Luis Guerrero RP | BOS
Red Sox's Luis Guerrero: Sent back to Triple-A
The Red Sox optioned Guerrero to Triple-A Worcester on Sunday, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.
Guerrero was up with the big club for just one day and will be sent back to the minors after giving up an earned run on two hits and three walks over 1.1 innings in the second game of Saturday's doubleheader. Right-hander Zack Kelly was recalled from Triple-A to take Guerrero's spot in the bullpen.

Brenan Hanifee RP | DET
Tigers' Brenan Hanifee: Takes loss Saturday
Hanifee (2-2) allowed four runs (three earned) on three hits over an inning of work to take the loss Saturday against the Guardians. He walked one and struck out one.
Working the top of the 10th inning with the score tied 3-3, Hanifee picked an inopportune time to have his worst outing of the season. Coming into Saturday, the righty had allowed only six earned runs all year and had yet to allow more than one earned run in any single appearance. Hanifee still has a strong 3.24 ERA despite the hiccup, and he remains a key member of Detroit's bullpen.

Mason Miller SP | SD
Athletics' Mason Miller: Blows save Saturday
Miller allowed a run on two hits and a walk while striking out three over one inning, taking a blown save in Saturday's 9-6 extra-innings loss to the Phillies.
Miller hadn't received a save chance since May 10 versus the Yankees. The Athletics are 1-12 since that date, and Miller was part of the problem in this latest loss, serving up a game-tying home run to Max Kepler in the ninth inning. Miller has been scored on in five of his seven outings in May, surrendering 11 runs (10 earned) while adding a 13:8 K:BB over 6.2 innings this month. Those strikeout numbers show the flamethrower's talent, but he's in arguably the roughest patch of his young career right now. He's now at a 6.11 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and 35:10 K:BB through 17.2 innings this season while converting 11 of 13 save chances.

Seranthony Dominguez RP | TOR
Orioles' Seranthony Dominguez: Collects first save of campaign
Dominguez notched a save in Game 2 of Saturday's doubleheader against the Red Sox, allowing one run on two hits while striking out one batter over 1.2 innings.
Dominguez entered with one out in the eighth inning, inheriting runners on first and second with Baltimore clinging to a 1-0 lead. He did a fine job preserving the advantage, striking out Jarren Duran before getting Rafael Devers to foul out. The Orioles tacked on a run in the top of the ninth, which proved to be huge when Abraham Toro tagged Dominguez for a solo home run to begin the bottom of the frame. Dominguez allowed another hit -- a one-out single -- but was successfully able to close out the game for his first save of the season. The right-hander still has a poor 6.00 ERA on the campaign, and his usage in the ninth inning in the second game of the twin bill was likely a result of Felix Bautista pitching in Game 1, so there's probably no reason to believe a changing of the closer role is coming anytime soon in Baltimore.

Hunter Harvey RP | CHC
Royals' Hunter Harvey: Still dealing with sore shoulder
Harvey (right teres major strain) is still dealing with soreness in his shoulder, the Kansas City Star reports. "He's not throwing off the mound and he is continuing to play catch to keep his arm going. But we need to get all the symptoms out of there before we progress," said manager Matt Quatraro.
Harvey landed on the 15-day injured list April 11 due to a right teres major strain. He progressed enough in his recovery to throw bullpen sessions, but suffered a setback after experiencing soreness May 7. The right-hander is without a timeline for his return but shouldn't be expected back in the near future.

Yennier Cano RP | BAL
Orioles' Yennier Cano: Bounces back with scoreless inning
Cano threw a scoreless eighth inning in Saturday's 6-5 extra-inning loss to the Red Sox during Game 1 of a doubleheader. He struck out two.
It was a much-needed bounce-back showing by Cano, who had given up five runs across his prior three outings and nine runs over his previous seven games. His usage in the eighth inning of a tie game Saturday suggests he hasn't dropped down the pecking order as a setup man in Baltimore's bullpen despite his recent shortcomings, but Cano owns an unsightly 12.79 ERA and 2.05 WHIP over his last 6.1 innings.

Pete Fairbanks RP | MIA
Rays' Pete Fairbanks: Earns 10th save of 2025
Fairbanks earned the save in Friday's 3-1 win over the Blue Jays. He issued two walks without allowing a hit or recording a strikeout in a scoreless ninth inning.
Fairbanks was brought in to protect the Rays' two-run lead, and he was able to work around two walks to come away with his 10th save of the season (and second in as many days). He needed 21 pitches (11 strikes) to get through the frame, which could impact his availability for Sunday's series finale. Fairbanks has a 2.05 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 22:12 K:BB across 22 innings this season.

Bryan Abreu RP | HOU
Astros' Bryan Abreu: Bounces back
Abreu threw a scoreless eighth inning, allowing one walk and striking out two to earn a hold Saturday against the Mariners.
Abreu had a rare ineffective outing Friday, allowing two earned runs while taking his second loss of the season. He immediately bounced back Saturday to tally his 13th hold of the campaign, and he has now delivered a scoreless effort in 22 of his 24 appearances.

Bryse Wilson RP | CHW
White Sox's Bryse Wilson: No-decision in spot start
Wilson did not factor into the decision Saturday, allowing four runs (two earned) on five hits, two walks, and one hit by pitch over four-plus innings against the Rangers. He struck out four.
The 27-year-old filled in for probable starter Jonathan Cannon, who was scratched due to lower-back tightness. Wilson made it through four innings while allowing two runs before a Josh Rojas error in the fifth facilitated his exit. Two additional runs were charged to his line after reliever Mike Vasil was unable to escape the jam. Overall, Wilson has had a tough start to the 2025 season, posting a 5.84 ERA and 1.78 WHIP across 37 innings while bouncing between the rotation and bullpen.

Caden Dana SP | LAA
Angels' Caden Dana: Recalled by Halos
The Angels recalled Dana from Triple-A Salt Lake on Saturday.
Dana has spent most of the season in Triple-A, where he has a 3-4 record across eight starts with a 5.21 ERA, 1.45 WHIP and 41:16 K:BB across 38 innings. He made an appearance out of the Angels' bullpen against the Guardians on April 4, when he allowed two runs on four hits and one walk while striking out two across three innings. The Angels designated Shaun Anderson for assignment in order to make room on the 26-man roster for Dana, who is expected to serve in a long-relief role, per Sam Blum of The Athletic.
