Oakland recalled Long from Triple-A Las Vegas on Friday.

Long will give the Athletics some extra bullpen depth with rosters expanding from 26 to 28. The 28-year-old left-hander has posted a 5.27 ERA and 32:18 K:BB in 42.2 major-league innings this season.

Boston recalled Walter from Triple-A Worcester on Friday, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.

Enmanuel Valdez is the other September call-up for the Red Sox. The 26-year-old Walter holds a 3.07 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and 9:4 K:BB through 14.2 relief innings in the majors this season.

Toronto transferred Danner (oblique) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day injured list Friday, Kaitlyn McGrath of The Athletic reports.

Danner suffered a left oblique strain in mid-August and it will wind up being a season-ending injury for the 24-year-old right-hander. He pitched well this summer in the upper minors and should be in the conversation for an Opening Day bullpen job leading into 2024.

Toronto activated Green (elbow) from the 60-day injured list Friday, Kaitlyn McGrath of The Athletic reports.

Green is recovered from Tommy John surgery and all set to make his Blue Jays debut after working to a 1.46 ERA and 15:1 K:BB in 12.1 minor-league rehab innings between Low-A Dunedin and Triple-A Buffalo. The hard-throwing 32-year-old right-hander could work his way into a high-leverage bullpen role while Erik Swanson (back) is sidelined.

Barlow was designated for assignment by the Royals on Friday.

Barlow has been lit up for 16 runs -- 13 earned -- in 12.2 innings of relief at the Triple-A level since the Royals claimed him off waivers from the Rangers in early August. The 27-year-old is off the 40-man roster and back in DFA limbo.

Kansas City recalled McArthur from Triple-A Omaha on Friday.

McArthur has given up 12 earned runs through his first seven major-league innings this season. The 26-year-old right-hander figures to operate in a low-leverage role as he gets another look in the Royals' bullpen.

The Angels recalled Wantz from Triple-A Salt Lake on Friday.

Wantz returns to the majors as a middle-relief option with rosters expanding to 28. The right-hander has registered a 4.56 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 22:9 K:BB through 23.2 big-league innings this year.

The Angels recalled Reyes from Triple-A Salt Lake on Friday.

Reyes has allowed six runs (five earned) in 6.2 major-league innings this season, but the Angels need bullpen depth after Matt Moore, Dominic Leone and Reynaldo Lopez were claimed off waivers.

The Angels recalled Ingram from Triple-A Salt Lake on Friday.

Ingram has allowed four earned runs on five hits and two walks across his first 2.1 major-league innings (two appearances) this season. The 26-year-old left-hander figures to work in a low-leverage role.

The Angels recalled Herget from Triple-A Salt Lake on Friday.

Herget was excellent for the Angels in 2022 but has struggled to a 5.82 ERA in 17 major-league innings this year. The right-hander will likely operate in a low-leverage relief role.
