The Rangers designated Jackson for assignment Wednesday.

Jackson still leads the Rangers with nine saves this season, but he has posted an uninspiring 4.11 ERA, 1.46 WHIP and 24:19 K:BB over 35 innings. The right-hander is under contract at a manageable $1.5 million salary, so he could attract some interest via trade or waivers. Even if he quickly finds a home in a new organization, Jackson is unlikely to earn usage in high-leverage spots out of the bullpen, at least not right away.

The Athletics selected Bowden's contract from Triple-A Las Vegas on Wednesday, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

Bowden earned a promotion by putting up a 1.36 ERA and 41:18 K:BB over 39.2 innings at Las Vegas. The left-handed reliever's lone action in the majors to this point came with the Rockies in 3032, when he collected a 6.56 ERA over 39 appearances.

The Athletics optioned Harris to Triple-A Las Vegas on Wednesday, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

Harris has coughed up 12 runs (10 earned) over his last 14 innings to earn a trip back to the minors. His spot on the 26-man active roster and in the bullpen will be absorbed by lefty Ben Bowden, who was recalled from Triple-A.

The Twins recalled Adams from Triple-A St. Paul on Wednesday.

Adams is taking the roster spot vacated by David Festa (shoulder), who was placed on the 15-day injured list. The right-hander could slide into Festa's rotation spot this weekend versus the Nationals if he's not needed in relief before then. Bailey Ober (hip) is likely to return from the IL next week, so Adams could be in line for just one start if he enters the rotation. Adams has struggled in three relief outings with the big club this season, yielding seven runs (six earned) with a 6:1 K:BB over nine innings.

Eder will likely be used in bulk relief behind opening pitcher Brock Burke in Wednesday's game against the Mets, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

Other than closer Kenley Jansen, Eder is the Halos' freshest arm in the bullpen, as he hasn't been used since he covered three innings of long relief in Friday's 6-5 win over the Phillies. The Angels treated that game as a bullpen day with reliever Ryan Zeferjahn working the opening frame, and a similar arrangement could unfold Wednesday with Burke unlikely to cover more than an inning or two. Eder thus looks like a good bet to cover multiple frames in relief, but it's unclear if the Angels are seriously considering moving him into the rotation. He's had mixed results through his first seven outings out of the bullpen, compiling a 3.65 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 8:8 K:BB in 12.1 innings.

Hoffman (6-3) took the loss Tuesday against the Yankees, giving up one run on one hit in the ninth inning.

Brought in for the top of the ninth with the score tied 4-4, Hoffman coughed up the lead when Ben Rice turned on a first-pitch fastball and drove it over the fence in right-center field for the game-winning run. Hoffman has served up 10 homers in 43.1 innings this season, leading to a 4.78 ERA despite an impressive 60:11 K:BB and 1.06 WHIP, and as a result it's possible he could get bumped aside as Toronto's closer if the club makes a high-profile bullpen addition at the trade deadline.

The Tigers returned Gipson-Long from his rehab assignment earlier this week after he reported continued neck stiffness plus general fatigue coming out of his most recent start with Triple-A Toledo on Friday, Evan Petzold of The Detroit Free Press reports.

After dazzling in his first rehab start July 13 with five strikeouts over 4.2 scoreless frames, Gipson-Long struggled during his 77-pitch appearance with Toledo on Friday, allowing seven earned runs on nine hits and two walks in 3.2 innings. Despite the Tigers' decision to pull him off the assignment, Gipson-Long hasn't been shut down from throwing, but he won't resume pitching in games for at least another week. Detroit will want Gipson-Long to build up to around 90 pitches once he resumes his rehab assignment before the team considers activating him from the 15-day injured list and potentially inserting him into the rotation.

The Royals acquired Krehbiel from the Rays on Wednesday in exchange for cash considerations, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Krehbiel has spent all of the 2025 season at Triple-A Durham, where he's collected a 6.11 ERA and 34:10 K:BB over 35.1 innings. The 32-year-old hasn't pitched at the major-league level since 2023 and will represent relief depth at Triple-A Omaha.

Clase gave up a hit and struck out one in a scoreless ninth inning Tuesday to record his 22nd save of the season in a 6-3 win over the Orioles.

The Cleveland closer breezed through the bottom of Baltimore's order on 13 pitches (nine strikes). Clase has been tagged for an earned run only once in his last 14 appearances, posting a 0.59 ERA, 0.78 WHIP and 13:2 K:BB over 15.1 innings during that stretch while converting eight of nine save chances.

Cantillo (2-0) picked up the win in Tuesday's 6-3 victory over the Orioles, allowing one run on two hits and four walks over five innings. He struck out five.

The 25-year-old southpaw tossed only 57 of 95 pitches for strikes, but 35 called or swinging strikes and a couple double plays behind him kept the damage to a minimum. Cantillo's stint in the rotation may not last much longer with Shane Bieber (elbow) getting closer to his season debut, but Cantillo has held his own so far, posting a 4.08 ERA, 1.47 WHIP and 23:10 K:BB in 17.2 innings over four July starts. His next outing lines up to come on the road this weekend in Kansas City.
