Domingo German is a top-rated starting pitcher for his home start versus the Orioles.

ATL has a new closer but Mark Melancon did not have much success in his first appearance after being anointed. Plus, JaCoby Jones injured, Drew Steckenrider out for season, Nick Vincent signs with PHI, and Tayron Guerrero on IL.

Injuries mount in MIN, innings up for grabs in DET, evaluating the youngsters in KC, Jake Bauers demoted in CLE, and Ryan Goins making the most of it for CHW.

JaCoby is done, Giles may miss some time, and Soto may be okay. Earlier: Yandy and Riley could be done; Healy is. Price is a big question mark, plus Verdugo, Yelich, and Bruce. Even earlier: Cano is done for the year. Also, Yonny is out for a month, while O'Neill and Kimbrel could be back soon.

James Paxton, Zack Greinke, Jose Suarez, and Joey Lucchesi headline the "Strong Start" tier.

Gio Urshela and Mike Tauchman lit it up last week, and NYY's eight-game schedule this week hints at more production to come.

Jose Suarez kicks off his week with an excellent matchup against the Pirates, and should provide a healthy dose of strikeouts this week.

The hot-hitting Bo Bichette looks to get more chances in the TOR lineup with an injury to Lourdes Gurriel. Plus, Gary Sanchez and Dee Gordon activated, setback for Yandy Diaz, and Mitch Keller to start Monday.

Justin Verlander, Jacob deGrom and Luis Castillo are the top picks for Sunday.

Free-agent 2B Joe Panik finds a second life with the Mets. Plus, Nelson Cruz hits IL, Jay Bruce returns to IL, bad news for Ryan Borucki, Giants shuffle roster, Ryan Pressly activated, and more.

Rowdy Tellez has made good use of his demotion to AAA-Buffalo. If he returns, how might that shake up the playing time picture in TOR? Also: Stewart's opportunity in BAL, rotation woes in BOS and TAM, overachievers' job security in NYY.
