The Dodgers activated Kim (shoulder) from the 10-day injured list Monday.

Back to full health after he had been on the shelf since July 28 due to shoulder bursitis, Kim will join the Dodgers following a nine-appearance rehab assignment in which he slashed .324/.368./412 with a 3:10 BB:K and a stolen base. During his time in the majors this season, Kim has seen playing time at second base, shortstop and center field, but he saw three starts in left field during his rehab assignment and could emerge as an option at the position with the Dodgers in September. Michael Conforto has served as Los Angeles' primary left fielder this season, but he's mustered a lowly .628 OPS through 414 plate appearances.

The Rays recalled Kelly from Triple-A Durham on Monday.

Kelly holds an unsightly 5.93 ERA and 1.57 WHIP through 27.1 innings with the Rays this season. He'll give the club another relief arm for the final month of the campaign.

The Orioles recalled Handley from Triple-A Norfolk on Monday.

Handley will provide the Orioles with a third catching option in September, joining Samuel Basallo and Alex Jackson. The 27-year-old has previously logged 41 plate appearances with the Orioles earlier this season, slashing .073/.133/.073 with three RBI and two runs in 16 games.

The Rays activated Palacios (knee/hamstring) from the 60-day injured list Monday.

Palacios has been limited to just one game for the Rays this season, first due to a fractured finger and more recently because of knee and hamstring problems. However, the 28-year-old recently played nine rehab games with Triple-A Durham -- going 6-for-33 with two home runs -- and is ready to rejoin the big club. Palacios should see a decent amount of playing time during the final month between second base and the outfield.

The Orioles activated Suarez (shoulder) from the 60-day injured list Monday.

Suarez hasn't pitched in the big leagues since suffering a shoulder strain in his first appearance of the season back on March 28. He made five rehab appearances, registering a 3.55 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 5:6 K:BB across 12.2 innings of work. Now healthy again, Suarez is expected to work as a long-relief option for Baltimore.

Atlanta transferred Riley (abdomen) from the 10-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Monday.

The transaction frees a spot on the 40-man roster for the addition of Ha-Seong Kim (back), who was claimed off waivers from the Rays on Monday. Riley underwent season-ending core surgery nearly two weeks ago and is expected to be ready for spring training.

Brewers manager Pat Murphy said that Megill (elbow) has been playing catch and has a bullpen session scheduled for Thursday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Megill landed on the 15-day injured list last Wednesday with a Grade 1 right flexor strain, but he's aiming for a minimum-length stay on the IL and appears to be tracking toward achieving that goal. The reliever will be eligible for activation Sept. 9. Abner Uribe has been filling in as the Brewers' closer since Megill was placed on the shelf.

Hill was removed from Monday's game against the Nationals in the third inning due to right hamstring discomfort, Stephen Strom of Marlins Radio Network reports.

Hill sustained the injury while running to first base on his lone plate appearance of the day, when he reached on a throwing error. The Marlins summoned Victor Mesa from the bench to pinch run for Hill, who could be subject to further testing on the hamstring injury before Miami determines whether he'll require a stint on the injured list.

Atlanta claimed Kim (back) off waivers from Tampa Bay on Monday, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports.

Atlanta will be on the hook for the roughly $2 million remaining on Kim's contract this season, and the 29-year-old holds a $16 million player option for 2026. Kim had been on the shelf since Aug. 21 due to lower back inflammation, but he's ready for activation, according to Rosenthal. The 29-year-old infielder got off to a delayed start of the 2025 season after undergoing labrum surgery last fall, and he's slashed just .214/.290/.321 over 24 games at the big-league level while also missing time with calf, foot and back injuries. Once he's reinstated, Kim could wind up getting a look in an everyday role at shortstop for Atlanta down the stretch.

The Marlins promoted White from Double-A Pensacola to Triple-A Jacksonville on Monday, Kevin Barral of FishonFirst.com reports.

White earned the promotion following a dominant stint at Pensacola, where he held a 1.59 ERA and 75:24 K:BB over 45.1 innings covering 10 starts. Between Pensacola and High-A Beloit this season, the southpaw has collected a 2.13 ERA and 128:41 K:BB across 80.1 frames. White won't turn 21 years old until later this month and probably won't be under consideration for a major-league promotion until 2026, but he's established himself as one of the better pitching prospects in baseball.
