The Brewers selected Jones' contract from Triple-A Nashville on Tuesday.

Jones went 2-for-21 at the plate during a stint with the Brewers earlier this season and has slashed .289/.423/.380 with one home run and 21 stolen bases with Nashville. The 28-year-old will be a backup at all three outfield spots as well as second base.

The Brewers placed Hamilton on the 10-day injured list Tuesday due to a strained left hamstring.

The 28-year-old departed Monday's victory in St. Louis due to hamstring tightness and will require a trip to the IL after being diagnosed with a strain. It's unclear how long Hamilton is expected to be sidelined, but he'll be eligible to be reinstated immediately out of the All-Star break late next week. Greg Jones was added to the big-league roster in a corresponding move, but the more consequential promotion occurred earlier in the day when the Brewers called up top outfield prospect Luis Lara.

Thomas went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Monday's 15-1 win over the Phillies.

Thomas got in on the offensive explosion against Cristopher Sanchez, belting a solo homer in the fourth inning. With Kyle Isbel (foot) sidelined, Thomas has seen regular playing time in center field and has fared well of late, slashing .296/.345/.556 with a homer, four doubles, three RBI, five runs and a stolen base over his past seven games. Overall, the veteran is hitting .222/.329/.362 with six homers, 11 doubles, 25 RBI, 24 runs and four stolen bases across 76 contests.

Mariners president of baseball operations Jerry Dipoto indicated Tuesday that Canzone will have a full-time spot in the middle of the lineup going forward, regardless of the handedness of the opposing starting pitcher, Adam Jude of The Seattle Times reports.

Canzone has only four starts against left-handed pitching this season, but all four of those games have come in the past month. The 28-year-old has just 29 plate appearances versus southpaws this year, but his .994 OPS against them is apparently enough for Seattle to give him a chance as a true everyday player. Canzone had an .839 OPS in 82 regular-season games as a platoon outfielder in 2025, and he appears firmly on his way to a true breakout season with a .273/.349/.551 slash line and career-high 14 homers through 232 plate appearances thus far in 2026.

Atlanta optioned Murphy to Triple-A Gwinnett on Tuesday.

The right-hander was called up Monday and made his debut in the 10th inning against the Mets, taking the loss after giving up two runs (one earned) on a hit and a hit-by-pitch with one strikeout. Murphy will now return to Gwinnett, where he has a 3.88 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 65:20 K:BB across 11 starts (60.1 innings) this year.

Nunez went 3-for-4 with two runs scored and a stolen base in Monday's win over the Astros.

All three singles were groundballs and two of them never left the infield, as Nunez used his speed to put together a strong line in the box score. The 25-year-old infielder leads the majors with 33 steals on the season, and since the beginning of June he's delivered a .349/.417/.453 slash line over 29 games with one homer, 12 RBI and 15 runs. That surge has boosted his batting average on the season over 50 points, from .189 to a far more respectable .243.

The Orioles recalled Raquet from Triple-A Norfolk on Tuesday.

Raquet has logged three appearances for the Orioles this season, giving up three runs with a 1:2 K:BB. The left-hander will give the club a fresh bullpen arm as it opens a series Tuesday versus the Cubs.

The Twins selected Go's contract from Triple-A St. Paul on Tuesday.

Go was acquired via trade from the Tigers on Sunday and is reporting directly to the major-league roster. The Korean reliever holds a 1.96 ERA and 54:13 K:BB over 41.1 innings between the Double- and Triple-A levels this season. Go -- who turns 28 in August -- will be making his major-league debut when/if he gets into a game.

Benge went 2-for-4 with a walk, a double, a solo home run and a second run scored in Monday's extra-inning win over Atlanta.

The rookie outfielder took Reynaldo Lopez deep in the second inning to get the Mets on the board. Benge has hit safely in 16 of the last 18 games, producing a .282/.325/.500 slash line over that stretch with four of his 11 homers on the season, along with four other extra-base hits, one steal, nine RBI and 10 runs.

Atlanta recalled Karinchak from Triple-A Gwinnett on Tuesday.

The right-hander was optioned to Gwinnett on Friday but will quickly rejoin the MLB bullpen since Tyler Kinley was placed on the paternity list. Karinchak pitched well after being promoted from Triple-A in early June, allowing just two earned runs with a 7:4 K:BB across 8.2 innings.
