Meyer (hip) was spotted playing catch Monday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

While Meyer is throwing again, the Marlins haven't indicated when he might be ready to return from the 15-day injured list as he continues to recover from a left hip impingement. A clearer timeline for Meyer's return could come into focus once he reaches the point in his rehab where he's facing hitters in live batting practice.

The Blue Jays placed Francis on the 15-day injured list Tuesday due to a right shoulder impingement.

Francis' standing in Toronto's rotation was shaky given his 6.05 ERA through 14 starts, but it'll end up being an injury rather than ineffectiveness that ends up costing him a rotation spot. It's unclear how long the right-hander is expected to be sidelined, but he'll be out for at least the next couple weeks.

Mazur has joined the Marlins in Miami and is expected to be recalled from Triple-A Jacksonville to make a start this week during the team's homestand, Craig Mish of the Miami Herald reports.

The Marlins do not have a starting pitcher listed for Wednesday's game against the Phillies, and Mazur would be on six days' rest that day, so he could end up slotting into the rotation for that contest. Mazur has collected a 3.62 ERA and 55:16 K:BB over 59.2 innings this season with Jacksonville. The 24-year-old has a chance to make multiple starts with the big club, although that could depend on when Max Meyer (hip) is ready to return from the injured list.

Fleury (undisclosed) gave up one hit and tossed a scoreless inning in his start Saturday for Double-A Corpus Christi after being activated from the 7-day injured list.

Fleury hadn't pitched for a month before making his return to the Corpus Christi rotation over the weekend. He tossed just 17 pitches while facing the minimum three batters, and the right-hander could continue to have his workload monitored carefully in his first few outings coming off the injury.

Double-A Columbus reinstated Hackenberg (undisclosed) from its 7-day injured list Thursday.

Hackenberg has yet to make an appearance since being activated, but he's ostensibly healthy again after missing just over a month of action with an unspecified injury. The 23-year-old righty owns a 7.03 ERA and 1.83 WHIP in 24.1 innings with Columbus on the season.

Fuentes (hand) debuted for Triple-A Gwinnett on Saturday, covering 4.2 innings and striking out six batters while allowing one earned run on three hits and no walks.

Double-A Columbus had placed Fuentes on its 7-day injured list May 27 due to a blister on his pitching hand, but rather than reporting to a lower-level affiliate for a rehab assignment or slotting back into the Double-A rotation, the right-hander was surprisingly moved up to Gwinnett for his first start coming off the injury once he was activated Friday. The 20-year-old turned in an impressive debut for Gwinnett and has continued to elevate his standing as a prospect in 2025 after a strong showing in the Carolina League a season ago.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said that Sheehan (elbow) will be activated from the 60-day injured list to start Wednesday's game against the Padres, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.

As expected, Sheehan has received clearance to make his 2025 debut for the Dodgers this week after completely his recovery from May 2024 Tommy John surgery. The right-hander was cleared to kick off his rehab assignment just over a year after the procedure and was sharp over his four outings in the minors, logging a 3.97 ERA, 0.97 WHIP and 21:1 K:BB in 11.1 innings. In his most recent start for Triple-A Oklahoma City last Thursday, Sheehan tossed 3.1 innings and 63 pitches, so he'll likely be operating with a workload restriction Wednesday. While Sheehan should be in line for multiple turns through the Dodgers' rotation, he'll be at risk of a move to the bullpen or a demotion to Triple-A once the likes of Tyler Glasnow (shoulder), Blake Snell (shoulder), Tony Gonsolin (elbow) and Roki Sasaki (shoulder) return from the IL.

Yesavage could make his Blue Jays debut later this season if he continues to face little challenge from minor-league hitters, Mitch Bannon of the Athletic reports. "If he continues to dominate performance-wise, in tandem with consistent routines and progress with his priority goals, then it's not out of the question," player development director Joe Sclafani said recently. "It's our group's job to think long term and put him in the best position to succeed, but Trey will ultimately be the driver of those decisions."

The 20th overall pick in the 2024 First-Year Player Draft won't be the first player from his class to reach the majors -- that honor belongs to Houston's Cam Smith -- but Yesavage has torn through the Jays system to begin the season, making his professional debut at Single-A Dunedin on April 8 and then making his Double-A debut just over two months later. The 21-year-old right-hander still has a lot to prove before he'll be a viable option for the 26-man roster, but his four-pitch arsenal may already be big-league ready if his control and command hold up at higher levels, and Yesavage's 43.4 percent strikeout rate through 54.2 innings on the season leads all qualified minor-league hurlers. One big obstacle to a 2025 big-league debut would be his workload -- the organization came into the season planning to cap him at about 120-to-130 innings. Even if he doesn't get called up for the stretch run, Yesavage appears to be on track to compete for a rotation spot in Toronto as soon as spring training 2026.

Feltner (back) struck out two over 1.2 scoreless innings in a rehab start with the rookie-level Arizona Complex League Rockies on Monday.

It was Feltner's first outing in seven weeks, as he has been shelved since late April with back spasms. The right-hander will be eligible for activation from the 60-day injured list June 28, but he might need more time than that to rebuild his stamina.

Ginn struck out five over three scoreless innings in a relief appearance Monday against the Astros.

The Athletics didn't reveal what role Ginn would take on when they activated him from the 15-day injured list prior to Monday's contest, but it appears he will work out of the bullpen for now. With Ginn operating in a relief role, Jacob Lopez should remain in the A's rotation for the time being.
