Ryan was reassigned Tuesday to minor-league camp by the Mariners, Shannon Drayer of Seattle Sports 710 AM reports.

Ryan signed a minor-league contract at the beginning of 2023 with Seattle. The right-hander will likely be a part of the Tacoma pitching staff as a bullpen option.

Berroa was optioned to Double-A Arkansas by the Mariners on Tuesday, Shannon Drayer of Seattle Sports 710 AM reports.

Berroa impressed during the spring camp, but the right-hander was never a real option to make the Mariners out of spring training. The right-hander will be a part of the Arkansas rotation, and he has a chance to be a part of the Seattle staff before the end of 2023, with 2024 a more likely ETA.

White (shoulder) threw a successful side session Monday in Blue Jays camp, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.

Blue Jays manager John Schneider told reporters Tuesday that White is "right where he should be" and there are "no red flags" with his health. The 28-year-old has yet to appear in a Grapefruit League game this spring due to an offseason shoulder impingement, but it appears that he will be able to go a couple innings at a time for Toronto by Opening Day.

Weber was reassigned Tuesday to the minor-league side of Yankees camp.

Weber yielded just one run over 10.2 major-league innings with the Yankees last season and should eventually get another shot in the Bronx. For now, he is ticketed for the bullpen at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

Bowman was reassigned to minor-league camp by the Yankees on Tuesday.

After not having pitched since 2019 due to elbow problems, Bowman got hit around quite a bit during the spring, allowing six earned runs through just 4.2 innings. The 31-year-old righty will likely open the season in Triple-A to knock the rust off, and he could potentially join the Yankees later in the season if all goes well.

The Yankees optioned Garcia to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday.

Garcia allowed seven runs -- six earned -- in just 8.1 major-league innings last season, though he had been showing well in the Grapefruit League this spring. The 23-year-old right-hander should get a long look with the Yankees at some point in 2023.

Headrick was optioned to Triple-A St. Paul on Tuesday, Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com reports.

After a solid spring camp, Headrick now reaches Triple-A for the first time in his career. The 25-year-old southpaw split time between High-A and Double-A ball last season, recording a 4.81 ERA and 1.37 WHIP through 43 innings with Double-A Wichita.

Bautista (shoulder/knee) struck out two over a perfect inning Tuesday versus the Pirates in his Grapefruit League debut.

Bautista touched 99 mph on the radar gun, per Nathan Ruiz of The Baltimore Sun. He'll make another appearance Friday and an additional 2-3 after that in preparation of Opening Day. The Orioles slow-played Bautista this spring after last year's shoulder and knee issues, but those injuries no longer appear to be of concern.

Pacheco (elbow) was claimed off waivers by the Tigers on Tuesday and optioned to Triple-A Toledo.

Pacheco had been placed on outright waivers by the Cardinals earlier this month as he recovered from a bit of elbow tightness. The 24-year-old right-hander posted an encouraging 3.05 ERA with 84 strikeouts in 62 innings last season between Double-A Springfield and Triple-A Memphis. Assuming good health, he could make his MLB debut out of Detroit's bullpen at some point in 2023.

Tarnok hasn't pitched in a Cactus League game since March 8 due to right arm discomfort, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

Initial reports suggested it was a thumb issue Tarnok was dealing with, but apparently it's his pitching arm. He's undergoing tests and the Athletics should have a clearer idea of what's going on with the right-hander soon. Tarnok came over to the Athletics from Atlanta in the Sean Murphy trade. If healthy, he's likely to start 2023 at Triple-A Las Vegas.
