Rockies Put Freeland on IL as Quintana Rejoins Rotation

Colorado placed left-hander Kyle Freeland on the 15-day injured list with left shoulder inflammation (retroactive to April 13); Jose Quintana is reinstated to start tonight, with a rotation that also includes Sugano, Feltner, Dollander and Lorenzen. Freeland’s absence could jeopardize his chances of triggering a $17 million vesting option for 2027, which requires 170 innings this season, a benchmark he has reached in only two of his past seasons. The Rockies are rebuilding after a rough 2025, and Quintana slides back into Freeland’s spot to begin the current rotation.

Red Sox's Chris Sale Lands on IL with Shoulder Inflammation.

Boston Red Sox left-hander Chris Sale is heading to the injury list and will miss his next start due to left shoulder inflammation. Sale, who hasn't had an injury-free season since 2017, left Thursday night's start against Cincinnati in the fourth inning after two visits from the medical staff. The team was awaiting the results of an MRI on Friday morning, when Cora said Sale reported soreness. Sale has been to the IL in each of the last five seasons, missing all of 2020 while recovering from Tommy John surgery.
