The Rangers recalled Boushley from Triple-A Round Rock on Friday.

Boushley has bounced between Triple-A and the majors this season, and he'll join the Rangers' bullpen ahead of the team's three-game set in Houston. In 15 MLB appearances, Boushley has logged a 5.04 ERA and a 29:5 K:BB across 30.1 innings. Dane Dunning was optioned to Round Rock in a corresponding move.

Gipson-Long (neck) completed a bullpen session Thursday, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

The outing marked Gipson-Long's first time throwing off a mound since being placed on the 15-day injured list July 2 with a neck strain. The 27-year-old will be eligible for activation after the All-Star break, but it's unclear if he'll be ready by then.

Borucki's (back) rehab assignment was transferred to Triple-A Indianapolis on Friday.

Borucki threw a perfect inning in a rehab outing at Low-A Bradenton, and he'll advance to Indianapolis. The 31-year-old reliever should need only one or two more minor-league appearances before being activated, though Pittsburgh will likely wait until after the All-Star break to add Borucki to the active roster.

The Brewers placed Ashby on the paternity list Friday.

The left-hander will step away from the team ahead of the final series before the All-Star break in order to be with his growing family. Ashby should be back with the Brewers by the start of the second half next week.

The Pirates selected Ramirez's contract from Triple-A Indianapolis on Friday.

Ramirez will get his first taste of MLB action this season, as he is getting called up after re-signing a minor-league contract with Pittsburgh on July 6. The 30-year-old has logged a 3.07 ERA and a 39:11 K:BB across 29.1 innings with Indianapolis this season. Jared Triolo was optioned to Triple-A, and Matt Gorski was designated for assignment in corresponding moves.

The Mets optioned Hagenman to Triple-A Syracuse on Friday.

Hagenman will surrender his spot on the 26-man roster to Kodai Senga (hamstring), who has been activated from the injured list. In four MLB appearances this season, Hagenman has posted a 5.11 ERA and a 13:1 K:BB across 12.1 innings.

The Mariners placed Vargas on the paternity list Friday.

The All-Star break begins Monday, so it's likely Vargas will have the full weekend off for personal reasons before returning to the team when the schedule resumes. Seattle recalled Tayler Saucedo from Triple-A Tacoma in a corresponding move.

The Mariners recalled Saucedo from Triple-A Tacoma on Friday.

The 32-year-old will take Carlos Vargas' spot on the active roster as Vargas heads to the paternity list. Saucedo has a 3.38 ERA in 10 appearances with Tacoma, but he's yielded four runs in 3.2 innings with the Mariners in 2025. He hasn't been on the active roster since late April.

The Dodgers designated Davis for assignment Friday.

The right-hander was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City last weekend and will now lose his place on Los Angeles' 40-man roster. Davis surrendered 13 earned runs over six innings across his five outings with the Dodgers this season.

Atlanta claimed Wentz off waivers Friday, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports.

Wentz was designated for assignment by the Twins on Wednesday, and he'll get a fresh start. He replaces Kevin Herget on the 40-man roster. Wentz has appeared in 25 MLB games this season, 19 with Pittsburgh and six with Minnesota. He's posted a 6.88 ERA and a 28:20 K:BB across 34 total innings.
