Detroit optioned White to Triple-A Toledo on Sunday.

White, 24, has posted a 5.09 ERA and 44:15 K:BB through his first 40.2 major-league innings this year. Sawyer Gipson-Long is up from Triple-A Toledo in a corresponding move to start Sunday's series finale against the White Sox.

Boston optioned Jacques to Triple-A Worcester on Sunday, Rob Bradford of WEEI.com reports.

Garrett Whitlock (personal) is being activated from the bereavement list in a corresponding roster move. Jacques, 28, has registered a 5.06 ERA, 1.58 WHIP and 20:10 K:BB across his first 26.2 major-league innings this year.

The Yankees recalled Misiewicz from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Sunday.

Misiewicz was claimed off waivers from the Tigers in early July and will get his first major-league opportunity with New York after posting a 3.91 ERA and 30:12 K:BB in 25.1 innings of work for their Triple-A affiliate.

The Yankees recalled Bowman from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Sunday.

Bowman is up in the majors for the first time since 2019 after pitching to a 3.86 ERA and 55:29 K:BB across 56 innings this summer at the Triple-A level. The 32-year-old right-hander figures to operate in a middle-relief role for New York.

Weaver was designated for assignment by the Mariners on Sunday.

Weaver gave up four earned runs over 4.1 innings of bulk relief Saturday against the Rays and has now been pushed off the 40-man roster. The 30-year-old right-hander carries an ugly 6.77 ERA in 110.1 total major-league innings this season between Cincinnati and Seattle.

Seattle recalled Bazardo from Triple-A Tacoma on Sunday.

Bazardo returns as a fresh bullpen arm ahead of Sunday's series finale against the Rays. The 28-year-old right-hander has allowed five earned runs in 4.1 major-league innings this year between Baltimore and Seattle.

King did not factor into the decision Saturday, allowing two runs (one earned) on four hits and one walk over five innings against the Brewers while striking out nine.

King looked sharp against the Brewers, striking out four of the first seven batters he faced to open the contest. Two runs came across for Milwaukee in the top of the fourth, though only one was charged to King following a throwing error by DJ LeMahieu. The right-hander has now gone five innings in back-to-back starts, allowing a total of two earned runs over that stretch while posting a 13:1 K:BB.

Pressly earned a save against the Padres on Saturday, allowing a hit and issuing a walk while striking out three batters in one inning.

Pressly got the ball in the ninth inning with the Astros up two runs. The Padres sandwiched a walk and a single around a Fernando Tatis strikeout to put the tying run on base, but Pressly rebounded by striking out Manny Machado and Xander Bogaerts to escape the danger. The veteran closer thus earned his 30th save of the season, marking the second time in his career that he's reached that mark. Pressly tallied a career-best 33 saves last season.

Adam (oblique) is hoping to return from the injured list following the team's current road trip, MLB.com reports.

Adam has been sidelined since Aug. 29 and is eligible to return as soon as Sept. 14. While he may not be ready to be activated when first eligible, the team is hoping to get him back in time for a pivotal intra-division series with the Orioles beginning on the 19th. While the target date has been set, it's unclear what steps Adam has taken toward a potential return.

Newcomb allowed one hit over four scoreless innings in a no-decision against Texas on Saturday. He walked two batters and struck out five.

Newcomb hadn't pitched more than 2.1 frames in any of his five appearances coming into Saturday, so his workload was kept under control despite his effectiveness. The left-hander ended up tossing 62 pitches (41 for strikes) before turning the contest over Kyle Muller. Newcomb appears to be getting a look in Oakland's rotation, per Martin Gallegos of MLB.com, so he'll likely continue to build up his pitch count moving forward. He's been outstanding since getting called up from the minors Aug. 23, allowing just one run on three hits while posting a 15:6 K:BB over 12 innings.
