Clase (1-2) allowed an unearned run on one hit and a walk in Monday's win over the White Sox. He pitched one inning and picked up a win despite blowing a save chance.

Clase coughed up a game-tying run in the bottom of the 10th inning but was credited with a win after Josh Naylor belted a go-ahead shot in the 11th. The 24-year-old righty lowered his ERA to 2.92 through 12.2 frames. Clase had tossed 6.2 scoreless innings since blowing his last save on April 23.

Stephan struck out two batters in a perfect inning and earned a save over the White Sox on Monday.

Stephan worked a clean 11th inning to convert his first save chance of the year. The 26-year-old is sporting an impressive 15:3 K:BB and 1.35 ERA through 13.1 innings. He'll maintain a late-inning role but won't see many save chances behind Emmanuel Clase.

Hendriks allowed two runs on two hits in Monday's loss to the Guardians. He recorded one out and was charged with a blown save.

The White Sox entered the ninth inning with an 8-2 lead but Hendriks was called in after Tanner Banks struggled. The veteran righty proceeded to serve up a grand slam to Josh Naylor to send the game to extra innings. His ERA jumped to 4.61 through 13.2 innings after blowing a save for the first time since his season debut.

Lopez left Monday night's game against the Gurdians with lower-back tightness, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

Lopez will be considered day-to-day until further notice. He gave up a hit in a scoreless inning prior to departing.

Jimenez struck out three batters and issued two walks in a scoreless ninth inning Monday. He earned a save against the Tigers.

Jimenez walked the leadoff batter and issued another free pass with two outs but struck out the other three batters he faced in the scoreless frame. The 28-year-old has now converted all five save chances this year and he's yet to allow an earned run. He's registered a 14:5 K:BB through 12 innings.

Chapman picked up the save Monday against the Rangers after allowing one hit in a scoreless inning.

Chapman was able to hold off the Rangers in the ninth after New York took a 1-0 lead in the eighth, despite surrendering a two-out single to left. The flamethrower has yet to allow a run on the season and has given up just three hits and seven walks through 11 appearances (10.1 innings).

Hernandez (0-2) was saddled with the loss after surrendering six runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out two across 4.2 innings Monday against the Orioles.

Hernandez cruised through four scoreless frames before running into trouble, allowing all six of his runs in the bottom of the fifth inning. Monday's outing was his worst of the young season for the right-hander, who has allowed three or more runs in each of his first five starts. Hernandez will carry a 7.15 ERA and 1.90 WHIP into his next scheduled start, which tentatively lines up for Sunday in Colorado.

Bummer (knee) believes he can return from the injured list in the minimum 15 days, James Fegan of The Athletic reports.

Bummer will be eligible to return May 22 and seemingly has a chance to do so, but it's unclear whether his optimism is shared by the White Sox organization. He wasn't at his best prior to the injury, as he struggled to a 4.91 ERA and 1.73 WHIP in 11 innings.

Martinez will make his MLB debut Tuesday, as he's scheduled to be called up from Triple-A Las Vegas to start the nightcap of a doubleheader against Detroit, Matt Kawahara of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Martinez came over from the Padres in early April as part of the return for Sean Manaea. He's struggled in five starts for Las Vegas this season, posting a 7.45 ERA and a 10.3 percent walk rate, though he's at least struck out 28.7 percent of opposing batters.

The Rays recalled Faucher from Triple-A Durham on Monday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Faucher will head to the big leagues for the first time in his career after the Rays cleared a spot for him by optioning Ralph Garza to Durham. The 26-year-old right-hander will give Tampa Bay another multi-inning option out of the bullpen after he recorded more than three outs in all but three of his 11 outings in the minors this season. During his time at Durham, he accrued a 5.02 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 15:6 K:BB in 14.1 innings.
