Fantasy baseball managers should keep an eye on several injured players who are poised to return soon, offering potential value late in the season. Jared Jones, a promising starting pitcher for the Pittsburgh Pirates, is currently rostered in 53% of Yahoo leagues and is expected to return in early July. His impressive rookie season included a solid ERA and strikeouts, making him a worthy stash if you have an IL spot.

Lucas Giolito, now with the Boston Red Sox and only 6% rostered, is set to return on May 1. Despite a rough 2023, his strikeout potential makes him a valuable addition. Brandon Marsh of the Philadelphia Phillies, back from injury, had a productive previous season and will bolster a strong lineup. Paul DeJong with the Nationals can provide depth, while Thairo Estrada from the Rockies, playing in Coors Field, holds upside for power.
