New York Yankees infielder Jose Caballero (finger) injured his right middle finger while diving back into first base in the ninth inning of Sunday's series finale against the Milwaukee Brewers, according to Greg Joyce of the New York Post. He is undergoing an MRI exam on Monday to figure out what he's dealing with, which is why he's not in the starting lineup for Monday's series opener versus the division-rival Baltimore Orioles at Camden Yards. For what it's worth, Caballero doesn't think anything is broken. If the 29-year-old's injury requires a stint on the injured list, the Yankees will most likely recall Anthony Volpe from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre to take over everyday duties at the 6 in the Bronx. Max Schuemann will start at short and bat ninth on Monday against Orioles right-hander Brandon Young. Caballero is mostly useful for his speed (13 stolen bases) and positional versatility (he's eligible at short, second, third, and outfield in Yahoo leagues) in fantasy baseball. Going into Monday's slate, Caballero is hitting .259 (35-for-135) with four homers, 13 RBI, and 18 runs scored. Consider him day-to-day for now.

The Toronto Blue Jays announced on Monday that they placed infielder/outfielder Addison Barger (elbow) on the 10-day injured list (retroactive to May 10) with right-elbow inflammation and recalled outfielder Yohendrick Pinango from Triple-A Buffalo in a corresponding move. Barger had just returned on Saturday from an IL stint due to injuries to both of his ankles, but he ended up playing in just one game over the weekend before suffering an elbow injury. It's unclear what the severity of Barger's new injury is, but he's obviously been a big disappointment early in 2026 due to the injury bug. In just nine games played, he's hit .045 (1-for-22) with a double, two RBI, two runs scored, five walks, and seven strikeouts. Barger isn't a must-hold in mixed fantasy baseball leagues, and he's currently rostered in just 26% of Yahoo leagues. Pinango, a 24-year-old Venezuelan outfielder, is in his first MLB season. He got off to a good start in his first 10 games with Toronto, going 11-for-26 (.423) with four RBI and a run scored, and he'll now get another chance to prove himself in the Jays' outfield.

Baltimore Orioles right-handed closer Ryan Helsley (elbow) has not resumed throwing as he recovers from right-elbow inflammation that landed him on the 15-day injured list on May 1, according to Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun. The good news is that Helsley did some running drills at Camden Yards over the weekend. He will not be ready to come off the IL when he's eligible this week, so fantasy managers must remain patient with the 31-year-old veteran reliever. In his 12 appearances (10 2/3 innings) for the O's this year before his injury, Helsley went 0-2 with a 2.53 ERA, 1.31 WHIP, seven saves, 15 strikeouts, and seven walks. Helsley had a league-high 49 saves in 2024 with the St. Louis Cardinals and was named to his second All-Star team, but he struggled in 2025 after being traded to the New York Mets. He should be stashed in an IL spot while he recovers and will return to closing duties in Baltimore when he's ready. Rico Garcia has both of the team's saves since Helsley landed on the shelf, and he's the team's primary short-term option for saves.

Baltimore Orioles infielder Jackson Holliday (hand) will move his minor-league rehab assignment to Triple-A Norfolk on Tuesday, according to Jake Rill of MLB.com. Holliday restarted his rehab assignment last Thursday with Double-A Chesapeake and will now head to Triple-A as he nears his 2026 season debut with Baltimore. The 22-year-old former first overall pick had surgery back in spring training for a broken hamate bone in his hand back in spring training and had to be pulled off a rehab assignment twice due to soreness in his hand. Holliday has struggled at the plate in the minors so far this year while rehabbing, going 9-for-57 (.158) with three doubles, four RBI, three runs scored, a steal, seven walks, and 16 strikeouts in 17 games with Norfolk, Chesepeake, and High-A Frederick, but he could be reinstated from the 10-day injured list later this week as long as he doesn't have another setback with his surgically-repaired hand at Norfolk. When Holliday returns, he'll be Baltimore's everyday second baseman, making him worthy of rostering in mixed fantasy leagues. Holliday is currently rostered in only 42% of Yahoo leagues.
