Dallas Keuchel (neck) could return to Astros' rotation next weekend
Houston Astros starting pitcher Dallas Keuchel (neck) gave up three hits and one run over five strong innings Saturday in a rehab start for Low-A Quad Cities.
The start is expected to be Keuchel's last rehab appearance. If he makes it through a bullpen session mid-week, he will likely be activated to start next weekend versus the Detroit Tigers.
Through 11 starts, Keuchel was 9-0 with a 1.67 ERA, 0.87 WHIP, and 69 strikeouts in 75 1/3 innings pitched this season.
Giants' Johnny Cueto (blister) still not throwing
San Francisco Giants pitcher Johnny Cueto has yet to resume throwing as he recovers from blisters on his throwing hand.
Cueto isn't rushing his return, but he doesn't have any reason to. At 37-61, the Giants are 29 1/2 back of first place and will likely miss the playoffs for the second time in three years. While he's likely to return this season, it could be a while before we see Cueto toeing the rubber again.
We project Cueto for a 2-2 record, 4.50 ERA and 31 strikeouts across 40 innings the rest of this season.
Nationals' Ryan Raburn to be placed on bereavement list
Washington Nationals outfielder Ryan Raburn is set to go on the team's bereavement list tomorrow, according to MASN Sports' Mark Zuckerman.
Raburn is available off the bench Saturday, but is unlikely to see action after the passing of his grandfather. Chris Heisey is starting in his place tonight and could continue to do so in the next few games.
Our numbers have Raburn at 1 home run, 5 RBI and a .217 average for the remainder of the 2017 campaign.
Marlins-Reds expected to start at 8:05
Saturday's game between the Miami Marlins and Cincinnati Reds is expected to start around 8:05pm ET.
The game hasn't been delayed due to rain, but has taken precautionary measures with thunderstorms in the surrounding areas. They're going to give it a go shortly after 8:00 local time.
According to Fantasy Alarm, there's just a 15% chance of rain until 10:00pm. After that, the forecast calls for chances of precipitation of 56% and 74% for 10:00 and 11:00, respectively.
Braves' Brandon Phillips (hamstring) out again Saturday
Atlanta Braves second baseman Brandon Phillips (hamstring) is out of the lineup Saturday against the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Phillips tweaked his hamstring on Thursday and will now have missed two games with the injury. It is not considered serious as Phillips is optimistic he will be available to play on Sunday. Johan Camargo will make another start at second base on Saturday.
Phillips has scored 47 runs while posting a .294 batting average so far and is projected, by our models, for 31 more runs scored in 246 plate appearances the rest of the season.
Starlin Castro (hamstring) placed on the Yankees' DL
The New York Yankees have placed second baseman Starlin Castro (hamstring) on the 10-day DL, per Erik Boland of Newsday Sports.
Castro didn't even make it a week without returning the DL. He missed 13 games with a hamstring strain at the beginning of the month and may be sidelined longer this time. Tyler Wade was called up from Triple-A in a corresponding move. Ronald Torreyes is starting at second base Saturday.
Castro has slugged 12 home runs with 45 RBI while posting a .307 batting average in 337 plate appearances this season.
