giants
Devers was scratched from the Giants' lineup against the Dodgers on Feb. 27 due to left hamstring tightness. As of March 4, he had been progressing in baseball activities.
Javier Báez, Dillon Dingler, Jackson Jobe, Beau Brieske, Sawyer Gipson-Long and Josue Briceño, Tigers
Báez (lower back tightness) did full activities March 6.
Dingler (right elbow arthroscopy) is playing in games at designated hitter. He is scheduled to throw to bases again March 7.
Jobe (Tommy John surgery) played catch out to 105 feet three times during the week of March 2.
Brieske (right rib cage tightness) and Gipson-Long (left oblique strain) are both scheduled to throw bullpen sessions March 7.
Briceño, MLB Pipeline's No. 40 overall prospect, expects to miss “a few months” after undergoing surgery March 4 to repair the extensor carpi ulnaris subsheath in his right wrist.
Josh Lowe and Robert Stephenson, Angels
Lowe (left oblique discomfort) believes he'll be ready for Opening Day. He's been able to run without any issues but hadn't started any rotational movements as of March 5.
Stephenson (right elbow inflammation) faced hitters for the first time on March 6 and looked sharp, hitting 95 mph with his fastball and getting several swings and misses with his slider and splitter. He believes he remains on track for Opening Day.
Gavin Stone and Blake Snell, Dodgers
Stone experienced discomfort in his surgically repaired right shoulder last week after tossing a scoreless inning in his Cactus League debut and later throwing a bullpen session. Imaging on his shoulder revealed inflammation, but no structural damage, manager Dave Roberts said on March 3. Stone will be shut down from throwing for at least a couple weeks, after which he'll be re-evaluated.
Snell, who slow-played his offseason throwing program due to lingering left shoulder discomfort, has only played catch out to about 90 feet over the first two weeks of camp. His chances of being ready for Opening Day are "probably zero," Roberts said Feb. 28.
Sung-Mun Song, Griffin Canning and Bryan Hoeing, Padres
Song exited the Padres’ March 5 Cactus League game with tightness in his right oblique -- the same oblique he’d injured during the offseason. Manager Craig Stammen called his exit "precautionary."
Canning (left Achilles tear) threw a high-intensity bullpen session March 3. His next step could be facing hitters, although he hasn't yet been cleared for fielding drills.
Hoeing (right elbow discomfort) received a second opinion March 2 and, according to Stammen, was still weighing his next step.
Andrew Kittredge, Jackson Holliday and Félix Bautista, Orioles
Kittredge has been dealing with right shoulder inflammation and has a "low probability" of being ready for Opening Day, manager Craig Albernaz said on March 4.
On March 5, Holliday (right hamate bone fracture) was scheduled to swing a bat using both hands for the first time since undergoing surgery Feb. 12.
Bautista (right shoulder surgery) threw off flat ground for the first time on March 3. If Bautista pitches this year, it is unlikely to be before September.
Cedric Mullins and Gavin Lux, Rays
Mullins was scratched from the Rays' March 4 starting lineup after tweaking his back during a pregame workout. He was receiving treatment and improving as of March 5 but is "probably not gonna play for a little bit," manager Kevin Cash said.
Lux (overall soreness) took 25-30 swings in the batting cage on March 3 and has had "three really good days" since then, Cash said March 5. His status for Opening Day is not in question.
Joe Ryan, Twins
Ryan (back inflammation) will not pitch during pool play of the World Baseball Classic but remains eligible and hopeful to pitch if Team USA advances to the knockout stage. He was expected to throw live batting practice on March 4 and will likely make his Spring Training debut March 9.
Zack Wheeler, Orion Kerkering and Aidan Miller, Phillies
Wheeler (right upper extremity blood clot) threw his third bullpen session on March 4.
Kerkering (Grade 1 right hamstring strain) threw his second bullpen session on March 4.
Miller, MLB Pipeline's No. 23 overall prospect, is still sidelined by a recurring back issue. It’s unclear if he will play in any Grapefruit League games or be ready for Triple-A Lehigh Valley’s season opener on March 27.
Brenton Doyle, Rockies
Doyle (left wrist sprain) has checked out healthy in recent days, and manager Warren Schaeffer decided to return him to the lineup on March 7.
Drew Thorpe, White Sox
Thorpe threw a 20-pitch bullpen session March 3, the first time the right-hander threw off the mound in his recovery from April 2025 Tommy John surgery.
Bryce Miller, Mariners
Miller is dealing with left oblique inflammation and was sidelined from throwing through the weekend of Feb. 28-March 1. He received a platelet-rich plasma shot on Feb. 27 after undergoing imaging that revealed the issue, which he experienced during the first inning of his Feb. 26 Cactus League start. General manager Justin Hollander said Miller will be re-evaluated March 7.
