Manaea (oblique) threw 29 pitches in a live bullpen session Monday, Laura Albanese of Newsday reports.

The Mets will wait to see how Manaea feels following his latest bullpen to determine whether he's ready to embark on a rehab assignment. He's managed to throw several side sessions over the last few weeks as he continues to make his way back from a right oblique strain.

Verlander (pectoral) is scheduled to throw a bullpen session Tuesday, Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Verlander is continuing to work back from a right pectoral strain, and he's set to throw another bullpen after tossing a 40-pitch side session May 27. If the right-hander is able to make it through the bullpen without any issues, he'll be set to face batters later in the week, per Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area, and the club could then consider activating him at some point over the weekend.

Glasnow (shoulder) continues to play catch, but body soreness has slowed his progress, Matthew Moreno of DodgerBlue.com reports.

Glasnow threw a bullpen session May 23, which ultimately resulted in some body soreness for the right-hander. The 31-year-old has been on the injured list since late April with right shoulder inflammation, and the team is still trying to figure out how and when to start ramping him back up. Glasnow was transferred to the 60-day IL on Saturday and he's not eligible to be activated until June 27, but the likelihood of him returning to action then feels slim.

Hoglund was placed on the 15-day injured list Monday due to a left hip impingement.

Hoglund was torched for eight runs on 10 hits in his previous start Saturday, though it's unclear if he suffered the injury during this outing or if this is an issue he's been dealing with for some time. Elvis Alvarado was promoted to the big leagues in one of the team's corresponding moves, but another move is presumably in the works considering Alvarado hasn't made a start this year.

Gomber (shoulder) will resume a rehab assignment with Double-A Hartford on Tuesday, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

Gomber came down with soreness in his pitching shoulder during spring training and then had to be pulled off his initial rehab assignment in late March when the discomfort resurfaced. However, the southpaw is now ready to give it another try. He could rejoin the Rockies' rotation later this month if all goes well.

The Mets activated Blackburn (knee) from the 15-day injured list Monday.

Blackburn is set to start Monday's game against the Dodgers in what will be his season debut for the Mets after he recovered from right knee inflammation. The veteran right-hander will be part of a six-man rotation for at least this week.

Dollander (forearm) will be activated from the 15-day injured list and start Tuesday in Miami, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

Dollander went on the IL less than two weeks ago with right forearm tightness but has been cleared to return after getting through a live batting practice session last week with no issues. He will be skipping a rehab assignment, so Dollander might not be ready for a full workload versus the Marlins.

The Angels recalled Aldegheri from Double-A Rocket City on Monday.

Aldegheri made three starts for the Angels late last season, but he'll be back with the big club for the first time in 2025 after being optioned to the minors early on in spring training. The 23-year-old lefty has continued his development as a starter this season at Rocket City, where he had posted a 4.54 ERA and 1.46 WHIP over 41.2 innings across his eight outings. The Angels don't appear to have an opening in the rotation at the moment, so Aldegheri is likely to slot in as a multi-inning reliever for the time being.

The Tigers designated Cusick for assignment Monday.

The transaction clears a spot on the 40-man roster for outfielder Parker Meadows (arm), who was reinstated from the 60-day injured list. The Tigers claimed Cusick off waivers from the Athletics last week, but he made just one appearance for Triple-A Toledo before Detroit booted him off the roster.

The Yankees will place Carrasco on outright waivers prior to Tuesday's game against the Guardians, Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports.

Carrasco was added to the big-league roster Sunday as bullpen protection but did not make an appearance. He accepted an outright assignment by the Yankees in May and could do so again.
