Brewers' Trevor Gott: Clear of quad issue
Gott has recovered from the quadriceps injury that bothered him earlier this week, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Gott was unavailable due to the injury Tuesday and Wednesday, but he's apparently good to go coming off Milwaukee's scheduled day off Thursday. Gott has four holds and a 1.64 ERA, 0.64 WHIP and 15:1 K:BB across 11 innings this season.

Astros' Seth Martinez: Heads back to minors
Martinez was returned to Triple-A Sugar Land on Friday, Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Martinez served as the 27th man in Thursday's game against the Twins, and he struck out three in 1.2 scoreless innings. He's posted a 4.15 ERA in 8.2 innings over eight appearances for Sugar Land this season.

Padres' Dinelson Lamet: Demoted to Triple-A
Lamet was optioned to Triple-A El Paso on Friday, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.
Lamet allowed runs in only one of his first five appearances this season, but he'll head to the minors after giving up eight earned runs over three frames in his past five outings. Robinson Cano was added to the major-league roster in a corresponding move.

Orioles' Jorge Lopez: Reinstated from bereavement list
Lopez (personal) was reinstated from the bereavement list Friday.
Lopez had been away from the team since Tuesday, but he'll be available for Friday's series opener against the Tigers after missing the minimum of three days. The right-hander should immediately be the favorite for save chances now that he's back with the club.

Yankees' Jonathan Loaisiga: Picks up win Thursday
Loaisiga (1-1) earned the win against the White Sox on Thursday despite allowing two runs on one hit and one walk over one inning.
Loaisiga has largely struggled this season, and Thursday was no different as he gave up a walk and a home run to the first two batters he faced. That allowed the White Sox to tie the score, but the Yankees exploded for seven runs in the top of the eighth to hand Loaisiga the victory. After posting a 2.17 ERA in 57 appearances in 2021, the right-hander has compiled a 5.93 ERA and 1.32 WHIP over his first 13.2 frames this season. He does have four holds, however.

Yency Almonte RP | LAD
Dodgers' Yency Almonte: Impressive in Dodgers debut
Almonte pitched two perfect innings and notched four strikeouts against the Phillies on Thursday.
Almonte spent his first four big-league seasons with Colorado before joining the Dodgers on a minor-league deal this spring. The right-hander was called up Thursday and looked great in his first game in a Los Angeles uniform, retiring all six batters he faced, including the final three by strikeout. The Dodgers have one of the league's top bullpens, so Almonte doesn't figure to see much high-leverage work while he remains in the majors.

Daniel Hudson RP | LAD
Dodgers' Daniel Hudson: Falters again Thursday
Hudson (1-3) took the loss against Philadelphia on Thursday, allowing two runs on two hits and one walk while striking out one over one inning.
The Dodgers stormed back from a 7-3 deficit by scoring four runs in the eighth inning, and they handed the ball to Hudson with hopes that he could keep the score tied in the top of the ninth. However, the veteran reliever was touched for a pair of runs that resulted in his second loss in as many days. There was some bad luck involved for the right-hander -- the first two batters who reached base didn't get the ball out of the infield -- but Hudson also hurt himself with a bases-loaded wild pitch. Despite the hiccup, he has been one of the Dodgers' best bullpen arms on the season, compiling a 3.38 ERA, 1.13 WHIP, 13:3 K:BB and five holds over 10.2 innings.

Carson Fulmer RP | PIT
Carson Fulmer: Released by Dodgers
Fulmer was released by the Dodgers on Friday, Kyle Glaser of Baseball America reports.
Fulmer was designated for assignment by the Dodgers in early May, and he'll now be free to seek out another organization. The 28-year-old was a first-round pick by the White Sox in 2015, but he's failed to carve out a meaningful role in the majors while making appearances in six consecutive seasons. The right-hander is unlikely to have a significant role if he lands another contract.

Brent Suter RP | ATL
Brewers' Brent Suter: Dad heads to paternity list
Suter was placed on the paternity list Friday.
Suter has pitched in three of the Brewers' last four games, and he allowed two hits and a walk while striking out four in 3.1 innings. The southpaw will be away from the team for 1-to-3 days following the birth of his child, while Jandel Gustave was recalled from Triple-A Nashville to provide additional bullpen depth in Suter's absence.
