Taj Bradley Lands on 15-Day IL as Twins Shuffle Rotation

The Minnesota Twins placed right-hander Taj Bradley on the 15-day injured list with inflammation in his right pec, retroactive to May 6, and recalled Travis Adams to take his spot. Bradley has a 2.87 ERA through eight starts (47 innings) with strong strikeout efficiency, but his IL stint compounds a rotation that already includes Mick Abel and Pablo Lopez. Joe Ryan is set to return today after elbow discomfort, and with no off-day until May 21, Minnesota must cover at least one more Bradley start, likely via a bullpen game or another call-up.

Brett Baty's Fantasy Baseball Rise: Waiver Wire Pickup and Buzz-worthy Prospect.

Brett Baty, Taj Bradley, Zach Neto, Garrett Whitlock, Max Kepler, and Kyle Isbel are all potential waiver wire pickups for fantasy baseball players. Baty is a top prospect who is expected to become the Mets' starting third baseman, while Bradley has the potential to be a top-40 fantasy starter. Neto is a rookie who could see playing time as the Angels' everyday shortstop, and Whitlock is a pitcher who should be a fixture in Boston's rotation. Kepler is a good hitter who just returned from injury and is projected to have a strong rest of the season, while Isbel is a deeper league option with potential for home runs and steals.

"Jarred Kelenic's Rising Stardom in Baseball"

Jarred Kelenic is off to a hot start with a .351 batting average and three home runs, but his high strikeout rate may be cause for concern. Brad Keller continues to impress with a new curveball and faces the Rangers next week. Chris Sale has struggled in his first two starts, allowing nine hard-hit balls and should be considered a hold-and-pray option. Taj Bradley had a solid major-league debut for the Rays, striking out eight in five innings. Corey Seager is expected to miss at least four weeks with a Grade 2 hamstring strain.

Bristo, a longtime Yankees farmhand, will make his big league debut if he gets into a game with the Rays.
