  • Gavin Stone SP | LAD

    Dodgers' Gavin Stone: Starting Monday

    Stone will be recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City to start Monday in Atlanta, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.

    It won't be just a spot start for the 24-year-old, as manager Dave Roberts said the right-hander will fill the rotation spot of Dustin May (forearm) for the "foreseeable future." Stone made his big-league debut May 3 versus the Phillies and surrendered four runs on eight hits with two walks and one strikeout over four frames, but he posted a 2.45 ERA with 14 strikeouts in two starts since returning to Triple-A.

  • Cardinals' Adam Wainwright: Starting Tuesday vs. Reds

    Wainwright will make his next start against the Reds on Tuesday, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

    Wainwright was originally penciled in to start Wednesday's contest against Cincinnati, but he'll be moved up to Tuesday. Matthew Liberatore could make the start Wednesday, but his availability for that outing will be determined by whether he's used in the bullpen against the Dodgers on Sunday or the Reds on Monday.

  • Hunter Gaddis RP | CLE

    Guardians' Hunter Gaddis: Set to start Monday

    Gaddis is expected to be recalled from Triple-A Columbus to start Monday against the White Sox, Zack Meisel of The Athletic reports.

    Gaddis has a 6.86 ERA across 19.2 innings for Cleveland this season and will rejoin the big-league rotation for the series opener versus Chicago. The 25-year-old isn't guaranteed to stick in the rotation beyond Monday's contest, especially with Triston McKenzie (shoulder) and Aaron Civale (oblique) on rehab assignments and nearing their returns from the injured list.

  • Tyler Glasnow SP | LAD

    Rays' Tyler Glasnow: Making another rehab start Sunday

    Glasnow (oblique) is making his fourth rehab start with Triple-A Durham on Sunday.

    The right-hander delivered four scoreless frames in his previous start with Durham last Tuesday, and he should continue to build up his workload Sunday. It could be Glasnow's final rehab outing -- assuming he avoids any setbacks -- which potentially puts him on track to make his season debut next weekend against the Dodgers.

  • Bobby Miller RP | LAD

    Dodgers' Bobby Miller: Big-league debut coming Tuesday

    The Dodgers will promote Miller from Triple-A Oklahoma City to start Tuesday against Atlanta, Russell Dorsey of Bally Sports reports.

    The right-hander is one of Los Angeles' top prospects and will make his MLB debut this week with Julio Urias (hamstring) and Dustin May (forearm) both landing on the injured list within the past few days. Miller has a 5.65 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 12:6 K:BB across 14.1 innings at Triple-A after missing the first few weeks of the season with shoulder soreness, though he pitched well in his last start with just one run allowed and six strikeouts across six frames.

  • Cole Irvin RP | LAD

    Orioles' Cole Irvin: Optioned to Triple-A

    Irvin was optioned to Triple-A Norfolk on Sunday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

    Irvin will return to Triple-A after being called up Tuesday to provide the Orioles with an additional bullpen arm. The left-hander recorded one out in Saturday's win, recording his first scoreless outing with Baltimore this season. Overall, Irvin owns a 10.38 ERA in the majors this year, and he'll look to hone his craft with Norfolk before potentially returning to Baltimore later in 2023.

  • Jhony Brito RP | SD

    Yankees' Jhony Brito: Sent down to minors

    Brito was optioned to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Saturday.

    Brito struggled in his start Saturday against the Reds, allowing four runs on four hits and four walks over four innings. That pushed his season ERA and WHIP to 5.58 and 1.49, respectively, which prompted the Yankees to send him down. Brito's active roster spot and slot in the rotation will go to Luis Severino, who is slated to make his campaign debut Sunday after a lengthy stay on the injured list due to a lat injury. Given his 4.0 BB/9, one of Brito's primary goals while in the minors will likely be to improve his control.

  • Alek Manoah RP | LAA

    Blue Jays' Alek Manoah: Five strikeouts in no-decision

    Manoah did not factor into the decision Saturday, allowing two runs on six hits and one walk over 5.2 innings during a 6-5 loss to the Orioles. He struck out five.

    Manoah allowed two or fewer runs while completing at least five innings for the fifth time this season, but he still holds a 5.15 ERA and 1.74 WHIP due to a couple of poor outings. The right-hander's 40:33 K:BB over his first 10 starts (50.2 innings) is also worrisome after he posted a 180:51 K:BB over 196.2 innings last year. Either way, Saturday's outing was a step in the right direction, and Manoah will look to continue on that path in his next start, which is tentatively scheduled for the finale of a four-game set in Tampa Bay.

  • Aaron Nola SP | PHI

    Phillies' Aaron Nola: Season-high 10 strikeouts

    Nola (4-3) earned the win Saturday, allowing two runs on four hits and one walk over seven innings during a 12-3 win over the Cubs. He struck out 10.

    Nola got early run support and recorded a season-high 10 strikeouts while cruising through seven innings en route to his fourth win. The lone blemish for the right-hander came via a two-run home run from Dansby Swanson, which continues to be a minor issue for Nola. He's allowed one home run in eight of his 10 starts and holds a 4.31 ERA across 62.2 innings. However, Nola's 1.07 WHIP and 53:13 K:BB to start the year remains elite and suggests the ERA will drop eventually.

  • Cubs' Jameson Taillon: Another poor outing

    Taillon (0-3) took the loss Saturday, allowing eight runs (six earned) on six hits and three walks over 2.1 innings against the Phillies. He struck out one.

    Taillon served up a season-high six earned runs and has given up multiple runs in four straight outings since returning from the injured list. During that stretch, he's surrendered more runs (19) than innings pitched (12.2) and has an 11:6 K:BB. If he continues on this trend, another stint on the injured list may be in the cards, but for now, he's projected to pitch again during the finale of a three-game set versus the Mets.
