The Brewers signed Wilson to a one-year contract Friday, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.

It's a homecoming of sorts for Wilson, who spent the 2023-2024 seasons in Milwaukee. Wilson has made three appearances in the majors between the Phillies and Cubs this season, allowing seven runs with an 8:2 K:BB over 9.2 innings. He'll likely be used in long relief.

The Nationals selected Cosgrove's contract from Triple-A Rochester on Friday, Spencer Nusbaum of The Athletic reports.

Cosgrove was acquired via trade from the Astros last week and is now joining up with the big club. The lefty reliever has logged a 4.15 ERA and 32:22 K:BB across 30.1 innings of work at the Triple-A level this season.

The Pirates will recalled Harrington from Triple-A Indianapolis on Friday, Alex Stumpf of MLB.com reports.

Harrington has had a rough season at Indianapolis, posting a 6.52 ERA and 56:26 K:BB across 58 frames. He's been used as a multi-inning reliever over the past several weeks, so Harrington will give the Pittsburgh bullpen some length.

The Pirates recalled Kelly from Triple-A Indianapolis Friday, Alex Stumpf of MLB.com reports.

Kelly made his major-league debut earlier this season for Pittsburgh, allowing two runs over 2.1 innings in his lone appearance. The 22-year-old has logged a 4.85 ERA and 54:33 K:BB over 68.2 frames at Indianapolis in 2026. Kelly is presumably up to provide the bullpen with some length.

Duran earned a save against the Reds on Thursday, allowing one hit and striking out two batters over one scoreless inning.

Duran entered in the ninth inning tasked with protecting a fragile 1-0 lead. The veteran closer allowed the first two batters he faced to reach base via a single and a hit-by-pitch, but he was able to slam the door by retiring the following three hitters, including two by strikeout. Duran has converted seven straight save opportunities, posting a dominant 17:1 K:BB over 10 innings spanning 10 appearances in that span. He's headed to -the All-Star Game having gone 23-for-24 in save chances with a 1.42 ERA so far this season.

Sewald struck out two in a perfect inning to earn the save in Thursday's 3-1 win over the Padres.

Sewald had allowed at least one baserunners in each of his previous seven outings, but he created no drama Thursday to convert his 21st save of the year. The veteran reliever has earned seven of those saves since the start of June, but he's also allowed seven runs over 11.2 innings during that span. For the season, he has a 4.36 ERA, 0.91 WHIP and 37:8 K:BB across 33 innings.

Triple-A Lehigh Valley activated Holman (undisclosed) from the 7-day injured list Wednesday.

After completing a rehab assignment with Single-A Clearwater, Holman gave up three runs (one earned) on three hits and no walks while striking out one in 1.1 innings Wednesday in his return to Triple-A ball. Through 13.2 minor-league innings this year, the 26-year-old right-hander has a 6.59 ERA, 1.90 WHIP and 20:5 K:BB.

Brebbia signed a minor-league contract with the Rockies on Thursday, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

Brebbia elected free agency after being DFA'd by the Rockies last week, and after testing his value in the open market, he's now back in the organization on a minor-league deal. The 36-year-old righty will report to Triple-A Albuquerque, where he has thrown nine shutout innings while striking out 10 batters without conceding a walk.

The Diamondbacks recalled Abner from Triple-A Reno on Thursday, John Gambadoro of Arizona Sports 98.7 FM reports.

Abner has permitted seven runs with a 4:4 K:BB over 6.1 innings in his three appearances in the majors this season. The 24-year-old gives the team a fresh bullpen arm as the Diamondbacks downshift to four starting pitchers on the roster heading into the All-Star break.

The Nationals placed Lord on the 15-day injured list Thursday with left side tightness.

Lord last pitched Sunday, when he was rocked for five runs over 1.1 innings. His absence could end up being around the 15-day minimum if he is indeed only dealing with tightness, but the Nationals may need to send Lord for imaging to see if he has a strain.
