Marsh (shoulder) will be re-evaluated Tuesday, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.

Marsh's evaluation is following a 10-day shutdown period which was the result of a minor setback he suffered while rehabbing his right shoulder at the beginning of April. A return timeline could come into focus once he's able to restart a throwing program.

Pagan was charged with a blown save in Thursday's 10-inning loss to the Mariners, allowing two runs on two hits in one inning. He struck out two.

It was a nightmarish outing for Pagan, who was tasked with protecting a two-run lead in the ninth. The right-hander would give up a leadoff homer to Cal Raleigh before Randy Arozarena tied the game with another long ball just two pitches later. Pagan, who converted his previous four save chances prior to Thursday, now sports a 2.89 ERA, 0.54 WHIP and 9:1 K:BB through his first 9.1 innings this year. While Pagan should continue to serve as the Reds' primary closer in the short term, he figures to have a short leash as Alexis Diaz has delivered consecutive scoreless outings in his return from the injured list.

Puk struck out one and allowed a hit during a scoreless ninth inning to earn the save Thursday against the Marlins.

Puk was handed a 6-4 lead and managed to escape unscathed after giving up a leadoff double to Griffin Conine. The left-hander has now secured four of Arizona's six saves this season, giving him a slight edge in the closer committee over Justin Martinez, who converted the other two and closed out the seventh inning Thursday. Puk needed 21 pitches to get through the frame and has now thrown 36 pitches over the past two days, which could affect his availability for Friday's series opener versus the Cubs.

Montas (lat) has been playing catch from 90 feet and is expected to begin throwing bullpen sessions in two weeks, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Montas began a throwing program in early April and has been brought along slowly as he works his way back from a high-grade right lat strain. He still has numerous boxes to check off in his rehab program but appears to be tracking toward a season debut in late May or early June, if all goes well.

Foley was placed on the 7-day injured list by Triple-A Toledo on Thursday due a right shoulder strain, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports.

Foley struck out nine and permitted just one hit over 6.2 scoreless innings in his first five appearances with Toledo, but he hadn't pitched in several days and now it's been revealed why. It's not clear how long he might be sidelined, but the former Tigers closer will not be an option for the big club for a while.

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

Hagenman made his MLB debut Wednesday, allowing one earned run while striking out four batters across 3.1 innings in bulk relief. Despite his quality performance, it seems the Mets would still like to see more from the 28-year-old righty in the minors, where he currently holds a 6.97 ERA and 1.88 WHIP. Max Kranick was recalled from Triple-A in a corresponding move.

The Mets recalled Kranick from Triple-A Syracuse on Thursday.

Kranick was just optioned to Syracuse on Wednesday, but the plan was always to bring him back a day later once Jose Siri (leg) officially went on the 10-day injured list. The 27-year-old Kranick has been one of the Mets' best relievers this season, permitting two runs with a 7:1 K:BB over 11.2 innings.

Guenther (back) will begin a rehab assignment with Single-A Lakeland on Thursday, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

Guenther has been on the 7-day injured list all season with Triple-A Toledo due to lumbar spine inflammation. He'll eventually move up to Toledo once deemed ready and could help the Tigers' bullpen at some point later this season.

Tonkin (shoulder) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A St. Paul on Friday, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.

Tonkin landed on the 15-day injured list before the season with a right shoulder strain, but he's ready to test things out in a game setting. Barring a setback, the veteran reliever will have a shot to rejoin the Twins' bullpen before the end of April.

Soriano has an 8.10 ERA, 1.60 WHIP and 8:5 K:BB through 10 innings over six appearances.

The 26-year-old right-hander did pick up a win in extra innings March 29 against the Pirates, but Soriano has zero holds or saves so far as he's been mainly limited to low-leverage duty. He's been tagged for at least one run in four straight outings, and given that he has a minor-league option remaining, he could get bumped down to Triple-A Jacksonville once Declan Cronin (hip) is ready to come off the IL.
