Ronald Acuña Jr., Spencer Strider, and Shane McClanahan are pivotal MLB players currently dealing with injuries, impacting fantasy rosters across the board. Acuña, after winning the NL MVP in 2023, faced a tough 2024 season due to a torn ACL, but is making strides toward a return, with a strong Triple-A performance suggesting he'll be back soon. Strider, who has shown tremendous strikeout potential, is back on the mound after a brief hamstring issue. Meanwhile, McClanahan's road to recovery from Tommy John surgery has been slower, and while he’s been cleared to throw, fantasy owners might need to be patient with his timeline.
