Altavilla re-signed Sunday with the White Sox on a minor-league contract.

Chicago granted Altavilla his release last Tuesday after informing him he wouldn't be included on the Opening Day roster, and after briefly exploring his options in free agency, the right-hander ultimately decided to return to the White Sox organization. He reported to Triple-A Charlotte and struck out a batter over 1.2 perfect innings of relief Sunday in the affiliate's 9-6 win over Gwinnett.

Hendriks (elbow) resumed playing catch Sunday, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.

Hendriks received a cortisone shot Thursday and said he feels much better. He said the shot loosened the tension in what he called a compressed nerve. The right-hander believes he can return from the 15-day injured list around when he's first eligible April 8, but manager Alex Cora said that the Red Sox will not skip any steps in the rehab process for Hendriks, who didn't pitch for the big club and was limited to six minor-league appearances while finishing up his recovery from Tommy John surgery.

Jackson allowed a hit and a walk during a scoreless inning against Boston on Sunday. He struck out one and earned a save.

Jackson retired the first two batters he faced on just five pitches. He then coughed up a double to Jarren Duran and walked Rafael Devers before striking out Alex Bregman to close out the 3-2 victory. Jackson was roughed up in his first appearance, allowing three runs while recording only one out and taking a loss Thursday. Rangers manager Bruce Bochy showed confidence in Jackson by throwing him in save situations Friday and Sunday. Jackson converted both, leading to a 3-1 series win for Texas.

Schreiber allowed one run on two hits while striking out two over 1.1 innings Sunday against the Guardians.

Schreiber saw his strikeout rate dip to 20.5 percent in 2024 in his first year in Kansas City but remained useful with a 3.66 ERA and 1.32 WHIP over 51.2 regular-season innings. He could be a nice source of holds (24 last year) ahead of Lucas Erceg and Carlos Estevez in the bullpen.

Stratton allowed two runs on three hits and two walks with no strikeouts over 1.2 innings Sunday against Cleveland.

Stratton's season ended in mid-September due to a forearm injury, but he was healthy in spring training. He was unimpressive last season with a 5.55 ERA, 17.1 percent K rate and 12.8 percent walk rate but was a consistent part of the middle-relief corps. A slow start to the season won't help him find higher-leverage usage.

Brash (elbow), whom Seattle placed on the 15-day injured list Thursday, is getting closer to beginning a minor-league rehab assignment with Triple-A Tacoma, Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times reports.

After returning to action for the first time since September 2023 in Seattle's final spring training game last week, Brash is inching toward taking the next step in his recovery from Tommy John surgery. The hard-throwing right-hander will likely need to make several appearances in the minors before returning to Seattle's bullpen, so he remains unlikely to rejoin the major-league roster until sometime in late April or early May. Although Brash is set to serve as a high-leverage arm for the Mariners, the club could ease him back into action as a middle reliever upon his eventual activation from the IL.

Jansen picked up the save in Sunday's 3-2 win against the White Sox, pitching a scoreless inning with no strikeouts while allowing a hit and a walk.

The 37-year-old collected his 449th career save, working around a double and a walk before inducing a game-ending double play. Despite debuting late in spring training March 1 due to lingering shoulder soreness, Jansen appears to be in classic form, as he now needs just 30 more saves to pass Lee Smith for third most all-time. Jansen is firmly planted in his role as the Angels' closer and could be a trade deadline target if the team fades out of contention.

Fairbanks picked up the save in Sunday's 6-4 win over the Rockies, pitching a scoreless inning while allowing two hits. He struck out two.

Fairbanks worked around two hits to lock down his first save of 2025, securing the win with a punchout of Mickey Moniak to end the game. The right-handed flamethrower has notched 64 career saves with the Rays, which ranks fifth in franchise history. After an uneven 45.1 innings with a 3.57 ERA in 2024, Fairbanks looks secure in his role as the Tampa Bay closer, opening the season with a 4:2 K:BB in his first two innings.

Hoffman earned the save in Sunday's 3-1 win over the Orioles, striking out two in a perfect ninth inning.

Hoffman retired all three batters he faced, capping off a 10-pitch battle with Gary Sanchez to record a game-ending strikeout. The 32-year-old excelled in a shared closer role for Philadelphia last season, converting 10 of 13 save chances while posting a 2.17 ERA, 0.96 WHIP and 89 strikeouts. Now in Toronto, he has the opportunity to thrive as the full-time closer for another playoff contender.

Munoz earned the save in Sunday's 2-1 win over the A's, allowing one hit while striking out a pair in a scoreless ninth inning.

Munoz now has two saves through the Mariners' first four games this season, posting three strikeouts over two innings. The 26-year-old Munoz was excellent in 2024, converting 22 of 27 save opportunities while posting a 2.12 ERA, 0.96 WHIP and 77 strikeouts across 59.1 innings. Munoz should be one of the top closers again in 2025.
