The Mariners selected Jacques' contract from Triple-A Tacoma on Wednesday.

Jacques has posted a 6.19 ERA and 35:12 K:BB over 32 innings at the Triple-A level this season. The 30-year-old will give manager Dan Wilson another relief option from the left side.

The Mariners are expected to call up Jacques from Triple-A Tacoma, Ari Alexander of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Jacques was acquired via trade from the Dodgers in early June and will be promoted despite a 6.19 ERA this season at the Triple-A level. The lefty reliever holds a 5.46 ERA and 22:11 K:BB over 29.2 frames covering parts of two big-league seasons.

Red Sox manager Alex Cora said that Criswell will likely be recalled from Triple-A Worcester to start Wednesday's game versus the Reds following the completion of a suspended game, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.

Brayan Bello had been scheduled to start the regularly scheduled contest, but he will be handed the ball in the earlier suspended game instead. That leaves Criswell -- who will added as the 27th man -- to start the nightcap, although it's possible an opener is used ahead of him. Criswell would be pitching on three days' rest after going five innings and throwing 87 pitches Saturday for Worcester, so he'd likely have a truncated workload against Cincinnati.

The Tigers recalled Owens from Triple-A Toledo on Wednesday.

He'll take over the 26-man active roster spot of right-hander Sawyer Gipson-Long (neck), who was placed on the 15-day injured list in a corresponding move. Owens made two relief appearances for Detroit earlier this season but has spent most of the 2025 campaign pitching out of the bullpen at Toledo, where he's posted a 5.46 ERA and 1.68 WHIP over 28 innings.

The Tigers placed Gipson-Long on the 15-day injured list Wednesday with a neck strain.

Gipson-Long last pitched Friday, and it's not clear whether he got hurt during that outing or at some point since then. The right-hander will be eligible for activation at the start of the second half, but the Tigers have not revealed a timetable for his return. With Reese Olson (finger) expected back from the injured list later this week, Gipson-Long might not have a rotation spot waiting for him once he's healthy.

The Tigers recalled Horn from Triple-A Toledo to serve as their 27th man for Wednesday's doubleheader with the Nationals.

Horn is expected to be returned to Toledo immediately following the second game of the doubleheader. The lefty reliever previously made his lone relief appearance of the season for Detroit back on April 22 against the Padres, striking out two and allowing one hit over 1.1 scoreless innings.

Eisert will serve as the White Sox's opening pitcher for Wednesday's game against the Dodgers, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

The Dodgers' lineup typically features two left-handed hitters (Shohei Ohtani and Freddie Freeman) in the top four spots in the order, so the White Sox will likely have the left-handed Eisert work the opening frame or two before exiting the contest. Right-hander Sean Burke is slated to work in bulk relief behind Eisert.

Hader picked up the save Tuesday against the Rockies. He allowed one run on two hits while striking out two over one inning.

The southpaw surrendered a solo shot to Hunter Goodman but still closed out his league-leading 24th save of the season Tuesday. Hader has been dominant in 2025, converting every save opportunity and notching six straight saves in his last six outings. On the year, the veteran closer owns a stellar 1.86 ERA and 0.72 WHIP through 38.2 innings across 37 appearances.

Miller earned the save Tuesday against the Rays, allowing a walk and no hits while striking out two in a scoreless frame.

Miller had another dominant outing to pick up his second save in as many days against the Rays. He opened with a 102-mph fastball to punch out Brandon Lowe and ended the game with back-to-back sliders to retire Josh Lowe. Miller has now converted three straight saves and has four consecutive scoreless outings since his last blown save June 19.

Rodriguez (forearm) threw a bullpen session Tuesday, MLB.com reports.

Rodriguez has been on the injured list since June 11 but appears to be nearing a return. The bullpen session reportedly went well, and he is expected to head on a rehab assignment shortly.
