  • Joel Kuhnel RP | ATH

    Athletics' Joel Kuhnel: Promotion on tap

    Kuhnel will have his contract selected from Triple-A Las Vegas ahead of Tuesday's game against the Yankees, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

    Kuhnel's promotion to the big leagues will be the corresponding move after the Athletics optioned Luis Morales to Triple-A earlier in the day Monday. Kuhnel has looked sharp in two appearances so far this season with the Aviators, as he's racked up six strikeouts over three scoreless frames.

  • Drew Anderson RP | DET

    Tigers' Drew Anderson: Pitches better Monday

    Anderson allowed one run on two hits across three innings of relief in Monday's 7-3 loss to the Twins. He walked two and struck out four.

    Anderson relieved Detroit starter Casey Mize, who was mostly ineffective across 4.1 innings. The former kept Detroit in the game in his most effective outing so far this season, though he still didn't keep the opposition off the scoreboard. Anderson has been scored on in all four of his appearances, and he's sitting with a 7.11 ERA overall, so he still leaves a lot to be desired from a fantasy perspective. The righty should stick in a long-relief role for the Tigers.

  • Mitch Farris RP | LAA

    Angels' Mitch Farris: Recalled from Triple-A

    The Angels recalled Farris from Triple-A Salt Lake on Monday.

    He's taking the roster spot vacated by Ryan Johnson (illness). Farris posted a 6.66 ERA in five starts for the Angels in 2025 and struggled in his first outing this season at Salt Lake, but he will offer the bullpen some length.

  • Astros' Enyel De Los Santos: Returns from IL

    The Astros activated De Los Santos (knee) from the 15-day injured list Monday.

    De Los Santos got a late start to the season due to a right knee strain, but he's ready to go after making four scoreless rehab appearances. The right-hander will operate in a middle relief role for Houston.

  • Josh Fleming RP | TOR

    Blue Jays' Josh Fleming: Moves up to majors

    The Blue Jays selected Fleming's contract from Triple-A Buffalo on Monday.

    Toronto will swap Fleming into the bullpen in place of right-hander Austin Voth, who was designated for assignment after covering 2.2 innings in relief during Sunday's 3-0 loss to the White Sox. Like Voth before him, Fleming is expected to serve as a multi-inning option out of the bullpen and is likely to see most of his usage in lower-leverage spots. Fleming last saw MLB action with the Pirates in 2024, logging a 4.02 ERA and 1.53 WHIP over 31.1 innings across 25 appearances (three starts).

  • Austin Voth RP | TOR

    Blue Jays' Austin Voth: Dropped from 40-man roster

    The Blue Jays designated Voth for assignment Monday.

    Just one day after being called up from Triple-A Buffalo, Voth will surrender his spot on Toronto's 40-man roster. The right-hander will be replaced by lefty Josh Fleming, whose contract was selected from Buffalo in a corresponding move. Fleming will provide the Blue Jays with a fresh arm capable of covering multiple frames out of the bullpen after Voth yielded one earned run on three hits and one walk across 2.2 innings during his Toronto debut in Sunday's 3-0 loss to the White Sox.

  • Red Sox's Garrett Whitlock: Returns from paternity list

    The Red Sox reinstated Whitlock (personal) from the paternity leave list Monday.

    Boston sent out right-hander Tyler Uberstine to Triple-A Worcester to clear room on the active roster for Whitlock, who spent the maximum three days away from the Red Sox while observing the birth of his child. The 29-year-old right-hander should return to a high-leverage role in the Boston bullpen.

  • Roddery Munoz RP | HOU

    Astros' Roddery Munoz: Dropped from 40-man roster

    The Astros designated Munoz for assignment Monday.

    A Rule 5 selection over the winter, Munoz won a spot in the Houston bullpen coming out of spring training but will wind up losing his spot on the 40-man roster less than two weeks into the season after yielding seven earned runs over four innings across three appearances. Assuming he clears waivers, Houston will need to offer the 25-year-old righty back to Cincinnati.

  • Dietrich Enns RP | BAL

    Orioles' Dietrich Enns: Sidelined by infected foot

    The Orioles placed Enns on the 15-day injured list Monday with a left foot infection.

    The injury shouldn't require Enns to miss more than the minimum 15 days. Taking Enns' spot on the roster will be Brandon Young, who was called up from Triple-A Norfolk to serve as the Orioles' starting pitcher in Monday's game versus the White Sox.

  • Royals' James McArthur: Ready for throwing program

    McArthur (elbow) is expected to resume a throwing program Monday, MLB.com reports.

    McArthur has yet to pitch in a game since he underwent surgery following the 2024 season to address an olecranon fracture in his right elbow. He required another procedure last July to remove screws from his elbow and was expected to be ready to go for the start of spring training, but he needed to be shut down again after experiencing inflammation in the elbow. The Royals have characterized McArthur's setback as minor, and though he'll start throwing again this week, he's expected to be eased along slowly in his rehab program. The reliever appears unlikely to be ready to return from the injured list until at least May.
