Player Notes

  • Removed from game
    Bird was taken out of Saturday's game against the Nationals with what appears to be a groin injury, Luke Zahlmann of The Denver Gazette reports.

    Advice: Bird had allowed one run on two hits and a walk in one-third of the seventh inning but was checked out by trainers an removed from the contest after throwing a warm-up pitch during a review. He appeared to reach toward the groin area after the pitch, signaling that it's likely unrelated to the elbow inflammation that sidelined him for almost a month. Rotowire.com 5 minutes ago
  • Strong again in win
    Blanco (8-2) allowed one run on four hits and three walks while striking out four over seven innings to earn the win over the Orioles on Saturday.

    Advice: Blanco wasn't as dominant as he was with seven no-hit innings last weekend versus the Tigers, but it was still an impressive showing. He's allowed just two runs over 20 innings across his last three starts after giving up four runs in each of his two outings before this stretch of dominance. The right-hander continues to thrive in his first full year as a starter, pitching to a 2.34 ERA, 0.97 WHIP and 79:35 K:BB through 84.2 innings over 14 starts. Blanco is projected to make his next start on the road versus the Mets. Rotowire.com 17 minutes ago
  • Perfect inning for save
    Clase struck out one in a perfect inning to earn the save in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Blue Jays.

    Advice: Clase retired the side on 15 pitches for his 23rd save of the season. He's pitched four perfect innings over his last four appearances after giving up runs in back-to-back outings June 9 and 11. The 26-year-old has been nearly untouchable for the Guardians with a 0.74 ERA, 0.61 WHIP and 37:3 K:BB over 36.1 innings. He's posted over 40 saves in back-to-back years, and he's well on his way to making it three campaigns in a row. Rotowire.com Today, 7:01 pm
  • Robert Suarez secures one-out save on Saturday
    Robert Suarez picked up his 19th save of the season on Saturday, recording the final out against the Brewers.

    Advice: It didn’t seem like Suarez would be needed in this one after the Padres entered the ninth inning leading 6-0, but after Brice Turang slugged a two-out grand slam that made things a bit tighter, the 33-year-old right-hander was summoned to close it out. It took him just three pitches to get William Contreras to bounce out to third base to end it. On the season, he has now converted 19 of his first 20 save chances while registering a 1.16 ERA and a 29/6 K/BB ratio over 31 innings of work. Rotoworld Today, 6:59 pm
  • Randy Vasquez fires five scoreless in win Saturday
    Randy Vasquez pitched well in Saturday’s victory over the Brewers, scattering five hits over five scoreless innings of work.

    Advice: The 25-year-old right-hander also issued three free passes in the contest while striking out three. The biggest threat against him came in his final inning of work, as the Brewers put two men on with two outs and William Contreras crushed a ball to the wall in center field that came up just short of being a three-run homer. Vasquez generated just three whiffs on 98 pitches on the day, registering a minuscule CSW of only 17 percent. He’ll look to carry over the momentum from this fine outing as he brings a 5.10 ERA, 1.68 WHIP and a 31/12 K/BB ratio (47 2/3 innings) into Friday’s showdown against the Red Sox at Fenway Park.
