Grayson Rodriguez Could be Activated to Start on Sunday
Los Angeles Angels manager Kurt Suzuki said the team has considered activating right-hander Grayson Rodriguez (shoulder) from the 15-day injured list to have him make his debut with the team on Sunday against the crosstown-rival Los Angeles Dodgers, according to Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register. Right-hander Ryan Johnson is another candidate to make the start in the series finale against the Dodgers on Sunday. Rodriguez pitched in a rehab game last Sunday at Single-A Rancho Cucamonga and was scheduled to throw a bullpen session on Wednesday. The 26-year-old looked good at Rancho Cucamonga, allowing two runs while striking out 11 over 4 2/3 innings, and most importantly, he threw 94 pitches. Right-shoulder inflammation has kept the former Orioles top prospect out all year, and he hasn't pitched in the big leagues since 2024 with Baltimore. Rodriguez is a major question mark for fantasy purposes, and he'll be an easy fade if he makes his 2026 debut against L.A. He's currently rostered in just 15% of Yahoo leagues.
