Keider Montero SP | DET
Tigers' Keider Montero: Picking up another start
Montero is slated to start Saturday's game against Atlanta at Comerica Park.
After being called up from Triple-A Toledo on Sept. 3, Montero made his first two appearances with the Tigers as a reliever before being called upon to make a start in Miami last Sunday. The right-hander acquitted himself well in that outing, earning a win while striking out five over five shutout innings. He'll be rewarded with another turn through the rotation as a result of his prior performance, and he could have a slightly longer leash after tossing just 76 pitches against the Marlins before being removed from the contest.

White Sox's Owen White: Activated, optioned to Triple-A
The White Sox Sox" data-type="SPORTS_OBJECT_TEAM" data-league-abbreviation="MLB" data-team-abbreviation="CHW">White Sox reinstated White (hip) from the injured list Saturday and optioned him to Triple-A Charlotte, Jack Ankony of SI.com reports.
A right hip impingement has kept White on the shelf since mid-August. He began a rehab assignment in Triple-A on Aug. 28 and has since given up just two runs over 11.2 innings while striking out nine batters and walking five. Now fully healthy, he'll stay put in the minors, although the White Sox could promote him during the final week of the regular season to give their bullpen a fresh arm.

Reed Garrett RP | NYM
Mets' Reed Garrett: Headed for surgery
Garrett has been recommended for Tommy John surgery, but he may delay a decision on that procedure until he recovers from another surgery on his arm, Tim Britton of The Athletic reports.
The 32-year-old reliever landed on the IL on Thursday, and he appears headed for a lengthy absence. Garrett is already set for surgery to shift a nerve in his pitching arm that's been causing him issues, and he may elect to undergo PRP injections this winter after recovering to see if his elbow can recover without full Tommy John surgery. If he takes that route and still needs to go under the knife, however, Garrett might not be ready to pitch again until the 2027 season.

Petey Halpin CF | CLE
Guardians' Petey Halpin: Selected from Columbus
The Guardians recalled Halpin from Triple-A Columbus on Saturday.
Halpin has spent the entire season at Triple-A, slashing .249/.321/.414 with 14 homers, 44 RBI, 86 runs scored and 15 stolen bases over 126 games.

He will be making his MLB debut whenever he gets into a game.

Tylor Megill SP | NYM
Mets' Tylor Megill: Surgery likely on horizon
Megill (elbow) is expected to need Tommy John surgery, Tim Britton of The Athletic reports.
The right-hander is still getting opinions on the best path forward, but surgery on his elbow appears to be the most likely outcome. Megill hasn't pitched for the Mets since June 14, and full Tommy John surgery, rather than a hybrid or internal brace procedure, would sideline him for at least the entire 2026 season. He wraps up the current campaign with a 3.95 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and 89:33 K:BB through 68.1 innings over 14 starts.

He'll finish the 2025 campaign with a .211/.296/.304 batting line alongside five homers, 34 RBI, 34 runs scored and eight steals across 403 plate appearances. Petey Halpin was promoted from Triple-A Columbus to replenish Cleveland's outfield depth.

George Springer DH | TOR
Blue Jays' George Springer: Reaches 30 homers
Springer went 2-for-3 with a walk and a solo home run in Friday's loss to the Royals.
The veteran outfielder led off the game with his 30th homer of the year, but it was the only bright spot for the Blue Jays in an ugly 20-1 rout.

He's finishing out the 2025 regular season on a high note, slashing .328/.416/.642 over 17 games in September with six home runs, 11 RBI and 17 runs.
