  • Owen White RP | CHW

    Rangers' Owen White: Set to be recalled

    The Rangers plan to call up White from Triple-A Round Rock ahead of Wednesday's doubleheader with the Athletics, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.

    He'll give the Rangers some potential length out of the bullpen. White has posted a 5.70 ERA and 19:9 K:BB across 23.2 innings this season with Round Rock.

  • Alex Speas RP | MIN

    Athletics' Alex Speas: Exits 40-man roster

    The Athletics designated Speas for assignment Wednesday.

    He'll cede his spot on the 40-man roster to left-hander Easton Lucas, who was called up from Triple-A Las Vegas in a corresponding move. Speas was acquired via trade from the White Sox last month and has held an ugly 12.08 ERA over 11 relief appearances this season with Las Vegas.

  • Pedro Avila RP | CLE

    Guardians' Pedro Avila: Takes loss Tuesday

    Avila (0-1) allowed a run on three hits and two walks while striking out four over three innings to take the loss Tuesday versus the Tigers.

    Guardians starter Logan Allen was pulled in the third inning after allowing a tying run that knotted the game at 7-7. Avila was better in a longer relief appearance, but he was tagged with the loss due to a lack of offense from Cleveland after that point. Avila has pitched to a 6.11 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 20:8 K:BB over 17.2 innings across eight appearances between Cleveland and San Diego this season. His ERA is 3.72 across four outings with the Guardians, but it's still possible Avila loses his place on the 26-man roster once Eli Morgan (shoulder) completes a rehab assignment.

  • Hogan Harris RP | ATH

    Athletics' Hogan Harris: Sent down to minors

    The Athletics optioned Harris to Triple-A Las Vegas on Wednesday.

    Harris was up with the big club for only a couple days, allowing four runs over 5.1 innings in an extended relief appearance in Tuesday's 15-8 loss to the Rangers. He should slide back into Las Vegas' rotation.

  • Rangers' Kolton Ingram: Dropped from 40-man roster

    The Rangers designated Ingram for assignment Wednesday.

    Ingram was cast off the 40-man roster after the Rangers needed to open up a spot for outfielder/designated hitter Robbie Grossman, whom the team acquired from the White Sox on Wednesday. After being claimed off waivers from the Mets on April 24, Ingram didn't make any appearances for Texas, as he had been pitching in relief at Triple-A Round Rock. He'll remain in the organization and stick around with Round Rock if he clears waivers.

  • Tommy Kahnle RP | DET

    Yankees' Tommy Kahnle: Starting rehab assignment

    Kahnle (shoulder) will begin a rehab assignment with Single-A Tampa on Wednesday.

    Kahnle has been out all season with a right shoulder issue that has been bothering him since late in the 2023 campaign. Because he's missed so much time, Kahnle will likely require at least five rehab outings before being activated from the 15-day injured list, according to Max Goodman of The Newark Star-Ledger.

  • Yimi Garcia RP | TOR

    Blue Jays' Yimi Garcia: Hopes to be available Wednesday

    The Blue Jays hope Garcia (back) will be available to pitch Wednesday, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.

    Garcia's last appearance came all the way back on April 28 as he deals with a nagging back issue. He's apparently feeling better, though, and as long as he checks out well during a pregame throwing session he is expected to be available out of the bullpen Wednesday. Garcia has been one of the best relievers in baseball this season, allowing just one run with a 16:3 K:BB over 13.1 innings.

  • Guardians' Eli Morgan: Starts up rehab assignment

    Morgan (shoulder) made the second appearance of his rehab assignment Tuesday with Triple-A Columbus, recording one out while giving up two earned runs on zero hits and two walks.

    Morgan pitched a clean inning in his first rehab outing for Columbus on Saturday, but he couldn't replicate that success Tuesday. Assuming the right-hander didn't experience any setbacks with his inflamed shoulder, however, he should be on track to return from the 15-day injured list either this week or next.

  • Tyler Beede RP | CHC

    Guardians' Tyler Beede: Clears waivers

    The Guardians outrighted Beede to Triple-A Columbus on Tuesday.

    After Cleveland designated him for assignment Friday and removed him from its 40-man roster, Beede will end up sticking around in the organization. The right-hander earned a spot in the Guardians' Opening Day bullpen but produced an ugly 8.36 ERA and 1.79 WHIP over 14 innings before getting demoted.

  • Brad Keller SP | PHI

    White Sox's Brad Keller: Used in long relief

    Keller allowed one earned run on five hits and no walks with no strikeouts across three innings Tuesday against the Rays. He did not factor into the decision.

    Keller pitched as a traditional starter May 1, but he was shifted back to the bullpen after Mike Clevinger was promoted to the majors. Keller pitched effectively in his return to relief and followed Michael Soroka into the game. However, due to his lack of strikeouts and relatively low win potential, Keller isn't likely to generate much fantasy intrigue.
