McGreevy is "highly likely" to be recalled from Triple-A Memphis to make another spot start next week, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

The Cardinals are looking to give their regular rotation members extra rest during a stretch with limited off days. McGreevy will start the second game of Thursday's doubleheader against the White Sox, but because he is serving as the 27th man, he will be eligible to be recalled to make another start as soon as June 24 versus the Cubs. The rookie right-hander has made one start and one relief appearance for St. Louis this season, allowing four runs with a 10:1 K:BB over 11.2 innings.

The White Sox placed Houser on the paternity list Thursday.

By rule, Houser will miss the next 1-to-3 games. According to Jack Ankony of SI.com, Houser is still expected to pitch this weekend in Toronto when his next turn through the rotation comes up, though it's not yet clear which day he'll start.

The Yankees selected Sandridge's contract from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Thursday.

A 26-year-old lefty reliever, Sandridge will be making his MLB debut when he gets into a game. After beginning the season on Scranton/Wilkes-Barre's 60-day injured list, Sandridge has been effective since he was cleared to return to action for the affiliate in late May. Over his six appearances prior to his call-up, Sandridge allowed one earned run on four hits and four walks while striking out 13 over seven innings.

Burns struck out seven over seven innings while allowing one run on three hits and zero walks Wednesday for Triple-A Louisville.

Burns, arguably the top pitching prospect in baseball, has allowed more than one earned run in just two of his 13 starts this year. Wednesday's outing was his second start at Triple-A and one of his best starts of the season. Wade Miley is currently operating as the Reds' fifth starter while Hunter Greene (groin) is on the 15-day injured list. It's unclear when the Reds might promote Burns, but he's a must-stash in fantasy leagues where possible.

Mazur (0-1) took the loss Wednesday, giving up four runs on five hits and four walks over 5.2 innings as the Marlins were downed 4-2 by the Phillies. He struck out five.

Making his Miami debut and his first big-league start of 2025, Mazur held the visitors off the board for three innings before running into trouble in the fourth, a frame capped by Bryson Stott's three-run homer. Mazur did give the Marlins some length however, tossing 97 pitches (59 strikes), and he may have showed enough to remain in the big-league rotation beyond Wednesday. If the 24-year-old righty does stick around, he'll likely take the bump next week in a road series against the Giants.

Suarez (6-1) picked up the win Wednesday, allowing one run on four hits and two walks over seven innings in a 4-2 victory over the Marlins. He struck out eight.

A solo shot by Connor Norby in the fifth inning accounted for the only damage off Suarez, who delivered his eighth straight quality start on 95 pitches (63 strikes), including 32 called or swinging strikes. During his quality-start streak, the southpaw has posted a stellar 1.17 ERA, 0.95 WHIP and 46:12 K:BB through 53.2 innings. Suarez will look to stay locked in when he makes his next trip to the mound, which lines up to come on the road early next week in Houston.

Kolek allowed three runs on six hits and one walk while striking out three batters over 6.1 innings in a no-decision against the Dodgers on Wednesday.

Kolek made it through four scoreless frames before the Dodgers tagged him for three runs in the fifth. The right-hander hung around for a scoreless sixth and even remained in the game for the start of the seventh, though he exited after allowing two of the first three batters he faced to reach base in that frame. Kolek was in line for the loss at the time of his departure, but San Diego got him off the hook with a pair of runs in the ninth inning. The quality start was the third of the campaign for Kolek and his first since May 22. He's at a tolerable 3.59 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 37:19 K:BB through nine starts spanning 52.2 frames on the campaign.

Wrobleski (2-2) earned the win over San Diego on Wednesday, allowing two runs (one earned) on four hits and no walks while striking out three batters over five innings.

Emmet Sheehan got the start and threw 65 pitches over four frames for Los Angeles, while Wrobleski handled the final five innings. The southpaw cruised through the first four of those frames, holding San Diego scoreless on just one hit. Things got dicey for Wrobleski in the ninth, however, as he gave up three hits and was hurt by a fielding error behind him to allow the Padres to tie the score, but Will Smith's walk-off homer in the bottom of the frame ensured Wrobleski still emerged with the victory. The 24-year-old hurler gave up eight runs over five frames in his season debut April 8, but he's been much better since, posting a 2.79 ERA and 0.93 WHIP across his subsequent four appearances spanning 19.1 innings. It's unclear if Wrobleski will continue to piggyback with Sheehan in the short-term or settle into more of a regular long-relief role.

Sheehan tossed four innings in a no-decision against San Diego on Wednesday, allowing one run on three hits and no walks while striking out six batters.

Sheehan's start was his first MLB appearance since he underwent Tommy John surgery in May of last year. The right-hander had only modestly built up in the minors prior to being activated, topping out at 3.1 frames in his most recent rehab outing and tossing 11.1 innings total over four appearances. Despite that, Sheehan looked great Wednesday -- he induced 10 whiffs on 65 pitches, demonstrated strong control with 43 of his offerings going for strikes, and gave up just a single run. The righty will almost certainly need multiple more starts before he's ready to handle a full workload, but this was about as good an outing as could have been asked for given Sheehan's extended layoff and the quality of his opponent. He's projected to face the Rockies on the road in his next start.

Rogers didn't factor into the decision Wednesday against Tampa Bay, giving up three runs on five hits and three walks in 2.1 innings. He struck out four.

Summoned from Triple-Norfolk to replace the injured Cade Povich (hip) in the Orioles' rotation, Rogers' second start of the season wasn't nearly as impressive as his first. After firing 6.1 shutout innings in his season debut back on May 24 in Boston, the 27-year-old southpaw exhibited poor control while issuing three walks but did manage to whiff 10 during his abbreviated outing. Rogers' next turn in the rotation tentatively projects for next week versus the Rangers, who have scuffled to the tune of a .604 OPS against lefties since May 1.
