Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Alek Manoah (shoulder) allowed seven runs (six earned) on five hits across 1 2/3 innings of work at Single-A Dunedin on Sunday afternoon. He walked four batters and threw just 26 of 58 pitches for strikes. It was a disastrous start for the right-hander as he attempts to return to the Blue Jays starting rotation. Manoah will get a few more rehab starts to iron out the kinks over the next couple weeks. Fantasy managers in deep leagues can utilize an IL-spot on Manoah if so inclined, but it does not seem like he will be able to recapture the form that made him a fantasy star in 2022.

Boston Red Sox shortstop Trevor Story (shoulder) may not be able to return this season after suffering a serious injury on Friday. The 31-year-old said he has hopes for playing again in 2024 but emotionally acknowledged that there is no guarantee. Story is already on the 10-day injured list and will visit a specialist on Monday to determine if there's any labrum damage in his shoulder. Regardless, it already seems like he will be out for a heavily extended period of time. In his absence, infielder David Hamilton was called up from Triple-A Worcester. Fantasy managers in need of speed could look to add the 26-year-old as he stole 57 bases in the minors last season.

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Walker Buehler (elbow) allowed two hits across 4 2/3 scoreless innings in a rehab start with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Saturday. He struck out six batters without issuing a walk and touched 95.3 MPH on his fastball. The 29-year-old's first rehab outing wasn't the prettiest, but this was a far more impressive showing. The current plan is for Buehler to make a couple more rehab starts before joining the Dodgers staff in late April. There's no guarantee that Buehler recaptures his former SP1 status, but he should definitely be stashed in all fantasy formats.

New York Mets designated hitter J.D. Martinez (body) will not join the team for their upcoming series against the Atlanta Braves, according to manager Carlos Mendoza. The veteran slugger is reportedly dealing with general body soreness and will get the next few days off. Martinez was signed late in the offseason and seems to be getting back into game shape, but the process is taking longer than expected. While there are some injury concerns, the 36-year-old should be able to provide solid power for fantasy teams whenever he makes his debut.

Colorado Rockies outfielder Kris Bryant (back) will return to the starting lineup and bat fourth for Sunday's showdown with the Tampa Bay Rays. The veteran missed Saturday's game with a stiff lower back but clearly the ailment wasn't severe. Bryant has scuffled at the plate in the early going, slashing a dismal .120/.267/.240 with one home run and three RBI through seven games. Fantasy managers can hold a little longer in hopes that the former MVP turns things around, but he is approaching droppable territory if the cold streak persists.
