Webb cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Gwinnett on Saturday.

Webb was designated for assignment Thursday but will remain in the organization after going unclaimed on waivers. He made six relief appearances at Triple-A Reno to begin the year and posted a 10.13 ERA and 2.16 WHIP in 5.1 innings.

Gage was recalled by the Blue Jays on Saturday.

Gage was optioned Friday but will return just one day later with Trevor Richards (neck) hitting the injured list. Gage allowed one run on two hits across five innings of relief work during his previous stint in the majors, his only big-league experience to date.

Richards was placed on the 15-day injured list with a neck strain Saturday.

Richards hasn't been pitching well lately, allowing 12 runs in eight innings across his last eight appearances, though it's unclear exactly how much of that can be attributed to the injury. Matt Gage was recalled to take his place in the bullpen.

Machado was recalled from Triple-A Rochester on Saturday, Jessica Camerato of MLB.com reports.

The 29-year-old was sent down Friday but will rejoin the Nationals' bullpen a day later after Evan Lee (shoulder) was placed on the 15-day injured list. Machado has made 17 relief appearances in the big leagues this year and has posted a 5.48 ERA and 1.52 WHIP in 23 innings.

Neris is available out of the Astros' bullpen for Saturday's game against the White Sox after serving his three-game suspension, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

Neris was unavailable for the last three games after MLB determined that he intentionally threw at the Mariners' Eugenio Suarez on June 7. Over five appearances since the start of June, the right-hander picked up two holds while giving up six runs in four innings.

Gillaspie was optioned to Triple-A Norfolk on Saturday.

Gillaspie pitched well during most of his time with the major-league club, but he gave up four runs on five hits and no walks in one-third of an inning during his most recent appearance. The right-hander will head back to the minors after Joey Krehbiel (shoulder) was reinstated from the 15-day injured list Saturday.

Krehbiel (shoulder) was reinstated from the 15-day injured list Saturday.

Krehbiel dealt with right shoulder inflammation over the last few weeks but will rejoin the Orioles' bullpen after missing the minimum of 15 days. Over his last 10 relief appearances, he picked up three holds while posting a 2.31 ERA and 1.11 WHIP in 11.2 innings.

Kay (undisclosed) began a rehab assignment with the Blue Jays' rookie-level Florida Coast League affiliate Saturday, Mitch Bannon of SI.com reports.

Kay has been sidelined with an undisclosed injury since late April but has been cleared for a rehab assignment nearly two months later. Once he's back to full health, he should be assigned to Triple-A Buffalo.

Pardinho (elbow) will join the Blue Jays' rookie-level Florida Coast League affiliate for a rehab assignment Saturday, Mitch Bannon of SI.com reports.

Pardinho underwent Tommy John surgery in February of 2020, but he's built up over the last few months and has been cleared to return to game action. The right-hander sustained a setback while playing rookie ball last year, so the Blue Jays will likely exercise plenty of caution before ultimately sending him to another minor-league affiliate.

Rosenberg will be called up from Triple-A Salt Lake to start Sunday's game against the Mariners, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.

Rosenberg's first two major-league appearances came as a reliever, and he allowed five runs while striking out seven in six innings. He was sent to the minors in early June but will rejoin the big-league club to make his first career start in the majors Sunday. Over seven starts with Salt Lake this year, he's posted a 2.34 ERA and 0.96 WHIP in 34.2 innings.
