The 2024 MLB season is underway and Rice baseball alums are busy on the mound and at the plate. Here’s the latest from the MLB Owls.

Tyler Duffey – Kansas City Royals

Duffey made one appearance this week, working through the eighth inning of a Royals’ win over the Detroit Tigers. He walked three but only allowed one run. It was his ninth appearance with the team this season after being called up in late April.

Through May 22, Duffey has a 5.00 ERA with a 1.667 WHIP. He’s averaging 10.0 strikeouts per nine innings.

Dane Myers – Miami Marlins

Myers got into three games with the Marlins this week, making two starts and collecting three RBI. He hit a go-ahead sacrifice fly on Tuesday against the Brewers and also added this monster home run shot on Sunday against the Mets.

Through May 22, Myers is hitting .286 with two extra-base hits, four walks and 12 strikeouts. His OPS is .864 and he’s collected eight RBI.

Injured List

J.T. Chargois – Miami Marlins

Chargois was moved to the 60-day injured list on Sunday after initially beginning the season on the 15-day injured list. He won’t be eligible to return until late May at the earliest and hasn’t pitched in the minors since April 26 in a rehab stint.

Anthony Rendon – Los Angeles Angels

Rendon is expected to miss a lengthy amount of time after suffering a partial tear in his left hamstring in late April. There is no timetable for his return as of yet, a frustrating development after a red-hot end of the month prior to suffering the injury.

Through May 2, Rendon is hitting .267 with three extra-base hits, six walks and 15 strikeouts. His OPS is .632 and he’s collected three RBI.
