Robert Gasser

MIL Starting Pitcher #85

Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinal reports the Brewers are calling up pitching prospect Robert Gasser to start Friday against the Cardinals.

Gasser seemed like he had a real shot at breaking camp in Milwaukee’s pitching mix before landing on the shelf with a bone spur in his left elbow. The 24-year-old southpaw misses plenty of bats, which gives him some appeal for fantasy managers, especially in deeper mixed leagues.
Pablo Lopez

MIN Starting Pitcher #49

Pablo López allowed just a run while striking out 10 over 6 1/3 innings in a victory over the Mariners on Thursday.

López held the M’s to four hits, didn’t walk anyone, and threw 61-of-100 pitches for strikes. The only run came on an RBI single by Luke Raley in the second, and the only reason that run was able to score was Mitch Haniger reached on a bloop-double where two Minnesota defenders ran into each other. Outside of that the right-hander continued to impress, and he lowered his ERA to 3.89 — a number that is not indicative of how well he’s pitched this year. López will be a must-start even against the Yankees next week.
Logan Gilbert

SEA Starting Pitcher #36

Logan Gilbert was shelled for eight runs in four innings while picking up a loss to the Twins on Friday.

Gilbert allowed nine hits with two walks while adding for strikeouts. To say the right-hander was a disappointment was an understatement, as he entered this outing with a sensational 1.69 ERA over 48 innings. That ERA immediately took a hit with five runs allowed in the first, and three more crossed the plate before ending his 91-pitch day. The Twins are on fire and Gilbert was due for a poor outing, but this is still not one fantasy managers could have seen coming. He’ll be back on the bump against the Royals on Tuesday.
Jung Hoo Lee

SF Center Fielder #51

Jung Hoo Lee is not in the starting lineup for Thursday’s game against the Rockies due to a sore foot.

Lee was hit in the foot after he fouled off a ball on Wednesday, so the 25-year-old will take the day off to get right. The rookie outfielder is slashing .262/.310/.331 with two homers and eight RBI across 145 plate appearances this season.
Eduardo Rodriguez

ARI Starting Pitcher #57

Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said Eduardo Rodgriguez (lat) is close to beginning a throwing program.

Good news for the 31-year-old hurler. Lovullo also added that an MRI on Rodriguez’s lat is healing, but he’s still likely a month or so away from making his season debut.
Anthony Rendon

LAA Third Baseman #6

Angels transferred Anthony Rendon (hamstring) to the 60-day injured list.

The 33-year-old veteran will miss an extended period of time after he suffered a hamstring injury a few weeks ago. The Angels are reportedly bringing in Luis Guillorme so it looks like he’ll take some reps at the hot corner as well as Miguel Sano, Luis Rengifo and Ehire Adrianza.
Luis Guillorme

LAA Second Baseman #15

Daniel Álvarez-Montes of El Extrabase reports that the Angels are acquiring Luis Guillorme from the Braves.

The 29-year-old infielder signed a one-year deal with Atlanta in the offseason and only appeared in 10 games for the Braves this season slashing .150/.190/.250 with three RBI. It has not been reported what the Braves are getting in return for Guillorme, but he’ll be additional infield depth for the Angels this season.
Jordan Hicks

SF Starting Pitcher #12

Jordan Hicks allowed three runs with five strikeouts over five innings in a win over the Rockies on Wednesday.

After a clean first inning, a triple and a wild pitch brought the first run in to score for the Rockies in the second. Hicks ran into more trouble in the fifth, giving up two runs on four hits and a walk. His day was done after five frames on 92 pitches. He struck out five. The 27-year-old right-hander has enjoyed an early breakout as a starter, posting a 2.30 ERA, 1.12 WHIP, and a 35/16 K/BB ratio across 43 innings. Hicks will take on the Dodgers in San Francisco on Monday.
Kyle Bradish

BAL Starting Pitcher #38

Kyle Bradish was outstanding in tough-luck no-decision against the Nationals on Wednesday night, racking up nine strikeouts over five stellar innings of one-run baseball.

The right-hander allowed just four hits and two walks on the night. The only run the Nationals were able to muster against him came on an RBI single by Trey Lipscomb in the second inning. Bradish got 12 swings and misses on 90 pitches on the night — five of those on his slider — while registering a CSW of 34 percent. He left the game with a 2-1 lead and in line for a victory, but the Orioles’ bullpen was unable to hang on for him. Bradish will tote an impressive 1.86 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and a 14/4 K/BB ratio (9 2/3 innings) into Tuesday’s showdown against the Blue Jays.
Chris Paddack

MIN Starting Pitcher #20

Chris Paddack allowed one run with 10 strikeouts across 5 1/3 innings in a win over the Mariners on Wednesday.

Paddack put together another solid start on Wednesday against the Mariners. He worked through three scoreless frames before Mitch Garver took him deep for a solo homer in the fourth. Paddack got out of trouble with two baserunners in the fifth, and got one out in the sixth before his day was done. He struck out 10 batters for the second time this season, generating a whopping 19 whiffs. The 28-year-old right-hander will take a 4.34 ERA, 1.50 WHIP, and a 37/8 K/BB ratio across 37 1/3 innings into a start against the Yankees in Minnesota on Tuesday.
