Pivetta will start for the Red Sox on Tuesday against the Yankees, Alex Speier of The Boston Globe reports.

Pivetta will transition back into a rotation role over the final three weeks of the regular season after James Paxton was officially shut down Sunday due to right knee inflammation. The 30-year-old holds a 4.54 ERA and 150:47 K:BB through 117 innings (12 starts, 22 relief appearances) this season with Boston.

The Marlins selected Castano's contract from Triple-A Jacksonville on Sunday, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

Castano made an appearance for the Marlins in early April and was designated for assignment in June, but he'll rejoin the 26-man and 40-man rosters ahead of Sunday's series finale in Philadelphia. The 28-year-old could be a long-relief option Sunday behind opener Steven Okert, though Bryan Hoeing is also an option to cover bulk innings.

Englert (hip) was pulled off his rehab assignment Sunday to undergo further medical evaluation, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

Englert had allowed nine earned runs on 16 hits and four walks through 11.1 innings of work with Triple-A Toledo. He's been on the major-league injured list since late July due to left hip tightness and now seems doubtful to make it back to the bigs this year.

Boston recalled Robertson from Triple-A Worcester on Sunday, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.

Robertson has been torched for 14 runs -- 11 earned -- through his first 14.1 major-league innings this season, but the Red Sox need a fresh bullpen arm leading into Sunday's series finale against the Orioles.

Detroit optioned White to Triple-A Toledo on Sunday.

White, 24, has posted a 5.09 ERA and 44:15 K:BB through his first 40.2 major-league innings this year. Sawyer Gipson-Long is up from Triple-A Toledo in a corresponding move to start Sunday's series finale against the White Sox.

Boston optioned Jacques to Triple-A Worcester on Sunday, Rob Bradford of WEEI.com reports.

Garrett Whitlock (personal) is being activated from the bereavement list in a corresponding roster move. Jacques, 28, has registered a 5.06 ERA, 1.58 WHIP and 20:10 K:BB across his first 26.2 major-league innings this year.

Sewald picked up the save in Saturday's win over the Cubs, allowing one unearned run on one hit over one inning. He did not record any strikeouts or walks.

Sewald entered the game with a two-run lead in the bottom of the 10th and retired the first two batters before giving up an RBI single to Cody Bellinger to cut the lead to one run. The right-hander then got Dansby Swanson to foul out for the final out of the game, giving Sewald his fourth save this month. He's now converted 11 of his last 12 save opportunities, though he's failed to record a strikeout in three straight appearances.

The Yankees recalled Misiewicz from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Sunday.

Misiewicz was claimed off waivers from the Tigers in early July and will get his first major-league opportunity with New York after posting a 3.91 ERA and 30:12 K:BB in 25.1 innings of work for their Triple-A affiliate.

The Yankees recalled Bowman from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Sunday.

Bowman is up in the majors for the first time since 2019 after pitching to a 3.86 ERA and 55:29 K:BB across 56 innings this summer at the Triple-A level. The 32-year-old right-hander figures to operate in a middle-relief role for New York.

Vines was optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett on Sunday.

Vines was called up by Atlanta on Wednesday and will head back to the minors after he delivered three solid frames of long relief Saturday against Pittsburgh. The 25-year-old has pitched well in his three big-league appearances this season with a 3.27 ERA and 0.91 WHIP over 11 innings, so he could receive another look during the closing weeks of the season.
