Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Brandon Marsh (hamstring) ran the bases on Tuesday and feels back to 100 percent. He'll have a rest day on Wednesday and will likely begin a minor-league rehab assignment on Thursday, according to manager Rob Thomson. This is a quick turnaround for the 27-year-old, as he was only officially placed on the 10-day injured list two days ago. It was retroactive to April 17, meaning he would be eligible to return this weekend if his rehab goes well. Hopefully this extended break will help him snap out of his early-season slump, as he's batting just .095 so far through 17 games.

Washington Nationals starting pitcher Mitchell Parker shut out the Orioles over eight innings on Tuesday in a 7-0 victory, allowing just one hit and two walks while striking out four. He has been as solid as they come to begin 2025, as this was his fifth straight quality start. He's allowed one run or less in four of his five appearances, and his ERA is now down to a minuscule 1.39 on the year. He still doesn't offer much strikeout upside with only 20 through 32 innings, but he's pitching too well right now to leave on fantasy waiver wires.

Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Javier Assad (oblique) left his rehab start early on Tuesday after grabbing at his side while warming up for the fifth inning. This certainly isn't good news for the right-hander, especially since it appears like a re-aggravation of the oblique injury that he is rehabbing. There should be more updates after he is evaluated further, but it looks like he will have to wait even longer before making his return to the major league roster.

Milwaukee Brewers catching prospect Jeferson Quero (hamstring, shoulder) has resumed baseball activities as he continues his return from multiple injuries. The Venezuelan backstop made one plate appearance last season before going down with a shoulder injury that required surgery, then suffered a hamstring injury in spring training this year. Whenever the 22-year-old gets back in the lineup, it is expected to be with Triple-A Nashville, but the Brewers' top prospect (MLB No. 44) should make his major-league debut at some point later this year. However, after missing so much time and with William Contreras locked in at catcher, there is no need to rush it. With a 16-homer campaign under his belt in just 90 games in 2023, there is some pop in his bat, so fantasy managers needing catcher help will want to monitor his progression, although he is known more for his work behind the plate than his offense.

Boston Red Sox outfield prospect Roman Anthony has reportedly been dealing with soreness in his right shoulder, which has limited Boston's top prospect (MLB No. 2) to designated hitter duties since April 11. Perhaps this has conveniently helped him focus on hitting after starting the year 6-for-34 (.176) through April 10, as the left-handed slugger has gone 14-for-34 (.412) since April 11. With a .286/.419/.543 slash line through the first 19 games, the 20-year-old is on the precipice of making his MLB debut, although the Sox will likely want to make sure he's fully healthy before bringing him up. Right fielder Wilyer Abreu has cooled significantly after his hot start, so the call may come sooner rather than later. As one of the game's top prospects and best hitters in the minors, fantasy managers in need of an offensive boost in the coming weeks should consider stashing Anthony ahead of his call-up, especially in leagues that have an NA roster spot available.
