Washington Nationals

• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Washington Nationals', 'player': 'Connelly Early', 'position': 'SP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-08-28', 'note': 'Nationals manager Blake Butera said Friday that Early (elbow) will begin a rehab assignment Sept. 8, Kyle Williams of TheBanner.com reports.', 'detail': "Early threw a bullpen session Friday, a continuance of his throwing program as he progresses in his recovery from left elbow inflammation and forearm tightness. He'll embark on a rehab assignment in early September, so there's still a chance that the 24-year-old southpaw will pitch in the majors before the end of the 2026 season.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/4863321'}
• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Washington Nationals', 'player': 'DJ Herz', 'position': 'SP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-08-21', 'note': 'Herz (elbow) struck out two and allowed one hit and two walks over two scoreless innings in a rehab start Thursday with Double-A Harrisburg.', 'detail': "After Herz underwent Tommy John surgery in April 2025 and then suffered a left flexor strain in late June, the Nationals have been having him ramp up slowly since he started up a new rehab assignment earlier this month. Through three outings between Single-A Fredericksburg and Harrisburg, Herz has yet to permit a run, but he's been limited to one, two and two innings in those appearances. The 33 pitches he threw Thursday marked a new high total for Herz, but he'll likely need to push that count up to the 70-to-80 range before becoming a viable option for the Washington rotation.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/4917686'}
• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Washington Nationals', 'player': 'Drew Millas', 'position': 'C', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-09-01', 'note': 'The Nationals transferred Millas (finger) to the 60-day injured list Tuesday.', 'detail': "Shifting Millas to the 60-day IL frees up a spot on the 40-man roster for the Nationals' September call-ups. Millas has been out since mid-July with a fractured left index finger. He'll be eligible to return in mid-September and should have a chance to return at some point this month.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/4228448'}
• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Washington Nationals', 'player': 'Josiah Gray', 'position': 'SP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-09-05', 'note': 'Gray (elbow) would like to pitch in the majors this season, even if it\'s out of the bullpen, Mark Zuckerman of NatsJournal.com reports. "I think that\'s the goal for this year, to get innings up here, help the team win some games," the right-hander said Monday from the big-league clubhouse.', 'detail': "It's been a long time since Gray was able to make a contribution for the Nationals, as his last major-league action came April 4, 2024. Since then, he's undergone Tommy John surgery in July of that year, endured a lengthy rehab that only began to ramp up last September, and then dealt with a right flexor strain that cropped up this spring. Gray was able to begin a new rehab assignment at Single-A Fredericksburg in mid-August but has been limited to short outings, working his way up to Double-A Harrisburg on Wednesday and tossing a shutout inning. It's still not clear if the Nationals have any plans to take him off the 60-day IL and find a spot for him on the 40-man roster before the end of the season, but at the very least Gray seems to be on his way to wrapping up the campaign in good health.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/41165'}
• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Washington Nationals', 'player': 'Ken Waldichuk', 'position': 'RP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-06-11', 'note': 'Waldichuk (elbow) underwent Tommy John surgery and an internal brace procedure April 21 and is hopeful to return to game action at some point early in the 2027 season, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.', 'detail': 'Waldichuk posted a 6.75 ERA and 1.50 WHIP in 9.1 innings over his five relief appearances with Washington before landing on the injured list April 13 after suffering a left forearm injury. The southpaw received a couple of medical opinions in the week following the injury and ultimately decided to undergo Tommy John surgery for the second time in just under two years, after he previously had the procedure in May 2024. Waldichuk also underwent a flexor tendon repair as part of the operation.', 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/4189711'}
• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Washington Nationals', 'player': 'Mitchell Parker', 'position': 'RP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-07-30', 'note': 'Parker underwent elbow ligament repair surgery with an internal brace Wednesday, Mark Zuckerman of NatsJournal.com reports.', 'detail': 'Parker moved to the 60-day IL at the start of the month after being diagnosed with a Grade 3 UCL sprain, and the procedure will officially keep him out for the remainder of 2026 and most, if not all, of the 2027 campaign, as well.', 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/4683356'}
• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Washington Nationals', 'player': 'PJ Poulin', 'position': 'RP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-08-02', 'note': 'The Nationals transferred Poulin (forearm) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Sunday.', 'detail': "Poulin had been on the shelf since July 19 due to a left flexor strain, and his move to the 60-day IL ensures that he'll remain out through Sept. 13. The southpaw's move to the 60-day frees up a spot on the 40-man roster for one of Yovanny Cruz and Jake Bird, two of the four players the Nationals acquired Sunday in the deal that sent Luis Garcia to the Yankees.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/4019760'}
• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Washington Nationals', 'player': 'Richard Lovelady', 'position': 'RP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-09-02', 'note': 'Lovelady (triceps) began a rehab assignment with Single-A Fredericksburg on Tuesday, giving up a solo home run in one inning of work.', 'detail': "Lovelady was making his first appearance since he suffered a left triceps strain in late June. The lefty reliever could need another rehab outing or two, but he's close to rejoining the Nationals' bullpen.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/39856'}

