Another week of baseball means another week full of injuries. The injuries in the past few weeks have been problematic, but at least there were some positive updates to take their return to the big leagues.

The injury bug continues to remove stars in MLB when the Houston Astros lost a key racket in its line -up. In addition, the Blue Jays in Toronto are still without a key to their rotation. Finally, a Dodgers reliever undertook poor performance in his first rehab task.

We research your injuries more in more detail and how this could affect the 2025 season.

Astros, Blue Jays and Dodgers receive bad news about a trio of stars

Yordan Alvarez, Houston Astros

The Astros slugger landed on May 5 with inflammation in his right hand. Alvarez 'diagnosis according to an MRI that was carried out on May 7th is that his right hand contains a muscle strain.

The next steps are for the 27-year-old to take the time, to relax and to rest before he can jump back into the starting line-up. So far, Alvarez has influenced this injury significantly because he has a career-loving season in terms of production. Alvarez bears an average value of 0.210 with a war of -0.4 and only three homes.

His timeline remains uncertain, although the Astros will slowly play with its recovery. Your line -up needs the best version of Alvarez, it is that you hope to take part in Al West.

Max Scherzer, Toronto Blue Jays

It was a frustrating season 2025 for the 40-year-old three-time CY-Young winner Max Scherzer. Since last season he has been dealing with a persistent thumb problem. On May 5, Scherzer was transferred to the 60-day list of injuries as part of a series of squad movements carried out by the Blue Jyas.

Scherzer can return to rotation until May 26th at the earliest. This leaves the blue Jays in a narrow point, with their security option in Triple-A, Jake only, ends up on the injury list after the imaging was carried out on his right elbow.

The veteran has not hit the hill since March 29 when he gave up two homes and was taken out of the game after three innerings. The 17-20 Blue Jays need Scherzer to return quickly and at least like a starter No. 4 behind the trio by Jose Berrios, Chris Basitt and Kevin Gausman.

Michael Kopech, Los Angeles Dodgers

Los Angeles Dodgers Reliever Michael Kopech had fights in his first appearance in Reha (May 8) with Triple-A Oklahoma City. Walks came up with the 29-year-old when he passed free pass to each of the five batteries with whom he was confronted at night.

In view of his poor performance, he has to take a few more parts on the hill in Triple-A before he can join the Dodgers Bullpen again. The injuries have charged the Dodgers Pitching employee this year, but the NL West team's first team cannot turn back a pitcher who cannot find the strike zone after a serious shoulder injury.
