As the 2025 MLB season approaches its climax, savvy fantasy managers are looking for injured players to stash for a playoff push. The article highlights 25 players currently on the IL, all rostered in less than 65% of leagues, who could provide significant returns if they recover in time. Shane McClanahan and Bryce Miller are two key pitchers to monitor, alongside sluggers like Rhys Hoskins and Dylan Crews, both of whom are projected to return soon.

Shane Bieber, now with the Blue Jays, is an intriguing stash due to his potential to regain past Cy Young form. Meanwhile, players like Cristian Javier and Alek Manoah present high-risk, high-reward scenarios, making them worth considering for more adventurous fantasy players. Monitoring their rehab timelines closely could pay off in the final weeks of the season as rosters solidify for playoff contention.
