Brogdon (foot) will continue his rehab assignment with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Tuesday, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports.

Brogdon began a rehab assignment at Single-A on Saturday, and after throwing a scoreless inning with two strikeouts, he'll proceed to Triple-A Oklahoma City. It's unclear how many rehab outings Brogdon will require before being activated from the 60-day injured list.

The Brewers activated Megill (back) from the 15-day injured list Tuesday, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Megill's activation appeared imminent when Milwaukee optioned Elvis Peguero to Triple-A Nashville on Monday. Megill -- who's logged 20 saves and a 2.41 ERA -- will move to a setup role now that Devin Williams is healthy.

The Orioles placed Akin on the paternity list Tuesday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

Akin has served as a multi-inning reliver since joining the Orioles active roster Aug. 7, yielding four runs with a 11:0 K:BB across 7.1 innings during that stretch. He'll be away from the team temporarily to be present for the birth of his child. A corresponding move has yet to be announced.

Mlodzinski (shoulder) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Indianapolis on Tuesday, Danny Demilio of PittsburghBaseballNow.com reports.

Mlodzinski has been on the shelf since July 30 with a strained right shoulder, but he's been given the green light to pitch in games. The 25-year-old reliever appears to be on track to return before the start of September.

Holderman (wrist) will start a rehab assignment with Triple-A Indianapolis on Tuesday, Danny Demilio of PittsburghBaseballNow.com reports.

Holderman threw 22-to-25 pitches of live batting practice last Friday and will head to Indianapolis to begin what's expected to be a brief rehab assignment. The right-hander sprained his right wrist Aug. 8 and becomes eligible to return Friday.

Suter (shoulder) had a good bullpen session Monday in Toronto and could begin his rehab assignment by the end of the week, Gordon Wittenmyer of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports. "The international pen was solid. Not unbelievable, but solid," Suter said. "Felt real good."

It's been previously reported that Suter will need three appearances on his rehab assignment, which pushes a potential return date to early September.

The Nationals reinstated Garcia (personal) from the bereavement list Tuesday.

The left-hander spent the past few games on the bereavement list but is back with the Nationals ahead of Tuesday's matchup with the Rockies. Garcia has 11 holds with a 4.80 ERA, 1.31 WHIP and 58:16 K:BB across 45 innings this season.

Triple-A Round Rock placed Robert on its 7-day injured list Aug. 7 with an unspecified injury.

After the Rangers optioned him to Round Rock on July 21, Robert made just one appearance for the Triple-A club before being shut down with the injury. The 29-year-old right-hander has been a standout performer at the back end of the Round Rock bullpen this season, logging a 2.27 ERA, 0.71 WHIP and 41:8 K:BB in 31.2 innings.

Kelly picked up a hold against Seattle on Monday, striking out one batter in a perfect inning of work.

Kelly served as the bridge between starter Gavin Stone (who pitched seven scoreless innings) and Evan Phillips (who handled the ninth for a save). Though Kelly missed over two months from early May to mid-July due to a shoulder injury, he ranks second on the Dodgers with 13 holds. The right-hander has posted a 4.88 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 28:11 K:BB over 24 innings on the campaign.

Matzek (elbow) began a rehab assignment at Triple-A Sacramento last week and has given up two runs (one earned) on one hit and one walk while striking out a batter across two innings over his two appearances.

Matzek had resided on Atlanta's injured list since early May while recovering from elbow inflammation before he was dealt to San Francisco on July 29. The left-hander completed his throwing progression shortly after joining his new organization and is now in the midst of a rehab assignment that could be extended into September if the Giants aren't satisfied with his results at Sacramento. He's scheduled to make his next appearance for the Triple-A club Tuesday, according to MLB.com.
