  • Andrew Suarez RP | BAL

    Giants' Andrew Suarez: Returns to roster

    Suarez was recalled by the Giants on Friday.

    Suarez has bounced on and off the roster throughout the season. He's made five appearances for the team, posting a 5.14 ERA, a 2.00 WHIP and a 4:5 K:BB. Wandy Peralta was optioned in a corresponding move.

  • Blake Taylor RP | TEX

    Astros' Blake Taylor: Returns from injured list

    Taylor (elbow) was activated off the 10-day injured list Friday, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

    The 25-year-old landed on the injured list with elbow discomfort Sept. 7 and spends little more than the 10-day minimum on the shelf. Taylor has a 2.12 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 15:11 K:BB with one save and four holds over 17 innings this season.

  • Giants' Wandy Peralta: Dropped from roster

    Peralta was optioned to the Giants' alternate training site Friday.

    Peralta had been on the big-league roster all season and performed well enough, posting a 3.91 ERA and a 1.30 WHIP in 23 innings of relief work. Whether or not he'll get another opportunity down the stretch remains to be seen. Andrew Suarez was recalled in a corresponding move.

  • Rico Garcia RP | BAL

    Giants' Rico Garcia: Optioned off roster

    Garcia was optioned to the Giants' alternate training site Friday.

    Garcia made a pair of appearances during his latest stint on the roster, throwing two scoreless innings. Shaun Anderson was recalled in a corresponding move.

  • Josh Sborz RP | TEX

    Dodgers' Josh Sborz: Optioned again

    Sborz was optioned by the Dodgers on Friday, Ken Gurnick of MLB.com reports.

    Sborz finds himself sent down for the second time in four days, as he was optioned Tuesday before being recalled Wednesday. Mitch White was recalled in a corresponding move this time around.

  • Mitch White RP | MIL

    Dodgers' Mitch White: Recalled by Dodgers

    White was recalled by the Dodgers on Friday, Ken Gurnick of MLB.com reports.

    White should have a good chance to pitch at some point Friday against the Rockies in what is expected to be a bullpen game. The 25-year-old made his big-league debut back in late August, throwing a single scoreless inning of relief. Josh Sborz was optioned in a corresponding move.

  • Dakota Hudson SP | LAA

    Cardinals' Dakota Hudson: Placed on injured list

    Hudson landed on the 10-day injured list with a strained right forearm Saturday.

    Hudson left Thursday's game with the injury, which was originally called right elbow soreness but has since been diagnosed as a forearm strain following an MRI. With just 10 days left in the season, all injured list placements at this point are season-ending. Hudson will wrap up the year having posted a 2.77 ERA and a 1.00 WHIP in eight starts. Nabil Crismatt was recalled in a corresponding move.

  • Daniel Castano RP | MIA

    Marlins' Daniel Castano: May not start

    Castano is listed as the Marlins' starter for the second game of Friday's doubleheader against the Nationals, but manager Don Mattingly indicated he could pitch in relief in the afternoon game, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.

    Castano should feature at some point in one of Friday's games, though exactly when remains to be seen. If Castano is used in Game 1, expect Robert Dugger to get the call to start Game 2.

  • Phillies' Garrett Cleavinger: Dropped from roster

    Cleavinger was optioned off the Phillies' roster Friday.

    Cleavinger made his big-league debut Thursday but did little more than contribute to the Phillies' ongoing bullpen struggles, allowing a run on two hits while recording just two outs. It's possible he gets another opportunity down the stretch if the Phillies need another lefty in the pen.

  • White Sox's Garrett Crochet: Contract selected by White Sox

    Crochet had his contract selected by the White Sox and was added to the active roster Friday, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

    The 21-year-old will join the big-league roster three months after being selected 11th overall during the June draft. Crochet is unlikely to fill a significant role with Chicago headed to the playoffs, but he may be able to make his professional.
