  • Diamondbacks' J.P. Feyereisen: Joins active roster

    The Diamondbacks selected Feyereisen's contract from Triple-A Reno on Saturday.

    Feyereisen has been great to start the season in Triple-A, surrendering just one earned run over 9.1 innings while striking out seven batters and walking two. He'll now head to Arizona to help provide bullpen depth with Joe Mantiply and Bryce Jarvis moving to the minors and A.J. Puk (elbow) moving to the IL.

  • Drey Jameson RP | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Drey Jameson: Up from Triple-A

    The Diamondbacks recalled Jameson from Triple-A Reno on Saturday.

    Jameson will be joined by J.P. Feyereisen and Juan Morillo in moving to Arizona to replace Joe Mantiply, Bryce Jarvis and the injured A.J. Puk (elbow). Jameson has been effective in seven outings with Reno, giving up two runs on 6.2 innings while punching out 10 batters and walking none.

  • A.J. Puk RP | ARI

    Diamondbacks' A.J. Puk: Placed on injured list

    Puk was placed on the 15-day injured list Saturday with left elbow inflammation.

    Puk secured his fourth save of the season during his most recent outing against Miami on Thursday, but he appears to have come away from his appearance with elbow troubles. The left-hander will now be sidelined for at least 15 days, though the Diamondbacks will have a better idea of how long his recovery will take once he undergoes an MRI on Monday, per Jody Jackson of Bally Sports Arizona. Justin Martinez will likely become the primary option for saves while Puk is out.

  • Bryce Jarvis RP | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Bryce Jarvis: Relegated to Triple-A

    The Diamondbacks optioned Jarvis to Triple-A Reno on Saturday.

    Jarvis was lit up for three runs in just two-thirds of an inning Friday against the Cubs, elevating his ERA to 7.36 across 7.1 frames. He'll look to right the ship at Reno, and his past success in the majors suggests that he should be able to return to Arizona relatively quickly.

  • Joe Mantiply RP | TOR

    Diamondbacks' Joe Mantiply: Sent down to Reno

    The Diamondbacks optioned Mantiply to Triple-A Reno on Saturday.

    Mantiply has struggled mightily in the big leagues this season, giving up 13 earned runs in just 7.1 innings. He'll attempt to get back on track in Triple-A, though the D-backs may want to see him sustain success for an extended period of time before inserting him back into their bullpen.

  • John Brebbia RP | COL

    Tigers' John Brebbia: Lands on injured list

    The Tigers placed Brebbia on the 15-day injured list Saturday with a right triceps strain.

    Brebbia has been very effective out of the bullpen for Detroit, allowing just one earned run through nine innings. However, he'll now be held out for at least the next 15 days while he recovers from his injury. Bailey Horn will come up from Triple-A Toledo to fill the open spot on the pitching staff.

  • Chad Green RP | TOR

    Blue Jays' Chad Green: Picks up second hold

    Green retired the only batter he faced Friday to record his second hold of the season in a 3-1 win over the Mariners.

    The right-hander got the final out of the seventh inning, getting Ben Williamson to ground out with a runner in scoring position. Green has had an effective start to the season, posting a 3.12 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 8:2 K:BB through 8.2 innings.

  • Luke Weaver RP | PIT

    Yankees' Luke Weaver: Notches second save

    Weaver earned a save against Tampa Bay on Friday, striking out two batters in a perfect inning of work.

    It was a bit curious that manager Aaron Boone went to Weaver and not Devin Williams with the Yankees holding a one-run lead in the ninth inning, though Williams had worked the day before and on three of the previous four days. Weaver proved more than capable of nailing things down, as he threw 12 of 15 pitches for strikes en route to a clean frame and his second save of the year. After some struggles early this season, Williams has rebounded to toss four consecutive scoreless outings, so he remains the Yankees' clear top closer. However, Weaver has shined so far this season with 10 scoreless frames and an 11:5 K:BB over eight outings, and he's clearly the top option for ninth-inning opportunities when Williams is unavailable.

  • Liam Hendriks RP | CHC

    Red Sox's Liam Hendriks: Officially activated

    The Red Sox reinstated Hendriks (elbow) from the injured list Saturday.

    For the first time since signing with the Red Sox before the 2024 season, Hendriks now owns a spot on the active roster. He figures to take on a high-leverage role out of the bullpen after throwing three shutout frames during his rehab assignment, though his chances of claiming the closer job are slim as long as Aroldis Chapman continues to pitch well. Hunter Dobbins was optioned to Triple-A Worcester in a corresponding move.

  • Braves' Enyel De Los Santos: Nabs win Friday

    De Los Santos (1-0) picked up the win Friday over the Twins, tossing 1.2 innings of scoreless relief.

    The journeyman right-hander entered the game with Atlanta down 4-1, and he got rewarded for his strong effort when his offense erupted for five runs in the bottom of the eighth inning. De Los Santos has looked good in middle relief to begin the season, posting a 3.24 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 11:1 K:BB through 8.1 innings, but he has yet to record a save or a hold.
