Jose Ramirez – Cleveland Guardians

Ramírez jammed his right wrist while trying to steal a base in the third inning and left the game in the sixth. Ramirez was not in the Guardians lineup on Sunday. The Guardians hope the six-time All-Star’s injury isn’t serious. Manager Stephen Vogt called it a “mild” sprain after the game and said that Ramírez is day to day.

Max Scherzer – Toronto Blue Jays

Scherzer was placed on the 15-day IL with right thumb inflammation. The move comes just one day after the three-time Cy Young Award winner exited his Toronto debut after three innings due to soreness in his right lat. After Saturday’s game, Scherzer said, "This thumb is absolutely critical to your arm health. I got to get this 100% before I pitch again." Scherzer has dealt with a plethora of injuries over the past three seasons, combining for only 36 starts.

Josh Lowe – Tampa Bay Rays

Rays placed outfielder Josh Lowe on the 10-day injured list Saturday due to a strained right oblique. Lowe was injured in Friday’s opener, a year after missing 46 games with a similar issue. Manager Kevin Cash said Lowe will be out for “multiple weeks” “I don’t really want to put a number out there on how long it’s going to take, but it is a little worse than what happened last year,” Lowe said

Coltson Cowser - Baltimore Orioles

Cowser fractured his left thumb sliding into first on Sunday and was placed on the 10-day IL. He’s expected to miss 6–8 weeks. Cowser now joins a growing list of key O’s on the IL, including Gunnar Henderson (rib strain), Grayson Rodriguez (elbow), and Andrew Kittredge (knee surgery).

Jerar Encarnacion – San Francisco Giants

Encarnacion will have surgery Monday on his broken left hand after Encarnacion was injured diving for a catch Friday. The club announced that Encarnacion is expected to miss approximately eight weeks and will be in a splint for two weeks before beginning his rehabilitation process, which will likely sideline him until at least June. He hit .302 with 2 homers and 14 RBIs this spring after batting .248 with 5 homers and 19 RBIs in 2024 in only 113 at bats.

Aaron Civale - Milwaukee Brewers

The Brewers placed Aaron Civale on the 15-day IL with a left hamstring strain after he exited Sunday’s start vs. the Yankees in the third inning. He struggled early, giving up a homer to Aaron Judge after three straight three-ball counts to open the game. The Brewers' rotation is already without Tobias Myers, Aaron Ashby, DL Hall, Brandon Woodruff, and Robert Gasser.
