Kansas City Royals

  • {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Kansas City Royals', 'player': 'Alec Marsh', 'position': 'SP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-05-08', 'note': 'The Royals placed Marsh (shoulder) on the 60-day injured list Thursday.', 'detail': "Marsh missed all of 2025 due to shoulder problems, and after undergoing surgery in November to address the issue, he's expected to miss the entire 2026 campaign as well. His move to the 60-day IL clears space on the 40-man roster for Mitch Spence, whom the Royals acquired in a trade with the Athletics on Thursday.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/4424276'}
  • {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Kansas City Royals', 'player': 'Carlos Estevez', 'position': 'RP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-09-01', 'note': 'Estevez will undergo season-ending surgery on his right shoulder next week, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.', 'detail': "Estevez began throwing in bridge league games at the Royals' complex in Arizona last week but wasn't making much progress, so the team will shut him down for the season, and the right-hander will go under the knife to address his strained rotator cuff. The 33-year-old appeared in just one game for the Royals this year, during which he gave up six earned runs while recording just one out. Kansas City is likely to decline his $13 million club option for next season.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/34861'}
  • {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Kansas City Royals', 'player': 'Cole Ragans', 'position': 'SP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-07-02', 'note': 'Ragans underwent UCL repair surgery on his left elbow Wednesday, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.', 'detail': "It was unknown what type of procedure Ragans would need when the Royals announced last weekend that he was scheduled for surgery. Now confirmed to have undergone UCL repair surgery, the 28-year-old southpaw will officially miss the remainder of the season and is likely to remain out until midway through the 2027 campaign. He'll close the book on 2026 after putting up a 4.84 ERA and 1.42 WHIP alongside a 45:23 K:BB through 35.1 innings over eight starts.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/41054'}
  • {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Kansas City Royals', 'player': 'Connor Seabold', 'position': 'RP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-09-09', 'note': 'Seabold (lat) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Omaha on Thursday.', 'detail': "Seabold is finally ready to pitch in games again after being sidelined since late June with a right lat strain. The 30-year-old is aiming to rejoin the Royals' bullpen before the conclusion of the regular season.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/41367'}
  • {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Kansas City Royals', 'player': 'James McArthur', 'position': 'RP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-09-10', 'note': 'McArthur (elbow) allowed three runs on three hits and no walks with one strikeout across two-thirds of an inning in a rehab appearance with Double-A Northwest Arkansas on Wednesday.', 'detail': "In his first game action since 2024 due to recurring right elbow injuries, McArthur got the first two outs of the seventh inning before surrendering a solo homer, then allowed the next two batters to reach and was lifted at 17 pitches (10 strikes). It's unclear how long the right-hander will spend on a rehab assignment after such a long layoff, but he still has time to rejoin the big-league bullpen before the regular season concludes.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/3960883'}
  • {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Kansas City Royals', 'player': 'Jonathan India', 'position': '2B', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-06-04', 'note': 'no', 'detail': 'no', 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/41171'}
  • {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Kansas City Royals', 'player': 'Luinder Avila', 'position': 'SP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-08-06', 'note': 'Manager Matt Quatraro said that Avila is scheduled to undergo Tommy John surgery on his right elbow Wednesday, Joel Goldberg of Bally Sports Kansas City reports.', 'detail': 'The 24-year-old was placed on the injured list Sunday due to forearm tightness, but further evaluation apparently revealed a torn UCL. Avila will miss the rest of this year and is also likely to be sidelined for the full 2027 season. He made 21 appearances (12 starts) for Kansas City prior to the injury and had a 5.53 ERA, 1.61 WHIP and 61:42 K:BB over 70 innings this season. Avila will likely be shifted to the 60-day injured list in the near future.', 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/5201985'}
  • {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Kansas City Royals', 'player': 'Nick Mears', 'position': 'RP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-08-26', 'note': 'Mears (shoulder) was diagnosed with thoracic outlet syndrome Saturday and will undergo season-ending surgery, MLB.com reports.', 'detail': 'Mears has been sidelined since May 29 due to a right shoulder impingement and dealt with multiple setbacks during his rehab, including a right lat strain revealed in mid-July. After progressing to mound work, the right-hander experienced renewed discomfort last week, with subsequent testing revealing thoracic outlet syndrome. Mears will finish his injury-marred first season with the Royals having posted a 5.12 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 15:11 K:BB across 19.1 innings.', 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/42620'}

