Matthew Boyd Scheduled to Make Rehab Start on Sunday
Chicago Cubs manager Craig Counsell said that starting pitcher Matthew Boyd (knee) will make a rehab start with Triple-A Iowa on Sunday, per Bruce Levine of 670 The Score. Boyd underwent surgery to repair his left meniscus in early May, but he appears to be progressing well and could be ready to return to the big leagues in early June. Boyd got off to a slow start to the 2026 season before getting injured, recording a 2-1 record with a 6.00 ERA, 1.29 WHIP, and 31 strikeouts across 24 innings (five starts). However, Boyd's 4.13 xERA and his 49.6% strand rate suggest that he was impacted by some poor luck. In deeper leagues, Boyd could be worth stashing off the waiver wire as a buy-low candidate ahead of his impending return.