Los Angeles Dodgers

• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Los Angeles Dodgers', 'player': 'Ben Casparius', 'position': 'RP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-09-02', 'note': 'Casparius (shoulder) experienced arm fatigue while on a minor-league rehab assignment and has been shut down from throwing, MLB.com reports.', 'detail': "Casparius landed on the injured list in mid-April due to right shoulder inflammation. He began a rehab stint July 25 and has logged 10 appearances with Triple-A Oklahoma City. The righty reliever has struggled to a 7.27 ERA, 2.56 WHIP and 10:14 K:BB over 8.2 innings, though he had been showing improvement with just one earned run allowed across his past five frames. It's unclear how much Casparius' arm fatigue will set him back, but it's certainly possible that he won't return to the big-league club this year given both the injury and his poor overall numbers during the rehab assignment.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/4326800'}
• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Los Angeles Dodgers', 'player': 'Bobby Miller', 'position': 'SP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-08-18', 'note': 'Miller (shoulder) struck out three and allowed two hits and one walk over three scoreless innings in a rehab appearance Sunday with Triple-A Oklahoma City.', 'detail': "Miller has made all but one of his 37 career big-league appearances as a starter, but he looks to be preparing for a relief role during his rehab assignment. While he's covered multiple innings in each of his first three rehab outings, he's been used out of the bullpen for the last two appearances. The 27-year-old righty has been on the shelf all season while recovering from shoulder and back injuries and may need another tune-up outing or two in the minors before potentially joining the Los Angeles bullpen.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/4326703'}
• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Los Angeles Dodgers', 'player': 'Brusdar Graterol', 'position': 'RP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-06-01', 'note': 'Graterol (shoulder) underwent surgery recently for a back injury he suffered while on a rehab assignment, Jack Harris of the California Post reports.', 'detail': 'The specifics of the procedure aren\'t clear, but Harris writes that Graterol\'s return this season is "in jeopardy." Graterol has been working his way back from right shoulder surgery and has not pitched at the big-league level since 2024. The 27-year-old will be a free agent at the end of this season.', 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/40965'}
• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Los Angeles Dodgers', 'player': 'Gavin Stone', 'position': 'SP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-09-05', 'note': "Stone (shoulder) hasn't made a rehab appearance for Triple-A Oklahoma City since Aug. 26 due to a minor biceps injury, Jack Harris of the California Post reports.", 'detail': "Stone skipped out on a rehab start this week to recover from the injury, but the Dodgers are hopeful that he'll be able to make another appearance or two at Triple-A before making his return from the 60-day injured list. Prior to the biceps issue cropping up, Stone had been magnificent through his first four rehab starts, posting a 1.54 ERA, 0.43 WHIP and 18:1 K:BB in 11.2 innings. Stone's stellar form at Triple-A looked to have put him in the mix to potentially enter the Dodgers' six-man rotation once activated, but the biceps injury makes it more likely that he works in relief if he's activated before the end of the regular season.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/4417230'}
• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Los Angeles Dodgers', 'player': 'Jake Cousins', 'position': 'RP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-09-03', 'note': 'Cousins (elbow) began a rehab assignment with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Wednesday, striking out one and issuing one walk in a scoreless frame.', 'detail': "It's the first appearance for Cousins since he underwent Tommy John surgery last June. He averaged 94.3 mph with his four-seamer in the outing, which is down only slightly from his pre-surgery velocity. Cousins has had difficulty staying healthy in his career, but he boasts a 2.78 ERA and 32.6 percent strikeout rate over parts of four seasons, so he could provide a boost to the Dodgers' bullpen down the stretch after he makes a few more rehab appearances.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/42964'}
• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Los Angeles Dodgers', 'player': 'Kris Bubic', 'position': 'SP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-09-02', 'note': 'Bubic (shoulder) began a rehab assignment with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Tuesday, striking out two in a perfect inning.', 'detail': 'Bubic initially went down with left elbow soreness in mid-May and had to be pulled off an initial rehab assignment due to left shoulder discomfort. His outing Tuesday was his first in more than two months, but he looked sharp. Bubic was acquired by the Dodgers at the trade deadline and is aiming to help out as a reliever down the stretch.', 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/41201'}
• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Los Angeles Dodgers', 'player': 'Will Klein', 'position': 'RP', 'status': '60-Day-IL', 'severity': 95, 'date': '2026-09-03', 'note': 'The Dodgers transferred Klein (elbow) to the 60-day injured list Wednesday.', 'detail': 'Klein initially landed on the injured list Aug. 1 due to bone chips in his right elbow, so his move to the 60-day IL will ensure he remains out through the end of the regular season. His 40-man roster spot will be passed along to Blake Treinen (elbow), who returned from the 60-day IL in a corresponding move.', 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/4313163'}
• {'sport': 'MLB', 'team': 'Los Angeles Dodgers', 'player': 'Edwin Diaz', 'position': 'RP', 'status': '15-Day-IL', 'severity': 80, 'date': '2026-09-02', 'note': 'Diaz (neck) will embark on a rehab assignment before returning from the injured list, Jack Harris of the California Post reports.', 'detail': "Diaz threw a simulated inning Tuesday and will do so again later this week before joining one of the Dodgers' minor-league affiliates. It's unknown how many rehab innings the 32-year-old will pitch before rejoining Los Angeles' bullpen, but once he's healthy, he is expected to pitch in lower-leverage situations until the Dodgers are comfortable moving him back into a closing role.", 'player_url': 'https://www.espn.com/mlb/player/_/id/35394'}
