McClanahan’s tricep issue from Saturday, post-2016 and August 2023 Tommy John surgeries, awaits nerve stabilization for a Rays re-evaluation, landing him on the IL as Zack Littell and Drew Rasmussen fill rotation gaps. Fantasy managers in all leagues should stash him, banking on his ace potential for a big 2025 return to Tampa Bay’s rotation once cleared.
