| Braves reliever Chris Martin has resumed playing catch but has not yet started throwing off a mound, according to a report from The Athletic's David O'Brien. Marin has been on the injured list since April 10 with right shoulder inflammation. Mike Maher - The Birds Blitz Tue, Apr 20th | Jose Leclerc will undergo Tommy John surgery, according to Rangers GM Jon Daniels. Dan Harris Mon, Mar 29th | |
| Braves pitcher Chris Martin (shoulder) is not expected to need surgery. Brad Camara Mon, Apr 12th | Jose Leclerc is experiencing “elbow discomfort” and is expected to miss “an extended period of time.” Brad Camara Mon, Mar 22nd | |
| The Braves placed RHP Chris Martin on the 10-day IL due to shoulder inflammation. Brendan Tuma - Too Much Tuma Sat, Apr 10th | Rangers manager Chris Woodward acknowledged that Jose Leclerc will get save chances, though he isn't officially naming a closer just yet. Brendan Tuma - Too Much Tuma Fri, Feb 19th | |
| Chris Martin is listed as day-to-day after leaving Sunday's game against the Phillies as a precautionary measure when he felt some numbness in the fingers of his pitching hand. Dan Harris Mon, Apr 5th | ||
| Chris Martin entered the game against the Phillies in the eighth inning with the score tied at one-all and allowed three hits, one run (earned), and one walk before exiting with an issue with his fingers. He was tagged with the loss in the 2-1 Phillies victory. Steve Painter Sun, Apr 4th | ||
| Notes | ||
| Leclerc is dealing with elbow soreness and is now expected to miss "extended time." It's just another in the long list of things that has derailed Leclerc's career of late, after he looked like he would be the Rangers' closer for years to come after he emerged from obscurity in 2018 to become a dominant reliever and then signed a lengthy deal. After is stellar season, his walk-rate reverted to its pre-2018 numbers quickly, he lost the closer's role, and then missed almost all of last year with a shoulder injury that required surgery. With the elbow soreness, there's just no reason to draft him this year, and you can pick him up off the waiver wire when and if he returns and is named the closer. Dan Harris - FantasyPros | ||
