McClanahan (triceps) struck out one batter and issued one walk in a scoreless inning during his first rehab start Tuesday in the rookie-level Florida Complex League.

McClanahan has had a long road to recovery from his Aug. 21, 2023 Tommy John surgery and more recently, a bout with nerve irritation in his triceps. His outing Tuesday marked his first appearance in affiliated ball in just under two years, though he had been able to make three starts in the Grapefruit League this spring before being shut down. Unsurprisingly, McClanahan was lifted after throwing just one inning and 11 pitches, though he was able to make use of his full arsenal in the appearance. The Rays will continue to have McClanahan ramp up slowly over the course of his rehab assignment, which will likely last for nearly the entirety of the 30-day window and should eventually move to Triple-A Durham. He appears to be tracking toward a return from the 60-day injured list in early August.

Springs (7-6) allowed a run on six hits and a walk while striking out two over six innings to earn the win over Atlanta on Tuesday.

Springs continued a strong stretch -- over his last five starts, he's given up just nine runs (seven earned). He's not overwhelming hitters with strikeouts, and he continues to be prone to the long ball -- he's allowed five homers in that five-start span, including a solo shot to Eli White in Tuesday's outing. For the season, Springs has a 3.92 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 81:38 K:BB with 17 homers allowed over 103.1 innings across 19 appearances (17 starts). He is tentatively lined up for a home start versus the surging Blue Jays over the weekend.

Bello (5-3) allowed two runs on five hits and a walk over nine innings Tuesday, striking out 10 and earning a win over Colorado.

Bello was outstanding Tuesday, carrying a shutout into the ninth inning before Hunter Goodman belted a two-run shot. It was the first nine-inning complete game of Bello's career, and he completed it with an efficient 76 strikes on 107 total pitches. He forced 15 whiffs, including six with his sweeper, and produced his first double-digit strikeout performance since July 2024. Bello has registered a 2.83 ERA over his last nine starts and will carry a 3.27 ERA and a 65:34 K:BB into his next outing, which is lined up for this weekend at home against the Rays.

Lugo did not factor in the decision during Tuesday's win over Pittsburgh. He allowed two runs on four hits and a walk while striking out five over six-plus frames.

Both runs against Lugo came via solo home runs; Oneil Cruz went deep in the fourth inning, and Nick Gonzales popped a home run to begin the seventh, knocking Lugo out of the contest. Lugo threw 47 of 82 pitches for strikes Tuesday and generated just four whiffs. He is 3-0 with a 1.54 ERA over his last seven outings and hasn't given up more than two runs in an outing since May 30. Lugo will enter the All-Star break with a 2.67 ERA and an 88:31 K:BB through 101 innings.

Gordon has been cleared of a possible concussion after being struck in the head by a comebacker in Monday's loss to the Guardians, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

Gordon remained in Monday's game after the incident but was evaluated for a concussion as a precaution, and he passed all tests. The left-hander will be ready to pitch again when needed, although he's currently not scheduled to make another start before the All-Star break.

Matthews (shoulder) threw a live batting practice session Tuesday, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.

It's the first time Matthews has faced hitters since he was diagnosed in early June with a moderate subscapularis strain in his right shoulder. If he bounces back well from Tuesday's session, Matthews could be cleared for a rehab assignment. Given that he hasn't pitched in more than a month, the 25-year-old is sure to require at least a couple rehab starts before the Twins consider putting him back into their rotation.

Orioles interim manager Tony Mansolino said Tuesday that Wells (elbow) will throw a live batting practice session soon, Andy Kostka of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.

Wells has been throwing off a mound since early May and is almost ready to face hitters for the first time since undergoing UCL revision and internal brace augmentation surgery on his right elbow June 17, 2024. He is aiming to contribute for the Orioles at some point in the second half.

Povich (hip) is scheduled to throw a bullpen session Wednesday, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

The left-hander was pulled off his rehab assignment in late May due to renewed soreness in his left hip, but after being re-evaluated and receiving a second opinion, he was cleared to resume throwing. Wednesday will be Povich's second bullpen session since the soreness resurfaced, and he could resume the rehab assignment soon if he avoids further issues.

The Royals transferred Ragans (shoulder) to the 60-day injured list Tuesday.

Ragans had been scheduled to resume a throwing program Monday, but it's going to take him a while to get built back up after he was shut down for nearly a month with a left rotator cuff strain. He is now not eligible to return until early August.

The Red Sox optioned Fitts to Triple-A Worcester on Tuesday, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.

With Hunter Dobbins (elbow) likely to return later this week and the All-Star break looming, Fitts will head to Worcester where he can remain on a regular starter's schedule. He could rejoin the rotation after the break, although it's not a guarantee since Tanner Houck (elbow) is nearing a return.
