Rangers' Gerson Garabito: Recalled from minors
The Rangers recalled Garabito from Triple-A Round Rock on Monday.
Garabito was sent down to Round Rock on Thursday to make room on the 26-man roster for Dane Dunning, but the former is eligible to return to the big club early since Jon Gray (groin) was placed on the 15-day injured list in a corresponding move. Though Garabito will be deployed out of the bullpen in his return to the big club, he could be a candidate to eat innings Friday versus the Red Sox, when Gray's next turn through the rotation is scheduled to come up. Garabito has made eight starts across 11 outings in Triple-A this season, logging a 3.56 ERA and 1.02 WHIP over 48 innings.

Red Sox's Chris Martin: Slated for side session
Martin (elbow) is scheduled to throw a bullpen session Wednesday, Rob Bradford of WEEI.com reports.
Martin has been on the injured list since July 5 with right elbow inflammation, but he's set to advance to the final phase of his recovery program if his upcoming bullpen session goes well. Assuming he escapes the workout no worse for the wear, Martin could begin a rehab assignment as soon as this weekend. Martin owns a 3.42 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 10 holds across 26.1 innings this season.

Royals' John Schreiber: Placed on 15-day IL
The Royals placed Schreiber on the 15-day injured list Monday with a right knee patella tendon injury.
Schreiber suffered the injury during a relief appearance Sunday against the Cubs. The Royals haven't provided a timeline for Schreiber's return from the IL, but he'll be out of commission for at least two weeks. Will Klein was recalled from Triple-A Omaha to replace Schreiber in the bullpen.

Greg Weissert RP | BOS
Red Sox's Greg Weissert: Sent back to minors
The Red Sox optioned Weissert to Triple-A Worcester on Monday, Julian McWilliams of The Boston Globe reports.
Weissert has struggled over the last month, giving up 17 runs across 12.2 innings covering his last 11 relief appearances. He'll be moved off the active roster to clear a spot for Trey Wingenter.

Beau Brieske RP | DET
Tigers' Beau Brieske: Opening Monday's contest
Brieske will serve as the Tigers' opening pitcher for Monday's game against the Guardians, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.
Jack Flaherty had been scheduled to start Monday, but the Tigers opted to scratch him so as not to risk exposing him to an injury that might jeopardize a trade prior to Tuesday's deadline. The Tigers will thus turn to Brieske to make his second start of the season, though like on the previous occasion he started July 14 against the Dodgers, he probably won't be counted on to cover more than an inning or two. Bryan Sammons was called up from Triple-A Toledo on Monday and could operate as a bulk reliever behind Brieske.
