• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Detroit Tigers', 'player': 'Bailey Horn', 'position': 'RP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-07-18', 'note': 'Horn (elbow) will undergo season-ending Tommy John surgery, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.', 'detail': "Horn has been on the injured list all season while working his way back from an arthroscopic procedure he underwent on his left elbow during the offseason. He was cleared to begin throwing in late May, but progress in his recovery has been slow, so he'll go under the knife once again to address the issue. He'll officially miss the entire 2026 campaign as a result, and the timing of his surgery makes it likely that he'll miss most, if not all, of the 2027 season as well.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/4414247'}
• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Detroit Tigers', 'player': 'Brant Hurter', 'position': 'RP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-08-26', 'note': 'Hurter (back) will resume his rehab assignment with Triple-A Toledo on Wednesday, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.', 'detail': 'Hurter was pulled off his initial rehab assignment to work on mechanics after he allowed 11 runs (10 earned) in his first 3.2 innings. The lefty has been sidelined since late May with lumbar spine inflammation, and a timeline for his activation will depend on how he looks and feels in the coming days with Toledo.', 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/5197093'}
• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Detroit Tigers', 'player': 'Burch Smith', 'position': 'RP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-07-24', 'note': 'Smith is being evaluated after exiting a rehab appearance with Triple-A Toledo on Thursday with right shoulder/lat discomfort, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports.', 'detail': "Smith was making his second rehab appearance after missing nearly two months with right shoulder inflammation, so it's a worrisome setback. More should be known about the reliever's condition in the coming days.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/33083'}
• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Detroit Tigers', 'player': 'Justin Verlander', 'position': 'SP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-08-05', 'note': 'Verlander (hamstring/hip) threw off the front of the bullpen mound Wednesday, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.', 'detail': "Verlander has yet to log a true bullpen session since suffering a setback during his last mound session June 17, but Wednesday's round of throwing still marks progress from playing catch. It's unclear how far he is from getting back to throwing traditional bullpen sessions, but he'll likely have to do so within the next couple of weeks to have a chance to build up his workload and make a few more starts in what will be his final season in Major League Baseball.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/6341'}
• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Detroit Tigers', 'player': 'Parker Meadows', 'position': 'CF', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-06-25', 'note': 'Tigers manager A.J. Hinch said Tuesday that Meadows (forearm) has yet to resume hitting and is without a timeline to return from the 60-day injured list, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.', 'detail': "Meadows has been on the shelf since undergoing surgery April 13 to repair a radial fracture in his left forearm, which he sustained in a collision in the outfield. The 26-year-old appears to have made a full recovery from the concussion and mouth laceration that he also suffered in the collision, but due to the complex nature of his surgery, he remains limited to doing daily rehab while he waits for the fracture to heal. While Hinch indicated that Meadows hasn't hit any setbacks in the recovery process, a target date for the outfielder's return is unlikely to come into focus until he's able to take part in a full range of baseball activities.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/41223'}
• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Detroit Tigers', 'player': 'Reese Olson', 'position': 'SP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-05-08', 'note': 'The Tigers placed Olson on the 60-day injured list Tuesday after he underwent a right shoulder labral repair Feb. 2 that will result in him missing the 2026 season.', 'detail': "It was feared that Olson would not be ready for Opening Day, but it turned out to be worse than that. Near the end of the 2025 season, there was a hope that he could return for the postseason after hitting the injured list in July, but that did not come to fruition either. Prior to the Tigers announcing Olson's surgery, they signed Framber Valdez on Feb. 4 and Justin Verlander earlier Tuesday. Troy Melton is also an option to find time in the rotation with both Olson and Jackson Jobe (elbow) out.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/4734319'}

He'll now undergo arthroscopic surgery and miss the entirety of the 2026 campaign. Sweeney has a career .202/.261/.313 slash line with 10 home runs, 49 RBI, 47 runs scored, five stolen bases and a 33:124 BB:K across 445 plate appearances over the previous two seasons.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/4414687'}

Hinch said Tuesday that Perez's vision is not yet back to normal after initially suffering an orbital fracture June 16 when an exercise band snapped back and hit Perez in the eye. During his rehab assignment, Perez went 0-for-12 at the plate with a sacrifice fly and six strikeouts. It appears he's looking at an extended absence.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/41586'}

He was transferred to the 60-day IL on Aug. 4, but he could be back on the Guardians' major-league roster right before the end of the regular season in mid-to-late September.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/33499'}

The righty reliever will be eligible for activation Sept. 19, but it's unclear whether he will be ready to go on that date.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/4917897'}

However, the Guardians are labeling his removal as precautionary, so it would seem Martinez escaped with a relatively minor injury.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/42497'}

However, when Vogt was asked if it\'s an IL situation for DeLauter, the skipper said, "We don\'t think so. We\'re very much day-to-day right now." The Guardians will wait and see how DeLauter feels Saturday before determining his availability for the rest of the series.', 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/4619649'}