Boston Red Sox

  • {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Boston Red Sox', 'player': 'Eduardo Rivera', 'position': 'SP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-09-01', 'note': 'The Red Sox recalled Rivera from Triple-A Worcester and placed him on the 60-day injured list Tuesday due to a lumbar strain.', 'detail': "The left-hander landed on Worcester's 7-day injured list in late August due to the injury, and his transition to the MLB 60-day IL will bring an end to his 2026 regular season. Rivera made his first four big-league appearances this year and had a 6.30 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and 10:6 K:BB in 10 innings.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/5265014'}
  • {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Boston Red Sox', 'player': 'Garrett Crochet', 'position': 'SP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-09-09', 'note': 'Crochet (shoulder) threw 20 pitches consisting of fastballs and complementary offerings during a side session Tuesday, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports.', 'detail': "This was Crochet's second side session and first that wasn't exclusively fastballs. Boston manager Chad Tracy was pleased with the session, noting Crochet looked and felt good. The next step has not yet been determined, but the manager mentioned another side session this weekend as a possibility.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/4297835'}
  • {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Boston Red Sox', 'player': 'Johan Oviedo', 'position': 'SP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-09-07', 'note': 'Oviedo (elbow) threw a live batting practice session Friday, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.', 'detail': "Oviedo secured a spot on the Red Sox's Opening Day roster, but he missed out on a rotation spot and began the season in the bullpen. He made one 3.2-inning appearance March 30 but hasn't pitched since, as he's been on the shelf for more than five months while recovering from a right flexor strain. Now that he's finally facing hitters again, Oviedo could be close to a rehab assignment. He'll need multiple appearances in the minors to knock off rust, so he may not be a realistic candidate to rejoin the Red Sox bullpen until the final week of September.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/41405'}
  • {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Boston Red Sox', 'player': 'Kutter Crawford', 'position': 'SP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-09-07', 'note': 'Crawford (forearm) is expected to remain on the injured list for the rest of the season, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.', 'detail': "The Red Sox announced around the All-Star break that Crawford had resumed playing catch at a distance of approximately 100 feet, but news has been scarce on the right-hander ever since. After his 2025 season came to an early end due to right wrist surgery, Crawford was further set back in the spring by the flu. He opened the season on the injured list and appeared to be in line for just a brief absence, but he was pulled off a rehab assignment in mid-April after experiencing right flexor irritation and experienced renewed tightness in his forearm in early June. Though he's under club control through 2028, he could be a non-tender candidate this winter after having essentially two straight seasons lost to injury.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/41277'}
  • {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Boston Red Sox', 'player': 'Tanner Houck', 'position': 'SP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-09-09', 'note': 'Houck (elbow) allowed one run on two walks over two-thirds of an inning for Double-A Portland on Tuesday, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports.', 'detail': 'Houck was understandably rusty in his first game action since July 9, 2025, as just eight of his 20 offerings landed in the zone. The right-hander is next scheduled to pitch Friday and elevate his pitch count to the 40-45 range.', 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/41009'}
  • {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Boston Red Sox', 'player': 'Triston Casas', 'position': '1B', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-08-06', 'note': 'Casas (abdomen/knee) underwent arthroscopic surgery on his left wrist Thursday.', 'detail': "The Red Sox did not offer a timeline for Casas' recovery, but the procedure undoubtedly will end his season. It's another lost year for Casas, who played only 29 games in 2025 and zero in 2026 due to a ruptured patellar tendon, a left intercostal strain and now a wrist problem. Casas will be eligible for salary arbitration for a second time this offseason.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/41180'}
  • {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Boston Red Sox', 'player': 'Zack Kelly', 'position': 'RP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-07-21', 'note': 'The Red Sox recalled Kelly (elbow) from Triple-A Worcester and placed him on the 60-day injured list Tuesday, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports.', 'detail': "The right-hander landed on the 7-day IL at Worcester in early July due to elbow inflammation, and he'll now be sidelined until at least early September. The severity of the injury isn't clear, but it's possible that Kelly has already thrown his last competitive pitch of the season.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/41569'}
  • {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Boston Red Sox', 'player': 'Justin Slaten', 'position': 'RP', 'status': '15-Day-IL', 'severity': 80, 'date': '2026-09-07', 'note': 'Interim manager Chad Tracy said Monday that Slaten (elbow) has been shut down from throwing, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.', 'detail': "Slaten last pitched August 12 due to elbow inflammation, and he's experienced recurring symptoms since restarting a throwing program recently. The 28-year-old is likely looking at multiple more weeks before a return. Slaten owns a 4.60 ERA, 1.37 WHIP and 39:8 K:BB across 31.1 innings of relief this season.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/4917925'}
