Henderson (6-1) earned the win Tuesday against the Pirates, allowing two runs on four hits and one walk while striking out eight over six innings.

Henderson surrendered a solo homer to Jacob Gonzalez on the first pitch of the third inning before Endy Rodriguez led off the fifth with another solo shot. Aside from those two mistakes, the right-hander was in control and capped his outing by striking out the side in order on 13 pitches in the sixth. Henderson has now won six of his last seven major-league starts while posting a 2.19 ERA during that stretch. Through 10 total starts, he owns a 2.70 ERA, 0.90 WHIP and an impressive 11.2 K/9 across 50 innings. His next start is scheduled for Monday against the Padres.

Granillo cleared waivers Tuesday and was outrighted to Triple-A Toledo, Evan Woodbery of MLive.com reports.

Granillo was DFA'd by the Tigers on Friday to make room on the 40-man roster for Max Clark, but the former will officially remain in the organization after passing through waivers. Granillo has given up 10 earned runs in 9.1 big-league innings this season and hasn't found much success in the minors either, logging a 6.88 ERA and 1.61 WHIP across 35.1 Triple-A frames. Barring a drastic turnaround, he isn't likely to contribute for the big club this year.

Rangers manager Skip Schumaker said that Bradford (elbow) will return from the 60-day injured list to start Wednesday's game against the Giants, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.

Bradford missed the entire 2025 campaign due to an elbow injury that eventually required Tommy John surgery, and a setback in his rehab program in early April extended his absence into the second half of this season. The 28-year-old southpaw is finally ready to make his first appearance for the Rangers since Sept. 25, 2024, after he closed the books on a successful four-start rehab assignment. In his final outing with Triple-A Round Rock last Thursday, Bradford built up to four innings and 56 pitches, so the Rangers will likely put a cap on his workload Wednesday.

Bogaerts was removed from Tuesday's game against the Diamondbacks with an apparent foot injury, AJ Cassavell of MLB.com reports.

Bogaerts fouled a ball off his foot during his plate appearance in the seventh inning. He was initially able to remain in the game but was lifted for a pinch runner after drawing a walk. He'll likely be sent in for imaging to determine whether he suffered a fracture, and the Padres may have more information on his status after the game.

Ryan (6-8) took the loss Tuesday against the Royals, allowing five runs (four earned) on seven hits and two walks while striking out three over 5.1 innings.

Kansas City wasted little time getting to Ryan, stringing together two singles and a double in the first inning to score twice. He settled in until the fifth, when Bobby Witt lined a two-run double and later scored to extend the Royals' lead. After posting an impressive 2.85 ERA with a 128:25 K:BB across 110.1 innings before the All-Star break, Ryan has unraveled in the second half, surrendering 17 runs (16 earned) while recording just 10 strikeouts over 15.1 innings in three starts. He now owns a 4.08 ERA and 1.15 WHIP across 125.2 innings this season and is tentatively scheduled to face the Brewers on Sunday.

The Guardians are expected to recall Genao from Triple-A Columbus on Wednesday, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.

Viewed as one of the top prospects in the Guardians' farm system, Genao has spent time at Double-A and Triple-A this season, slashing .299/.400/.458 with 11 homers, 50 RBI, 62 runs and 11 steals to go with a 59:66 BB:K across 95 total games. He may get reps at the hot corner if Jose Ramirez's hand injury ends up sending him to the injured list. Otherwise, Genao could claim the starting shortstop job from Brayan Rocchio, who has posted just a .456 OPS since the All-Star break.

Dobnak (2-0) earned the win Tuesday against the Twins, allowing one run on three hits and three walks while striking out one over five innings.

Dobnak surrendered just one hit through the first three innings before allowing a run in the fourth, when he loaded the bases before a sacrifice fly. The veteran right-hander has been especially outstanding for Kansas City lately, allowing only two runs across his last 27 innings. Through six appearances this season, Dobnak owns a 1.16 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 15:13 K:BB across 31 innings. His next chance to continue his unexpected success is scheduled to come Sunday against the Cubs.

Manager Pat Murphy said Tuesday that Bauers' abdominal soreness could keep him out during Wednesday's game against the Pirates, Jack Stern of BrewerFanatic.com reports.

Murphy noted that Bauers suffered the injury while diving into home during Monday's contest. The team doesn't believe the issue is serious enough to warrant imaging, but he may still miss a second straight game Wednesday as a precaution. As long as Bauers is out, Andrew Vaughn will get opportunities to start at first base, and Luis Lara will continue to see consistent time in the outfield.

O'Neill homered in his lone at-bat as a pinch hitter during Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Angels.

O'Neill gave the Orioles an insurance run in the eighth inning Tuesday. Baltimore traded away Taylor Ward on Monday, opening up plenty of reps in its outfield, and O'Neill is making a case in his part-time role for more playing time. He's batting .304 with six homers, two doubles and 10 RBI over his last 46 at-bats (19 games) since the start of July and is now slashing .213/.298/.388 with eight long balls, eight doubles and 18 RBI across 205 plate appearances for the season.

Yesavage is scheduled to undergo an MRI on his left knee Wednesday, Mitch Bannon of The Athletic reports.

Yesavage said he felt a pinch in his knee while warming up for the third inning of Tuesday's tilt against Houston, which prompted an early exit from the game. It remains unknown whether he'll require a trip to the injured list, though his MRI results should provide some answers.
