  • Nolan McLean SP | NYM

    Mets' Nolan McLean: Tough-luck loss against Atlanta

    McLean (8-8) took the loss against Atlanta on Tuesday, allowing one run on one hit and two walks while striking out three across six innings.

    McLean yielded only two baserunners through his first four innings and kept Atlanta off the board before giving up a leadoff solo homer to Ozzie Albies in the fifth. McLean stayed in to pitch through the sixth inning to secure his 14th quality start of the season (tied for eighth-most in the majors), but he still took the loss as his Mets teammates failed to score. His three punchouts were also his second-lowest of the season (two against the Marlins on May 31), and the 25-year-old right-hander sits at a 3.42 ERA and 1.13 WHIP across 136.2 innings this season. McLean's next start is lined up for next week at home against the Padres.

  • Martin Perez SP | ATL

    Braves' Martin Perez: Throws six scoreless frames in win

    Perez (8-6) earned the win against the Mets on Tuesday, allowing four hits and three walks while striking out two across six scoreless innings.

    Perez allowed at least one baserunner in five of the six innings he pitched Tuesday, but the only time the Mets advanced a runner to third base was in the sixth, which ended with a 4-6-3 double play. Perez has now tossed 16 straight scoreless innings spanning three starts and sits at a 2.96 ERA and 1.15 WHIP over 106.1 innings this season. His next start is lined up for next week on the road against the Twins in what projects to be a two-start week for the veteran southpaw.

  • Tyler Glasnow SP | LAD

    Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow: Set for another rehab start Friday

    Glasnow (back) will make another minor-league rehab start with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Friday, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

    Glasnow is set to be stretched out to roughly four innings and/or 60 total pitches in the outing as the Dodgers continue to slowly ease him back into a full workload. The right-hander is then expected to throw one more rehab start following Friday's outing before Los Angeles would consider activating him from the 60-day injured list. Glasnow has been sidelined since May 8 while recovering from lower back spasms, and he appears to be on track to return to the major-league roster before the end of August.

  • Zac Gallen SP | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Zac Gallen: Successful bullpen session Tuesday

    Gallen (elbow) completed a 33-pitch bullpen session in Arizona on Tuesday, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.

    Gallen was able to complete the throwing session without any issues, successfully taking the next step in his recovery from right elbow inflammation. The right-hander isn't eligible to be activated from the 60-day injured list until Sept. 7, so Gallen could throw another bullpen session or two before moving on to facing live hitters and eventually heading out on a rehab assignment.

  • Corbin Burnes SP | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Corbin Burnes: Completes bullpen session

    Burnes (elbow/shoulder) threw a 30-pitch bullpen session in Arizona on Tuesday, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.

    Burnes has been sidelined for the entirety of the 2026 campaign while recovering from June 2025 Tommy John surgery and a teres major strain, the latter of which resulted in him being shut down from throwing in early June. The right-hander has been throwing bullpen sessions for approximately two weeks and looks to be on track for a return from the 60-day injured list in early September.

  • Blake Snell SP | LAD

    Dodgers' Blake Snell: Activated from IL ahead of start

    Snell (elbow) was activated from the 60-day injured list ahead of his start Tuesday night against the Royals.

    Snell will officially make his return to action with the Dodgers after missing nearly three months while recovering from a procedure to remove loose bodies from his left elbow. The southpaw has made just one start with Los Angeles this season, surrendering five runs (four earned) on six hits and two walks while striking out five batters over three innings May 9 versus Atlanta. Snell was able to build up to 73 total pitches in his final minor-league rehab start Aug. 4 with Triple-A Oklahoma City, so he will likely be able to handle a somewhat regular workload against Kansas City.

  • Brewers' Lyon Richardson: DFA'd by Brewers

    The Brewers designated Richardson for assignment Tuesday.

    Richardson appeared in one game after getting called up from Triple-A on Saturday, during which he gave up zero hits and a walk over 1.2 scoreless innings. He'll now lose his place on the active and 40-man rosters to make room for Bryse Wilson, who signed a major-league deal with the Crew on Tuesday.

  • Alan Rangel RP | PHI

    Phillies' Alan Rangel: Optioned to Lehigh Valley

    Philadelphia demoted Rangel to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Tuesday, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.

    Rangel was roughed up in his lone outing Monday since returning to the big-league club on August 9. The right-hander went 2.2 innings, allowing three runs on six hits and a walk while striking out three against St. Louis. The Phillies elevated Alex McFarlane to replace Rangel on the active roster.

  • Nick Lodolo SP | CIN

    Reds' Nick Lodolo: Activated from IL, starting Tuesday

    Cincinnati reinstated Lodolo (finger) from the 15-day injured list, and he will start Tuesday's matchup against the White Sox.

    Lodolo will return from the IL after being sidelined for just under a month of action. The southpaw needed just one rehab start with Triple-A Louisville, which spanned 4.1 innings, before rejoining the big-league club. On the season, the 28-year-old owns a 3-2 record, 4.60 ERA, 1.47 WHIP and 50:27 K:BB through 62.2 innings. The Reds optioned Zach McCambley to Louisville in a corresponding move.

  • Hunter Greene SP | CIN

    Reds' Hunter Greene: Shifts to 60-day IL

    The Reds transferred Greene (elbow) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Tuesday.

    Greene is out for the remainder of the 2026 season and will soon undergo surgery to repair a partially torn UCL in his right elbow, which will keep him on the shelf for most or all of the 2027 campaign. The 27-year-old opened the current season on the IL after requiring a procedure in the spring to remove bone chips from his elbow and ended up making just five starts for the Reds, logging a 6.83 ERA, 1.37 WHIP and 33:9 K:BB across 27.2 innings.
