Cubs-Cardinals London Series officially canceled
The London Series between the Chicago Cubs and St. Louis Cardinals has been canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The series was originally scheduled for June 13-14. At this point, it's not clear if any regular season games will be played by mid-June. MLB also previously canceled the Mexico and Puerto Rico series, which had been scheduled for the end of April.
Astros' Justin Verlander (groin) on schedule, doing well
Houston Astros starting pitcher Justin Verlander (groin) is "right on schedule" and "recovering very well," according to general manager James Click.
Verlander underwent right groin surgery in the middle of March. The procedure was expected to cost him six weeks. "The last I heard, everything’s going great and he’s ready to get back out there as soon as he possibly can," Click said. "I haven’t heard anything bad." The 37-year-old right-hander should be ready whenever the season starts.
Verlander recorded a 2.58 ERA and 0.80 WHIP with 300 strikeouts and 42 walks over 223 innings last season. He went 21-6 in 34 starts.
Red Sox's Chris Sale undergoes Tommy John
Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Chris Sale underwent Tommy John surgery, per Alex Speier of the Boston Globe.
The Red Sox announced earlier this month that Sale needed the surgery, but there were scheduling complications due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The left-hander, who turned 31 today, will not be ready to return until after the start of the 2021 season.
Sale recorded a 4.40 ERA and 1.09 WHIP with 218 strikeouts and 37 walks across 147 1/3 innings last season. He went 6-11 in 25 starts.
Mets' Noah Syndergaard reportedly requires Tommy John for elbow injury
New York Mets starting pitcher Noah Syndergaard has a torn ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow and is expected to undergo Tommy John surgery in the near future, reports Jeff Passan of ESPN.
The operation will likely sideline Syndergaard until the middle of the 2021 season. Whenever the season starts, the Mets will likely have a rotation of Jacob deGrom, Marcus Stroman, Rick Porcello, Steven Matz, and Michael Wacha. Syndergaard will turn 28 in August.
Syndergaard recorded a 4.28 ERA and 1.23 WHIP with 202 strikeouts and 50 walks over 197 2/3 innings in 2019. He went 10-8 in 32 starts.
Sam Tuivailala released by Mariners
Right-handed pitcher Samuel Tuivailal was released by the Seattle Mariners on Friday.
Tuivailal dealt with a shoulder issuer that kept him from appearing in the Cactus League and may have played a part in his surprise release from the team. Assuming his shoulder doesn't hold him back, the 27-year-old shouldn't have any issue finding a new team.
Tuivailal took part in 23 games for Seattle in 2019. He faced 94 batters and recorded a 2.35 ERA, 1.04 WHIP, and 27 strikeouts.
Mets-Marlins in Puerto Rico canceled by COVID-19
The Puerto Rico series between the New York Mets and Miami Marlins, originally scheduled for April 28-30, has been canceled.
The cancelation is due to the delayed opening of the MLB season caused by the CO-VID19 pandemic. The games will be rescheduled in the home team's cities.
