The Rockies recalled Hollowell from Triple-A Albuquerque on Saturday, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

Hollowell has been solid out of the bullpen in Triple-A this season with a 1.54 ERA and 1.25 WHIP while striking out 14 batters through 11.2 innings. He has a bit of major-league experience from last season with Colorado -- he allowed six earned runs over seven frames and struck out eight. Hollowell will replace Dinelson Lamet on the Rockies' pitching staff after Lamet was DFA'd by the team Saturday.

The Rockies designated Lamet for assignment Saturday, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

After surrendering eight runs over the course of four innings Friday against Atlanta, Lamet's ERA soared to 11.57 on the season, and he has now lost his spot on the team. His impressive Triple-A stat line (0.84 ERA, 0.69 WHIP) will help his chances of getting claimed by another team. There's no word on who might replace Lamet in the Rockies' rotation, but reliever Gavin Hollowell was recalled from Triple-A Albuquerque in a corresponding move.

The Phillies recalled Marte from Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Saturday.

With Seranthony Dominguez (oblique) landing on the injured list Saturday, Marte will be called upon to provide the Phillies with additional bullpen depth. The 28-year-old righty holds a 7.71 ERA in the majors this season through 14 innings, but he's allowed just two earned runs in nine appearances since May 20.

The Phillies placed Dominguez on the 15-day injured list Saturday (retroactive to Friday) with a left oblique strain.

Dominguez holds a 6.00 ERA and 1.67 WHIP across six innings since the beginning of June and will now be held out until at least the start of July due to his injury. Yunior Marte was recalled from Triple-A Lehigh Valley in a corresponding move and will take Dominguez's place in Philadelphia's bullpen.

Ortiz was optioned to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Saturday, Scott Lauber of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Just four days after being promoted from Triple-A, Ortiz will head back to Lehigh Valley to make room for Cristopher Sanchez. Ortiz made one appearance during his brief stint with Philadelphia, surrendering two earned runs over three innings and picking up his first big-league save.

The Brewers optioned Miller to Triple-A Nashville on Saturday.

Miller was brought up from Triple-A on June 9 after injuries to Bennett Sousa (shoulder) and Jake Cousins (shoulder), and he will return to Nashville with the return of Wade Miley (lat) on Saturday. Miller made two appearances during his latest stint with the Brewers, throwing two scoreless innings while striking out two batters and walking one.

Englert (2-2) allowed one run on four hits across two innings of relief and earned the win Friday against the Twins. He had two strikeouts.

Englert followed opener Will Vest and was able to earn the win despite allowing a lot of traffic on the bases during his two innings of work. The righty has a middling 4.87 ERA and 1.52 WHIP for the season, limiting his fantasy appeal. He has at least been able to give the Tigers some length out of the bullpen, as 14 of his 23 appearances this year have covered at least two innings.

Garrett was optioned to Triple-A Norfolk after Friday's game.

Garrett's contract was selected Wednesday. He made two relief appearances during his brief time in the big leagues, giving up three runs on seven hits in 2.2 innings of work. Spenser Watkins was called up to take his place in the bullpen.

Headrick was recalled Saturday from Triple-A St. Paul.

Headrick is expected to pitch in Saturday's game against Detroit and will likely be used as a multi-inning option after Jose De Leon opens the game. Though he's logged a 4.23 ERA at Triple-A this season, Headrick boasts a strong 21.9 K-BB%.

Winder was optioned Saturday to Triple-A St. Paul.

Winder gave up a run over two innings in Friday's loss to Detroit. He'll likely return at some point this summer to work in a long-relief role. He was seen as a potential starter last year, but he hasn't started at game at Triple-A (11 appearances) this season.
