Junis ends the regular season with a 4.42 ERA, 1.29 WHIP, and 98:25 K/BB ratio over 112 innings (23 appearances, seven starts).

The organization will have Junis undergo further testing, so fantasy managers will have to stay tuned for more updates. There should be more details following a CT scan on Monday.

Longoria is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Milwaukee Brewers. He'll be batting out of the cleanup spot. The 36-year-old missed about 10 days due to an oblique injury. Junis, meanwhile, had been on the shelf for over a month with a hamstring injury. He's primarily worked as a starter for the team this year and will ...

San Francisco Giants right-hander Jakob Junis (hamstring) is likely looking at a four- to six-week absence, according to the team. Junis is currently rehabbing the injury after hitting the injured list on Saturday after suffering a Grade 2 hamstring strain during his start on Friday night. The injury will now keep him out at least a month and possibly longer, as he will most certainly need a handful of rehab starts after the extended absence. The loss of Junis is a big one for the Giants, as he ...

San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Jakob Junis was placed on the 15-day IL Saturday with a left hamstring strain. After being removed from his start Friday, Junis had an MRI today that showed a grade two hamstring strain. As this is not a mild strain, expect Junis to miss well over the minimum 15 days. Usually, this type of injury requires three to six weeks of recovery. Junis had been a nice surprise this year, posting a 2.63 ERA and 0.96 WHIP with good underlying numbers to go with it. ...

He started the game and pitched 4 2/3 innings, allowing four hits, one walk and three earned runs while striking out six. The 28-year-old Junis showed flashes of success with the Royals earlier this year, but a rough patch led to his demotion to Triple-A. He continued to struggle at Triple-A this year, making nine starts and going 0-2 with a 5.48 ERA ...

Kansas City Royals pitcher Jakob Junis has been optioned to Triple-A to free up a roster spot for Jackson Kowar. This shouldn't surprise anyone with Junis posting a 5.19 ERA, 1.44 WHIP and 35/11 K/BB ratio across 34 2/3 innings. He was already pulled out of the rotation, so Junis was the odd man out here. Kowar is scheduled to pitch against the Los Angeles Angels on Monday. This is unlikely to be a spot start, so fantasy managers shouldn't expect Junis back anytime soon. Junis can be ignored ...
