MLB Player News

Mills (elbow) underwent Tommy John surgery Wednesday, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.

Mills has been out all season with elbow problems and encountered multiple setbacks along the way. The reliever will now be sidelined, at minimum, until late in the 2024 campaign.

Weiss was recalled from Triple-A Salt Lake on Wednesday.

Weiss made a couple appearances for the Angels back in May, allowing one run in 1.2 innings. He'll be utilized in low-leverage spots out of the bullpen.

Reyes was optioned to Triple-A Salt Lake on Wednesday.

Reyes' latest stint in the majors lasts just one day after he gave up two runs in an appearance Tuesday in San Diego. Zack Weiss is taking his spot in the bullpen.

Miami outrighted Villalobos to Double-A Pensacola on Wednesday.

Villalobos was designated for assignment by the Marlins on Monday and passed through waivers unclaimed. The 26-year-old reliever has yet to make his MLB debut.

Boxberger (forearm) resumed throwing Tuesday in Arizona, Andy Martinez of Marquee Sports Network reports.

Boxberger was recently transferred to the 60-day injured list, but he's finally making progress in his recovery from the right forearm strain that originally sent him to the 15-day injured list in mid-May. The veteran reliever could be an option again for the Cubs' bullpen mix around the end of July.

Kansas City recalled Coleman from Triple-A Omaha on Wednesday.

Coleman has surrendered 10 earned runs on seven hits and seven walks in just five innings of relief this season at the major-league level, but the Royals are desperate for fresh arms. He'll presumably operate in a low-leverage bullpen role.

Milwaukee optioned Bukauskas to Triple-A Nashville on Wednesday.

Bukauskas made two appearances during his brief stay in the Brewers' bullpen. The 26-year-old right-hander owns a career 7.08 ERA in 20.1 total major-league frames.

Milwaukee optioned Andrews to Triple-A Nashville on Wednesday.

Andrews was lit up for six runs -- five earned -- over 1.2 innings (two appearances) during his four-day stay in the Brewers' bullpen. Tyson Miller and J.C. Mejia are both getting the call from Nashville ahead of Wednesday's game against the Cubs.

Milwaukee selected Mejia's contract from Triple-A Nashville on Wednesday.

Mejia holds an ugly 8.89 ERA in 54.2 career innings of work at the MLB level, but he'll get another shot with the Brewers after delivering a 3.86 ERA and 32:13 K:BB over 30.1 frames this summer at Triple-A. The 26-year-old right-hander projects to fill a middle-relief role.

Milwaukee recalled Miller from Triple-A Nashville on Wednesday.

Miller will return to the Brewers' bullpen ahead of Wednesday night's game against the Cubs. The righty carries a 5.19 ERA through 8.2 major-league innings (six relief appearances) this year.
