Injuries continue to plague key players in the 2025 MLB season, impacting both real and fantasy teams. Key updates include Miami Marlins' Xavier Edwards, Philadelphia Phillies' Aaron Nola, and Baltimore Orioles' Jordan Westburg. Edwards is recovering from a back strain and may return soon, while Nola, who has struggled with a right ankle sprain, faces an extended absence. Westburg, the only one to experience a setback in rehab from a hamstring injury, is uncertain for an early return.

Edwards was hitting .263 and stealing bases effectively before his injury, positioning him as a valuable asset upon return. Nola's early-season struggles raise questions about his effectiveness post-injury, while Westburg's disappointing performance prior to his IL stint diminishes his fantasy value. Each player's absence significantly influences their respective team's dynamics, necessitating astute management in fantasy leagues.
