The Padres optioned Marinaccio to the Arizona Complex League on Wednesday.

The Padres needed to free up a spot on the active roster for the return of David Morgan (shoulder). Marinaccio will stay ready at the team's spring training complex in Arizona in case he's needed later this week or in the postseason.

The Padres activated Morgan (shoulder) from the 15-day injured list Wednesday.

Morgan missed the last two weeks of action with right shoulder inflammation, but he's been cleared to rejoin the Padres' bullpen. The righty has posted a 2.80 ERA and 47:19 K:BB across 45 innings this season for the Friars.

Suwinski is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game in Cincinnati.

Suwinski had started five of the past six games against right-handed pitching, but he'll begin this one on the bench as the Reds send righty Hunter Greene to the bump. Tommy Pham will play right field and bat sixth for the Pirates.

Baez (neck) remains out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Guardians, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.

Baez was originally in Tuesday's lineup against Cleveland but was scratched ahead of the first pitch due to neck stiffness. He evidently needs another day, and Trey Sweeney is manning shortstop for the Tigers and batting ninth.

Santander (shoulder) is in the starting lineup and batting fifth as the designated hitter for Wednesday's game against the Red Sox.

Santander was officially activated from the injured list Tuesday, but this marks his first start since May 29 due to a left shoulder injury. It's been a 2025 season to forget for Santander to this point, as he slashed just .179/.273/.304 with six home runs, 18 RBI, 14 runs scored and a 24:55 BB:K across 209 plate appearances prior to his lengthy stay on the injured list. With the Blue Jays fighting for the AL East crown this final week, Santander will look to provide a source of power in the middle of Toronto's lineup.

Alvarez didn't factor into the decision Wednesday against Atlanta, allowing two hits and three walks across 4.1 scoreless innings. He struck out five.

Alvarez managed to keep Atlanta off the board Wednesday, though he was pulled with two outs in the fifth inning after throwing 83 pitches, just 42 of which were strikes. The 26-year-old Alvarez's MLB career has gotten off to a nice start overall. Through five starts (23.1 innings), the left-hander's allowed eight runs (six earned), posting a 1.11 WHIP with 20 strikeouts while holding opponents to a .184 batting average.

The Marlins recalled Wiemer from Triple-A Jacksonville on Wednesday.

Wiemer was just sent down Monday, but he's back to absorb the roster spot vacated by the injured Dane Myers (knee). The 26-year-old Wiemer could see some action in the outfield versus lefties in the final days of the season.

The Marlins placed Myers on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with a right knee laceration.

Myers suffered the injury during Tuesday's game in Philadelphia when he slammed into the chain-link fence at Citizens Bank Park while attempting a catch. He'll miss the rest of the season but should over a normal offseason.

Ferrer earned the save in Wednesday's 4-3 win over Atlanta, allowing a run on two hits while striking out two in the ninth inning.

Ferrer gave up a leadoff homer to Eli White in the ninth before bearing down to pick up his 10th save this year. The left-hander has been struggling of late, giving up six runs on nine hits in his last four appearances (five innings), though he appears to still have a grasp on the ninth-inning job. Overall, Ferrer's posted a 4.36 ERA with a 1.24 WHIP and 68 strikeouts across 74.1 innings this season.

Wood went 2-for-4 with a pair of solo home runs in Wednesday's 4-3 win over Atlanta.

Wood has gone 4-for-7 with three homers and, notably, no strikeouts in his last two games. He'd gone 15-for-75 (.200) with a 42.9 percent strikeout rate in his previous 19 contests. Overall, the 23-year-old Wood is slashing .256/.352/.475 with 30 homers, 92 RBI, 86 runs scored and 15 stolen bases through 676 plate appearances this season.
