Tampa Bay Rays

• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Tampa Bay Rays', 'player': 'Edwin Uceta', 'position': 'RP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-08-15', 'note': 'Uceta (shoulder) is playing catch from 75 feet, per MLB.com.', 'detail': "Uceta continues to progress slowly from a right shoulder impingement and subsequent subscapularis strain. The right-hander's timeline for a return to the Rays remains murky at best, and he appears to be unlikely to be an option for Tampa Bay's bullpen until sometime in September with several hurdles still left to climb.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/41308'}
• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Tampa Bay Rays', 'player': 'Gavin Lux', 'position': 'LF', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-08-11', 'note': 'Lux (shoulder) is unlikely to return this season, per MLB.com.', 'detail': "Lux's most recent setback saw him get shut down in mid-July after receiving an injection in his right shoulder. His initial rehab assignment in April was halted by a sprained left ankle, and the infielder was later pulled off another minor-league stint with left shoulder inflammation. The Rays haven't officially ruled out Lux for the remainder of the year, but his status for the rest of 2026 is in major doubt.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/40423'}
• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Tampa Bay Rays', 'player': 'Jake Fraley', 'position': 'RF', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-08-26', 'note': 'Fraley (hernia) went 1-for-3 while playing six innings in right field Tuesday in his first rehab game for Triple-A Durham.', 'detail': "After undergoing hernia surgery in May and landing on the injured list, Fraley received the green light to begin a rehab assignment in late June. The 31-year-old made just five appearances in the minors before being pulled off the assignment in mid-July when he experienced a setback, but after a prolonged shutdown, he's made enough progress to resume playing in games. Due to the extended time he's missed, Fraley will likely need multiple games at Triple-A to regain his timing at the plate and improve his conditioning. He could be a candidate to return from the 60-day injured list after the active roster expands to 28 men next Tuesday.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/37974'}
• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Tampa Bay Rays', 'player': 'Jonathan Heasley', 'position': 'RP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-06-08', 'note': 'Heasley was returned to the major-league roster and placed on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with a right elbow stress reaction.', 'detail': "Heasley was outrighted to Triple-A Durham on Saturday, but because he suffered his injury during his time with the Rays, he'll be placed on the Rays' 15-day injured list and also reclaim a spot on the 40-man roster. The 29-year-old righty gave up five earned runs in four innings during his lone outing with Tampa and will likely be outrighted to Triple-A again once he's healthy.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/4179560'}
• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Tampa Bay Rays', 'player': 'Ryan Pepiot', 'position': 'SP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-05-08', 'note': 'Pepiot will undergo surgery on his right hip May 13 and miss the rest of the 2026 season, Ryan Bass of Rays.tv reports.', 'detail': 'The right-hander landed on the injured list with hip inflammation late in spring training and was transferred to the 60-day injured list in mid-April after suffering a setback. Pepiot received an injection after the setback, but his hip felt "unstable" when playing catch a few days later, and he\'ll now end up missing the entirety of the 2026 campaign.', 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/4208281'}
• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Tampa Bay Rays', 'player': 'Garrett Cleavinger', 'position': 'RP', 'status': '15-Day-IL', 'severity': 80, 'date': '2026-09-05', 'note': 'The Rays placed Cleavinger on the 15-day injured list Saturday due to left forearm tightness, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.', 'detail': "The 32-year-old southpaw may have picked up the injury during Friday's outing against the Rangers, when he allowed two runs on two hits (including a home run) and a walk while failing to record an out. He's eligible to return from the IL on Sept. 20, though his recovery timeline will be more clear once he undergoes more tests and is cleared to start a throwing program. Right-hander Ty Johnson had his contract selected from Triple-A Durham in a corresponding move.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/36429'}
• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Tampa Bay Rays', 'player': 'Manuel Rodriguez', 'position': 'RP', 'status': '15-Day-IL', 'severity': 80, 'date': '2026-09-05', 'note': 'The Rays placed Rodriguez on the 15-day injured list Friday, retroactive to Sept. 3, with a lower-back strain.', 'detail': "Rodriguez has given up two earned runs and struck out eight batters in 4.2 innings since making his season debut Aug. 24, but he'll now head back to the injured list after tweaking his back. Cole Sulser (back) was reinstated from the 15-day IL in a corresponding move to take Rodriguez's place in the Rays' bullpen.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/42363'}
• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Tampa Bay Rays', 'player': 'Shane McClanahan', 'position': 'SP', 'status': '15-Day-IL', 'severity': 80, 'date': '2026-09-04', 'note': 'Tampa Bay placed McClanahan on the 15-day injured list Friday with left forearm tightness.', 'detail': "McClanahan will make his second stint on the IL in the last three months after Thursday's rocky outing against Texas. The left-hander lasted just five innings, allowing four earned runs, his most given up since July 19. In his first season since 2023, McClanahan owns a 10-7 record, 3.36 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and 106:39 K:BB over 118 innings. With the 29-year-old on the shelf, the Rays recalled Alex Cook from Triple-A Durham to replace McClanahan on the active roster.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/41199'}

