    Brewers' Enoli Paredes: Shifts to 60-day IL

    The Brewers transferred Paredes (forearm) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Sunday.

    The transaction clears room on the 40-man roster for southpaw DL Hall (knee), who was activated from the 60-day injured list ahead of his scheduled start Sunday versus the Reds. Paredes was initially placed on the IL on July 3 due to right forearm tendinitis and won't be eligible to rejoin the Milwaukee bullpen until early September.

  • Jarred Kelenic LF | TEX

    Braves' Jarred Kelenic: On bench Sunday

    Kelenic is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rockies.

    Kelenic went 3-for-8 with a double and two runs in the first two games of the series but will sit for Sunday's finale. Adam Duvall will start in left field while Eli White starts in center.

  • Scott McGough RP | ATH

    Diamondbacks' Scott McGough: Sent to Triple-A

    The Diamondbacks optioned McGough to Triple-A Reno on Sunday, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.

    The right-hander was called up by Arizona on Friday and will return to Reno after he delivered two scoreless frames during Saturday's contest. McGough has a 6.83 ERA, 1.62 WHIP and 20:19 K:BB across 29 major-league innings this year.

  • Merrill Kelly SP | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Merrill Kelly: Activated for start Sunday

    The Diamondbacks reinstated Kelly (shoulder) from the 60-day injured list to start Sunday's game against the Phillies, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.

    The 35-year-old right-hander has been sidelined since mid-April due to a teres major strain of his right shoulder, but he's ready to rejoin Arizona's rotation after one rehab start. Kelly threw 62 pitches over four innings for High-A Hillsboro in that outing, so he'll likely face some workload limitations in his first couple starts back in the majors. He posted a 2.19 ERA, 0.93 WHIP and 21:6 K:BB over 24.2 innings prior to going down with the injury.

  • Brewers' Garrett Mitchell: Getting day off against lefty

    Mitchell is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Reds.

    After starting each of Milwaukee's last six games, the lefty-hitting Mitchell will head to the bench as Cincinnati sends southpaw Nick Lodolo to the mound. Blake Perkins will take Mitchell's spot in the outfield and will bat sixth.

  • Brice Turang 2B | MIL

    Brewers' Brice Turang: Idle against lefty

    Turang is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Reds.

    The lefty-hitting Turang will retreat to the bench for the series finale while southpaw Nick Lodolo takes the hill for Cincinnati. Jackson Chourio will assume leadoff duties Sunday, while Andruw Monasterio takes Turang's usual spot in the field at second base.

  • Jake Bauers 1B | MIL

    Brewers' Jake Bauers: Out of lineup vs. lefty

    Bauers is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Reds.

    With southpaw Nick Lodolo on the bump for Cincinnati, the lefty-hitting Bauers will stick on the bench for the second day in a row. Bauers' absence will free up a spot in the lineup for Gary Sanchez, who will serve as the Brewers' catcher while William Contreras gets a day off behind the plate and draws a start at designated hitter.

  • Reds' Jeimer Candelario: Out of Sunday's lineup

    Candelario is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Brewers.

    Candelario will sit after going 0-for-3 on Saturday to end a seven-game hit streak. Jonathan India will serve as the designated hitter while Santiago Espinal starts at second base.

  • Jake Fraley RF | TB

    Reds' Jake Fraley: Resting against lefty

    Fraley is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Brewers.

    The lefty-hitting Fraley will bow out of the starting nine while the Brewers bring a southpaw (DL Hall) to the hill for the series finale. Stuart Fairchild will check in for Fraley in right field.

  • Josh Rogers RP | COL

    Rockies' Josh Rogers: Contract selected

    The Rockies selected Rogers' contract from Triple-A Albuquerque on Sunday.

    The left-hander was designated for assignment by the Rockies in mid-July but will return to the big-league roster for Sunday's series finale versus Atlanta. Rogers has a 6.75 ERA over 9.1 frames in the majors this season and should fill a low-leverage role out of the bullpen.
