Reed was recalled by the Mets on Saturday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Reed made a pair of relief appearances for the Mets back in May, throwing three scoreless innings. He's up to replace Colin Holderman, who landed on the injured list with a right shoulder impingement.

Holderman was placed on the 15-day injured list Saturday with a right shoulder impingement, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

The move was backdated to Wednesday, leaving Holderman eligible to return June 24, though it's unclear if he'll have a shot at a minimum-length stay. Jake Reed was recalled to take his place in the bullpen.

Junis has been diagnosed with a Grade 2 hamstring strain, Evan Webeck of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Manager Gabe Kapler stated Saturday that it's not a mild strain for Junis, so he could miss well over the minimum 15 days. Sean Hjelle could be an option to make a spot start next week and Alex Cobb (neck) and Anthony DeSclafani (ankle) figure to beat Junis back to the rotation.

Thompson (biceps) threw live batting practice Saturday, Jessica Camerato of MLB.com reports.

He had been throwing bullpen sessions and continues advancing in his throwing progression. Thompson could soon go on a rehab assignment.

Rucker was recalled from Triple-A Iowa on Saturday, Sahadev Sharma of The Athletic reports.

He has a 5.40 ERA and 1.44 WHIP while working as a multi-inning reliever in the majors this season. Rucker should work in low-leverage spots.

Bruihl was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Saturday, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.

Bruihl is coming off his worst outing of the season in which he gave up three earned runs in an inning against the Giants on Friday. He could be back up with the Dodgers later this summer, though he'll likely be limited to serving as bullpen depth.

Junis was placed on the 15-day injured list Saturday with a left hamstring strain, Andrew Baggarly of The Athletic reports.

Per Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle, Junis hasn't gotten an MRI yet but wasn't feeling much better Saturday morning. Slusser also notes that hamstring strains typically require 3-to-6 weeks of recovery and the team will know more after his MRI. The Giants will likely have to dip into the Triple-A rotation for a short-term replacement for Junis.

Hicks (forearm) will throw a bullpen session Sunday, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

Hicks has taken it easy since landing on the injured list in late May, but he is on the verge of throwing off a mound. Hicks' status will be updated again when he approaches the next milestone in his recovery, which could include a rehab assignment.

Lawrence was selected as the 27th man for Saturday's doubleheader against the Padres.

Lawrence has been with Triple-A Albuquerque since being optioned in late May, but he will rejoin the big club for at least one day and two games.

Blach was placed on the 15-day injured list Saturday with a left wrist strain.

It's unclear if the injury contributed to Blach's rough Friday night outing, but one way or another he will miss at least a couple weeks of action. Ryan Feltner was recalled to take Blach's place on the roster.
