Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Matthew Boyd (personal) has been scratched from his scheduled start on Tuesday. Boyd is dealing with a personal matter, so he'll miss this game. The Tigers have not announced a replacement starter for this game. The team may decided to go with a bullpen game. Boyd has a 4.54 ERA with 228 strikeouts in 30 starts with the Tigers this season. He's been one of the few bright spots for the organization during this rebuild year.

The Detroit Tigers may have ultimately lost their game 4-3 against Tampa Bay on Sunday, but starter Matt Boyd pitched a gem, allowing only one run in seven innings while striking out nine. The line is a welcome sight for Boyd owners, as the second-year pitcher had given up 11 runs in his past two starts. Things won't be easy for Boyd next week, as he'll go on the road to face the AL e[Minnesota Twins on Friday.

The San Diego Padres have shown interest in Detroit Tigers starter Matt Boyd, per MLB Networks Jon Morosi. No surprise here since seemingly half the league remains in playoff contention and views Boyd as an asset they can capitalize on immediately and in future years. The 28-year-old Boyd is amidst a breakout season with a 3.87 ERA, 1.12 [...]

The Top 10 tier lost two high-profile prospects this past week with the promotions of pitcher Bryse Wilson, pitcher (and hitter) Brendan McKay (Rays), and second baseman Keston Hiura (Brewers). McKay and Hiura could play huge roles in their respective teams race for a playoff berth. The Rays multi-tool prospect had an eye-opening debut against the Rangers and more than justified his fourth-overall ranking on last weeks list.Pitcher Dylan Cease ([...]

Texas Rangers outfielder Shin-Soo Choo (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Detroit Tigers. This appears to be nothing more than a rest day for the veteran outfielder. Willie Calhoun will serve as the designated hitter and bat seventh versus lefty Matthew Boyd. Calhoun has been hitting fairly well since being recalled, but he could have some struggles against Boyd.

Before we dive into this week's recommendation, kudos to my colleague David Emerick for filling in admirably in this space the last two weeks while I was catching up with family and friends back east.As we move deeper into the first half of the season, the waiver wire usually thins out a good bit. Most teams are still angling to win and actively participating, and between injuries and finally cutting the cord on early-season disappointments, it can be difficult to find reinforcements.
