Atlanta transferred Perdomo (elbow) to the 60-day injured list Saturday.
Perdomo was placed on Atlanta's 15-day IL at the beginning of the season after undergoing Tommy John surgery last fall. He wasn't expected to pitch in 2024, and his move to the 60-day IL is procedural to allow Atlanta to select right-hander Jackson Stephens to the active roster.

Braves' Angel Perdomo: Re-signs with Atlanta
Rotowire
Perdomo (elbow) signed a one-year, non-guaranteed split contract with Atlanta on Thursday.
Perdomo was non-tendered by Atlanta last month, a few weeks after being claimed off waivers from the Pirates, but he's back now to continue his Tommy John rehab with the reigning NL East champs. The 29-year-old underwent the reconstructive elbow procedure in October, so he's doubtful to pitch at all in 2024.

Pirates' Angel Perdomo: Placed on waivers
Rotowire
Perdomo (elbow) was placed on waivers Thursday, Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

Pirates' Angel Perdomo: Out with elbow discomfort
Rotowire
The Pirates placed Perdomo on the 15-day injured list Sunday with left elbow discomfort, Alex Stumpf of DKPittsburghSports.com reports.
Perdomo presumably picked up the injury during his most recent relief appearance in the Pirates' 5-1 loss to Minnesota on Friday, when he was touched up for two earned runs on three hits and one walk while retiring two batters. The Pirates could send Perdomo in for additional tests on his elbow to determine if he's dealing with anything more than soreness, but the southpaw will be on the shelf for at least the next two weeks. Right-handed reliever Dauri Moreta (back) was brought back from the 15-day IL in a corresponding move.

Rotowire
Perdomo was suspended three games by Major League Baseball for throwing at Manny Machado on Tuesday night, Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
Perdomo fired an up-and-in pitch to Machado in the bottom of the seventh inning, shortly after serving up a home run to Juan Soto. It was deemed an intentional plunking and Perdomo will not appeal the three-game punishment. Pirates manager Derek Shelton also received a one-game suspension and will serve it during Wednesday's series finale at San Diego. Perdomo is eligible to return Sunday.
The Pirates selected Perdomo's contract from Triple-A Indianapolis on Saturday.
Perdomo holds a 3.18 ERA, 1.31 WHIP and a 35:16 K:BB ratio through 22.2 innings with Indianapolis. He has a bit of MLB experience -- 19.2 innings with the Brewers between 2020-21 -- but didn't find much success with 18 earned runs allowed. Chris Owings was designated for assignment to make room for Perdomo on the active roster.
Perdomo signed a minor-league contract with the Pirates on Thursday.

Rotowire
The Rays outrighted Perdomo to Triple-A Durham on Thursday.
After being claimed off waivers from the Brewers on July 19, Perdomo stayed on the Rays' 40-man roster for about two weeks before being designated for assignment. He'll stay in the Tampa Bay organization as a depth reliever at Triple-A after none of baseball's other 29 teams put in a waiver claim for him.

Rays' Angel Perdomo: Designated for assignment
Rotowire
Perdomo was designated for assignment Saturday, Neil Solondz of the Rays Radio Network reports.
Perdomo was claimed off waivers by the Rays on July 19, but he'll lose his spot on the 40-man roster after Tampa Bay acquired David Peralta from the Diamondbacks on Saturday. Perdomo has struck out 13 in 5.1 scoreless innings over six Triple-A appearances this year and will likely remain in the organization if he goes unclaimed on waivers.

Rays' Angel Perdomo: Claimed by Rays
Rotowire
The Rays claimed Perdomo (hand) off waivers from the Brewers on Tuesday.
Perdomo has been rehabbing from a hand injury and began an assignment in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League a week ago. The lefty will report to Triple-A Durham and looks like he'll be active right away for the affiliate when the minor-league All-Star break ends. Since he'll get a spot on the Rays' 40-man roster, Perdomo should have the opportunity to make his first MLB appearance of 2022 at some point over the next two months.

Brewers' Angel Perdomo: Working back from hand fracture
Rotowire
Perdomo (hand) will begin a rehab assignment with the Brewers' rookie-level Arizona Complex League affiliate Tuesday.
Perdomo has resided on Triple-A Nashville's injured list since April 12, when he was shut down after sustaining a "boxer's fracture" of his left hand, per Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. After making 22 appearances out of the big-league bullpen between the 2020 and 2021 seasons, Perdomo will have to enjoy a period of sustained success once active at Nashville before he gets another call-up to Milwaukee. Before rejoining Nashville, he'll likely make several appearances in the lower rungs of the minors.

Brewers' Angel Perdomo: Healthy at Triple-A
Rotowire
Perdomo (back) has made two appearances this season for Triple-A Nashville, tossing 1.2 scoreless innings and allowing no hits and three walks while striking out four.
Perdomo finished the 2021 season on the Brewers' 60-day injured list due to a back strain, but he's received a clean bill of health ahead of the 2022 campaign. Despite not winning a spot in Milwaukee's Opening Day bullpen, Perdomo retains a spot on the 40-man roster, so he'll be a candidate for a promotion if the Brewers should require an extra bullpen arm at any point.
