As we continue to move through July, the MLB injury report becomes very prevalent to fantasy managers and General Managers alike. Injuries to key pieces for potential contenders could push them to make a move at the MLB Trade Deadline later this month.

As we head into the MLB All-Star break, many players will get a few free days to rest up some bumps and bruises, and other teams will be eagerly awaiting returns from some key assets. Fantasy baseball managers needing some pitching help should be excited to see that Clayton Kershaw and Robbie Ray are expected to be activated from the IL shortly after the break. Additionally, Kodai Senga might not be too far behind.

As we emerge from the All-Star break, we are slowly approaching the MLB trade deadline, which is sure to have quite the ripple effect for our fantasy teams. However, before we see who the fantasy baseball risers and fallers from the deadline were, we have quite a few notable injuries to discuss this week.

We have a relatively lengthy MLB injury report here, featuring many prominent, big-name players. The New York Mets were thrilled to get Kodai Senga back in its rotation, but he’ll head back to the injured list and likely miss the rest of the season due to a calf strain.

The fantasy baseball season continues to march on, and for the Texas Rangers starting rotation, it’s the classic story of give and take. While Max Scherzer is heading to the injured list with shoulder fatigue, Tyler Mahle is expected to make his season debut on Tuesday against Houston.

The Minnesota Twins and Baltimore Orioles were dealt tough blows to their respective starting rotations, as Joe Ryan and Grayson Rodriguez both hit the injured list with strains of the teres major muscle.

Depending on your fantasy baseball league’s setup, you could be now entering the playoffs, or maybe you’re heading down the home stretch of the regular season. Nonetheless, we need to stay on top of the latest MLB injury report for the big leagues so we can set our lineups accordingly!

The Los Angeles Dodgers and Houston Astros can’t wait for the calendar to flip to September, as they are anticipating returns for Yoshinobu Yamamoto and Kyle Tucker respectively.

Yes, fantasy football is right around the corner, but you’ve poured blood, sweat and tears into your fantasy baseball teams dating back to the winter months of this year! If your team is still competing for a fantasy baseball championship, or you are fighting for playoff contention, this week’s fantasy baseball injury report has plenty of key information to help you set your lineups and dominate your competition.
