Mederos was recalled from Triple-A Salt Lake before Monday's game against the Rangers.

Mederos is in line for another chance in the major leagues after making one appearance earlier in the season. He surrendered two runs on two hits and three walks while striking out two over three innings April 25 against the Twins and will join the club in Los Angeles after it was reported that Hunter Strickland (shoulder) will require a stint on the 15-day injured list.

Strickland was placed on the 15-day injured list Monday due to right shoulder inflammation.

Strickland tossed a scoreless frame and registered a strikeout in Sunday's series finale against the Blue Jays, so it's unclear as to when this issue may have flared up. Victor Mederos was recalled from Triple-A Salt Lake in a corresponding move.

The Tigers optioned Horn to Triple-A Toledo on Monday, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

He's clearing out to free up a spot on the roster for the addition of Keider Montero, who was called up from Triple-A to start in Monday's game against the Rays. Horn has made three relief appearances for the Tigers this season, yielding one run with a 3:1 K:BB over 2.2 innings.

The Rays recalled Englert from Triple-A Durham on Monday.

Englert has made 13 appearances out of the Rays' bullpen in 2025, posting a 4.84 ERA but a more promising 22:4 K:BB over 22.1 innings. He's absorbing the roster spot vacated by Mason Montgomery, who was sent down to Durham.

The Rays optioned Montgomery to Triple-A Durham on Monday.

Montgomery allowed two runs while recording just one out in Sunday's win over the Twins and has posted a disappointing 5.74 ERA, 1.66 WHIP and 41:19 K:BB over 31.1 innings this season. The hard-throwing lefty will look to improve his command and control at Durham.

Leiter picked up a hold against the Mets on Sunday, walking one batter and hitting another but allowing no runs over two-thirds of an inning.

Leiter didn't have good control in the outing, as he threw just six of 16 pitches for strikes and hit a batter in addition to issuing a walk. However, that hit batsman was wiped out on a double play, and the free pass didn't end up hurting the Yankees. Leiter was ultimately credited with a hold -- his 11th of the campaign, but his first since June 19. The right-hander has held the opponent scoreless in consecutive outings after giving up seven runs (five earned) over 1.2 frames during a rough three-game stretch from June 24 to July 1.

Little gave up a hit and a walk in a scoreless eighth inning Sunday to record his 16th hold of the season in a win over the Angels. He struck out one.

The 28-year-old southpaw was a first-round pick of the Cubs back in 2017, and that talent has finally shown through this season in a high-leverage relief role. Little's 16 holds leads the Blue Jays by a wide margin -- Yariel Rodriguez is second with 10 -- and has him sixth in the American League, six back of Houston's Bryan Abreu. Little backs up that setup success with a 2.18 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 58:27 K:BB through 41.1 innings.

Lee (4-0) tossed 1.2 scoreless innings of relief to earn the win in Sunday's 7-2, extra-inning victory over Cleveland. He allowed a hit and a walk while striking out one.

Lee retired the last two batters of the eighth inning and then worked the ninth, which set him up for the win when the Tigers erupted for six runs in the top of the 10th. The righty has been effective in his rookie season, posting a 2.05 ERA, 0.91 WHIP and 28 strikeouts across 30.2 innings. Lee has also managed to give Detroit some length out of the bullpen, as he's retired four or more batters 11 times through his 25 appearances to date.

Smith (2-3) has returned from back spasms and picked up the loss in Sunday's game against Detroit. He allowed six runs (four earned) on five hits and an error over a third of an inning.

Smith came on to pitch the 10th inning after closer Emmanuel Clase's wild pitch in the ninth allowed the tying run to score. Smith, who had ceded just one regular-season home run during his MLB career, was taken deep twice in the final frame. Back spasms limited his availability over the final week of June.

Orze allowed an unearned run in one inning during Sunday's extra-inning win over the Twins. He walked one batter and earned a save.

Orze entered the 10th inning with a 7-4 lead and closed things out without much trouble aside from the automatic runner coming around to score. It was his first save since May 9, and he's converted each of his three chances this season. Orze owns a 2.79 ERA with a 35:13 K:BB across 38.2 innings on the campaign. Pete Fairbanks threw 1.2 innings and earned a win Sunday.
