​In this week’s Injury Report, starting pitchers took some hits across baseball. The Rays lost Griffin Jax to an elbow injury. Nathan Eovaldi also went down with elbow inflammation. And Hunter Greene’s season is over as he’s set to undergo elbow surgery. Meanwhile, the Dodgers will welcome back Blake Snell on Tuesday against the Royals. All that and more as we highlight all of the most relevant injury news around baseball.⚾️ Baseball is back! MLB returns to NBC and Peacock in 2026!

Jax was scratched from his scheduled start on Saturday against the Mariners with right elbow soreness and placed on the 15-day injured list with elbow discomfort. The 31-year-old right-hander will get a second opinion, something that rarely foretells anything good. Jax has strived since moving from the bullpen and into the starting rotation, with a 3.16 ERA across 82 2/3 innings as a starter. Keep a lookout for an update in the coming days, but fantasy managers should probably be prepared to be without Jax the rest of the way.

,Nathan Eovaldi (elbow)Another brutal blow to fantasy managers, and one that seemingly came out of nowhere. Eovaldi was placed on the 15-day injured list on Monday with right posterior elbow inflammation. This comes just days after he allowed one run across 5 1/3 innings against the Orioles on Friday. Look out for an update on Eovaldi’s status in the next day or two.Devin Williams (shoulder)After he was deemed unavailable to pitch last Wednesday due to arm fatigue, Williams returned to the mound on Friday and gave up two runs in a non-save situation against the Pirates. On Monday, the Mets placed the 31-year-old right-hander on the 15-day injured list with a right shoulder strain. There’s no timeline for a return. Williams’ first season with the Mets has been nothing short of a disappointment, with a 4.66 ERA and 1.66 WHIP across 38 2/3 innings. Despite strong underlying skills, he just hasn’t been able to find success in New York, posting a 4.79 ERA with the Yankees in 2025. With Williams on the shelf, the Mets could turn to Daniel Duarte and Kodai Senga to close out games.Hunter Greene (elbow)Greene didn’t make his season debut until July 4 following surgery in March to have bone chips removed from his right elbow. Five starts in, he landed back on the 15-day injured list last week with right elbow soreness. After a visit with renowned surgeon
