Red Sox SS prospect Marcelo Mayer went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer on Tuesday for Triple-A Worcester.

2 weeks ago

Mayer’s fifth-inning round-tripper came against former big-league lefty Anthony Gose. It traveled 401 feet to right field and left his bat at 103.5 mph. The 22-year-old shortstop tends to get overshadowed by fellow elite prospects Roman Anthony and Kristian Campbell, but he’s going to make some noise for fantasy managers once he reaches the big leagues later this year.

6 minutes ago

Sam Hauser (ankle) is out for Game 4 against the Knicks on Monday.

29 minutes ago

While Hauser was listed as questionable for Game 4 with an ankle injury, he hasn’t seen any game action since leaving early in Game 1 of the series. Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla turned to Payton Pritchard for a series-high 35 minutes off the bench in Game 3 as the Celtics got back in the series with a 22-point victory. It wouldn’t be a surprise to see that recipe for success replicated in Game 4.

George Kirby (shoulder) is expected to make another minor league rehab start.

42 minutes ago

Kirby looked sharp on Saturday in his second rehab outing for Triple-A Tacoma, striking out five batters and throwing 54 pitches (36 strikes) over three innings. The 27-year-old fantasy ace is expected to need one final tune-up before rejoining Seattle’s rotation for his season debut in late May.

Kumar Rocker (shoulder) threw a 26-pitch bullpen session on Monday.

47 minutes ago

Rangers manager Bruce Bochy told reporters Rocker felt good during the session and could progress to facing hitters in a live batting practice session in the coming days. The 25-year-old righty hit the injured list back in late April with a shoulder impingement and isn’t expected back until sometime in June.

Diamondbacks released RHP Brandon Bielak.

50 minutes ago

Bielake underwent season-ending shoulder surgery last month and is expected to be ready for next year’s spring training, according to Steve Adams of MLB Trade Rumors. The 29-year-old righty, who has made 76 appearances (21 starts) in the majors between the Astros and Athletics since 2020, signed a minor league contract with Arizona back in late February.

Willy Adames has been moved down to the sixth spot in the lineup for Monday’s game against the Diamondbacks.

55 minutes ago

Giants manager Bob Melvin has finally decided to shake things up with Adames hitting just .217/.297/.335 with four homers, 19 RBI and two steals through 41 games in his San Francisco debut. It’ll be Matt Chapman and Heliot Ramos hitting second and third, respectively, with Jung Hoo Lee in the cleanup spot. The hope for fantasy managers is that the move will reduce some of the pressure on Adames and help get him going at the dish. He’s too talented to continue flailing, especially since his plate skills and underlying batted ball metrics remain mostly in line with previous seasons.
