The Cardinals recalled Naile from Triple-A Memphis on Tuesday.

Naile was optioned to Triple-A on July 5 and has since put up a 2.25 ERA and 1.38 WHIP with eight strikeouts across eight innings. He has yet to find similar success in the majors, but the Cards will call on Naile to provide depth to their bullpen after losing a handful of players ahead of the trade deadline.

The Cardinals added King to the 26-man active roster Tuesday.

King was in Triple-A when the Rangers traded him to St. Louis as part of the Jordan Montgomery deal, and he'll return to the majors as he switches organizations. The 28-year-old lefty holds a 5.79 ERA and 1.61 WHIP through 18.2 innings in the big leagues this year.

The Diamondbacks designated Sulser for assignment Tuesday.

Sulser surrendered one run on two hits during his first appearance since returning from the 60-day injured list, and he'll now once again be taken off Arizona's 40-man roster. Given the lack of success Sulser has experienced overall since 2022, it's possible he clears waivers and is sent outright to Triple-A Reno.

The Diamondbacks recalled Mantiply from Triple-A Reno on Tuesday, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Mantiply has taken a major step back this season, accumulating a 5.74 ERA and 1.09 WHIP through 15.2 innings in the majors this season (2.85 ERA in 2022). He hasn't fared well in Triple-A either, but he'll still be called upon to provide Arizona's bullpen with a fresh arm. Peter Strzelecki, who was acquired in a trade with the Brewers on Tuesday, was optioned in a corresponding move.

Curtiss was recalled from Triple-A Syracuse on Tuesday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

The right-hander was sent to Syracuse in mid-June and will rejoin the big club after the Mets traded away Dominic Leone on Tuesday. Curtiss has a 4.08 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 11:6 K:BB across 17.2 frames in the majors this year.

Nardi (triceps) was activated Tuesday from the 15-day injured list, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

Nardi will return to the Marlins' bullpen Tuesday night against the Phillies after missing three weeks with left triceps inflammation. The 24-year-old southpaw has registered a steady 3.19 ERA and 48:11 K:BB through 36.2 major-league innings this season.

Colorado activated Kinley (elbow) from the 60-day injured list Tuesday.

Finally recovered from his June 2022 flexor tendon surgery, Kinley will join the Rockies bullpen ahead of Tuesday's game against the Padres. He got hammered in his first minor-league rehab appearance back in early July but rallied for a 3.68 ERA and 9:1 K:BB over his next seven outings covering 7.1 innings. Prior to going under the knife last season, Kinley was a valuable setup man for Colorado, compiling a 0.75 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and 27:6 K:BB in 24 innings.

The Mets acquired Bickford and Adam Kolarek from the Dodgers on Tuesday in exchange for cash considerations, Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports.

Los Angeles designated Bickford for assignment over the weekend, but the 28-year-old righty appears set to get another look in the majors with the Mets. Bickford has posted a 5.14 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 48:26 K:BB through 42 innings of relief this season at the major-league level.

The Padres acquired Barlow from the Royals on Tuesday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.comreports.

Barlow has 13 saves this season to go along with an ugly 5.35 ERA, but Kansas City was still able to cash in at the trade deadline. The right-hander pitched to a 2.18 ERA last season and could fill a setup role for closer Josh Hader if he can rediscover that form with the Friars.

The Dodgers acquired Yarbrough from the Royals on Tuesday in exchange for minor-league infielders Devin Mann and Derlin Figueroa, Bob Nightengale of USA Today reports.

Yarbrough, 31, has a 4.24 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 29 strikeouts in 51 innings this season while working as both a starter and a bulk reliever. He will likely occupy a long-relief role while making the occasional spot start for the Dodgers, who have been relying on youngsters Bobby Miller, Emmet Sheehan and Michael Grove to round out the back end of the rotation but may be keen on managing their innings down the stretch.
