The White Sox optioned Peralta to Triple-A Charlotte on Monday.

Peralta will give up his spot on the 26-man active roster to make room for right-hander Dominic Leone (elbow), who was reinstated from the 60-day injured list. During his latest stint in the majors, Peralta made three relief appearances and didn't allow a run in two of the outings. However, he yielded four runs in one-third of an inning against the Royals on Wednesday.

The White Sox optioned Berroa to Triple-A Charlotte on Monday.

Berroa was recalled from Charlotte on Friday and surrendered three runs in 1.2 innings for the White Sox across two appearances. With Ky Bush being called up from Charlotte to start Monday's game against the Athletics and Dominic Leone (elbow) coming off the 60-day injured list, Berroa will give up his spot on the 26-man active roster.

The White Sox reinstated Leone (elbow) from the 60-day injured list Monday.

Leone had been on the shelf since May 20 due to right elbow inflammation, but he'll slot back into the White Sox bullpen after making four rehab appearances at Triple-A Charlotte. Before he was shut down with the injury, Leone compiled a 7.04 ERA in 15.1 innings. He'll likely have to settle for low-leverage work out of the bullpen now that he's healthy again.

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.

Lambert (shoulder) was returned from his rehab assignment Saturday, MLB.com reports.

Lambert began a rehab assignment July 19 and made a second appearance on the 23rd. The club provided no additional information except that his shoulder strain has been aggravated. However, Lambert's season is likely in jeopardy as he has been on the injured list since March 28.

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.

Leiter (3-4) hit a batter but allowed no hits and notched three strikeouts over 1.1 scoreless innings to earn the win in relief Sunday versus the Blue Jays.

Leiter entered the contest in the top of the ninth inning with the go-ahead run on first base and struck out Joey Loperfido to end the frame. The contest eventually went into an extra inning, and Leiter returned for the 10th, notching two more strikeouts and working around a two-out hit batsman. The right-hander subsequently was credited for the win after DJ LeMahieu stroked a walk-off single in the bottom of the frame. Since joining the Yankees on July 30, Leiter has allowed one run in four innings while posting a 5:1 K:BB and picking up a hold along with Sunday's victory.

Shreve signed a minor-league contract with the Rockies on Sunday and gave up three earned runs on three hits over an inning out of the bullpen for Triple-A Albuquerque in the affiliate's 21-5 loss to Las Vegas.

Shreve is now with his third organization of the season after he previously signed minor-league deals with the Rangers and Yankees before opting out of those contracts. He posted a 1.64 ERA and 0.77 WHIP across 22 innings at Triple-A Round Rock and a 2.45 ERA and 0.82 WHIP in 11 innings at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre before enduring his worst outing of the season in his debut for the Rockies' Triple-A affiliate. All three of the runs he allowed came on solo home runs.
