The MLB has never seen a more impressive group of pitchers at one time around the league, so many have become fantasy baseball studs. 2023 is no different, but the flurry of injuries at the position is always a factor. Today, we'll look at injured pitchers, including Jacob deGrom, Max Scherzer, Luis Severino, Andres Munoz, Nick Lodolo, and more. Searching the waiver wire for fill-in pitchers is already a key aspect of fantasy baseball, so finding replacements for players out of action isn't too ...

Texas Rangers manager Bruce Bochy said that starting pitcher Jacob deGrom (elbow) could be "another 2-3 weeks" from returning from the injured list. deGrom continues to only do light throwing as he rehabs from a right forearm/elbow injury, and the Rangers certainly aren't going to rush the oft-injured 34-year-old right-hander back into action. There is no timetable for deGrom to get back onto a mound at this point, so fantasy managers are just going to have to continue to be patient with the ...

Texas Rangers starting pitcher Jacob deGrom (elbow) continues to be limited to playing light catch, and there's no timetable for when he will be cleared to throw off a mound. deGrom's rehab from a right-elbow injury is going to take some time, so fantasy managers won't be getting the 34-year-old right-hander back from the injured list when he's eligible to return this Sunday. All fantasy managers can do with the oft-injured hurler is be patient and continue to stash him in an injured-list slot....

The topsy-turvy baseball season continues chugging along into May. The Pirates are in first place along with the Rays and the Yankees and Cardinals are in last place. Just like we all expected. The new rules in baseball may have something to do with these results with more stolen bases and more offense in general.The new rules may also have something to do with more injuries, especially to pitchers. Being six weeks into the season, some teams may be now getting their reinforcements back -; ...

However, untimely injuries always play a part in complicating lineup decisions. This week is no different. Today we'll look at injured pitchers including Jacob deGrom, Nestor Cortes, Carlos Rodon, Kyle Wright, and Kyle Freeland, among others. Searching the waiver wire for fill-in pitchers is already a key aspect of fantasy baseball, so finding ...

Texas Rangers starting pitcher Jacob deGrom (elbow) is scheduled to play catch at some point this week. The stud right-hander was recently placed on the injured list due to right elbow inflammation. The Rangers haven't given a clear timetable of when deGrom will be able to get back on the field. The fact he's going to play catch is a positive sign, but it doesn't sound like he's close to returning. Fantasy managers should check back later in the week for another update on his status.

It's horrible news for everyone involved as he was pitching like the ace he is and will now be shut down for some time. It's not known how long he will miss, but an extended absence may ...

Texas Rangers manager Bruce Bochy said that starting pitcher Jacob deGrom (forearm) left his start on Friday against the New York Yankees early due to left-forearm tightness. The team will continue to evaluate him on Saturday, but this is an ominous sign for the oft-injured right-hander. Before leaving, deGrom allowed no runs and only one hit while walking one and striking out two in 3 2/3 innings to lower his season ERA to 2.67. Until we know more, fantasy managers should consider the ...

Texas Rangers starting pitcher Jacob deGrom (wrist) was forced to exit early during his last start, but felt good enough to pitch on Sunday. The superstar right-hander looked as sharp as ever during Sunday's 5-2 win over the Oakland Athletics. The A's offense had no answers for deGrom as they struck out 11 times over his six innings of work. The Rangers have now won all five of the games deGrom has started this season. The 34-year-old holds a 3.04 ERA and a 43/3 K/BB ratio in 26 2/3 innings for...
