Denard Span - OF - Nationals

Denard Span (concussion) could return from the concussion disabled list on Saturday.

Span first has to make it through rehab games on Thursday and Friday. He was placed on the 7-day concussion disabled list April 12 after a collision with Braves infielder Dan Uggla. All reports so far have been good.

Doug Fister - S - Nationals

Doug Fister (lat) headed to extended spring training in Viera, Florida on Wednesday.

Fister will begin working on a five-day throwing schedule, beginning with two simulated innings on Thursday. He'll then throw three simulated innings five days after, and a rehab assignment could follow that workout. Fister should join the Nationals around early May and will be a front-line fantasy starter once he is activated.

Brad Peacock - R - Astros

Brad Peacock will start Sunday against the A's.

Peacock opened the 2014 regular season in the Houston bullpen but will take over the rotation spot left vacant by Lucas Harrell, who was designated for assignment after getting rocked Tuesday by the Royals. Peacock is not good fantasy option, even with the upgraded role.

Craig Kimbrel - R - Braves

Craig Kimbrel (shoulder) threw a 15-pitch bullpen session Wednesday and declared himself "ready."

According to David O'Brien of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, manager Fredi Gonzalez was "noncommittal" about using Kimbrel on Wednesday night because of the cold weather in Philadelphia. Kimbrel has been unavailable the past two games with mild shoulder soreness.

James Jones - OF - Mariners

Mariners recalled OF James Jones from Triple-A Tacoma.

Jones is a .282/.363/.440 career hitter in the minor leagues with decent power and good speed, but the 25-year-old probably won't play enough to carry fantasy relevance. When he gets into a game, it'll be his major league debut.
Apr 16 - 4:39 PM
Blake Beavan - S - Mariners

Mariners placed RHP Blake Beavan on the 15-day disabled list with a right shoulder injury.

Beavan left his start Tuesday night against the Rangers after experiencing tightness in his throwing shoulder. It's not yet known how long he might be sidelined.
Apr 16 - 4:38 PM
Shane Greene - S - Yankees

Yankees recalled RHP Shane Greene from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

Greene will be the Yankees' 26th man for the second half of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Cubs. The reliever will be optioned back to Triple-A after the game.
Apr 16 - 4:35 PM
Zach Rosscup - R - Cubs

Cubs recalled LHP Zach Rosscup from Triple-A Iowa.

Rosscup will serve as the Cubs' 26th man for the second half of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Yankees. He'll function as left-handed relief depth.
