  • Colin Selby RP | BAL

    Orioles' Colin Selby: Working as 27th man Saturday

    The Orioles added Selby to their active roster to serve as the 27th man for Saturday's doubleheader against the Tigers, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

    Selby gave up two earned runs in one inning during his lone major-league outing this season, but he's given up just one run in 5.1 frames at Triple-A. He'll give the O's some bullpen depth for Saturday's twin bill but will almost certainly be sent back to Norfolk after the end of the second game.

  • Guardians' Erik Sabrowski: Moves to 60-day IL

    The Guardians transferred Sabrowski (elbow) to the 60-day injured list Saturday, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.

    Sabrowski has been sidelined since spring training due to left elbow inflammation, and his move to the 60-day IL will ensure he remains out until at least late May. His spot on the 40-man roster will be given to Kolby Allard, who was selected from Triple-A Columbus in a corresponding move.

  • Blue Jays' Mason Fluharty: Collects first big-league win

    Fluharty (1-0) picked up his first career win Friday in a victory over the Yankees, giving up one run on one hit and one walk over two-thirds of an inning.

    It wasn't a clean outing, but after letting New York take a 2-1 lead in the eighth inning on an Austin Wells sacrifice fly, Fluharty got bailed out in the top of the ninth by a three-run surge from the Toronto offense. The 23-year-old lefty has been mostly effective since making his MLB debut at the beginning of April, posting a 3.12 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 9:5 K:BB in 8.2 innings.

  • Red Sox's Cooper Criswell: Up as 27th man

    The Red Sox added Criswell to the active roster to serve as the 27th man for Saturday's doubleheader against the Guardians.

    Since being sent down to Triple-A in early April, Criswell has turned in a 0.82 ERA and 0.91 WHIP across 11 innings alongside a 16:3 K:BB. He'll help the Red Sox's bullpen get through Saturday's twin bill but is likely to head back to Worcester after Game 2 is finished.

  • Luke Jackson RP | SEA

    Rangers' Luke Jackson: Bounces back with eighth save

    Jackson struck out one in a scoreless two-thirds of an inning to record his eighth save of the season in Friday's 2-0 win over the Giants.

    Robert Garcia remained on the mound to begin the ninth inning and struck out Jung Hoo Lee before handing the ball over to Jackson, who took care of right-handed batters Matt Chapman and Wilmer Flores. It was a nice bounce-back effort for Jackson after he blew his first save of the season Thursday, but it likely leaves him unavailable for Saturday if Texas has another late lead to protect. Through 10.2 innings on the year, Jackson sports a 3.38 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 8:3 K:BB.

  • Mason Miller SP | SD

    Athletics' Mason Miller: Escapes with eighth save

    Miller recorded his eighth save of the season in Friday's 6-5 win over the White Sox, giving up two runs on two hits in the ninth inning. He struck out one.

    The A's built a three-run cushion before Miller entered the game, and he needed every bit of it after Brooks Baldwin turned on a 99 mph fastball and ripped it down the right-field line for a two-run blast. It was the first homer, and the first runs, Miller had allowed in 2025, but he remains a perfect 8-for-8 in converting save chances with a 2.00 ERA, 0.78 WHIP and dominant 18:1 K:BB over nine innings.

  • Michel Otanez RP | TEX

    Athletics' Michel Otanez: Set to begin rehab assignment

    Otanez (shoulder) is set to begin a rehab assignment with Single-A Stockton on April 29, MLB.com reports.

    He threw a 15-pitch live bullpen session April 23, according to the report. Otanez was diagnosed with a right shoulder impingement in mid-March. He's expected to fill a high-leverage setup role in front of closer Mason Miller when he returns.

  • Jose Leclerc RP | ATH

    Athletics' Jose Leclerc: Seeking second opinion

    Leclerc (right lat strain) will receive a second opinion with a doctor in Texas during the week of April 28, MLB.com reports.

    The right-hander left an April 22 appearance with what was originally labeled shoulder soreness but later diagnosed as a lat strain. However, the need for a second opinion would suggest his injury may be to his shoulder or more severe than first thought.

  • Royals' James McArthur: Hasn't started throwing

    McArthur (elbow) continues to rehab in Kansas City but hasn't progressed quickly and is not throwing yet, MLB.com reports.

    McArthur underwent surgery in the offseason to address an olecranon fracture in his right elbow. While his timetable to return was always unclear, there had been optimism he could return early this summer given he started throwing at the start of spring training.

  • Sam Long RP | KC

    Royals' Sam Long: Begins throwing

    Long (elbow) has thrown each of the past two days, MLB.com reports.

    Long had imaging on his elbow April 14 which showed inflammation and no structural damage. While he's started throwing, it's not clear when he may begin a rehab assignment. The elbow issue may have contributed to the left-hander's struggles this season, as he's turned in a 12.86 ERA and 2.43 WHIP across seven appearances.
