Zak Kent SP | TEX
Guardians' Zak Kent: Summoned from Triple-A
The Guardians recalled Kent from Triple-A Columbus on Sunday.
Kent will be up with the Guardians for the sixth time this season, though he made just four relief appearances over his previous five stints in the majors and gave up five earned runs across 7.1 innings. He'll likely see most of his usage in lower-leverage spots during the final month of the season.

Noah Davis SP | PIT
Twins' Noah Davis: Rejoins big-league bullpen
The Twins recalled Davis from Triple-A St. Paul on Monday.
Davis has made seven appearances in the majors this season between the Dodgers and Twins, getting bludgeoned for 19 runs (18 earned) over nine innings. He'll provide Minnesota with a fresh bullpen arm but is unlikely to be used in high-leverage spots.

Justin Hagenman P | NYM
Mets' Justin Hagenman: Moves up from Triple-A
The Mets recalled Hagenman from Triple-A Syracuse on Monday.
Hagenman will provide the New York bullpen with another right-handed option who's capable of covering multiple innings, but his usage will likely be limited to lower-leverage spots. Through seven appearances (one start) with the Mets this season, Hagenman has submitted a 3.26 ERA, 0.93 WHIP and 20:2 K:BB over 19.1 innings.

Zack Kelly RP | BOS
Red Sox's Zack Kelly: Receives September call-up
The Red Sox recalled Kelly from Triple-A Worcester on Monday, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports.
Kelly will be back with the Red Sox for the first time since late June, as he had been on the shelf throughout July with an oblique injury before being activated and optioned to Worcester on Aug. 2. Since getting reinstated from the IL, Kelly had posted a meager 5.56 ERA and 1.32 WHIP in 11.1 innings out of the Worcester bullpen, so he'll likely be ticketed for low-leverage relief work with Boston.

Joe Jimenez RP | ATL
Braves' Joe Jimenez: Won't pitch in 2025
Atlanta manager Brian Snitker said Aug. 14 that Jimenez (knee) won't return from the 60-day injured list this season, MLB.com reports.
Jimenez will wind up missing the entire 2025 season after he underwent surgery last November to address cartilage damage in his left knee. The reliever initially appeared on track to join Atlanta at some point in the second half after he resumed throwing off a mound in early July, but he experienced a setback with his knee about a month ago that resulted in him getting shut down from throwing. Jimenez will turn his focus to getting healthy for spring training as he heads into the final season of his three-year, $26 million deal in 2026.

Osvaldo Bido SP | MIA
Athletics' Osvaldo Bido: Used in bullpen Saturday
Bido struck out a batter and allowed two earned runs on three hits and no walks over 2.1 innings of relief in Saturday's 9-3 loss to the Rangers.
Bido made a three-inning start in his last appearance Tuesday against the Tigers, but he shifted back to the bullpen over the weekend and looks poised to serve as a reliever moving forward. Rookie Mason Barnett entered the Athletics rotation Saturday, and Luis Severino (oblique) is set to be activated from the 15-day injured list Tuesday, so the team won't have a starting spot available for Bido.
