Hurter (2-1) allowed an unearned run on a hit and a walk across two innings of relief and took the loss Tuesday against the White Sox. He struck out four.

Hurter was the second pitcher up in a bullpen game started by Beau Brieske. The former pitched well while setting a new season high in strikeouts, but he got no help defensively or offensively in the team's 8-1 defeat. Hurter has been lights out this year with a 1.72 ERA and 31 strikeouts across 31.1 innings, and he'll continue to be a key bullpen option for the Tigers.

Holman will start Tuesday's game against the Twins.

The right-hander will make the first start of his MLB career Tuesday as an opener. Holman has a 4.74 ERA, 1.47 WHIP and 14:7 K:BB across 19 innings this season and should hand things off to the bullpen after an inning or two.

The Red Sox recalled Kelly from Triple-A Worcester on Tuesday, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.

Kelly has been touched up for 12 runs (11 earned) over 12 innings for the Red Sox this season. He'll provide the bullpen with a fresh arm.

The Red Sox recalled Criswell from Triple-A Worcester on Tuesday, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.

The Red Sox need some length in their bullpen after Richard Fitts recorded just three outs Monday against the Angels. Criswell has been rocked for eight runs (five earned) over 4.1 innings during his time with Boston this season but has collected a 1.52 ERA while being used primarily as a starter at Worcester.

The Red Sox placed Burdi on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with a right foot contusion, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.

He will be eligible to return June 18 and would seem to have a good shot to be activated on that date. Burdi has spun 5.1 scoreless relief innings for the Red Sox this season.

The White Sox recalled Freeman from Triple-A Charlotte on Tuesday.

Freeman has made four relief appearances in the majors this season, permitting two runs over 2.1 frames. The 27-year-old will give Chicago's bullpen a fresh arm.

Brieske will start Tuesday's game against the White Sox, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

Brieske regularly served as an opener for Detroit last season and will receive his first start of 2025 on Tuesday. The right-hander has a 4.95 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and 14:8 K:BB across 20 innings this season and isn't likely to pitcher longer than an inning or two versus Chicago.

The Yankees recalled De Los Santos from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday.

De Los Santos has permitted four runs with a 9:6 K:BB over 12 innings this season during his time with the big club. He will be used in low-leverage spots.

The Yankees activated Cruz (shoulder) from the 15-day injured list Tuesday.

Cruz was sidelined for the past two weeks with right shoulder inflammation. He'll skip a rehab assignment and go right back into a Yankees bullpen that just lost Luke Weaver (hamstring).

The Yankees placed Weaver on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with a left hamstring strain.

Weaver suffered the injury while warming up during Sunday's game against the Dodgers and is expected to be sidelined 4-to-6 weeks. Devin Williams will slide back into the closer role for the Yankees while Weaver is shelved.
