Gleyber Torres Exits After Just Four Innings
7 years agoThe New York Yankees are dealing with another possible injury and it involves their star rookie infielder. Gleyber Torres sat out Tuesday’s game against the Atlanta Braves as he continues to deal with a recurring injury to his right hip. While manager Aaron Boone seemed optimistic about it, he did state that the 21-year-old deals with the problem periodically. On Wednesday, he was inserted back into the starting lineup, but after two strikeouts in four innings, he was pulled from the game, as Brandon Drury entered the game at third base, moving Neil Walker over to second.

Gleyber Torres Placed On 10-Day Injured List With Oblique Strain
7 days agoThe Detroit Tigers announced on Monday that they placed infielder Gleyber Torres (oblique) on the 10-day injured list (retroactive to March 29) with a left-oblique strain and recalled infielder/outfielder Justyn-Henry Malloy from Triple-A Toledo in a corresponding move. Torres suffered what the team was calling a rib injury on Friday in the loss to the Los Angeles Dodgers, and he sat out of Saturday's series finale at Dodger Stadium as a result. It's a tough break for the 28-year-old Venezuelan to start his first year in Detroit, but the injury wasn't believed to be very severe, so hopefully he'll be able to come off the IL when eligible. With Torres sidelined on Saturday, Colt Keith moved to the keystone and Spencer Torkelson manned first base. That should be the setup moving forward with Torres on the shelf. Malloy will provide depth for a beat-up Tigers outfield.

Gleyber Torres To Miss Saturday's Game
1 week agoDetroit Tigers second baseman Gleyber Torres (ribs) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Torres was removed early during Friday's game due to rib injury. This doesn't appear to be something that will land Torres on the injured list. For now, fantasy managers should consider Torres as day-to-day. Colt Keith will cover second base and bat fifth against right-hander Roki Sasaki. Keith is hitless during his first two games of the season and doesn't have an easy challenge in first of him. He's worth rostering in deep leagues or AL-only formats, but doesn't have great streaming value on Saturday.

Gleyber Torres Dealing With Rib Pain
1 week agoDetroit Tigers second baseman Gleyber Torres (rib) said that he's had some rib pain over the last few days and felt more sore than normal on Friday, especially on his home run against the Los Angeles Dodgers, which was an unusual swing on a pitch way inside, according to MLive's Evan Woodbery. Torres tried to play through the discomfort for a few innings on Friday night at Dodger Stadium for a few innings before deciding to call it a day on Day 2 of the regular season. He said he's already feeling much better after a round of post-game treatment, although it remains to be seen if he'll be back in the starting lineup on Saturday. It sounds like the 28-year-old's injury isn't all that serious, but fantasy managers will want to check to make sure Torres is playing this evening. If he misses some time, Zack McKinstry, Colt Keith and Andy Ibanez are all candidates to play second base.

Gleyber Torres Homers, Departs Early With Side Injury
1 week agoDetroit Tigers second baseman Gleyber Torres (side) hit a solo home run in the third inning of Friday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers at Dodger Stadium, but he was then pulled in the sixth inning due to a side injury. Torres was seen grabbing at his left side while rounding the bases after his home run, and he was later replaced at the keystone by Zack McKinstry, with Javier Baez entering the game to play third base. The 28-year-old went 1-for-2 with a walk before leaving early with what could be a dreaded oblique injury. For now, fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day, but this is certainly an injury that could land Torres on the injured list. If that ends up being the case, McKinstry, Colt Keith and Andy Ibanez would all be options to move to the keystone. If Keith is moved to second, Spencer Torkelson, who homered on Opening Day would move to first base.
