Feltner will be called up from Triple-A Albuquerque to start the first game of Tuesday's doubleheader with the Padres in San Diego, Patrick Lyons of TheDNVR.com reports.

Feltner has started seven games for the Rockies this season and owns a 5.59 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 35:10 K:BB in 37 big-league innings. Unless Colorado deals away another starting pitcher prior to Tuesday's trade deadline, Feltner will likely be headed back to Albuquerque immediately after his outing against San Diego.

Gray was removed from Monday's game against the Orioles in the second inning with left side discomfort.

Gray's injury forced him to leave Monday's outing after he threw just 48 pitches. It remains to be seen if he will be available to make what was set to be his second start of the week Saturday.

Hill (knee) was activated from the 15-day injured list Monday, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.

The Red Sox have confirmed starters for the next few days, and it was reported earlier in the day that Hill would not start for the big club Wednesday as scheduled, so perhaps he is going to work out of the bullpen as a piggyback option for now. He gave up one run on four hits and zero walks while striking out five in three innings in his rehab outing last week.

May (elbow) could make two more rehab starts before returning from the injured list, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

May threw 46 pitches in his last rehab start, so he still has some stamina to build up before being ready for his first big-league appearance of the season. If all goes well in the next couple weeks, May could be activated by the Dodgers at some point in the middle of August.

Velasquez (finger) is on the verge of beginning a rehab assignment, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Velasquez has missed nearly a month with his injury, but he is just about to enter the final stage of his recovery. It's unclear how many times Velasquez will throw in the minors before rejoining the big club, but he should do so at some point this month.

Bello is expected to start Wednesday against the Astros, Chris Cotillo of The Springfield Republican reports.

Bello worked behind an opener in his last outing, but it appears he will open the game on the mound in his next appearance.

Hill (knee) will not return to action Wednesday against the Astros, Pete Abraham of The Boston Globe reports.

It was reported earlier Monday that Hill was on track to return to action Wednesday, but it turns out he is not ready to rejoin Boston's rotation just yet. Brayan Bello will get the nod Wednesday for the Red Sox.

Schmidt was optioned to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Monday.

The Yankees traded for Frankie Montas and Lou Trivino earlier in the day, so they need to clear space on the active roster. Schmidt has a 2.40 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 29 strikeouts in 30 innings across 16 MLB appearances this year.

Severino (lat) was transferred to the 60-day injured list Monday.

Severino began a throwing program Monday, but with him moving to the longer of the two injured lists, he will not be eligible to return to action until Sept. 13.

Keller's next scheduled start will come Tuesday against the White Sox, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.

Keller was lined up to start Monday night, but the Royals decided to go with Daniel Lynch instead and push Keller back a day.
