Sandlin will receive a PRP injection for his right lat Tuesday, Hazel Mae of Sportsnet reports.

Sandlin landed on the 15-day injured list Sunday due to a right lat strain, and the hope is that the injection speeds up the recovery process. He'll be monitored over the next few days, and how he reacts to the treatment will help determine his rehab program and throwing schedule. Sandlin logged a 2.25 ERA, 1.25 WHIP, one save and two holds across eight innings prior to his placement on the IL.

Swanson (elbow) will throw a bullpen session Tuesday, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Swanson threw a simulated game Saturday, and if his upcoming bullpen session goes well he could be sent on a rehab assignment. He's progressing in his recovery from carpal tunnel in his right elbow, but barring any setbacks he could return in early May. Swanson appeared in 45 games for the Blue Jays in 2024 and registered a 5.03 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 37:14 K:BB across 39.1 innings.

Loaisiga (elbow) will begin a rehab assignment with Single-A Tampa on Saturday, Erik Boland of Newsday reports.

Loaisiga is just over 12 months removed from an internal brace procedure on his right elbow and has finally been cleared for game appearances. His rehab assignment figures to be a lengthy one given how much time he's missed. Loaisiga could work his way back into high-leverage relief situations for the Yankees, but it will take a while.

Astros manager Joe Espada said Monday that Ort (oblique) could be activated from the 15-day injured list Tuesday, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

Ort has made five rehab appearances with Triple-A Sugar Land allowing three runs (two earned) with a 4:3 K:BB over 4.1 frames. He's been working his way back from a left oblique strain. Ort was superb during his 24.2 innings with Houston last season, holding a 2.55 ERA with a 26:4 K:BB.

The Blue Jays recalled Walker from Triple-A Buffalo on Monday, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Walker will give manager John Schneider a fresh relief arm after the bullpen had to cover 7.1 innings in Sunday's loss to the Mariners. The left-hander has posted a 6.45 ERA and 23:12 K:BB over 22.1 frames at the big-league level across the previous two seasons.

Slaten picked up the save in Monday's 4-2 win against the White Sox, pitching a clean inning with one strikeout.

Slaten efficiently secured the win, requiring only 12 pitches -- 10 of which were strikes -- to retire the side in order. Aroldis Chapman pitched the eighth inning, as he was called upon to face the top of the Chicago lineup. However, this outing shows that Slaten could be in line for more save opportunities as Boston manager Alex Cora may look to deploy Chapman in the highest leverage spots. Although Slaten owns a 4.00 ERA, his performance has been much better under the hood, pitching to a 1.59 FIP, 0.56 WHIP and 8:1 K:BB across nine innings.

The Guardians designated McKenzie for assignment Monday.

McKenzie has struggled in a mop-up role this season, allowing seven runs with a 4:7 K:BB over 5.2 innings. The 27-year-old holds just a 5.46 ERA, 21.2 percent strikeout rate and 15.6 percent walk rate since the start of the 2023 campaign and has dealt with arm issues during that stretch. McKenzie comes with team control through 2027, but his lack of minor-league options is likely to hurt his appeal on waivers.

Schultz gave up two hits and struck out eight over 4.1 scoreless innings of relief in Sunday's loss to the Mariners.

Per Keegan Matheson of MLB.com, the eight Ks tied a major-league record for a pitcher making his MLB debut in a relief role, a mark most recently matched by Hayden Wesneski in 2022 with the Cubs. Schultz began a conversion to the bullpen at Triple-A Buffalo last season and was having a good start to the season at that level, posting a 2.08 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 9:2 K:BB in 8.2 innings over four appearances. With the Blue Jays struggling to fill their fifth starter spot -- Easton Lucas, who took the loss Sunday, has been tagged for five homers and 14 runs in 7.2 innings over his last two starts -- Schultz made a strong case in his debut to stick around as a long reliever, and potentially even get a look as a primary pitcher working behind an opener.

Beeter (shoulder) struck out all four batters he faced in his first rehab appearance with Single-A Tampa on Sunday.

It was a good start for Beeter, who should move up to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre eventually before being activated from the 15-day injured list. Beeter did not make any spring training appearances, so it could be a relatively lengthy rehab assignment.

Hendriks allowed two runs on three hits while striking out one over one inning in Sunday's 8-4 loss to the White Sox.

It had been 22 months since Hendriks last pitched in a major-league game. The right-hander first beat non-Hodgkin's lymphoma before Tommy John elbow surgery sidelined him. He opened the eighth inning, allowing a single to the first batter faced then a two-run home run two batters later. "Some good things to take from it, some not so great things to take from it," Hendriks told Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic. "But, now I can say I've gone out there. Now I can say I've pitched for the Boston Red Sox. Now there's no sentimental value to anything like that. It's go and perform." Returning to the role as a closer may not be in the cards for Hendriks, but the Red Sox want him eventually to be part of a late-game crew.
