Seattle Mariners pitcher Matthew Boyd (elbow) threw a bullpen session with the Tacoma Rainiers on Thursday. The next step for the southpaw will be a rehab assignment. He has been sidelined all season as Boyd continues to work his way back from surgery on his flexor tendon last September. The 31-year-old went 3-8 with a 3.89 ERA, 1.27 WHIP, 67 strikeouts, and 23 walks in 78 2/3 innings over 15 starts. Boyd will most likely be used in a multi-inning relief role once activated from the injured ...

The Seattle Mariners acquired left-hander Matthew Boyd (elbow) from the San Francisco Giants on Tuesday. Boyd has yet to pitch in 2022 and was shut down in mid-June after he felt discomfort in his elbow while recovering from left flexor tendon surgery. The 31-year-old southpaw was cleared to resume throwing off a mound last week, though. In his last season with the Detroit Tigers in 2021, he went 3-8 with a 3.89 ERA, 1.27 WHIP, 67 strikeouts and 23 walks in 78 2/3 innings over 15 starts. It's ...

San Francisco Giants left-hander Matthew Boyd (forearm) is continuing his rehab in San Francisco and is scheduled to throw a live batting practice session at Oracle Park on Monday. Boyd has been throwing 40-pitch bullpen sessions since late April and has been using all of his pitches. The 31-year-old southpaw had left flexor tendon surgery last September and could begin a minor league rehab assignment soon as long as his throwing session on Monday goes well. Boyd probably won't make his season ...

San Francisco Giants left-hander Matthew Boyd (elbow) continues to throw off a mound twice a week and is making good progress. Boyd had elbow surgery last September, and the Giants knew when they signed him to a one-year deal that he wouldn't be ready this year until sometime in June. The 31-year-old southpaw looks to be doing well in his rehab, though, but fantasy managers in mixed leagues can continue to ignore him for now. In 15 starts for the Detroit Tigers in 2021, Boyd had a 3.89 ERA, ...

The San Francisco Giants signed free-agent left-hander Matthew Boyd to a one-year, $5.2 million deal on Wednesday evening. The deal includes $2.3 million in incentives. Boyd becomes the fifth starting pitcher signed or re-signed by the Giants this offseason following Anthony DeSclafani, Alex Wood, Alex Cobb and Carlos Rodon. The 31-year-old southpaw had surgery to fix a flexor tendon in his left arm in September and isn't expected to be ready for game action until sometime this summer. In 15 ...

Left-handed pitcher Matthew Boyd (elbow), who was designated for assignment by the Detroit Tigers just before the lockout began in early December, said he expects to be ready for game action in early June after having surgery last September to fix the flexor tendon in his left arm. The 31-year-old southpaw said his "elbow feels better than it ever has," and he's been throwing from up to 75 feet. Boyd expects to begin throwing bullpen sessions in the last two weeks of March. Interested teams may ...

Starting pitcher Matthew Boyd is set for free agency, as the Detroit Tigers have opted not to tender him a contract for the 2022 season. The left-handed Boyd was estimated by Matt Swartz of MLB Trade Rumors to earn $7.3 million dollars through arbitration in the 2022 season. There's enough upside that he should have little trouble catching on with a new team, but he's coming off two forearm injuries that put an end to his 2021 season with only 78 2/3 innings pitched. For his career, Boyd has...

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Matthew Boyd (elbow) will undergo surgery to repair the flexor tendon in his left arm, Jason Beck of MLB.com reported. The 30-year-old southpaw was sidelined for more than two months this season due to discomfort in his left arm and has struggled since returning, going 1-4 in his last starts with a 6.10 ERA and surrendered 21 earned runs in the process. There is no timetable yet for Boyd to return to the mound, although the Tigers are optimistic he will be able ...

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Matthew Boyd (left elbow strain) will see Dallas orthopedic surgeon Dr. Keith Meister. "He'll get further evaluations and opinions and see what's next," said manager A.J. Hinch. Boyd missed more than two months this summer due to left arm discomfort before returning in late August. He made two outings before landing on the injured list again. Through 15 starts, the southpaw is 3-8 with a 3.89 ERA, 1.27 WHIP, and .255 OBA. This latest injury could bring an end to ...

The Detroit Tigers will reportedly place left-handed starter Matthew Boyd (elbow) on the injured list. According to a tweet from The Detroit Free Press' Evan Petzold, Boyd "has reoccurring elbow soreness." The left-hander was scratched his Friday start against the Tampa Bay Rays. It's certainly not ideal news for the Tigers or fantasy managers. In 78.2 innings this season, Boyd has pitched to a 3.89 ERA, a 4.09 FIP, 67 strikeouts, and 23 walks. Tyler Alexander is starting in Boyd's place ...
