Bednar (back) was reinstated from the 15-day injured list Thursday, Kevin Gorman of TribLive.com reports.

Bednar was on the injured list with his back injury since late July, but he recently made three rehab appearances at Triple-A Indianapolis and allowed a run on two hits and a walk while striking out four in three innings. The right-hander should reclaim closing duties from Wil Crowe over the final two weeks of the regular season.

Beede was outrighted to Triple-A Indianapolis on Thursday, Alex Stumpf of DKPittsburghSports.com reports.

After being designated for assignment by two different teams this season, Beede cleared waivers and is likely to end his season in Triple-A. Beede has covered 61.1 innings in 2022 with a 5.14 ERA and 1.63 WHIP. Once the minor league season wraps up, he will look to make another run at joining the big-league bullpen in 2023.

Peralta (back) will be placed on the injured list with thoracic spine tightness Thursday, retroactive to Sept. 19, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

Peralta struggled Sunday against the Brewers, giving up two runs on three hits while failing to record an out. The move is backdated to Monday, and the Yankees hope that the left-hander will be available for the team's final series of the regular season since his injury isn't considered particularly serious, Brendan Kuty of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.

Suarez picked up a hold against the Cardinals on Wednesday with a perfect inning of work.

Padres starter Blake Snell tossed seven scoreless frames before departing having thrown 117 pitches. Suarez was called upon to be the bridge to closer Josh Hader and needed just 12 pitches to retire St. Louis in order. It was the former's seventh outing in September, and he's yet to give up a run this month. Suarez has emerged as a key high-leverage arm for San Diego this season, posting a 2.63 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 49:18 K:BB over 41 innings while notching four wins, one save and 10 holds.

White (forearm) was reinstated from the 7-day injured list at Double-A Frisco on Thursday, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.

White landed on the injured list with forearm fatigue in late July, and he'll be eligible to pitch in Thursday's playoff game at Frisco. Although the right-hander was unavailable for the final few months of the minor-league regular season, he should be able to have a normal offseason program once the playoffs wrap up.

Herget was designated for assignment Thursday.

The move allows the Rays to add utilityman Miles Mastrobuoni to the 40-man roster. Herget gave up two earned runs with one strikeout in 2.2 innings over two appearances in September.

Waites was optioned to Triple-A Sacramento on Thursday.

Waites gave up one earned run on five hits and four walks while striking out three over 4.1 innings in five September appearances. This was the first big-league cup of coffee for the 24-year-old righty, who is now headed back to the minors.

Miller's contract was selected from Triple-A Sacramento on Thursday.

Miller joined the Giants on a minor-league deal in June and posted a 3.62 ERA and 1.25 WHIP in 32.1 innings over 27 appearances (one start) at Sacramento over the last few months. He posted a 9.24 ERA in 12.2 innings over 13 relief appearances between the Pirates and Cubs last year and should serve mainly as a low-leverage reliever for the Giants after Cole Waites was sent down Thursday.

Effross (shoulder) was reinstated from the 15-day injured list prior to Thursday's game against the Red Sox.

The Yankees targeted Effross in a deadline deal with the Cubs, in which they sent out quality starting pitching prospect Hayden Wesneski, so he is a clear part of their high-leverage plans. Clay Holmes is currently heading a ninth-inning committee, and Effross could get a save or two over the final two weeks of the season.

Misiewicz (1-1) picked up the win Wednesday over the Twins. He struck out three and allowed a hit in 1.1 scoreless innings.

Starter Daniel Lynch lasted four innings, and Collin Snider worked the fifth, but it was Misiewicz who was awarded the win in a game the Royals led from the first inning on. Since his promotion from Triple-A Omaha on Aug. 24, he's posted a 5.79 ERA, 1.39 WHIP and 15:2 K:BB across 9.1 innings. Misiewicz has been slightly better overall this season with a 5.09 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and 23:8 K:BB through 23 innings between the Royals and the Mariners, but those ratios are unlikely to earn him anything more than low-leverage assignments.
