The Phillies selected McFarlane's contract from Double-A Reading on Tuesday.

McFarlane made his return from Tommy John surgery in 2025 and spent most of the season with High-A Jersey Shore, posting a 4.79 ERA and 1.35 WHIP over 73.1 innings. The right-hander is likely still a couple years away from seeing the majors, but the Phillies still opted to protect him from the upcoming Rule 5 Draft.

The Rockies designated Toglia for assignment Tuesday, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports.

Toglia looked like he was set to be Colorado's first baseman of the future heading into last season, when he opened as the team's primary first baseman. However, the 2019 first-round draft pick struggled mightily during his time in the majors, posting a .190/.258/.353 slash line with a 39.2 percent strikeout rate. While Toglia flashed big power with 25 homers across 457 plate appearances in 2024 and went deep 11 times across 42 games with Triple-A Albuquerque last season, his poor contact against major-league pitching ultimately led to his removal from the Rockies' 40-man roster.

Little was designated for assignment by the Tigers on Tuesday, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports.

Claimed off waivers from the Pirates earlier this month, Little ended up spending less than two weeks on the Tigers' 40-man roster. Little will now be subjected to waivers once again after spending the 2025 season primarily at the Triple-A level, making just a pair of relief appearances with the Dodgers over the summer.

Guenther (hip) was designated for assignment by the Tigers on Tuesday, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports.

Left hip surgery ended Guenther's season in early July after he made nine appearances (one start) with the big-league club over the first two months of the campaign. The left-hander put an impressive 0.86 ERA and 0.52 WHIP in 21 innings out of the Detroit bullpen during the 2024 regular season, and that run of success may be enough to land him on another team's 40-man roster.

The Phillies selected Painter's contract from Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Tuesday.

The 2021 first-round pick returned to action last season for the first time since 2022 after undergoing Tommy John surgery, and he endured some struggles at Lehigh Valley with a 5.40 ERA, 1.55 WHIP and 111:46 K:BB over 106.2 innings. Painter's workload was encouraging, however, and his standing as Philadelphia's top pitching prospect lines him up to potentially make his MLB debut in 2026.

The Cardinals selected Baez's contract from Double-A Springfield on Tuesday, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

Baez adjusted well to Double-A ball upon receiving his promotion in late May, slashing .271/.371/.509 with 16 homers, 55 RBI, 46 runs scored and 33 stolen bases across 79 games at Springfield. His breakout season has earned him a spot on St. Louis' 40-man roster ahead of the Rule 5 Draft in December, and he may be a candidate to make his big-league debut in 2026 if he continues to stuff the stat sheet in the minors.

The Tigers designated Foley (shoulder) for assignment Tuesday, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports.

Widely considered the favorite to close for Detroit entering 2025 spring training, Foley didn't even end up making it to Opening Day, with the Tigers choosing instead to send him to Triple-A Toledo. A right shoulder strain then put Foley on the injured list just weeks into the campaign, leading to season-ending arthroscopic surgery in May. While Foley resumed throwing before the end of the regular season, his status for the start of the 2026 season is uncertain.

The Royals selected Zobac's contract from Double-A Northwest Arkansas on Tuesday, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.

The right-hander missed time in 2025 due to a knee injury, which limited him to 14 appearances. Zobac spent most of the campaign with Northwest Arkansas and had a 7.68 ERA over 36.1 innings, but the Royals still elected to shield him from potentially being selected in the upcoming Rule 5 Draft.

The Royals selected Kudrna's contract from Triple-A Omaha on Tuesday, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.

The 22-year-old righty spent most of last season at Double-A Northwest Arkansas, where he had a 4.21 ERA over 94 innings. Kudrna made four appearances for Omaha late in the season and struggled at the highest level of the minors with a 14.29 ERA.

Darnell (hip) was designated for assignment by the Tigers on Tuesday, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports.

Darnell received his first big-league call-up in August and made nine appearances with the Rockies before landing on the injured list with left hip inflammation. Surgery was deemed necessary, and Darnell has since jumped to Pittsburgh and Detroit on waivers. He will be subjected to the waiver process once again after being DFA'd.
