The Red Sox recalled Guerrero from Triple-A Worcester on Saturday.

Guerrero has appeared in three major-league games for the Red Sox this season and has tossed four scoreless innings while allowing one hit and striking out three batters without issuing a walk. He has a 4.91 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 16:10 K:BB across 18.1 innings in Triple-A this season. Guerrero will take the spot in the bullpen vacated by Sean Newcomb, who was designated for assignment by the Red Sox in a corresponding move.

The Blue Jays placed Garcia on the 15-day injured list Saturday due to right shoulder impingement.

Blue Jays manager John Schneider told reporters Saturday that the issue has developed slowly over the last few weeks, per Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca. Garcia will be shut down from throwing and will undergo further tests to determine a timeline for his return to the majors. It's a significant blow to Toronto's bullpen, with Garcia posting a 3.15 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 24:10 K:BB across 20 innings with three saves and six holds this season. Paxton Schultz was recalled from Triple-A Buffalo in a corresponding move.

The move corresponds with the Blue Jays placing Yimi Garcia (shoulder) on the 15-day injured list. Schultz has appeared in two major-league games for the Blue Jays this season, including an eight-strikeout performance in his MLB debut against the Mariners on April 20. He has a 3.48 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 22:7 K:BB across 20.2 innings in Triple-A this season.

The Dodgers optioned Sauer to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Saturday, Jorge Castillo of ESPN.com reports.

Sauer pitched three innings and gave up two runs (one earned) in Friday's 13-inning marathon and will now end up as the odd man out of a roster spot with Bobby Miller coming up from Triple-A. Sauer owns a 3.05 ERA and 0.92 WHIP across 20.2 innings in the big leagues this season, so there's a good chance we'll see him back in Dodger blue later this year.

The White Sox released Altavilla from Triple-A Charlotte on Saturday.

Altavilla signed a minor-league contract with the White Sox in late March after appearing in five regular-season games for the Royals in 2024. Altavilla appeared in 20 games for Charlotte and posted a 2.49 ERA, 1.32 WHIP, seven saves and an 18:10 K:BB across 21.2 innings. The 32-year-old right-hander could garner interest from teams looking to add depth to its bullpen.

The Guardians recalled Enright from Triple-A Columbus on Saturday, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.

Cleveland placed Hunter Gaddis (personal) on the bereavement list in a corresponding move, opening up a spot in the bullpen for Enright. The 28-year-old righty turned in a 2.00 ERA, 1.44 WHIP and 7:7 K:BB across nine innings at Triple-A this season.

The Guardians placed Gaddis on the bereavement list Saturday, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.

Gaddis will be required to miss at least three games while he steps away from the team to tend to a personal matter. The 27-year-old is off to a terrific start this season with a 0.86 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 29:8 K:BB across 21 innings. Nic Enright was recalled from Triple-A Columbus in a corresponding move to take Gaddis' spot in the bullpen.

Reynolds will start Saturday's game against Atlanta.

Reynolds will be filling in for Michael King, who was scratched from his scheduled start due to a shoulder injury. Saturday will mark Reynolds' first start in the majors and only the fourth start of his professional career, though he isn't expected to last more than an inning or two.

The Mets recalled Waddell from Triple-A Syracuse on Saturday.

The Mets used eight pitchers during their marathon game against the Dodgers on Friday, so they'll bring up Waddell to get a fresh arm in their bullpen. The 30-year-old lefty has throwing 4.1 scoreless innings in the majors this season and owns a 3.06 ERA in 32.1 frames at Triple-A. Genesis Cabrera was designated for assignment in a corresponding move.

The Cubs selected Kriske's contract from Triple-A Iowa on Saturday, Taylor McGregor of Marquee Sports Network reports.

After turning in a 3.57 ERA and 1.22 WHIP alongside a 27:8 K:BB in 17.2 innings to start the Triple-A season, Kriske will get his first look with the Cubs and return to the majors for the first time since 2023. Julian Merryweather was designated for assignment in a corresponding move.
