Helsley recorded his sixth save of the season in Tuesday's 8-5 win over the Reds, giving up one hit and two walks in a scoreless ninth inning. He struck out one.

The right-hander threw only 14 of 27 pitches for strikes and loaded the bases with two outs before getting Jonathan India to ground out and end the game. Helsley is suddenly fighting to find the strike zone, issuing four free passes in his last four appearances, but on the season he still has a 3.00 ERA and 28:10 K:BB through 21 innings.

Thielbar (oblique) threw a bullpen session Tuesday, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.

The 36-year-old southpaw reportedly reached the mid-80s and was satisfied with his intensity. Thielbar will throw another bullpen session within the next few days, at which point the Twins will determine his next steps. Thielbar has been on the injured list since May 5 with a right oblique strain.

Scott's option Tuesday to Triple-A Oklahoma City has been rescinded, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.

Scott was going to be the corresponding 26-man roster casualty for Bobby Miller's promotion, but Tyler Cyr (shoulder) will instead head to the 15-day IL as the corresponding move. Scott should be available out of the Dodgers' bullpen Tuesday night against Atlanta.

Cyr was placed on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with a right shoulder impingement, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Cyr had logged two scoreless relief appearances with the Dodgers since being selected to the MLB roster on Friday. It's unclear at this point how long he might be sidelined.

The Dodgers optioned Scott to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Tuesday, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.

Bobby Miller will fill the vacant 26-man roster spot and make his MLB debut in a start Tuesday night against Atlanta. Scott did not get an appearance during his one-day stay with Los Angeles.

Cubs manager David Ross said Tuesday that imaging scans showed no structural damage in Boxberger's right arm, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune reports.

"I don't think it's going to be a super long thing or have to deal with surgery as of now," said Ross. Boxberger will be shut down from throwing for a bit, but he should be an option again for the Cubs' bullpen within the next month or so. He was placed on the injured list last week with what was originally called a right forearm strain.

Oakland activated May (personal) from the 15-day injured list Tuesday.

May is ready to give it a go again after missing several weeks because of anxiety-related issues. If those are behind him, the 33-year-old reliever would have a clear path toward claiming a high-leverage role in the Oakland bullpen. But, he is probably more of a wait-and-see type in fantasy, all things considered.

The Blue Jays transferred White (shoulder) to the 60-day injured list Tuesday.

White has been on the injured list since before Opening Day and was pulled off his rehab assignment Thursday due to shoulder fatigue. He resumed throwing Sunday, but White is likely still a couple weeks away from his season debut. His transfer clears a spot for Ernie Clement to join Toronto's 40-man and big-league rosters.

The Blue Jays optioned Hatch to Triple-A Buffalo on Tuesday.

Hatch was solid through his two appearances since being recalled last week. He threw 1.1 scoreless frames with three strikeouts and will now return to the minors, where he holds a less-impressive 4.91 ERA and 1.41 WHIP through 22 innings.

Cimber (back) was reinstated from the 15-day injured list Tuesday.

A right rhomboid strain has held Cimber out since the end of April, but after throwing an extra bullpen session Monday, the 32-year-old righty will return to Toronto's bullpen. Cimber has allowed five earned runs through 10 innings this season, with three of them coming in his last two appearances.
