  • Yankees' Carlos Lagrange: Expected back Tuesday

    Lagrange (shoulder) is on track to be activated from the 7-day injured list for Tuesday's game at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, Francys Romero of BeisbolFR.com reports.

    Lagrange has been on the shelf since suffering a right shoulder sprain in early July. He began a throwing program July 28, and after pitching against live hitters Sept. 4, he's ready to take the bump Tuesday at Triple-A. The team has already communicated that the right-hander is unlikely to pitch in the big leagues this season, but it's still a positive development that he's ready to get back on the mound before the 2026 season comes to an end.

  • Pirates' Jhostynxon Garcia: Returns from IL

    Garcia (undisclosed) was activated from the 7-day injured list Wednesday.

    Garcia made three rehab appearances at High-A Greensboro in early September, and he's since been given the green light to return to action at Triple-A Indianapolis. He's gone 4-for-14 with a home run and three runs in four games since his return from the IL.

  • Phillies' Andrew Hoffmann: Back in action at Triple-A

    Hoffmann (undisclosed) was activated from the 60-day injured list Friday.

    Hoffmann was cut loose by the Diamondbacks on Aug. 20, but it didn't take long for him to find a new landing spot in Philly. He made one rehab appearance at Single-A Clearwater on Sept. 4, when he tossed a scoreless inning, and he's since been reinstated from the MiLB IL. He made his debut for Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Friday, allowing one walk while fanning two over 1.1 frames.

    Rojas (oblique) was activated from the 7-day injured list Sunday.

    Rojas landed on the injured list Aug. 22 after picking up a right oblique strain. He didn't show any signs of rust in his return to action Sunday, tossing two scoreless frames while walking one and striking out one against Triple-A Syracuse.

  • Hyun-Seok Jang SP | LAD

    Dodgers' Hyun-Seok Jang: Returns to health

    Jang (undisclosed) was activated from the 7-day injured list Sept. 6.

    It's not clear at this time what forced Jang to the injured list for the last four-plus weeks, but he was cleared to return for one of his club's final games of the 2026 campaign. He was knocked around for two runs (one earned) on three hits and two walks while striking out two across one inning Sept. 6 against High-A Lake County.

  • Red Sox's Yordanny Monegro: Back in action

    Monegro (elbow) was activated from the 60-day injured list Friday.

    Monegro made his Double-A debut Friday after undergoing Tommy John surgery during the summer of 2025. He put together a decent showing against the Rumble Ponies, surrendering one run on three hits and two walks while striking out one over three innings of work.

  • Bobby Miller RP | LAD

    Dodgers' Bobby Miller: Rejoins big-league bullpen

    The Dodgers recalled Miller from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Monday.

    Miller made one appearance for the Dodgers earlier this month, allowing one run over three innings of work. He was knocked around for five runs over 1.2 innings in his last outing at Oklahoma City and will be utilized in low-leverage situations in the Dodgers bullpen.

  • Dodgers' Edgardo Henriquez: Shelved by back issue

    The Dodgers placed Henriquez on the 15-day injured list Monday with low-back discomfort.

    The transaction means Henriquez's regular season is over, though there's a good chance he will be back once the playoffs roll around. Manager Dave Roberts stated the right-hander will be sent for imaging to get a better idea of the severity of the injury, per Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic. Henriquez has had a breakout season in the Dodgers' bullpen, accruing a 2.85 ERA and 71:25 K:BB over 60 innings.

  • Braves' AJ Smith-Shawver: Shifting to bullpen

    Atlanta manager Walt Weiss said Monday that Smith-Shawver is moving to the team's bullpen, Jesus Cano of The Athletic reports.

    Smith-Shawver has struggled in his five starts with the big club this season, collecting a 7.71 ERA, 1.81 WHIP and 18:13 K:BB over 21 innings. His stuff could play up in the bullpen, and Atlanta wants to give Smith-Shawver a trial run in a relief role down the stretch to see if he can help in that capacity in the playoffs.

  • Aaron Judge RF | NYY

    Yankees' Aaron Judge: Day off expected Wednesday

    Yankees manager Aaron Boone said Monday that he tentatively plans to give Judge a day off for Wednesday's series finale in Minnesota, Greg Joyce of the New York Post reports.

    The Yankees have eased Judge back into full-time duty since he returned from a three-plus month absence, giving him one day off and pulling him early from two games last week. Boone plans to give the slugger one more day off Wednesday, and after that Judge is expected to be full-go. Judge is 3-for-17 with a 1:9 BB:K in five contests since returning from his rib injury.
