Jacob Misiorowski is Optimistic to Make Next Start
Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Jacob Misiorowski (hamstring) appears to have avoided any significant injuries. The right-hander was forced to make an early exit from Friday's start against the Washington Nationals. He was pulled in the sixth inning with a no-hit bid due to right hamstring cramping. Brewers manager Pat Murphy expressed optimism that Misiorowski will be able to make his next start. He'll have some time to rest with his next outing not being until Wednesday versus the St. Louis Cardinals. Misiorowski will need to get through a bullpen session before being officially cleared to pitch. The hope is that the star right-hander won't be forced to miss any time at all. Fantasy managers will need to check back for another update ahead of Wednesday's start.

Kenley Jansen is Day-to-Day with Groin Injury
Detroit Tigers relief pitcher Kenley Jansen (groin) is considered day-to-day after picking up an injury during his most recent outing on Wednesday. Tigers manager A.J. Hinch confirmed on Saturday that Jansen is sidelined at the moment with right groin/abdomen soreness. It doesn't sound like something that will require a trip to the Injured List, but that'll depend on how he progresses. Kyle Finnegan picked up the save on Thursday. He's likely the favorite to get saves in Detroit with Will Vest (forearm) landing on the 15-day Injured List on Saturday. Fantasy managers who are looking for a source for saves should consider adding Finnegan while Jansen is out.

Brandon Nimmo is Absent with Hamstring Issue
Texas Rangers outfielder Brandon Nimmo (hamstring) is out of the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Detroit Tigers. This doesn't come as a surprise after Nimmo was forced to make an early exit from Friday's game due to a right hamstring injury. The Rangers are going to play it safe and hold out Nimmo for at least one game as a precaution. Ezequiel Duran will draw the start in right field and bat sixth versus right-hander Keider Montero on Saturday. Fantasy managers should consider Nimmo as day-to-day and should check back for another update on Sunday.

Michael Harris II is Back in the Lineup on Saturday
Atlanta Braves outfielder Michael Harris II (quad) is back in the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against the Colorado Rockies. Harris returns to the starting lineup after missing two consecutive starts due to left quad soreness. He did come off the bench and hit a go-ahead home run during Friday's win. He appears to be healthy enough to rejoin the lineup, but he'll remain at designated hitter for this one. Through 31 games, Harris is slashing .324/.358/.569 with seven homers, 22 RBI, and two steals. The 25-year-old should be rostered and started in all fantasy formats right now.
