Keaschall was off to an excellent start in the majors before suffering a right forearm fracture that sent him to the injured list back in late April. The 22-year-old top prospect should be ready to kick off a minor league rehab assignment at some point in the coming days. He should make it back to Minnesota’s lineup by the end of July, if not sooner.

Matthews is getting close to heading out on a rehab assignment as he continues to make steady progress with his throwing program. The 25-year-old pitching prospect has been out since June 8 recovering from a shoulder strain. He’ll need a handful of minor league outings before he rejoins Minnesota’s rotation mix, but he’s on track to potentially make it back before the end of July.

Buxton made the announcement on his Instagram page on Monday afternoon. The Georgia native becomes the fourth confirmed participant, joining Braves icon Ronald Acuña Jr., Mariners mashing backstop Cal Raleigh and Nationals burgeoning star James Wood. The 31-year-old center fielder has crushed 20 homers already this season and is on pace to threaten the 40-homer plateau for the first time in his career.

Twins athletic trainer Nick Paparesta said that “things are progressing nicely” for López, who was placed on the IL with a Grade 2 Teres Major strain retroactive to June 4. The inflammation in his shoulder is now totally gone, but the Twins are being cautious not to rush him back. “We need to do the best thing we can for him for the long term and not just worry about the short term,” said Paparesta. “Strengthen him up and make sure his range of motion gets back to where we want it to be. Then look to get him into some throwing activity next week.”

Alvarez remains shut down from hitting after receiving injections last week to address lingering pain in his right hand that is unrelated to the hand fracture he’s been recovering from. There should be a clearer return timetable from the Astros at some point after next week’s All-Star Game. It’s been a frustrating situation for fantasy managers.

This was hinted at by Mets manager Carlos Mendoza over the weekend and has now come to fruition. With Starling Marte dealing with a knee injury, the Mets could choose to use Winker (oblique) right away as a designated hitter against right-handed pitching. While we don’t yet know what the corresponding move is, we do know that Ronny Mauricio will not be sent down to Triple-A, so that gives him more chances to carve out playing time in 2025.
