Fields was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Monday.

As expected, the Dodgers have opted to send Fields to Oklahoma City. He's been a fantastic option from the bullpen at the Triple-A level this season, posting a dominant 1.65 ERA and 0.95 WHIP.

The Mets have recalled Edgin from Triple-A Las Vegas, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Edgin has been pitching really well at Triple-A, accumulating a 2.13 ERA with 11 strikeouts in 12.2 innings over his last 10 outings. He will head back to New York where he hasn't pitched since 2014. Edgin owns a 3.20 ERA in 81.2 career major league innings.

Adleman was activated from the 15-day disabled list and optioned to Triple-A Louisville, Zach Buchanan of the Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

in 19.1 innings of work in Cincinnati, Adleman accumulated a 3.72 ERA with 16 strikeouts. He will head back to Triple-A where he owned a 3.16 ERA in 42.2 innings. The 28-year-old will most likely rejoin the big league club when rosters expand in September.

Gearrin threw a scoreless inning in a rehab outing on Monday for Triple-A Sacramento, Alex Pavlovic of of CSN Bay Area reports.

If his rehab continues to go well without any setbacks, Gearrin is expected to rejoin the Giants at some point later this week. Gearrin won't likely pitch in many high-leverage situations with the recent acquisition of left-hander Will Smith from the Brewers.

The Cardinals have optioned Kiekhefer to Triple-A Memphis, Jenifer Langosch of MLB.com reports.

Kiekhefer pitched two scoreless innings for the Cardinals since being recalled on July 26. The 27-year-old will head back to Triple-A Memphis where he sports a 2.00 ERA in 27 innings of relief work. Look for him to rejoin the team when rosters expand in September.

Garcia has been recalled by the Phillies on Tuesday.

The 29-year-old has been solid this season for Triple-A Lehigh Valley, posting a 2.58 ERA with 43 strikeouts in 45.1 innings. He will take the place of Andrew Bailey, who was designated for assignment by the Phillies.

Nelson (6-10) lasted just four innings while allowing six runs on eight hits and four walks with four strikeouts in Monday's loss at San Diego.

Nelson allowed just one run in the the first four innings, but gave up five more in the fifth without recording a single out. That's 14 runs allowed in just 8.2 innings over the last two starts for the slumping right-hander. It's going to be tough to trust Nelson on the road Sunday against the same Arizona squad that just roughed him up in his previous outing.

Moore will join the Giants in Philadelphia on Tuesday, Henry Schulman of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Although Moore will be with the Giants, he's not going to make a start Tuesday. At this point in time, the team has yet to announce how they'll adjust their rotation to make room for the southpaw. Moore has improved in recent contests, as he's posted a 1.60 ERA and 1.10 WHIP over his last five starts (33.2 innings).

De La Rosa (elbow) will throw batting practice Tuesday, Jack Magruder of Fanragsports.com reports.

There was no update as to when De La Rosa will return, but it appears that he's been able to progress without any setbacks, as he's scheduled to throw batting practice Tuesday. His next step will be likely be throwing a bullpen session, contingent upon how he feels after Tuesday's workout.

Belisle allowed four runs with 13 strikeouts over 14.2 innings during July.

The 12-year vet has been extremely efficient this year, owning a career best in ERA (1.98) and second-best WHIP (1.10). Even with his stellar play in middle relief, Belisle has seen no save chances this season, and if there was ever any path to that role, it just closed down with the Nationals' acquisition of former Pirates closer Mark Melancon.
