The Dodgers optioned Davis to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Tuesday.

Since April 28, Davis has been back and forth between Triple-A Oklahoma City and Los Angeles.

In a corresponding move, the Dodgers recalled Matt Sauer from Triple-A Oklahoma City.

The Dodgers recalled Sauer from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Tuesday.

Sauer gave up a run in 1.2 innings during his lone MLB appearance April 7. Since then, he's surrendered just two runs in 11.2 frames while striking out 12 batters and walking one in Triple-A. Sauer may be a candidate to replace Tyler Glasnow (shoulder) in the starting rotation, though the Dodgers haven't yet specified what the former's role will be while he's with the big club. Noah Davis was optioned to Triple-A in a corresponding move.

Moreta (elbow) will begin a rehab assignment with Single-A Bradenton on Tuesday.

When he appears in a game, it will be his first since he underwent Tommy John surgery in March of 2024. Moreta is not on the 40-man roster but could be an option for the Pirates' bullpen at some point this season.

The Mets plan to call up Waddell from Triple-A Syracuse to serve as a starter or bulk reliever in Wednesday's game versus the Diamondbacks at Citi Field, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

The Mets will likely make a determination after Tuesday's game whether to deploy Waddell as a starter or behind an opener in his team debut. Waddell has posted a 1.54 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 21:7 K:BB through five starts and 23.1 innings this season with Triple-A Syracuse. He'll be making his first major-league appearance since 2021 on Wednesday.

Santos (knee) was transferred to the 60-day injured list by Seattle on Tuesday.

Santos is dealing with right knee inflammation. The Mariners needed his 40-man roster spot in order to select Samad Taylor's contract from Triple-A Tacoma.

Minter (lat) is considering season-ending surgery, Manny Gomez of NJ.com reports.

Minter was removed from the game Saturday against the Nationals with a strained lat and is facing a potentially lengthy rehab. The injury has been deemed "significant," according to manager Carlos Mendoza. Minter has a 1.64 ERA and 14:5 K:BB across 13 appearances out of the Mets' bullpen.

The Pirates placed Santana (personal) on the bereavement list Tuesday, Kevin Gorman of TribLive.com reports.

Santana will step away from the team for a few days in order to tend to a personal matter. David Bednar is back in the closer mix after a brief stint at Triple-A Indianapolis, and he'll be the favorite for saves while Santana is away from the club.

The Pirates recalled Stratton from Triple-A Indianapolis on Tuesday, Noah Hiles of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

Stratton -- who has allowed seven runs with a 9:4 K:BB in 11.2 innings with Indianapolis this season -- is taking the roster spot vacated by Dennis Santana, who was placed on the bereavement list. He will likely be up only for a few days while Santana is away.

The Guardians optioned Bolton to Triple-A Columbus on Tuesday, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.

Bolton was in the majors for just one day and yielded three runs over two innings in his lone appearance. He's being sent out in favor of fresh bullpen help.

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

The left-hander was optioned to Columbus on Monday, but he's eligible to be recalled a day later since Paul Sewald (shoulder) was placed on the injured list. Cantillo has been an effective bullpen piece for Cleveland early this year and has a 2.35 ERA, 1.37 WHIP and 20:8 K:BB across 15.1 innings.
