Martinez was recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas by the Athletics on Thursday.

Martinez was sent down back in mid-March but winds up making the team after all. Chad Smith was optioned in a corresponding move.

Reyes (shoulder) was placed on the 15-day injured list Thursday.

Reyes is expected to miss the first couple months of the 2023 regular season as he continues his recovery from shoulder surgery last May. He joined the Dodgers on a one-year, $1.1 million contract just before the start of spring training.

Nelson (elbow) was placed on the 15-day injured list Thursday, retroactive to March 27.

Nelson was able to make some Cactus League appearances this spring, but the Dodgers don't want to rush his return from Tommy John surgery. He could be ready to go around mid-April.

The Mets placed Ridings (shoulder) on the 15-day injured list with a right lat strain.

Ridings is still working his way back from a shoulder injury that limited him to just two minor-league rehab appearances in 2022, and though he was expected to pitch in a Grapefruit League game at some point, that never came to fruition before spring training. The Mets are now classifying his injury as a lat strain, but it's unclear whether he suffered any sort of setback with the shoulder issue he dealt with a season ago.

Hudson (knee) was placed on the 15-day injured list Thursday.

Hudson continues to methodically work back from surgery last June to repair a torn ACL in his left knee. He might be able to join the Dodgers' bullpen before the end of April.

The Guardians placed Hentges (shoulder) on the 15-day injured list Thursday.

Hentges is making progress but will still be a ways away from making his 2023 debut. When healthy, he should be used in a high-leverage role in the Guardians' bullpen.

The Red Sox placed Rodriguez (oblique) on the 15-day injured list Thursday.

Though Rodriguez won't go on the 60-day IL to begin the season, he's expected to miss more than the minimum 15 days while he recovers from the Grade 2 right oblique strain he suffered March 18. Rodriguez has shown improvement since suffering the injury but hasn't initiated a throwing program, and the Red Sox likely won't offer a target date for his return from the IL until he's at the point in his rehab where he's facing hitters.

Mills (elbow) was placed on the 15-day injured list Thursday, retroactive to March 27.

Mills succumbed to right elbow inflammation late in spring training and isn't available for the start of the season. It's unclear how long the 28-year-old will be sidelined, though he shouldn't be expected to be ready to be activated when first eligible April 11.

Brieske was placed on the 15-day injured list by the Tigers on Thursday with right upper arm discomfort.

Brieske felt discomfort after his final Grapefruit League outing. The team is still seeking a more specific diagnosis for the righty and should be able to provide a clearer timetable once that's available.

The White Sox placed Hendriks on the 15-day injured list Thursday as he continues cancer treatment.

Hendriks' recovery is going well, which is why he's being placed on the 15-day and not the 60-day IL. He could need to move to the 60-day IL eventually, but the White Sox are keeping their options open for now.
