The Tigers reinstated Lange (lat) from the 60-day injured list Monday.

Lange will return to the Detroit bullpen for the first time since May 2024, after facing a long road back from the right lat surgery he underwent last July. The right-handed reliever has experienced a couple setbacks this season and had been pulled off a rehab assignment shortly before the All-Star break, but he returned to action for Triple-A Toledo on July 20 and allowed just one earned run in 6.2 innings over his final seven appearances to earn himself another opportunity with the big club. The Tigers opened up a spot in the bullpen and on the 26-man active roster for Lange by optioning left-hander Bailey Horn to Triple-A.

The Astros selected Scott's contract from Triple-A Sugar Land on Monday.

Scott holds a 6.66 ERA in 25.2 innings at the major-league level between stops with the Astros and Diamondbacks this season, but he'll get another chance with Houston after allowing six runs with an 11:7 K:BB over 11 frames at Sugar Land. The righty will likely be used in low-leverage spots.

The Astros designated Weems for assignment Monday.

Weems will lose his spot on the 40-man roster after he coughed up five runs while retiring only one batter in his relief appearance during Sunday's 12-0 loss to the Orioles. Houston selected the contract of right-hander Tayler Scott from Triple-A Sugar Land to replace Weems in the bullpen.

The White Sox Sox" data-type="SPORTS_OBJECT_TEAM" data-league-abbreviation="MLB" data-team-abbreviation="CHW">White Sox recalled White from Triple-A Charlotte on Monday.

White has made a couple relief appearances this season for the White Sox but has spent most of 2025 in the Charlotte rotation, holding a 4.93 ERA and 56:38 K:BB over 69.1 innings. He will give the bullpen a fresh arm ahead of Monday's series opener in Atlanta.

The Phillies recalled Hoffman from Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Monday.

Hoffman was acquired from the Rangers in June and has collected a 5.00 ERA and 73:32 K:BB over 54 innings at the Triple-A level this season. The right-handed reliever will be making his major-league debut when/if he gets into a game.

The Phillies optioned Lazar to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Monday.

Lazar pitched both of the previous two days and was knocked around for three runs over 1.1 innings in an appearance during Sunday's 11-9 win over the Nationals. He'll give up his spot on the 26-man active roster and in the bullpen to Nolan Hoffman, who was recalled from Triple-A.

Antone (elbow) has tossed 2.2 scoreless innings across two rehab appearances with High-A Dayton.

Antone is recovering from a third Tommy John surgery and has made a total of only nine appearances at the major-league level since 2022. The odds are against him making it back to be a successful reliever for the Reds, but it's possible he'll receive consideration for a promotion during the stretch run if he's pitching well.

Hall said Monday that an MRI on his right oblique showed a "Grade 1ish, Grade 2ish" strain, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Hall suffered the injury during an appearance this past Friday in Cincinnati and subsequently landed on the 15-day injured list. He hopes to resume throwing within two weeks and return within three weeks, but that seems to be a best-case scenario. Hall has posted a 3.35 ERA and 27:17 K:BB over 37.2 innings covering 19 appearances (three starts) in 2025.

The Cubs recalled Hollowell from Triple-A Iowa on Monday, Andy Martinez of Marquee Sports Network reports.

Hollowell will serve as the Cubs' 27th man during Monday's doubleheader against the Brewers. The right-handed reliever has pitched well during his opportunities in the majors this season, yielding just one run with an 8:3 K:BB across 7.1 innings.

The Cubs recalled Little from Triple-A Iowa on Monday, Andy Martinez of Marquee Sports Network reports.

Little will rejoin the Cubs for the first time since April, after he walked four of the six batters he faced in his lone relief appearance for the big club before being optioned to Triple-A. Since joining Iowa, Little has been one of the affiliate's more productive relievers, logging a 2.66 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 53:24 K:BB in 44 innings over 31 appearances. He'll be ticketed for low-leverage work out of the Chicago bullpen.
