The Angels optioned Darrell-Hicks to Triple-A Salt Lake on Tuesday.

Darrell-Hicks made one appearance after being recalled from the minors Saturday, giving up three earned runs in one inning against the Tigers on Sunday. He'll now be sent back to Salt Lake in favor of Connor Brogdon and Hector Neris, who were promoted Tuesday to give Los Angeles a couple of fresh bullpen arms.

The Angels selected Neris' contract from Triple-A Salt Lake on Tuesday.

Since signing a minor-league deal with the Halos on April 17, Neris has given up two earned runs while striking out eight batters and walking one across four innings. He'll now join the big-league bullpen to provide some additional reliever depth, replacing Michael Darrell-Hicks, who was optioned to Salt Lake in a corresponding move.

The Angels selected Brogdon's contract from Triple-A Salt Lake on Tuesday.

Brogdon hasn't exactly had a great Triple-A season so far, posting a 12.89 ERA and 2.61 WHIP through 14.2 innings, though he has impressively struck out 21 batters in that span. Despite his poor numbers, he'll join the Angels' bullpen to give the big club a fresh arm. He'll replace Touki Toussaint, who was designated for assignment to clear a 40-man roster spot.

Yankees manager Aaron Boone said that Yarbrough is a candidate to enter the rotation after Carlos Carrasco was designated for assignment Tuesday, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.

Boone also mentioned Allan Winans as a rotation option, at least until Marcus Stroman (knee) is ready to return from the 15-day injured list. Yarbrough has been solid in one start and eight relief outings this season, posting a 3.72 ERA and 18:9 K:BB across 19.1 frames. His last appearance was as a starter, and he went 4.1 innings and threw 64 pitches, so the southpaw is already fairly stretched out. The Yankees have a potential opening in their rotation later this week, although they could go with a four-man rotation until next week.

The Yankees recalled De Los Santos from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday.

De Los Santos spun two scoreless innings in his lone appearance with the Yankees last month. The right-hander will provide manager Aaron Boone with a fresh bullpen arm.

The Guardians recalled Kent from Triple-A Columbus on Tuesday, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.

He'll be the club's 27th man for Tuesday's doubleheader versus the Nationals. Kent made his major-league debut with the Guardians last month, allowing one run over a three-inning relief appearance. He's likely to be returned to Columbus following the twin bill.

The Rays recalled Sulser from Triple-A Durham on Tuesday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

He'll absorb the roster spot vacated by Hunter Bigge (lat), who was placed on the 15-day injured list Tuesday. Sulser was roughed up for two runs on four hits and one walk over one inning in his lone appearance with the Rays earlier this season.

The Rays placed Bigge on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with a right lat strain, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

It's unclear when the injury occurred, but Bigge hadn't pitched since Thursday. He'll be eligible to return from the IL on May 18, but it's an injury type that typically results in longer than a 15-day absence. Cole Sulser was called up from Triple-A Durham to take Bigge's spot on the 26-man active roster.

Weaver (0-1) took the loss and blew a save opportunity against San Diego on Monday, allowing one run on two hits and a walk over one-third of an inning.

New York led 4-0 heading into the eighth inning, and manager Aaron Boone called upon demoted former closer Devin Williams to maintain the lead. Williams struggled, getting two strikeouts but allowing the Padres to load the bases. Weaver was then summoned to try to escape the jam but couldn't do so -- the first two batters he faced each got a hit, pushing four runs across the plate, though three of those were charged to Williams. Weaver then walked a batter before finally getting the out he needed to end the frame, but his poor outing allowed San Diego to take the lead and resulted in his first blown save of the campaign. The run charged to Weaver was also the first he has allowed this season, and given his overall excellence and Williams' continued struggles, it's likely Weaver will continue to work as the Yankees' closer, at least in the short term.

Effross (hamstring) has been sent to the Yankees' Florida Complex League affiliate to begin a rehab assignment.

Effross has been out since late February with a Grade 2 hamstring strain but is finally ready to test things out in a game setting. The reliever should be ready to rejoin the Yankees' bullpen later this month, barring any setbacks.
