Taylor (lat) was spotted playing catch Sunday and is expected to begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A Tacoma this week, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports.

Seattle placed Taylor on the 15-day injured list Thursday due to a right lat strain, which he suffered in late January while going through his offseason throwing program. While Taylor wasn't able to return to game action before the end of spring training, he looks like he'll be ready to head to the minors in the coming days. Taylor will be eligible to come off the IL on April 8.

The Athletics claimed Perdomo off waivers from the Angels on Sunday.

Perdomo doesn't have minor-league options remaining, so he'll presumably report to the Athletics in the next day or two and slot into a middle-relief role. The southpaw didn't pitch in 2024 while recovering from Tommy John surgery, but with Pittsburgh in 2023, Perdomo made 30 big-league relief appearances and logged a 3.72 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 44:11 K:BB across 29 innings.

The Orioles selected Bowman's contract from Triple-A Norfolk on Sunday.

Bowman will likely work in middle relief, filling the spot in the bullpen opened up when Albert Suarez (shoulder) was placed on the 15-day injured list in a corresponding move. The 33-year-old Bowman made 25 appearances at the big-league level in 2024 across stops with the Twins, Diamondbacks, Mariners and Orioles, submitting a 4.40 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 24:13 K:BB in 30.2 innings.

The Orioles placed Suarez on the 15-day injured list Sunday due to right shoulder inflammation.

Baltimore called up right-hander Matt Bowman from Triple-A Norfolk to join the bullpen as a replacement for Suarez. The veteran righty displayed diminished velocity in his season debut Friday, when he was charged with two runs (one earned) on five hits while striking out two across 2.2 innings in a 8-2 loss to the Blue Jays. Suarez will be eligible for activation as soon as April 13.

Harris allowed one hit and one walk while striking out one over one-third of a scoreless inning to earn a hold in Saturday's 4-2 victory over Seattle.

Harris shuffled between Triple-A and the majors last season despite good numbers but finally established himself in the bullpen late in the year. He had a 2.50 ERA with a 19:8 K:BB in 18 innings after being called up from Triple-A in late August last season. He had a strong 24.1 percent strikeout rate at Triple-A last season and 20.0 percent in the majors, but will need to reduce his walks to stay up with the big club.

Ferguson threw a perfect eighth inning while striking out two Saturday against the Mariners to earn his first hold of the season.

Ferguson will be a key setup man for the A's after displaying strong strikeout rates as a rookie last season. He struck out 105 batters across 79.2 innings between the Athletics (51.1 innings) and Triple-A Las Vegas (28.1 innings) in 2024.

Coulombe allowed one hit and one walk in a scoreless inning Saturday against St. Louis.

Coulombe missed much of the 2024 campaign following surgery to remove bone chips from his pitching elbow, but has looked healthy this spring. He'll be a key lefty setup man for the Twins this season.

Alcala (0-1) took the loss in Saturday's 5-1 defeat to the Cardinals. He allowed three runs on two hits and a walk while failing to record an out in the sixth inning.

Alcala was hit in the shoulder area by a line drive on the first batter he faced. While he stayed in the game and there wasn't a report of an injury, he may have been rattled as he then had trouble throwing strikes. The right-hander has premium velocity and reached a career-high 101.2 mph last summer, and he could work his way into a high-leverage role if he can string together better results.

The Blue Jays designated Lovelady for assignment Sunday.

Lovelady attended spring training as a non-roster invitee and was able to win a spot in Toronto's Opening Day bullpen, but his stay with the big club didn't last long. He'll cede his spot on the 40-man roster and in the bullpen to lefty Mason Fluharty, whose contract was selected from Triple-A Buffalo in a corresponding move. Lovelady's dismissal comes after he gave up four earned runs on two hits, two walks and three hit batsmen over 1.2 innings between his first two relief appearances of the season.

The Blue Jays selected Fluharty's contract from Triple-A Buffalo on Sunday.

The 23-year-old southpaw will work out of the Toronto bullpen and will likely be limited to low-leverage duties, at least initially. Fluharty spent the entire 2024 season at Buffalo, turning in a 3.63 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 76:25 K:BB in 67 innings.