Atlanta Braves

• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Atlanta Braves', 'player': 'Joe Jimenez', 'position': 'RP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-08-31', 'note': 'Atlanta manager Walt Weiss said Monday that Jimenez (knee) has been responding well after bullpen sessions the past few weeks, but the skipper acknowledged that a return from the 60-day injured list this season would still be a "giant leap," Grant McAuley of the Marietta Daily Journal reports.', 'detail': "On the mend after undergoing a third surgery on his left knee in the spring, Jimenez is making good progress in his recovery. Per Chad Bishop of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, the right-hander threw a 20-pitch side session at Truist Park and took part in pitcher's fielding practice Monday. It's unlikely the 31-year-old will have enough time to check all of the boxes needed to return before the end of the regular season, however. Jimenez hasn't pitched in a game since October 2024.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/33760'}
• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Atlanta Braves', 'player': 'Joey Wentz', 'position': 'RP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-05-08', 'note': 'Atlanta placed Wentz (knee) on the 60-day injured list Tuesday.', 'detail': 'The transaction clears a 40-man roster spot for waiver pick Osvaldo Bido. Wentz will miss the entire 2026 campaign after undergoing surgery earlier this month to repair a torn ACL in his right knee.', 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/40927'}
• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Atlanta Braves', 'player': 'Robert Suarez', 'position': 'RP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-09-01', 'note': 'Atlanta transferred Suarez (elbow) to the 60-day injured list Tuesday.', 'detail': "The move frees a spot on the 40-man roster for Atlanta. It does not alter Suarez's timeline, as he's already missed more than 60-days of action. Suarez has resumed throwing off a mound as he works his way back from right elbow inflammation, and he should rejoin the Atlanta bullpen sometime this month, barring setbacks.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/4148749'}
• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Atlanta Braves', 'player': 'Spencer Schwellenbach', 'position': 'SP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-08-28', 'note': 'Schwellenbach will undergo season-ending surgery to repair a fracture in his right elbow, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.', 'detail': "Schwellenbach missed the final three months of last season with the injury, and it seems the fracture never properly healed. He has been sidelined this season following surgery in February to remove bone spurs from his elbow. There's no word yet on the timeline for Schwellenbach, but it's possible he will not be ready in time for the start of the 2027 season.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/4424862'}
• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Atlanta Braves', 'player': 'Spencer Strider', 'position': 'SP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-08-28', 'note': "Strider (elbow) is not expected to return to Atlanta's active roster before the end of this season, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.", 'detail': 'Strider has been shelved since mid-June with right elbow inflammation. He resumed a throwing progression earlier this month, and while the team has not yet officially ruled out a return this season for the right-hander, Bowman says "the assumption since June" is that Strider will not make it back.', 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/4307825'}
• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Atlanta Braves', 'player': 'Reynaldo Lopez', 'position': 'RP', 'status': '15-Day-IL', 'severity': 80, 'date': '2026-09-07', 'note': "Lopez (knee) will return from the 15-day injured list to start Wednesday's game against the Rays in Atlanta, Chad Bishop of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.", 'detail': "Atlanta will keep a six-man rotation intact but will open up a spot for Lopez by shifting Bryce Elder to the bullpen, at least for the next week. Lopez will make his return to the big club after a strong showing in his three-start rehab assignment at Triple-A Gwinnett, during which he rung up a 2.57 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 11:3 K:BB in 14 innings. He tossed 93 pitches in his final rehab outing and shouldn't face any workload restrictions Wednesday, when he makes his 12th start of the season for Atlanta.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/33860'}
• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Atlanta Braves', 'player': 'Jurickson Profar', 'position': 'LF', 'status': 'suspension', 'severity': 50, 'date': '2026-05-08', 'note': 'Profar will miss the full 2026 season after the appeal of his 162-game PED suspension was denied Thursday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.', 'detail': "The 33-year-old outfielder was handed the suspension in early March, and the ban is now official with the appeal process completed. It's the second straight season with a PED suspension for Profar, who will also be ineligible to play in the postseason.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/31117'}
