Texas Rangers right-hander
Tyler Mahle (shoulder) faced hitters on Thursday and will make a rehab start with Triple-A Round Rock on Sept. 2, Shawn McFarland of the Dallas Morning News reports. While the plan is for Mahle to throw two innings in that game, the Rangers could ramp up his rehab process if he pitches well. Shoulder troubles have kept Mahle out of action since June 10, and with the season nearing an end, he may only have enough time to come back in a multi-inning role. Before he went on the IL, the 30-year-old made 14 starts and threw 77 innings - his most since 2022. Mahle has gone 6-3 with a 2.34 ERA (4.31 xERA), a 1.13 WHIP, and 56:27 K:BB this season.

Baltimore Orioles catcher
Adley Rutschman (oblique) is hoping to come off the 10-day injured list over the final 10 days to two weeks of the season. Rutschman hasn't begun swinging a bat yet, but there's optimism that he'll return in 2025. A strained right oblique has shelved Rutschman since Aug. 18, and he also missed time earlier in the year with a left-oblique strain. The two-time All-Star has played in just 85 games as a result, and he has hit a career-worst .227/.310/.373 with nine homers, 29 RBI, and 37 runs scored over 348 trips to the plate. Shortly before Rutschman went on the IL, the Orioles brought up top catching prospect
Samuel Basallo and then signed him to an eight-year contract extension worth a guaranteed $67 million. Basallo has struggled to a .200/.243/.257 line with no HRs and five RBI in his first 10 games and 37 plate appearances.

Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder
Ronny Simon (shoulder) exited the team's 4-2 win over the Boston Red Sox on Friday with an injury to his left shoulder. Simon, who came in to pinch run for
Andrew McCutchen in the top of the eighth inning, injured himself sliding headfirst into home and is undergoing evaluation. The Pirates recalled Simon from Triple-A Indianapolis on Friday when they placed outfielder
Jack Suwinski (groin) on the 10-day injured list, but now he may also require an IL stint. Claimed off waivers from the Miami Marlins in June, Simon has totaled 88 plate appearances this season and hit .234/.299/.273 with no home runs and seven RBI.

Pittsburgh Pirates infielder/outfielder
Isiah Kiner-Falefa was placed on outright waivers by the organization on Friday. This seems like an odd decision considering Kiner-Falefa has been the primary third baseman since
Ke'Bryan Hayes was traded to the Cincinnati Reds. The 30-year-old has struggled at the plate, but does offer solid defense. His fantasy value probably wouldn't be any better elsewhere considering he's basically playing everyday in Pittsburgh. Kiner-Falefa is allowed to continue playing with the Pirates while on waivers.

Los Angeles Dodgers infielder/outfielder
Tommy Edman (ankle) was able to take live batting practice ahead of Friday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. Edman was able to take live at-bats without any issues. This is the first time that Edman has been able to swing the bat since landing on the injured list in early August. The Dodgers are hopeful that Edman will be able to return to the lineup in early September. It's unclear if Edman will require a minor league rehab assignment or not. Regardless, Edman shouldn't be sidelined for too much longer.
Alex Freeland and
Miguel Rojas figure to split up the playing time at second base until Edman is ready.

Washington Nationals catcher
Drew Millas (finger) is set to miss the rest of the 2025 season. Millas will undergo season-ending surgery to repair his fractured left finger. The operation will keep him out for the rest of this year, but Millas should be ready for the beginning of the 2026 campaign. His absence won't have an impact on fantasy leagues as he was the primary backup catcher. In a corresponding move,
C.J. Stubbs has been recalled to take over the spot on the active roster.

Toronto Blue Jays relief pitcher
Yimi Garcia (elbow) will undergo season-ending surgery to clean up scar tissue around his right elbow. He recently received a second opinion on his elbow and has decided to go the surgery route. Garcia has reportedly been dealing with elbow issues since around the All-Star break. The loss of Garcia is certainly a blow to the back-end of the Jays' bullpen. He'll finish the season with a 3.86 ERA, 1.19 WHIP, and a 25/12 K/BB ratio across 22 games. The organization believes Garica will be ready in time for spring training next season.

Minnesota Twins starting pitcher
Pablo Lopez (shoulder) is scheduled to make another rehab start with Triple-A St. Paul on Sunday. This will be his third and hopefully his final rehab outing. Lopez tossed four innings, allowing three runs while striking out five batters during his second rehab start. He was able to throw 68 pitches during that game, so he figures to be stretched out a bit more on Sunday. The hope is that Lopez is ready to pitch for the Twins by next weekend. He has been sidelined since early June due to a shoulder strain.

Toronto Blue Jays outfielder
Anthony Santander (shoulder) appears to be making solid progress in his recovery from a left shoulder subluxation. He has been running, taking batting practice and hitting off a machine. Santander is expected to travel with the team early next week. After that, Santander is expected to begin a minor league rehab assignment. He has been sidelined since late May. If everything goes well, Santander should be able to return in mid-September. There probably won't be enough time left in the season for Santander to help fantasy managers.

Tampa Bay Rays shortstop
Ha-Seong Kim (back) is not expected to return from the 10-day injured list until Monday, at the earliest, according to Ryan Bass of Bally Sports. MLB rosters expand to 28 players on Monday, and that's when Kim figures to return to the big leagues after dealing with back inflammation that landed him on the shelf on Aug. 21. The 29-year-old didn't make his debut with Tampa until early July after having offseason surgery on his shoulder, and he's pretty much been banged up with various ailments ever since. The South Korean native has only suited up for 24 games in his first year with the team and has gone 18-for-84 (.214) with two home runs, five RBI, five runs and six stolen bases. With prospect
Carson Williams now in town, it's unclear if Kim will return to everyday duties at shortstop when he rejoins the Rays.

According to the San Francisco Giants, multiple doctors recommended that reliever
Randy Rodriguez (elbow) undergo Tommy John surgery. Rodriguez will make a final decision this weekend, but Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports thinks it's inevitable. It is brutal news for one of the team's breakout stars in 2025, and Tommy John surgery would keep him out for the entire 2026 season. The Dominican right-hander was placed on the injured list on Tuesday with a right-elbow injury that turned out to be pretty serious. Rodriguz took over primary closing duties in San Fran after the team traded
Camilo Doval at the trade deadline, and he finished his second year in the big leagues as a first-time All-Star with a 1.78 ERA, 0.89 WHIP, four saves and a 67:11 K:BB in 50 2/3 frames. With Rodriguez out,
Ryan Walker has taken over closing duties for the Gigantes.
