The Reds have returned Spiers (shoulder) from his minor-league rehab assignment due to right bicep soreness, Charlie Goldsmith of Fox 19 Now Cincinnati reports.

Spiers landed on the injured list due to a right shoulder impingement April 20 and was transferred to the 60-day IL in late May. He appeared to be nearing activation, as the right-hander began a rehab assignment July 3 and worked up to 75 pitches over 3.1 frames in his most recent outing Saturday, but he's experienced a setback due to an issue with his right bicep. It's unclear how much more time Spiers will need to miss as a result.

Bradish (elbow) will report to High-A Aberdeen on Thursday to make his first rehab start, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

Bradish made it through a two-inning simulated game Saturday without issue, and he'll now take the next step in his recovery from last June's Tommy John surgery with an internal brace. Prior to sustaining his elbow injury, Bradish opened the 2024 campaign in impressive fashion with a 2.75 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 53:15 K:BB through 39.1 innings over eight starts. Expectations for the 28-year-old righty should be tempered upon his eventual return from the 60-day injured list, however, as he could need time to regain his pre-surgery velocity and command.

Povich (hip) is slated to make his next rehab start Thursday or Friday with Triple-A Norfolk, Jake Rill of MLB.com reports.

His rehab stint was initially paused in late June due to renewed soreness in his hip, but Povich resumed the assignment July 13. He's pitched effectively in his last two outings between High-A Aberdeen and Norfolk, covering 6.1 innings over those starts while striking out nine and allowing one earned run on three hits and one walk. He tossed 62 pitches Saturday for Norfolk, so the southpaw will likely look to push his pitch count into the 70-80 range next week, setting him up to potentially rejoin the big-league rotation afterward.

Eflin (back) struck out five and allowed five unearned runs on three hits and one walk over four innings in a rehab start Thursday in the rookie-level Florida Complex League.

The appearance in the FCL was the second of Eflin's rehab assignment, which he kicked off last Sunday with a four-inning, 58-pitch outing for Double-A Chesapeake. He tacked on an additional 10 pitches to his workload Thursday, then said Friday that he feels good physically and believes he's ready to return from the 15-day injured list, according to Jake Rill of MLB.com. If the Orioles concur with Eflin's assessment of his health, he could step back into the big-league rotation for Wednesday's game in Cleveland.

Medina (elbow) still lacks a firm return date from his August 2024 Tommy John surgery, MLB.com reports.

The right-hander began throwing from 105 feet on flat ground in early June, but there's been no update on his progress since. The best-case scenario for Medina would have him rejoin the big-league staff in September, but he'll need to begin a rehab assignment fairly soon if a 2025 return is going to be on the table.

Gray (forearm) allowed one run on three hits and two walks while striking out five over 3.2 innings for Triple-A Round Rock on Saturday.

Gray threw 61 pitches (37 strikes) in what he hopes was his final rehab start. He's made three starts -- two at Round Rock sandwiched around one in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League. The Rangers will evaluate the right-hander to determine if Saturday's pitch count and four up-and-downs are sufficient to activate Gray.

Bieber (elbow) is scheduled for his next rehab start Tuesday, MLB.com reports.

Bieber will take the mound for a yet-to-be-determined minor-league affiliate. He had a dominant outing in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League last Tuesday, throwing 32 pitches (20 strikes) in his first game action since a minor setback in early June. The 30-year-old righty could be ready for his season debut with the Guardians in early August.

McCullers allowed four runs on five hits and three walks while striking out one over 2.2 innings in a no-decision versus the Mariners on Saturday.

McCullers has failed to finish four innings in three of his last four appearances and in five of 11 starts overall this year. He was at 75 pitches (41 strikes) when he was pulled during the Mariners' third-inning rally Saturday. McCullers kept the ball in the yard for the first time in five starts, but he's still giving up too many baserunners -- he's issued 17 walks over his last 20 innings. For the season, he's at a 6.90 ERA, 1.74 WHIP and 50:29 K:BB through 44.1 innings. The right-hander is lined up for a home start versus the Athletics next week.

Allen (6-8) took the loss against the Athletics on Saturday, allowing three runs on eight hits and one walk while striking out four batters over 5.1 innings.

Allen was sharp through three innings, retiring nine of the 10 batters he faced. Things took a major turn for the worse for him in the fourth, however, as the A's led off the frame with three straight doubles and four consecutive hits overall to score three times. Allen got into trouble again in the fifth and the sixth, though no additional runs were charged to his ledger. The lefty saw a stretch of three straight quality starts come to an end, but he did manage to yield three or fewer runs for the seventh consecutive outing. Allen will carry a 4.06 ERA into his next start, which lines up to come at home versus Baltimore.

Evans allowed two runs on six hits and three walks while striking out five over four-plus innings in a no-decision versus the Astros on Saturday.

Evans wasn't efficient enough, needing 88 pitches (53 strikes) for this start. He was still better than Houston starter Lance McCullers, but Evans has now failed to complete five frames in consecutive outings. He's at a 3.81 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and 40:18 K:BB through 54.1 innings over 10 starts to begin his major-league career. Evans is tentatively expected to make his next start on the road versus the Angels, though more shaky performances could lead to him being demoted to Triple-A Tacoma in favor of another starter at some point.
