Yankees Place Luis Gil On 60-Day Injured List

The New York Yankees placed right-hander Luis Gil (lat) on the 60-day injured list on Monday with a right-lat strain and added newly-signed left-hander Ryan Yarbrough to the 40-man roster in a corresponding move, the team announced. After missing all of the 2023 season due to Tommy John surgery, the 26-year-old Gil returned last year to go 15-7 with a 3.50 ERA (4.14 FIP), a 1.19 WHIP, a career-high 171 strikeouts and a league-high 77 walks in 151 2/3 innings over 29 starts. Despite the lack of control, Gil was named the American League Rookie of the Year. However, the increased workload -- he had never thrown more than 29 1/3 frames in the big leagues -- may have gotten to him, as he won't be able to make his 2025 debut until at least June due to a high-grade lat strain. Injuries to New York's rotation have opened up spots for both Carlos Carrasco and Will Warren.

Edward Cabrera To Pitch In Simulated Game On Wednesday

Miami Marlins right-hander Edward Cabrera (finger) will throw a bullpen session on Monday and pitch in a simulated game on Wednesday, according to MLB.com's Justin Morris. Because of a recurring blister issue on the middle finger of his right hand that cropped up during a Grapefruit League outing on March 13, Cabrera will open the 2025 season on the injured list. However, the 26-year-old wasn't shut down for long and might only miss several starts before being activated from the IL in April. The Dominican hurler has flashed intriguing stuff at times, but injuries and poor command/control have made him far too inconsistent for the likes of most fantasy managers. When healthy, though, Cabrera will be cemented into Miami's starting rotation and will be worth rostering in at least NL-only leagues in hopes that he can improve his command and stay healthy.

Connor Gillispie Makes Opening Day Rotation

The Miami Marlins announced last Friday that right-hander Connor Gillispie will open the 2025 season in the starting rotation, with right-hander Valente Bellozo and No. 13 prospect Adam Mazur the likely candidates for the fifth and final rotation spot. Miami's starting rotation is pretty beat up with Opening Day coming later this week, as both righty Edward Cabrera (finger) and lefty Ryan Weathers (forearm) will open the year on the injured list. The 27-year-old Gillispie was excellent in 12 Grapefruit League innings to secure a spot in the rotation, sporting a 0.75 ERA with six K's and three walks. He made his big-league debut in 2024 with the Guardians, allowing two earned runs while walking five and fanning eight in just eight relief innings. Because he's inexperienced and could only be a short-term rotation option in Miami, Gillispie is only worth looking at in deep NL-only affairs.

Sal Frelick Back In The Lineup Monday

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Sal Frelick (calf) will return to the team's lineup on Monday for their spring training finale against the Colorado Rockies. The 24-year-old has been out of action since last Tuesday after experiencing mild calf soreness. Fortunately for him, he only missed a handful of games due to the discomfort. It's good news for the former first-round pick, who is projected to hold down right field for the Brewers again in 2025. Frelick hit just two home runs a season ago in 145 games. However, he's been astounding this spring, garnering an impressive .359/.432/.538 triple-slash with eight RBI, four steals, and two long balls. Known for his hit tool in the minors, if the Gold-Glove-winning outfielder can increase his in-game power, he may significantly impact fantasy in 2025.

Nico Hoerner To Be Ready For Opening Day

Patrick Mooney of The Athletic notes that Chicago Cubs second baseman Nico Hoerner (forearm) is expected to be ready for Opening Day. Hoerner has been recovering from surgery for his flexor tendon since last October, holding him to only two Cactus League appearances this spring. The 27-year-old played in his first outings over the weekend, going 1-for-6 with a single. He's hit just 26 home runs over the prior three seasons combined but has been an excellent source of batting average and steals when healthy. Additionally, he's struck out 12.1% of the time or less since 2022. The former first-round pick hit 35 doubles in 2024 -- the highest mark of his six-year career.
