Sugano (7-5) earned the win over the Mets in the second game of Thursday's doubleheader, allowing three runs on four hits and three walks over six innings. He struck out two.

It's an encouraging way to head into the All-Star break for Sugano -- he logged his first quality start since June 3 after struggling to an 8.87 ERA over his previous five starts (22.1 innings). Overall, the 35-year-old right-hander sports a 4.44 ERA with a 1.30 WHIP and 59:22 K:BB through his first 18 starts (99.1 innings) in the majors.

Mahle (shoulder) will resume throwing in one week, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Mahle has already been ruled out past the trade deadline, and his absence could extend into mid-August, depending how quickly he ramps up. He's been sidelined since mid-June, so he'll almost certainly need multiple rehab starts after progressing through bullpen and live batting practice sessions.

Gray (forearm) will make his next rehab start with Triple-A Round Rock on Saturday, Shawn McFarland of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Gray began his rehab assignment Wednesday and threw 32 pitches while completing two innings. It was previously estimated that he would make four rehab appearances, setting Gray up for a potential return in late July.

McDermott was removed from his start with Triple-A Norfolk on Thursday due to right elbow discomfort, Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun reports.

McDermott was in the midst of a strong start, allowing two runs (one earned) on five hits and one walk while striking out six across 5.1 innings. The seriousness of the injury is unclear, though an arm issue always raises some level of concern. McDermott has allowed at least four earned runs in five of his eight starts since being demoted to Norfolk in late May.

Houck (elbow) struck out six batters and allowed one earned run on three hits and two walks over 4.1 innings during his rehab start Wednesday with Triple-A Worcester.

Making the fifth start of his rehab assignment and his fourth at the Triple-A level, Houck tossed 76 pitches (47 strikes) and induced 12 swings and misses. With the All-Star break on tap and his 30-day rehab window coming to a close next week, Houck's minor-league assignment has come to an end. The right-hander accrued a 5.74 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 15:6 K:BB in 15.2 innings across his five starts in the minors, and the Red Sox will now have to decide if they want to open a spot for him in the rotation or have him work out of the bullpen. Boston could view Houck as an upgrade at the back end of the rotation over Walker Buehler, who has turned in just one quality start over his last nine outings heading into Thursday.

High-A Hudson Valley reinstated Lange (shoulder) from its 60-day injured list and assigned him to Single-A Tampa on Saturday.

Lange didn't pitch at all in 2024 while recovering from a shoulder injury and remained out of commission for the first two months of this season before starting up a rehab assignment in early June. After three rehab appearances in the rookie-level Florida Complex League, Lange was advanced to Tampa on June 24. He looks like he'll stick around in the Florida State League for the time being while he continues to knock off some rust, though Lange has been sharp thus far. Over his four appearances with Tampa, Lange has struck out three while allowing no runs on three hits and two walks in 4.2 innings.

Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Thursday that Yarbrough (oblique) resumed a throwing program Wednesday, Greg Joyce of the New York Post reports.

It's a good step for the lefty, but Yarbrough hasn't pitched in more than three weeks, so it's going to take some time for him to be built back up. He will likely require at least one rehab start before rejoining the Yankees' active roster, and by that time it's uncertain whether he will still have a rotation spot waiting for him.

Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Thursday that Schmidt will undergo Tommy John surgery on his injured right elbow Friday, Bryan Hoch of MLB.com reports.

Boone said this past weekend that Tommy John surgery was the likely route for Schmidt, and now the operation has been scheduled. The Yankees could have more information following the procedure regarding a potential timetable for Schmidt, but there's a good chance he won't pitch again in the big leagues until 2027.

The Athletics recalled Bido from Triple-A Las Vegas on Thursday.

Since being sent down to the minors in mid-June, Bido has given up six earned runs over eight innings while striking out nine batters and walking three with Las Vegas. He hasn't performed well in the majors either, sporting a 6.14 ERA through 48.1 frames, but he'll join the big club regardless as a replacement for Mitch Spence. The A's won't need a fifth starter until late July, so Bido will likely work out of the bullpen heading into the All-Star break.

Paddack (3-8) took the loss Thursday against the Cubs, allowing six runs on 11 hits and a walk over five innings. He struck out two.

Paddack's performance Thursday continued a tough stretch on the mound, as he's posted a 7.53 ERA in his last seven outings -- he's failed to log more than five strikeouts in a start during that span. The right-hander will head into the All-Star break with a 4.95 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 70:25 K:BB across 19 starts (100 innings).
