Triple-A Salt Lake activated Moore (leg) from the 7-day injured list Monday.

Moore has been cleared to return to action after missing more than two weeks with a leg injury. The 23-year-old has offered a mixed bag at Salt Lake this season, slashing .219/.437/.452 with two home runs, four stolen bases and a 28:24 BB:K over 21 contests. The Angels remain unsettled at second base, so Moore could push for a promotion if he gets hot.

The White Sox signed Harris to a minor-league contract Monday, James Fegan of SoxMachine.com reports.

It's a return to the organization Harris started with this season before he went from the White Sox to the Astros via waivers last month. In 17 games this season between both stops, Harris has slashed .233/.333/.302 with no home runs, four stolen bases and a 6:7 BB:K. He will report to Triple-A Charlotte.

Curry signed a minor-league contract with the Mets on Saturday.

Curry was assigned to Triple-A Syracuse and made his organizational debut Sunday, starting in an 8-5 loss to Rochester while striking out four batters and allowing two runs on five hits and no walks over five innings. The 27-year-old righty appeared in three games out of the Miami bullpen in 2025, but he's unlikely to be in the mix for a call-up to New York anytime soon unless the Mets' pitching staff gets decimated by injuries.

Harbin (lat) re-signed with the Pirates on a minor-league deal Saturday.

Pittsburgh added Harbin to its 40-man roster over the winter, but he has yet to pitch this season after suffering a right lat strain early in spring training. The Pirates designated Harbin for assignment in late April and then released him once he cleared waivers, but the right-handed reliever found his way back to the organization and will pitch out of the Triple-A Indianapolis bullpen once he's back to full health.

Garcia (elbow) made his first rehab appearance Thursday in the rookie-level Florida Complex League, recording two outs while giving up one earned run on two hits.

Garcia took the hill for his first game action since July 2, 2025, after he closed last season on Toronto's injured list due to an ankle sprain and then right elbow discomfort caused by scar tissue, which he had cleaned up through surgery in September. The 35-year-old was limited during spring training while rebounding from the procedure, but after facing hitters without issue over the past few weeks, he received clearance to begin a rehab assignment. Garcia could need most of the 30-day rehab window to round into form and knock off rust, so he may not be an option for the Toronto bullpen until late May or early June.

Giolito struck out three batters and allowed one earned run on three hits and no walks over six innings in a start Sunday for Double-A San Antonio.

Making his fourth appearance in the minors since signing a one-year deal with San Diego on April 22, Giolito delivered his best performance yet. He displayed pinpoint control in the start, pumping in 52 of his 74 pitches for strikes while not walking a batter or throwing a wild pitch for the first time during his rehab assignment. The Padres haven't decided on Giolito's next steps, but based on both the form he showed and the workload he handled Sunday, the right-hander appears ready to make his 2026 MLB debut for his next appearance. He could join the Padres in Seattle to make a start during the club's three-game series versus the Mariners this coming weekend.

Tauchman (knee) is still rehabbing at the Mets' spring training complex and has yet to resume baseball activities, Tim Britton of The Athletic reports.

New York could use a boost to its struggling offense, but it doesn't look like Tauchman will be a potential solution any time soon after undergoing knee surgery in late March. He was originally given a six-week recovery timeline, but the 35-year-old outfielder may not be back in the lineup for Triple-A Syracuse until June.

The Padres reinstated Wagner (oblique) from the 10-day injured list Thursday and optioned him to Triple-A El Paso.

Wagner opened the season on the shelf after he strained his right oblique at the beginning of March. After a prolonged shutdown, Wagner was cleared to begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A to kick off May, and since the Padres didn't have room for him on their big-league bench, he'll end up sticking around at El Paso on a longer-term basis. Through his first seven games at Triple-A, Wagner has slashed .300/.548/.350 with two stolen bases and a 9:6 BB:K over 31 plate appearances.

The Brewers outrighted Jones to Triple-A Nashville on Friday.

Jones will stick around in the Milwaukee organization after the Brewers designated him for assignment last week. While serving in a utility role during his three-week stay with the big club, Jones went 2-for-21 with a 0:9 BB:K.

Atlanta re-signed Azocar to a minor-league contract Monday.

Azocar elected free agency last week rather than accepting an outright assignment from Atlanta, but he's now back in the organization on a new deal. The 29-year-old will give Atlanta some experienced outfield depth at Triple-A Gwinnett.
