Minnesota Twins starting pitcher
Joe Ryan let up two hits and one earned run over six innings pitched in Saturday's 2-1 win against the San Francisco Giants. He struck out seven batters and walked none in the quality start, improving to 3-2 on the year. The San Francisco native was stellar in his eighth start, able to retire every batter he faced except
Heliot Ramos, who accounted for both hits (single, homer) against him. Otherwise, the 28-year-old was locked in and has now recorded three straight appearances allowing one or fewer earned runs and four straight with one or fewer free passes. He'll carry a sterling 2.74 ERA and 0.87 WHIP (46 innings) with an efficient 54:5 K:BB ratio into his next outing against the Milwaukee Brewers.

Boston Red Sox starting pitcher
Garrett Crochet pitched seven innings of one-run ball in Saturday's 10-1 win over the Kansas City Royals. The former first-round pick allowed seven hits and walked one, while striking out nine batters. Just one of the knocks against him went for extra bases (double) as he fired in 75 of 106 pitches for strikes, bolstering an excellent 29% CSW (18 whiffs). The lone tally against him came in the third inning when Royals left-fielder
Mark Canha singled in teammate
Bobby Witt Jr. Crochet has been superb to start 2025, holding a 1.93 ERA and 1.07 WHIP with a 65:21 K:BB ratio across nine starts (56 innings). He'll carry a 4-2 record into his next outing, which projects to come against the Atlanta Braves at home late next week.

Texas Rangers starting pitcher
Jacob deGrom had his swing-and-miss stuff going for him during Saturday's start against the Detroit Tigers. The right-hander gave up a solo home run to
Kerry Carpenter in the first inning, but settled down after that. He was taken deep once again in the fourth inning by
Riley Greene, but deGrom was able to limit the damage. He went five innings, allowing two earned runs on five hits while striking out 10 batters in the win. Over the last five starts, deGrom has allowed two earned runs or less in every outing. He'll take a 2.72 ERA into his next start against the Houston Astros.

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher
Ranger Suarez bounced back nicely during Saturday's start against the Cleveland Guardians. Suarez was crushed for seven runs during his season debut, but looked much better on the mound in this one. The left-hander really had no issues in this one as he tossed seven shutout innings, allowing three hits, while striking out five batters in the win. His next start will come in a favorable spot with a matchup against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Suarez will likely be a popular waiver wire addition after this one and is a good streaming choice for his next start.

Houston Astros second baseman
Jose Altuve (hamstring) was forced to make an early exit from Saturday's game against the Cincinnati Reds. It's unclear how Altuve suffered the hamstring issue as he was replaced by
Brendan Rodgers in the third inning. Altuve walked in his lone plate appearance and came around to score in the first inning. The expectation is that Altuve will undergo further testing to determine the severity of the injury. There is a good chance he misses Sunday's game, but for now fantasy managers should consider him as day-to-day. Rodgers will likely see more time at second base if Altuve does miss any time. Fantasy managers will need to check back on Sunday for another update on his status.

Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder
Oneil Cruz (back) made a late exit during Saturday's game against the Atlanta Braves. Cruz appears to have tweaked his back during the ninth inning of this contest. As a result, Cruz was removed from the contest and replaced by
Matt Gorski in center field. Before exiting, Cruz was 0-for-4 with a walk, stolen base, and a run scored. The team is considering Cruz day-to-day with back tightness, so fantasy managers shouldn't expect him to miss much time. Gorski will likely see more time in center field if Cruz misses some action. Fantasy managers will have to check back on Sunday for an update on Cruz.

Baltimore Orioles outfielder
Tyler O'Neill is out of the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Angels. O'Neill was activated off the injured list on Friday after missing time due to a neck injury. He went 1-for-3 in that game, but will sit this one out for rest purposes. In his absence,
Heston Kjerstad and
Ryan O'Hearn will cover the corner outfield spots against right-hander
Jack Kochanowicz on Saturday. Fantasy managers should expect O'Neill to be back in the lineup on Sunday.

Toronto Blue Jays outfielder
Anthony Santander (shoulder) remains out of the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Seattle Mariners. Santander injured his shoulder during Thursday's game and as a result he'll miss his second straight game. It's worth noting that Santander could be available off the bench, which means his injury isn't too serious. Fantasy managers should consider Santander as day-to-day until further notice.
George Springer will take over as the designated hitter and bat third against right-hander
Logan Evans. Fantasy managers should adjust their lineups ahead of first pitch.

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher
Casey Mize (hamstring) has been placed on the 15-day injured list, retroactive to May 9. The right-hander was fantastic against the Colorado Rockies on Thursday. He gave up one earned run across six innings of work. However, Mize reportedly injured his hamstring during the late stages of that outing. As a result, Mize will be sidelined for a few weeks, which is a shame considering how well he has been pitching this season. The Tigers have reportedly named
Keider Montero as Tuesday's starter. If he pitches well, Montero could see more starts in the rotation while Mize is out. Fantasy managers shouldn't jump to the waiver wire to add Montero unless you're desperate for pitching in deeper leagues. He'll face the Boston Red Sox on Tuesday.

Houston Astros designated hitter
Yordan Alvarez (hand) is reportedly feeling better, but isn't ready to swing the bat yet, according to manager Joe Espada. Alvarez is currently on the injured list while he recovers from a muscle strain in his right hand. It seems unlikely at the moment that Alvarez will come off the injured list when first eligible. The 27-year-old still has a few more days to recover, but the fact he's not swinging a bat yet isn't a good sign. Fantasy managers should continue to stash Alvarez and hope he'll return in the next week or two. In the meantime, the Astros have been swapping different players at the designated hitter spot. That will likely remain the case until Alvarez returns.

Los Angeles Dodgers catcher
Will Smith will head to the bench ahead of Saturday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. This appears to be a routine rest day for Smith who has started each of the first two games of this series. As a result, Smith will take the night off and
Austin Barnes will do the catching and bat ninth versus right-hander
Corbin Burnes. Fantasy managers should adjust their lineups accordingly ahead of first pitch. The expectation is that Smith will be back in the lineup ahead of Sunday's contest.

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder
Lourdes Gurriel Jr. is out of the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Gurriel came up with a clutch hit on Friday when he blasted a game-tying grand slam and totaled five RBI in the loss. The right-handed slugger has played in 12 straight games, so he'll get a routine rest day on Saturday. As a result,
Tim Tawa will get the start in left field and bat eighth versus right-hander
Dustin May. Fantasy managers should expect Gurriel to be back in the lineup following Saturday's game.

Los Angeles Angels outfielder
Mike Trout (knee) appears to be progressing from a bone bruise that landed him on the injured list roughly a week ago. The superstar outfielder has been reportedly swinging the bat without any issues. The organization is hopeful that Trout can begin running next week. It sounds like Trout no longer has pain in his knee, which is great news. There is a chance that Trout could be available to return once eligible, but the Angels might be cautious with the oft-injured outfielder. For now, fantasy managers can continue to stash Trout on the IL and hope he returns within the next few weeks.

May 10, 2025
Los Angeles Angels outfielder
Jorge Soler (groin) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Baltimore Orioles. The right-handed slugger will miss his second game in a row after being scratched ahead of Friday's game due to what is being viewed as a minor groin issue. The organization is hopeful that Soler can return on Sunday, so fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day.
Matthew Lugo will cover left field while
Taylor Ward is at designated hitter versus right-hander
Kyle Gibson on Saturday. Fantasy managers will need to check back on Saturday for another update on Soler.
