The Blue Jays outrighted Estrada to Triple-A Buffalo on Monday.

He's no longer on the 40-man roster, but Estrada will remain in the organization after passing through waivers. The 27-year-old righty holds a 6.64 ERA and 19:11 K:BB across 20.1 frames in parts of two seasons for Toronto.

Foley struck out one in a scoreless inning during Sunday's 13-7 loss to the Rockies.

Foley entered the game in the ninth inning and threw five of his 11 pitches for strikes en route to his second straight scoreless outing. The 30-year-old right-hander has appeared in six games this month, during which he has posted a 3.38 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 4:4 K:BB in 5.1 innings. Overall, he owns a 4.66 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 6:5 K:BB across 9.2 innings this season.

The Reds selected Emanuel's contract from Triple-A Louisville on Monday.

Emanuel was pitching in independent ball a couple weeks ago when the Reds signed him to a minor-league contract. He struck out eight over six innings of one-run ball in his lone start with Louisville, and the 34-year-old southpaw will now join the Reds to make a start in the first game of Monday's doubleheader against the Cardinals. The start is the first of Emanuel's big-league career, after his first 22 appearances in the majors came in relief.

The Reds designated Marinaccio for assignment Monday.

Marinaccio was scooped up off waivers earlier this month and is now headed back to the waiver wire after getting roughed up for 10 runs over 5.1 innings covering four appearances for Cincinnati. His removal from the 40-man roster clears a spot for the arrival of Kent Emanuel.

The Reds recalled McCambley from Triple-A Louisville on Monday.

He'll serve as the 27th man on the roster for Monday's doubleheader against the Cardinals. McCambley has logged 7.2 innings across seven appearances for the Reds this season, allowing four runs with a 7:6 K:BB. He will likely be sent back to Louisville following the twin bill.

The Royals outrighted Morgan to Triple-A Omaha on Sunday.

Morgan was booted off the 40-man roster last week, but he'll remain in the organization after passing through waivers unclaimed. The right-handed reliever holds a 5.12 ERA and 1.71 WHIP across 19.1 innings in the majors this season.

Santillan (oblique) could be activated to the major-league roster later this week, Mike Petraglia of MLB.com reports.

Santillan worked a scoreless inning as the opener in Sunday's game and will make at least one more appearance either Tuesday or Wednesday. If all goes well, the right-hander could rejoin the Reds at the end of the week. He's made two scoreless appearances with the Bats, striking out three over two innings.

Chapman triggered a vesting option in his contract when he pitched a scoreless ninth inning in Saturday's 4-0 win over the Pirates.

The appearance was a non-save situation for Chapman, but it took him beyond the 40-inning mark and triggered an option for 2027. Pending an end-of-year physical, the left-hander will be under contract with Boston for another season and make $13 million.

Munoz picked up the save Sunday against the Astros. He allowed no hits and a walk while striking out two over a scoreless inning.

Munoz issued a one-out walk but was otherwise able to stifle the Astros' offense in the ninth inning to secure a road win for the Mariners. It was a much-needed positive outing for the right-hander, who imploded for five runs (four earned) in the 10th inning of Friday's loss. Overall, it's been a down year for Munoz, who owns a 4.37 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 72:18 K:BB across 45.1 innings while converting 22 of 29 save opportunities.

Newcomb recorded his fourth save of the season Sunday against the Tigers, striking out two and walking one over 2.1 scoreless innings.

Newcomb entered with two outs and a one-run lead in the seventh after Huascar Brazoban had already allowed a run in the frame. With Grant Taylor, Jordan Hicks and Bryan Hudson all having pitched the night before, Newcomb was asked to finish the game and did so with ease, allowing only a walk across the eight batters he faced. He secured his fourth save of the season and extended his streak to 10.1 innings without allowing an earned run. Newcomb owns a 2.51 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 64:25 K:BB across 68 innings this season while adding 10 holds.
