Graterol (shoulder) was activated from the 60-day injured list ahead of Monday's game against the Phillies, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Graterol joined the club earlier in the day after finishing up a rehab assignment with Triple-A Oklahoma City, and he'll be available out of the bullpen Monday evening following this latest move. The 25-year-old has yet to appear in a big-league game this season but was excellent a year ago for LA, posting a 1.20 ERA and 0.97 WHIP with a 48:10 K:BB and seven saves in eight chances over 67.1 frames.

Treinen was moved to the 15-day injured list Monday due to left hip discomfort, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

It's unknown as to when this injury first surfaced for Treinen, but it's significant enough to shut him down for at least the next 15 days. Brusdar Graterol (shoulder) was activated from the 60-day IL in a corresponding move.

Graterol (shoulder) returned from his rehab assignment with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Monday and has a "good chance" of being activated from the injured list this week, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Graterol has completed eight minor-league rehab appearances and has joined the Dodgers in Los Angeles. It's unclear when exactly he'll be available to pitch for the team, but he's trending toward being reinstated during the Dodgers' six-game homestand that begins Monday against Philadelphia. Graterol has yet to make his 2024 debut for the Dodgers.

Beck (arm) is scheduled to begin a rehab assignment Thursday with Triple-A Sacramento, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Beck is finally ready for his first game action of 2024 after he was diagnosed early in spring training with an aneurysm in his upper right arm that required vascular surgery. He was cleared to resume throwing in early May and had been building up slowly over the last three months, but the Giants evidently came away encouraged with how he fared since he resumed facing hitters. Though Beck had been in line to compete for a rotation spot heading into the spring, he'll prepare for a relief role while he's on his rehab assignment. Beck has two minor-league options remaining, so the Giants could opt to keep him with Sacramento upon activating him from the 60-day injured list if they aren't satisfied with his results during his rehab assignment.

The Marlins announced Monday that Sanchez (shoulder) continues to increase the intensity of his throwing during bullpen sessions, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

Sanchez remains at the Marlins' spring training facility in Jupiter, Fla. as he completes his recovery from right shoulder inflammation, which forced him to the injured list June 2. He's been throwing bullpen sessions for more than a month now, but given Sanchez's long history of shoulder problems, the Marlins are understandably proceeding cautiously with him before clearing him to face hitters. Sanchez still has a chance to make it back from the IL before the end of August, but he may not have sufficient time to get ramped back up for a starting role.

Simpson (elbow) is scheduled to begin a rehab assignment Tuesday with Single-A Jupiter, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

Simpson had already been rehabbing at the Marlins' facility in Jupiter, Fla., and after throwing two innings of live batting practice last Wednesday, he's been given the green light to make a one-inning rehab appearance Tuesday. The left-hander has been out since late April while recovering from surgery to address left elbow neuritis and will require multiple rehab appearances before being activated from the 60-day injured list.

Martinez will start Monday's game against the Marlins in Miami.

Martinez will draw his first start since May 22, but he had already been filling the fifth spot in the rotation after he worked four innings in bulk relief behind opener Tony Santillan in the Reds' 6-3 win over the Cubs last Tuesday. He'll be taking the hill on just two days' rest after covering an inning out of the bullpen Friday against the Giants, but Martinez shouldn't be operating under any significant restrictions since he tossed just 17 pitches in that appearance. Over his prior five starts this season, Martinez turned in a 7.36 ERA across 25.2 innings.

Miami claimed de Geus off waivers from Seattle on Monday and optioned him to Triple-A Jacksonville.

De Geus will reclaim a 40-man roster spot with his new organization after the Mariners designated him for assignment over the weekend. The 26-year-old righty had made four appearances out of the Seattle bullpen but had otherwise spent most of the 2024 season at Triple-A Tacoma, with whom he logged a 6.60 ERA in 30 innings.

Davis agreed to a minor-league contract with the Padres on Monday, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.

Davis elected free agency Saturday after being cast off San Diego's 40-man roster and clearing waivers, but he'll return to the organization on a minor-league deal. The 31-year-old is likely to report to Triple-A El Paso, with whom he's logged a 3.10 ERA across 29 innings this season.

Vesia (2-3) earned the win over Oakland on Sunday, striking out two batters in a perfect inning of work.

Vesia entered in the seventh inning and struck out two of the three batters he faced, tossing a total of 15 pitches. The impressive frame earned him credit for the win in a contest during which starter River Ryan completed 4.2 innings. Vesia notched five saves between May 6 and July 6, but he hasn't been used in a save situation since. He remains one of the Dodgers' top high-leverage options though, and he's recorded nine holds along with the five saves while posting a 1.88 ERA, 0.98 WHIP and 65:22 K:BB over 48 innings on the season.
