The Phillies recalled Stevenson from Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Sunday, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.

The 28-year-old missed out on the Opening Day roster but is up with Philadelphia on Sunday as Brandon Marsh (hamstring) lands on the injured list. Stevenson had a .708 OPS in 18 games across a couple regular-season stints with the Phillies last season, and he isn't likely to have a significant role while up in the majors this time around.

The Phillies placed Marsh on the 10-day injured list Sunday, retroactive to April 17, due to a right hamstring strain, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.

The outfielder sat out the previous three games after tweaking his knee Wednesday against the Giants, but the hamstring issue is what prompted his move to the IL. Marsh is 0-for-31 with 11 strikeouts and five walks in his past 14 contests, and the injury could provide him with an opportunity to regroup. Johan Rojas should see the bulk of the playing time in center field, though Cal Stevenson was also called up Sunday.

Candelario is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Orioles.

Candelario has a double and a homer in his past two games, but he has only one other hit in his last 11 contests. Spencer Steer is starting at first base for the first time this season after playing through a shoulder issue to start the year.

The Reds placed Spiers on the 15-day injured list Sunday due to a right shoulder impingement, Charlie Goldsmith of the Dayton Daily News reports.

The 27-year-old was called up Friday and was scheduled to start Sunday in place of Nick Lodolo (paternity), but Hunter Greene's short outing Saturday resulted in Spiers covering four frames out of the bullpen. The right-hander apparently tweaked his shoulder while giving up four runs, so he'll be sidelined for at least the next couple weeks. Randy Wynne was selected to the MLB roster Sunday and could provide some length behind opener Brent Suter against the Orioles.

Suter will start Sunday's game against the Orioles, Charlie Goldsmith of the Dayton Daily News reports.

Sunday's previously scheduled starter Carson Spiers was needed to pitch Saturday and is now on the injured list with a shoulder issue, prompting the Reds to turn to Suter as an opener for the series finale in Baltimore. The left-hander has given up two earned runs with a 3:1 K:BB across 6.2 innings this season, and he should turn things over to the Cincinnati bullpen after an inning or two. Randy Wynne was added to the roster for Sunday's contest and is a candidate to work in bulk relief.

The Reds selected Wynne's contract from Triple-A Louisville on Sunday, Charlie Goldsmith of the Dayton Daily News reports.

The right-hander could provide some length behind opener Brent Suter versus the Orioles on Sunday, though the Reds haven't announced their pitching plans beyond Suter. Wynne has a 3.06 ERA, 0.99 WHIP and 8:2 K:BB across 17.2 innings through four starts with Louisville this season, and if he does pitch Sunday, it will be his first big-league appearance since he made his debut in 2023.

Rogers picked up a hold in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Angels, pitching a perfect inning and striking out one.

Rogers entered the game in the eighth frame and retired the side, throwing eight of his 12 pitches for strikes. The veteran right-hander hasn't allowed a hit in his last three appearances, and he's been charged with only one earned run this season. Over 11 appearances in the 2025 campaign, Rogers has recorded a 0.87 ERA, 0.68 WHIP and a 9:2 K:BB with six holds across 10.1 innings.

Chapman went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk during Saturday's 3-2 win over the Angels.

Chapman put the Giants on the board in the first frame, blasting a 384-foot homer to left field off righty Kyle Hendricks. The third baseman has delivered four multi-hit games over his last five appearances, hitting .500 with five RBI, two home runs, a double and a 5:4 BB:K in that span. The 31-year-old owns the Giants' second-highest on-base percentage through 21 games and is now slashing .250/.407/.458 with a 19:23 BB:K across 91 plate appearances.

Yates (1-1) allowed two runs on two hits without recording an out to take the loss and a blown save Saturday against the Rangers.

The right-hander entered to protect a 3-2 lead in the ninth inning against his former club, but a Josh Smith double and Adolis Garcia two-run homer quickly resulted in a walk-off win for the Rangers. It was the first save chance of the year for Yates, who entered the contest with six straight scoreless appearances and a 1.74 ERA for the season. Tanner Scott picked up his seventh save of the campaign in Friday's contest and should continue to operate as manager Dave Roberts' primary option at closer.

Hays went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in Saturday's 9-5 loss to the Orioles.

Hays popped his home run in the ninth inning and has hit safely in all five games since being activated off the injured list last Tuesday. The long ball was his third to go along with seven RBI.
