  • Clayton Beeter RP | WAS

    Yankees' Clayton Beeter: Up with big club

    The Yankees recalled Beeter from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Wednesday.

    Beeter has offered a mixed bag at Scranton/Wilkes-Barre after returning from a shoulder injury, posting a 1.02 ERA with 29 strikeouts over 17.2 innings but also issuing 14 walks. He has a chance to work his way into high-leverage spots for the Yankees, but Beeter is likely to be used earlier in games initially.

  • Kevin Herget RP | NYM

    Braves' Kevin Herget: Demoted to Triple-A

    Atlanta optioned Herget to Triple-A Gwinnett on Wednesday.

    Herget will give up his spot in the Atlanta bullpen to right-hander Daysbel Hernandez (forearm), who was reinstated from the injured list. After being recalled from Gwinnett on Saturday, Herget tossed a scoreless inning in his lone appearance for Atlanta in Tuesday's game against the Angels before being moved off the 26-man active roster.

  • Braves' Daysbel Hernandez: Back from injured list

    Atlanta activated Hernandez (forearm) from the 15-day injured list Wednesday.

    Hernandez missed the last month of action with right forearm inflammation but is ready to roll after making one scoreless rehab appearance. The righty was handling a high-leverage role before getting hurt but could be eased back into the late innings.

  • Austin Cox RP | ATL

    Braves' Austin Cox: Brought up from Triple-A

    Atlanta recalled Cox from Triple-A Gwinnett on Wednesday.

    Cox was optioned to Gwinnett less than a week ago, but he'll be eligible to rejoin the big club because Atlanta placed right-hander Spencer Schwellenbach (elbow) on the 15-day injured list in a corresponding move. The 28-year-old will provide manager Brian Snitker with a fourth left-handed option in the bullpen behind Dylan Lee, Aaron Bummer and Dylan Dodd.

  • Mason Fluharty RP | TOR

    Blue Jays' Mason Fluharty: Dispatched to Triple-A

    The Blue Jays optioned Fluharty to Triple-A Buffalo on Wednesday.

    He'll lose his spot on the 26-man active roster and in the Toronto bullpen with right-hander Yimi Garcia (shoulder) returning from the 15-day injured list. After getting his first big-league call-up March 30, Fluharty notched three wins and four holds while registering a 5.56 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 38:16 K:BB over 34 innings.

  • Twins' Kody Funderburk: Back in big-league bullpen

    The Twins recalled Funderburk from Triple-A St. Paul on Wednesday, Phil Miller of The Minnesota Star Tribune reports.

    Funderburk has made nine relief appearances for the Twins this season, allowing 10 earned runs with a 9:5 K:BB over 12 innings. He will provide manager Rocco Baldelli with a third lefty in the bullpen.

  • Yimi Garcia RP | TOR

    Blue Jays' Yimi Garcia: Returns from IL

    The Blue Jays reinstated Garcia (shoulder) from the 15-day injured list Wednesday.

    Toronto sent lefty Mason Fluharty to Triple-A Buffalo to clear room in the bullpen and on the 26-man active roster for Garcia's return from the IL. Before landing on the IL on May 24 due to a right shoulder impingement, Garcia compiled three saves and six holds and pitched to a 3.15 ERA and 1.05 WHIP in 20 innings.

  • Drey Jameson RP | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Drey Jameson: Still bothered by elbow injury

    Jameson underwent an MRI on his right elbow Tuesday after experiencing renewed tightness coming out of his rehab appearance in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League last Friday, Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic reports.

    Jameson landed on Triple-A Reno's 7-day injured list May 20 due to inflammation in his right elbow, which he previously had surgically repaired in September 2023. After a month of rest and rehab, Jameson was cleared to resumed pitching in games in the ACL last week, but he made just two appearances before suffering a setback. The Diamondbacks haven't revealed the findings of Jameson's recent MRI, but he'll presumably be out of action through at least the All-Star break.

  • Juan Morillo RP | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Juan Morillo: Expected to be optioned

    The Diamondbacks are expected to option Morillo to Triple-A Reno on Wednesday, Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic reports.

    Morillo has made 28 relief appearances for the Diamondbacks this season, posting a 4.01 ERA and 25:13 K:BB across 24.2 frames. He'll be replaced on the roster by Jake Woodford, who will offer the Arizona bullpen more length.

  • Joe Jacques RP | NYM

    Mariners' Joe Jacques: Contract selected

    The Mariners selected Jacques' contract from Triple-A Tacoma on Wednesday.

    Jacques has posted a 6.19 ERA and 35:12 K:BB over 32 innings at the Triple-A level this season. The 30-year-old will give manager Dan Wilson another relief option from the left side.
