  • Ryan Pressly RP | CHC

    Astros' Ryan Pressly: Earns save No. 27

    Pressly (undisclosed) picked up the save in Tuesday's 7-6 win over Baltimore. He struck out one over a perfect inning.

    After getting the day off Sunday, Pressly was back in action Tuesday and tossed a perfect inning for his 27th save of the campaign. After allowing one or more runs in four of his previous seven appearances, Pressly has rattled off four consecutive shutout frames. Despite the rest day, fantasy managers should expect Pressly to be fully healthy moving forward while he currently boasts the sixth-most saves in baseball and dons a 2.98 ERA through 51.1 innings of work.

  • Jalen Beeks RP | TEX

    Rays' Jalen Beeks: Draws start for bullpen game

    Beeks will serve as the Rays' opening pitcher for Wednesday's game against the Cardinals, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

    Wednesday will mark the eighth start of the season for Beeks, who holds a 6.27 ERA and 1.47 WHIP through 37.1 frames on the season. The Rays are already planning on Wednesday's contest being a bullpen game, so Beeks will likely remain in the contest only for an inning or two.

  • Trey Wingenter RP | CHC

    Tigers' Trey Wingenter: Promoted to big leagues

    The Tigers recalled Wingenter from Triple-A Toledo on Tuesday, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

    Wingenter will come up from Triple-A to take the spot of Jason Foley, who was placed on the bereavement list Tuesday. Wingenter has bounced between the minors and majors all season and holds a 6.48 ERA and 1.44 WHIP through 8.1 innings with the Tigers.

  • Jason Foley RP | SF

    Tigers' Jason Foley: Placed on bereavement list

    The Tigers placed Foley on the bereavement list Tuesday, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

    Foley will be allowed to miss up to seven games as he mourns the passing of his grandmother. Trey Wingenter will come up from Triple-A Toledo to take Foley's place in Detroit's bullpen.

  • Freddy Tarnok RP | MIA

    Athletics' Freddy Tarnok: Working in bulk role Wednesday

    Tarnok will serve as the primary pitcher for the Athletics on Wednesday against the Rangers, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

    The Athletics will likely deploy an opener in front of him, but Tarnok is slated to work multiple innings Wednesday and profiles as the Oakland pitcher most likely to factor into any decision. The 24-year-old right-hander has posted a 6.75 ERA and 10:9 K:BB through 10.2 major-league frames this season. He looks like he could get a spin in the No. 5 spot in the rotation after Oakland recently demoted Hogan Harris to Triple-A Las Vegas.

  • Taylor Hearn RP | KC

    Royals' Taylor Hearn: Recalled from Omaha

    Kansas City recalled Hearn from Triple-A Omaha on Tuesday.

    Hearn was acquired from Atlanta on July 30 and will now get a look out of Royals' bullpen. The 28-year-old left-hander has surrendered 12 earned runs in just 7.1 innings of work this season at the major-league level.

  • Jordan Romano RP | COL

    Blue Jays' Jordan Romano: Another bullpen Wednesday

    Romano (back) is scheduled to throw another bullpen session Wednesday, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.

    Romano resumed throwing off a mound over the weekend and has responded well so far. Out since late July due to lower-back inflammation, he could skip a minor-league rehab assignment and return to the Blue Jays' closer role when first eligible this Sunday. Erik Swanson and Jordan Hicks have largely been sharing ninth-inning duties in his absence.

  • Dany Jimenez RP | ATL

    Athletics' Dany Jimenez: Optioned to Triple-A

    Oakland optioned Jimenez to Triple-A Las Vegas on Tuesday.

    Jimenez allowed two earned runs over one inning of relief in Monday's loss to the Rangers. Adrian Martinez will join the Athletics as a fresh bullpen arm ahead of Tuesday's game versus Texas.

  • Athletics' Adrian Martinez: Recalled from Triple-A

    Oakland recalled Martinez from Triple-A Las Vegas on Tuesday.

    Martinez has struggled to a 5.70 ERA across 23.2 innings this season at the major-league level, but the Athletics need fresh bullpen arms as they play out the string in 2023. Dany Jimenez was optioned out in a corresponding roster move.

  • Ryder Ryan RP | LAD

    Mariners' Ryder Ryan: Recalled from Tacoma

    Seattle recalled Ryan from Triple-A Tacoma on Tuesday.

    Ryan was added to the 40-man roster last week and will now get a look with the Mariners as part of their active 26-man major-league roster. He had posted a 3.54 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 40:15 K:BB through 40.2 innings this season at the Triple-A level.
