The Rockies designated Curtiss for assignment Tuesday.

Curtiss joined the Rockies' bullpen in late July and coughed up four runs over 2.1 innings in his three appearances. Chasen Shreve will absorb his roster spot.

Ramos (thumb) is batting second and playing center field for Tuesday's game against Washington, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Ramos has been dealing with swelling in his right thumb recently and missed three of the Giants' previous four games due to the issue. However, he's feeling good enough to suit up Tuesday. Ramos is 11-for-40 (.275) with seven RBI in his last 10 games.

Rivera is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Reds, Kevin Barral of FishonFirst.com reports.

Rivera started the previous four games and will receive Tuesday off after going 5-for-14 with two walks, a run and a steal during that stretch. Jake Burger will man the hot corner while Jesus Sanchez receives a turn at designated hitter.

The Marlins recalled McCaughan from Triple-A Jacksonville on Tuesday.

McCaughan has made three appearances in the majors this season between the Marlins and Guardians, allowing 14 runs over 10.2 innings. All 14 of his outings in the minors this season have been starts, but he'll fill a long-relief role in Miami.

The Marlins optioned Anderson to Triple-A Jacksonville on Tuesday.

Anderson saved the bullpen with 5.1 innings of relief in Monday's loss to the Reds. He wasn't going to be available to pitch for several days, so the Marlins will replace him with a fresh arm.

Peralta is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Pirates, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

Peralta will take a seat Tuesday as lefty Bailey Falter takes the mound for Pittsburgh. In his place, Bryce Johnson will bat ninth and play right field.

Arraez is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against Pittsburgh, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

Arraez will avoid a matchup with southpaw Bailey Falter, giving way to Jake Cronenworth at first base and Donovan Solano at DH. Arraez has been held out of the lineup in three of the Padres' last six games against left-handed pitching.

Higashioka is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Pirates, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

Higashioka and Luis Campusano have been alternating starts at catcher over the last six games, with each receiving three starts. Higashioka has a career-high 13 homers this season and an .800 OPS across 164 plate appearances.

The Diamondbacks transferred Jarvis (elbow) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Tuesday, Jesse Friedman of GoPHNX.com reports.

The move frees up a spot on the 40-man roster for lefty Eduardo Rodriguez (shoulder), who was reinstated from the 60-day IL ahead of his start Tuesday in Cleveland. Jarvis landed on the IL last with a right elbow sprain, and while it's not clear whether he will need surgery, the move to the 60-day IL effectively ends his season.

The Diamondbacks optioned Castellanos to Triple-A Reno on Tuesday, Jesse Friedman of GoPHNX.com reports.

Castellanos holds a 5.23 ERA and 7:4 K:BB over 10.1 relief innings with Arizona this season. He's been used mostly as a starting pitcher at Reno and could return to that role.
