Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said Friday that Graveman (hip) will be activated from the injured list, Jack Sommers of SI.com reports.

Graveman has been on the shelf since June 9 due to a right hip impingement and began a rehab assignment earlier this week. He threw a scoreless inning with the Diamondbacks' rookie-level Arizona Complex League squad Tuesday. Jalen Beeks (back) is headed to the injured list in a corresponding move.

Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said Friday that Beeks will be placed on the injured list due to lower back inflammation, Jack Sommers of SI.com reports.

Beeks hasn't pitched since July 6, and it's unclear when the injury popped up. The left-hander was expected to be in the mix for save opportunities while Shelby Miller (forearm) is on the shelf. However, it seems as though Kevin Ginkel will hold down closer duties. Kendall Graveman (hip) is expected to be activated from the injured list in a corresponding move.

Borucki's (back) rehab assignment was transferred to Triple-A Indianapolis on Friday.

Borucki threw a perfect inning in a rehab outing at Low-A Bradenton, and he'll advance to Indianapolis. The 31-year-old reliever should need only one or two more minor-league appearances before being activated, though Pittsburgh will likely wait until after the All-Star break to add Borucki to the active roster.

The Brewers placed Ashby on the paternity list Friday.

The left-hander will step away from the team ahead of the final series before the All-Star break in order to be with his growing family. Ashby should be back with the Brewers by the start of the second half next week.

The Pirates selected Ramirez's contract from Triple-A Indianapolis on Friday.

Ramirez will get his first taste of MLB action this season, as he is getting called up after re-signing a minor-league contract with Pittsburgh on July 6. The 30-year-old has logged a 3.07 ERA and a 39:11 K:BB across 29.1 innings with Indianapolis this season. Jared Triolo was optioned to Triple-A, and Matt Gorski was designated for assignment in corresponding moves.

The Mets optioned Hagenman to Triple-A Syracuse on Friday.

Hagenman will surrender his spot on the 26-man roster to Kodai Senga (hamstring), who has been activated from the injured list. In four MLB appearances this season, Hagenman has posted a 5.11 ERA and a 13:1 K:BB across 12.1 innings.

The Dodgers designated Davis for assignment Friday.

The right-hander was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City last weekend and will now lose his place on Los Angeles' 40-man roster. Davis surrendered 13 earned runs over six innings across his five outings with the Dodgers this season.

Atlanta claimed Wentz off waivers Friday, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports.

Wentz was designated for assignment by the Twins on Wednesday, and he'll get a fresh start. He replaces Kevin Herget on the 40-man roster. Wentz has appeared in 25 MLB games this season, 19 with Pittsburgh and six with Minnesota. He's posted a 6.88 ERA and a 28:20 K:BB across 34 total innings.

Morejon (7-3) earned the win over Arizona on Thursday, allowing one hit and walking one batter while notching two strikeouts over 1.2 scoreless innings.

Starter Randy Vasquez lasted just 4.1 frames, and Morejon took over with two Diamondbacks on base and one out in the fifth. The left-hander got out of the jam by striking out Josh Naylor and getting Eugenio Suarez to pop out, then tossed a scoreless sixth despite allowing two baserunners. Morejon was credited with the win -- his seventh of the campaign, most among MLB relief pitchers -- as the Padres held on to claim a 4-3 victory. While bullpen mates Robert Suarez and Jason Adam are going to the All-Star Game for their first-half accomplishments, there's an argument to be made that Morejon is just as deserving. In addition to the seven wins, he's posted a dominant 1.71 ERA and 0.83 WHIP along with a 39:9 K:BB while notching two saves and 12 holds over 45 appearances spanning 42 innings.

Hall will serve as an opener ahead of Quinn Priester for Friday's game against the Nationals, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Hall will make his third start of the season. The southpaw threw three innings in each of his other two appearances as an opener. The 26-year-old has completed at least two innings in seven of his 10 appearances in 2025 and has thrown five consecutive perfect innings.
