The Rockies selected Manfredi's contract from Triple-A Albuquerque on Wednesday.

Manfredi joined the Rockies organization at the trade deadline as part of the deal that sent Antonio Senzatela to Milwaukee. The 26-year-old righty owns a 4.45 ERA and 1.38 WHIP across 28.1 innings at Triple-A this season but has given up six runs in just five frames with Albuquerque since being traded. Despite his recent performance, the Rockies will add him to their bullpen to provide a fresh arm. Parker Mushinski was designated for assignment in a corresponding move.

The Rockies optioned Shook to Triple-A Albuquerque on Wednesday.

Shook was recalled by the Rockies on Monday and pitched the same night against the Dodgers, allowing one run on two hits and one walk while striking out one batter across two innings. Colorado will shuffle its bullpen again Wednesday, with Shook going back down to the minors and left-hander Mark Manfredi coming up from Albuquerque to replace him. Shook has spent most of the 2026 season in Triple-A, where he has a 3.02 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and a 45:24 K:BB over 47.2 innings.

Hamilton is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Mariners.

Hamilton typically starts against most righties, but with Cooper Pratt back from the injured list to take over at shortstop, Hamilton and Joey Ortiz will be mixed and matched at third base. It's Ortiz at the hot corner for the Brewers on Wednesday.

Mitchell is not in the lineup for Wednesday's contest against the Mariners.

Logan Gilbert is on the bump for the Mariners, marking the first time since July 7 that the left-handed-hitting Mitchell isn't starting versus a righty hurler. Luis Lara will handle center field and Jake Bauers will be in right field for Milwaukee.

Wilson (shoulder) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Royals.

Wilson will head to the bench for a third straight game while he continues to manage a sore left shoulder. Donovan Walton will draw the start at shortstop in place of Wilson, who is being viewed as day-to-day.

Encarnacion-Strand is out of the lineup for Wednesday's tilt versus the Yankees.

After starting each of the previous seven contests, Encarnacion-Strand will begin Wednesday's game on the bench. Coby Mayo will hold down third base for the Orioles in Encarnacion-Strand's stead.

O'Neill is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game versus the Yankees.

After making six straight starts against right-handed pitching, the lefty-swinging O'Neill will take a seat Wednesday for the second consecutive time versus a righty. Pete Alonso will occupy the designated-hitter slot and Leody Taveras will play right field for Baltimore.

The Giants optioned Sanmartin to Triple-A Sacramento on Wednesday.

Sanmartin will be squeezed off the 26-man active roster after the Giants needed to clear a spot for lefty Matt Wilkinson, who was called up from Triple-A to start Wednesday's game in Cleveland. After being summoned from Sacramento on Aug. 3, Sanmartin made eight relief appearances during his latest stint with the Giants, pitching to a 7.11 ERA, 2.05 WHIP and 6:2 K:BB over 6.1 innings.

Arrighetti (foot) could be activated from the 15-day injured list to start Friday's game against the Yankees, Arden Zwelling of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Arrighetti threw 3.2 innings and 50 pitches in a rehab start with Triple-A Buffalo on Sunday, so if he does come back Friday he would be facing workload limitations. The right-hander is dealing with Morton's neuroma in his right foot, and the expectation is that he will have to pitch through some discomfort down the stretch for the Blue Jays.

The Giants claimed Abner off waivers from the Diamondbacks on Wednesday and optioned him to Triple-A Sacramento.

Abner will reclaim a 40-man roster spot with the move to San Francisco, though he'll have to wait a bit before making his debut with the Giants. The 24-year-old lefty reliever made eight appearances with Arizona at the big-league level this season, posting a 6.28 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 6:8 K:BB over 14.1 innings.
