Ort (oblique) will make rehab appearances with Triple-A Sugar Land on back-to-back days Tuesday and Wednesday, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

Making appearances in consecutive days is often the final hurdle a reliever needs to clear before being activated, so Ort could be back as soon as Friday. He's been shelved with a left oblique strain early in spring training.

Red Sox manager Alex Cora told reporters Monday that Hendriks (elbow) will pitch one more time for Triple-A Worcester before being activated from the 15-day injured list, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports.

After beginning the season on the IL due to right elbow inflammation, Hendriks progressed enough in his recovery to embark on a rehab assignment Thursday. He's pitched well in his two outings with the WooSox, allowing one hit and one walk while striking out four across two scoreless innings. Following his next rehab outing and barring any setbacks, Hendriks could join the Red Sox's bullpen as soon as this weekend's home series against the White Sox.

The Orioles designated Gonzalez for assignment Monday, Matt Weyrich of The Baltimore Sun reports.

The move clears a spot on the 40-man roster for Scott Blewett, who was claimed off waivers. Gonzalez, 33, has yet to make an appearance at the major-league level and holds a 5.79 ERA and 4:4 K:BB over 4.2 frames this season with Triple-A Norfolk.

The Orioles claimed Blewett off waivers from the Twins on Monday, Matt Weyrich of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Blewett has not yet reported to the Orioles, but he will have to join the major-league roster because he's out of minor-league options. When Blewett does report, Baltimore will need to make a corresponding 26-man roster move. The 29-year-old has permitted one earned run with a 5:0 K:BB over 4.2 innings at the big-league level this season.

The Rays recalled Orze from Triple-A Durham on Monday, Ryan Bass of FanDuel Sports Network Sun reports.

Orze had permitted just one hit and one run with a 9:0 K:BB over his first six innings with Durham this season. The 27-year-old will provide Tampa Bay with a fresh bullpen arm.

The Mariners reinstated Taylor (lat) from the 15-day injured list Monday.

Taylor has been cleared to make his 2025 debut with Seattle after he suffered a right lat strain early in spring training that resulted in him being shelved to begin the campaign. He proved his health over his four-appearance rehab assignment at Triple-A Tacoma over the past couple of weeks, covering 3.1 innings while striking out four batters and allowing three earned runs on seven hits and no walks. Taylor supplied a 3.72 ERA and 1.14 WHIP and gathered six holds over 21 appearances with Seattle in 2024, but he may be limited to middle-relief work initially as he returns from the lat injury.

Hill tossed 1.2 perfect innings against San Francisco on Sunday, striking out three batters.

Though Hill didn't enter in a save or hold situation, his outing came at a critical juncture of the game, as the Giants had put two runners on base while holding a two-run lead with one out in the eighth inning before the lefty was summoned. Hill handled the situation with aplomb, retiring all five batters he faced on 19 pitches (15 of which were strikes). Hill has been solid in relief for New York this season, posting a 3.68 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 7:2 K:BB over 7.1 innings while picking up two holds.

The Mariners designated Lawrence for assignment Monday.

Lawrence will be moved off the 40-man roster and will surrender his spot on the 26-man active roster and in the bullpen to right-hander Troy Taylor (lat), who was reinstated from the 15-day injured list in a corresponding move. After receiving a call-up from Triple-A Tacoma last Wednesday, Lawrence made one relief appearance for Seattle and gave up two earned runs on four hits and one walk over three innings.

Hoffman (2-0) picked up the win in Sunday's extra-inning victory over the Orioles, allowing one hit over two scoreless innings and striking out four.

The Toronto closer entered a 6-6 tie in the ninth inning, and stuck around for the 10th after the Blue Jays pushed across a run in the top of the final frame. Hoffman tossed 24 pitches (18 strikes) in the appearance, which could make him unavailable Monday should the team have a late lead to protect against Atlanta. Through his first 9.1 innings with the Jays, Hoffman has a 0.96 ERA, 0.64 WHIP and dominant 13:1 K:BB while converting all three of his save chances.

Munoz earned the save Sunday against the Rangers after giving up one hit in a scoreless ninth inning. He struck out two.

Munoz gave up a one-out base hit to Josh Smith and followed that up with back-to-back punch outs to seal the deal. Munoz now sits by himself in second with six saves on the year and has yet to allow a run in eight innings while posting a 12:4 K:BB.
