Brash (elbow) has made six appearances during his rehab assignment with Triple-A Tacoma, logging an 8.44 ERA, 2.06 WHIP and 5:2 K:BB over 5.1 innings.

Brash last pitched Tuesday, which marked the first time he's worked two out of three days on his rehab stint. He had previously received at least three days off in between each of his first five outings. The hard-throwing right-hander appears to be on the precipice of being activated from the injured list after missing all of last season due to Tommy John surgery. General manager Justin Hollander said Wednesday that Brash is "getting very close" to rejoining Seattle's bullpen, per Zac Hereth of Seattle Sports.

Bautista picked up the save in Wednesday's 5-4 win over the Yankees after throwing a clean ninth inning. He struck out one.

Eight of Bautista's 10 pitches landed for strikes, so it was a relatively easy night for the big right-hander. Bautista has pitched well in spite of a troublesome 15.8 percent walk rate in 2025 after missing all of last season due to Tommy John surgery, turning in a 2.00 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 11:6 K:BB over nine innings while going a perfect 5-for-5 on save chances. The Orioles have just six save opportunities to date, which ranks 29th in the major leagues, and Bautista didn't see his first chance until the April 12 win over the Blue Jays.

Kelly (glute) is playing catch from 75 feet and is likely to be sidelined until late May or early June, MLB.com reports.

The right-hander landed on the shelf April 11 due to a left gluteal strain, which is an injury he's dealt with previously. Kelly still has significant work to do in his throwing program and is at least a few weeks away from potentially rejoining the active roster.

The Rangers recalled Boushley from Triple-A Round Rock on Thursday.

Boushley had been optioned to Round Rock on Monday, but he's eligible to rejoin the Rangers just three days later after the team placed catcher Kyle Higashioka (intercostal) on the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move. The Rangers are likely to deploy Boushley in long relief after the right-hander allowed five runs on six hits and two walks over 7.2 innings across his prior three appearances with the big club this season.

Detmers (0-1) gave up five runs on five hits without recording an out in relief to take the loss Wednesday against the Mariners.

Detmers entered in the seventh inning with the scored tied 2-2. The lefty was initially unlucky as the first two batters he faced reach on an infield single and a bunt single, respectively, but Detmers then gave up three more consecutive knocks -- including a Julio Rodriguez double -- and was pulled having failed to record an out. In total, five runs were charged to Detmers' line, pushing his season ERA all the way up to 5.79. The first-round pick of the 2020 First-Year Player Draft is transitioning to a relief role this season and had been pitching well prior to getting blown up Wednesday, as he entered the contest against Seattle with a 2.57 ERA and 14:5 K:BB over 14 innings.

The Royals transferred McArthur (elbow) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Thursday.

The transaction clears a spot on the 40-man roster for right-hander Taylor Clarke, whose contract was selected from Triple-A Omaha on Thursday. McArthur is recovering from surgery to address an olecranon fracture in his right elbow and has not yet started a throwing program.

The Royals selected Clarke's contract from Triple-A Omaha on Thursday.

Clarke last pitched in the majors in 2023 with the Royals, posting a 5.95 ERA and 65:24 K:BB over 59 frames that season. The 31-year-old allowed nine runs (seven earned) with a 9:5 K:BB across 14.1 innings this season with Omaha.

Hoffman (3-0) struck out three over two perfect innings of relief Wednesday to pick up the win in an extra-inning victory over the Red Sox.

After shutting down Boston in the ninth inning, Hoffman stayed on the mound for the 10th and was rewarded when the Blue Jays walked it off in the bottom of the frame. The 32-year-old right-hander has been needed more than one inning in three of his last seven appearances, racking up three wins and three saves during that span with a 0.90 ERA, 0.50 WHIP and 16:1 K:BB over 10 innings. Hoffman hadn't worked since Sunday, so he was well rested, but after tossing 27 pitches Wednesday he likely won't be available should a save situation arise Thursday in the series finale against the Red Sox.

Whitlock allowed three runs on four hits over two innings in Wednesday's 7-6 extra-inning loss to Toronto.

Whitlock opened the seventh inning with Boston leading, 6-3, and left with the game tied. He retired the first two batters before giving up a walk, single and home run, his first big fly allowed this season. Whitlock entered the contest without having allowed a run in six straight outings. He's an important bullpen piece and is often used for multiple innings; seven of his 11 appearances have lasted two innings. Whitlock owns a 3.06 ERA with 19 strikeouts and five walks over 17.2 innings.

Sterner allowed a walk while striking out two over a scoreless inning Wednesday against the Rangers. He's thrown 14.2 scoreless innings to begin the season.

Sterner has an impressive 29.6% strikeout rate and hasn't allowed a Barrel this season. However, he's been a bit lucky with a 14.8% walk rate and a .200 BABIP. His early success could find him used in higher-leverage spots as he's mostly worked in middle relief thus far.
