    Brewers' Cooper Pratt: Targeting late-August return

    Pratt (hamstring) is expected to return from the injured list sometime in late August, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

    Manager Pat Murphy said Tuesday that Pratt is making good progress in his recovery from a strained right hamstring, but he's still likely multiple weeks out from returning to the starting lineup. With Joey Ortiz (back) also dealing with an injury, David Hamilton and Ji Hwan Bae have seen an increase in playing time recently.

  • Tyler Glasnow SP | LAD

    Dodgers' Tyler Glasnow: Set for another rehab start Friday

    Glasnow (back) will make another minor-league rehab start with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Friday, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

    Glasnow is set to be stretched out to roughly four innings and/or 60 total pitches in the outing as the Dodgers continue to slowly ease him back into a full workload. The right-hander is then expected to throw one more rehab start following Friday's outing before Los Angeles would consider activating him from the 60-day injured list. Glasnow has been sidelined since May 8 while recovering from lower back spasms, and he appears to be on track to return to the major-league roster before the end of August.

  • Zac Gallen SP | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Zac Gallen: Successful bullpen session Tuesday

    Gallen (elbow) completed a 33-pitch bullpen session in Arizona on Tuesday, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.

    Gallen was able to complete the throwing session without any issues, successfully taking the next step in his recovery from right elbow inflammation. The right-hander isn't eligible to be activated from the 60-day injured list until Sept. 7, so Gallen could throw another bullpen session or two before moving on to facing live hitters and eventually heading out on a rehab assignment.

  • Corbin Burnes SP | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Corbin Burnes: Completes bullpen session

    Burnes (elbow/shoulder) threw a 30-pitch bullpen session in Arizona on Tuesday, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.

    Burnes has been sidelined for the entirety of the 2026 campaign while recovering from June 2025 Tommy John surgery and a teres major strain, the latter of which resulted in him being shut down from throwing in early June. The right-hander has been throwing bullpen sessions for approximately two weeks and looks to be on track for a return from the 60-day injured list in early September.

  • Blake Treinen RP | LAD

    Dodgers' Blake Treinen: Transferred to 60-day IL

    Treinen (elbow) was transferred to the 60-day injured list Tuesday.

    Treinen has been on the injured list since June 20 while recovering from right elbow inflammation, and he was able to face live hitters July 29. The 38-year-old will still be eligible to be activated from the IL late next week, though he will likely require a multi-outing minor-league rehab assignment, making a return in late August or early September more likely. In a corresponding move, Blake Snell (elbow) was activated from the 60-day IL on Tuesday.

  • Charlie Barnes RP | LAD

    Dodgers' Charlie Barnes: Optioned to OKC

    The Dodgers optioned Barnes to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Tuesday.

    Barnes was brought up to the big club Monday, but he'll now be pushed off the active roster without making an appearance for the Dodgers to make room for Blake Snell (elbow), who returned from the IL to start Tuesday's game against Kansas City. Barnes has given up 10 runs in 13 major-league innings this season but could return to Los Angeles down the stretch to provide a fresh bullpen arm.

  • Blake Snell SP | LAD

    Dodgers' Blake Snell: Activated from IL ahead of start

    Snell (elbow) was activated from the 60-day injured list ahead of his start Tuesday night against the Royals.

    Snell will officially make his return to action with the Dodgers after missing nearly three months while recovering from a procedure to remove loose bodies from his left elbow. The southpaw has made just one start with Los Angeles this season, surrendering five runs (four earned) on six hits and two walks while striking out five batters over three innings May 9 versus Atlanta. Snell was able to build up to 73 total pitches in his final minor-league rehab start Aug. 4 with Triple-A Oklahoma City, so he will likely be able to handle a somewhat regular workload against Kansas City.

  • Dodgers' Teoscar Hernandez: Sitting Tuesday

    Hernandez isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Royals, Kirsten Watson of Spectrum SportsNet LA reports.

    Hernandez will get a chance to recollect himself after going just 1-for-17 across his last six games. Alex Call will fill in as the Dodgers' left fielder and bat eighth.

  • Giants' Eddys Leonard: Designated for assignment

    The Giants designated Leonard for assignment Tuesday, Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

    Leonard will end up as the odd man out of a 40-man roster spot following Victor Bericoto's (oblique) return from the injured list and the signing of Andrew Knizner. Leonard went 2-for-8 with a double and two strikeouts during the first three games of his MLB career.

  • Giants' Victor Bericoto: Activated from IL, batting fifth

    San Francisco reinstated Bericoto (oblique) from the 10-day injured list Tuesday.

    After spending just over a month on the shelf with a left oblique strain, Bericoto completed a rehab assignment and was cleared to return to the big-league squad Tuesday. In 59 major-league plate appearances this season, the 24-year-old has slashed .293/.305/.552 with four home runs and nine RBI. The Giants designated Eddys Leonard for assignment to make room for Bericoto on the active roster.
