Washington optioned Loutos to Triple-A Rochester following Sunday's 14-3 loss to the Brewers, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

Loutos pitched two-thirds of an inning in the series finale, surrendering a two-run home run to Brice Turang, which allowed an inherited runner to score. The right-hander also appeared in the series opener Friday, giving up five runs (three earned) on five hits, including a home run. On the season, Loutos now owns an inflated 12.75 ERA and 2.33 WHIP with eight strikeouts over 12 innings in 12 appearances between the Nationals and Dodgers.

The White Sox claimed Peguero off waivers from the Brewers and optioned him to Triple-A Charlotte on Sunday.

The right-hander was demoted to Triple-A Nashville in mid-May and was designated for assignment by Milwaukee on Thursday to make room on the 40-man roster for the club's acquisitions at the trade deadline. Peguero had a 2.98 ERA in 52 big-league appearances last season, though it was accompanied by a 1.54 WHIP.

The White Sox claimed Hudson off waivers from the Brewers and optioned him to Triple-A Charlotte on Sunday.

The left-hander was designated for assignment by Milwaukee on Thursday but was quickly able to find a home on another organization's 40-man roster. Hudson was a key bullpen piece in 2024 with a 1.73 ERA, 0.72 WHIP and 62:17 K:BB across 62.1 innings, but he had a 4.35 ERA in 12 big-league appearances and struggled to a 6.84 ERA at the Triple-A level so far in 2025.

The Rockies recalled Anderson from Triple-A Albuquerque on Sunday.

The right-hander was demoted to Triple-A on Monday but is back with the Rockies with Seth Halvorsen (elbow) landing on the injured list in a corresponding move. Anderson surrendered five earned runs over one innings during his lone appearance with Colorado following his call-up in late July.

The Royals placed Cruz on the 15-day injured list Sunday due to a right shoulder impingement.

Cruz departed Saturday's game against the Blue Jays due to the injury and will be sidelined for at least the next couple of weeks. Daniel Lynch (elbow) was reinstated from the IL in a corresponding move to round out Kansas City's bullpen.

The Rockies placed Halvorsen on the 15-day injured list Sunday due to a right elbow strain.

Halvorsen's elbow acted up Saturday, prompting the Rockies to pull him from the contest midway through Spencer Horwitz's at-bat. Though Dugan Darnell ended up finishing out the contest, Victor Vodnik and Juan Mejia could be the top options for saves while Halvorsen is on the shelf. According to Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post, the right-hander will undergo an MRI on Sunday, and he's likely to miss more than the minimum 15 days. Halvorsen has converted 11 of 14 save chances while providing a 4.99 ERA, 1.56 WHIP and 36:21 K:BB in 39.2 innings on the season.

The Royals reinstated Lynch (elbow) from the 15-day injured list Sunday.

The left-hander has been sidelined nearly a month due to nerve irritation in his elbow, but he's ready to rejoin the Royals after making two rehab appearances in the minors. Lynch primarily works in middle relief but sees occasional high-leverage work with one save and four holds this season. He's been effective through 39 appearances with a 2.59 ERA, though his 1.42 WHIP and 29:22 K:BB could indicate some trouble on the horizon.

The Mets designated Garcia for assignment Sunday.

The right-hander was claimed off waivers by the Mets on July 21, and he pitched well in six appearances with three runs allowed and a 13:3 K:BB over eight innings. Garcia surrendered two earned runs Saturday versus the Giants, however, and has now lost his place on the 26-man active roster and 40-man roster. Austin Warren was called up from Triple-A Syracuse in a corresponding move.

The Mets recalled Warren from Triple-A Syracuse on Sunday.

Warren has had a few brief stints in the majors this season and has given up one earned run with a 4:3 K:BB over 5.1 innings with the Mets. He's been less effective in 24 outings with Syracuse this season with a 5.20 ERA and 1.41 WHIP.

The Yankees placed Loaisiga on the 15-day injured list Sunday due to right mid-back tightness.

The injury presumably surfaced during Loaisiga's appearance against Miami on Friday, when he allowed one hit and plunked a batter while recording just one out. The right-hander will be eligible to be reinstated in mid-August, though a timeline for his return likely won't be established until he meets with the Yankees' team physician back in New York, according to Bryan Hoch of MLB.com.
