MLB Player Injuries - Impact on MLB Teams

Jonathan Loáisiga of the New York Yankees is listed as day-to-day. He was previously recovering from a right UCL tear earlier this season. It is unclear if this current situation is linked to his earlier elbow issues.

This season, Loáisiga has appeared in 15 games. He has pitched 16 1/3 innings with a 2.75 ERA and a WHIP of 1.04. He has recorded 15 strikeouts and issued 5 walks.

The Arizona Diamondbacks have not noted any other injuries in the past few weeks. With Vargas out, the team will need to adjust their lineup. In recent games, the Diamondbacks had victories over the Chicago White Sox, winning 4-1 and 10-0.

Max Scherzer is expected to make his next start despite being on the 60-day injured list for right thumb inflammation. This season, he has pitched 3 innings with an ERA of 6.00 and a WHIP of 1.00 in one game. He has recorded 1 strikeout without issuing a walk in the regular season.

Earlier in the season, Scherzer also dealt with right thumb inflammation in May and June. In spring training, he pitched 13 innings, striking out 18 batters with an ERA of 1.39 and a WHIP of 0.46. Scherzer's next game is against the Cleveland Guardians on June 25, 2025.

Kenley Jansen has played in 30 games this season, pitching 26 2/3 innings. He has one win and two losses with a 4.39 ERA. Jansen has secured 15 saves and struck out 25 batters with a WHIP of 1.31.

Josh Naylor has been performing well despite recent shoulder issues. He has a .303 batting average this season with 87 hits in 287 at-bats. Naylor has hit 9 home runs and driven in 51 runs so far.

Over the last 10 games, Naylor has maintained a strong .405 average. This includes 15 hits in 37 at-bats. He is currently on a streak, recording at least one hit in 11 straight games. As the team prepares for the game against the White Sox, Naylor's availability remains uncertain.

Eugenio Suárez has had a productive 2025 season with the Arizona Diamondbacks. He has participated in 78 games, starting 76 of them. Suárez has achieved a batting average of .251, with 25 home runs and 67 RBIs.

In recent games, Suárez has shown solid performance. Over the last 5 games, he has maintained a .316 average, hitting 2 home runs and driving in 7 runs. This recent streak highlights his ability to deliver in key situations for his team.

Max Meyer, a pitcher for the Miami Marlins, pitched in 12 games this season. He recorded a 4.73 ERA over 64 2/3 innings with a WHIP of 1.42. Meyer struck out 68 batters while walking 20, resulting in a K/9 rate of 9.5.

Earlier in the 2025 season, Meyer was placed on the injured list twice due to the same hip issue. Both times, he was expected to return mid-July, but surgery now means he will not play again this year. His last game was against the Colorado Rockies on June 2, where he pitched 5 innings and gave up 4 earned runs.

Keibert Ruiz has played 66 games this season, starting in 62 of them. He has collected 61 hits out of 247 at-bats, giving him a batting average of .247. Ruiz has managed to hit 2 home runs and drive in 24 runs.

In his last 30 games, Ruiz's performance has dipped with a batting average of .175. He struggled in his recent games, going hitless over his last three outings. Despite the slump, his season-long on-base percentage stands at .278, with a slugging percentage of .320.

Keibert Ruiz has played 66 games this season, with 62 starts. He has collected 61 hits in 247 at-bats, leading to an average of .247. He has contributed 24 RBIs and hit 2 home runs.

In his recent games, Ruiz has struggled to find his rhythm at the plate. Over the last 15 games, his average is .143, with 8 hits in 56 at-bats. His on-base percentage in this span is also low at .143.

Pedro León remains on the 60-day injured list due to a left knee MCL strain. This injury has kept him out of all games this regular season, so there are no current stats to report for him. The Astros have had to adjust their lineup without him.

In recent weeks, León has been consistently dealing with the same knee issue. This has prevented him from contributing on the field since the start of the season. The Astros face the Philadelphia Phillies next, and they will play without León in the lineup once again.
