  • Dylan Lee RP | ATL

    Braves' Dylan Lee: Returns to majors

    Lee was recalled from Triple-A Gwinnett on Friday.

    The 27-year-old was sent to Triple-A last weekend but will quickly rejoin the big-league club with Edgar Santana (ribs) heading to the injured list. Lee has a 1.54 EA, 0.76 WHIP and 54:6 K:BB over 46.2 innings for Gwinnett this season, and he's looking to make his MLB debut.

  • Marlins' Andrew Bellatti: Back in majors

    Bellatti had his contract selected by the Marlins on Friday.

    Bellatti had a two-game stint in the majors in July before being designated for assignment, and he'll rejoin the Marlins for the final three games of the season. The right-hander dominated at Triple-A Jacksonville out of the bullpen with a 1.52 ERA, 0.86 WHIP and 38:10 K:BB over 29.2 innings.

  • Mets' Robert Gsellman: Could return for final series

    Gsellman (lat) joined the Mets' taxi squad ahead of the team's season-ending series in Atlanta and could be reinstated from the 60-day injured list this weekend, Anthony Rieber of Newsday reports.

    After being shut down in late June with a torn right lat, Gsellman was cleared to begin a rehab assignment just over two months later. He's since made six rehab appearances between two affiliates, covering 6.1 innings in total while allowing seven earned runs on 10 hits and three walks. If activated this weekend, Gsellman would likely serve as a low-leverage reliever for New York.

  • Pedro Avila RP | CLE

    Padres' Pedro Avila: Selected, starting Friday

    The Padres selected Avila's contract from Triple-A El Paso on Friday, Daniel Alvarez Montes of El Extrabase reports. He will start Friday's game against the Giants.

    The righty has posted a 3.22 ERA and 1.49 WHIP in 22.1 innings at Triple-A this season. Having thrown five innings last Friday, Avila is well rested and, barring poor performance, should be able to provide some length in his first big-league appearance since 2019.

  • Will Smith RP | KC

    Braves' Will Smith: Fans two, earns save

    Smith tossed a scoreless inning Thursday against Philadelphia to earn the save, fanning two.

    Smith only needed eight pitches to get the job done en route to his 37th save of the season, and he's already surpassed his career-best mark in that category. In fact, he has nailed down each of his last five save chances while tossing a scoreless outing in each of those appearances as well. He ended September on a strong note and posted a 1.50 ERA through 12 innings on the month, as he ends the regular season on a blistering note.

  • Tyler Rogers RP | TOR

    Giants' Tyler Rogers: Multi-inning win

    Rogers (7-1) got the win in Thursday's 5-4 victory over Arizona, allowing two hits with one strikeout across two scoreless innings.

    Rogers was brought in for the eighth inning of a 4-4 game and stayed in for the ninth after retiring the side in order on 11 pitches. The final frame was a bit more eventful but an out on the basepaths helped the 30-year-old navigate a pair of hits. He fell in line for the victory when San Francisco walked it off in the bottom of the frame. It was a nice rebound outing for Rogers, who surrendered two runs in one inning to Arizona on Tuesday, though he probably won't be available Friday after firing 26 pitches.

  • Ryan Weathers SP | NYY

    Padres' Ryan Weathers: Back to Triple-A

    Weathers was optioned to Triple-A El Paso on Thursday.

    Weathers was hit hard Wednesday in a spot start, as he allowed five earned runs on five hits and three walks against the Dodgers. The move will likely end his first regular season at the major-league level, and he posted a 5.32 ERA and 1.38 WHIP with a 72:30 K:BB across 94.2 frames.

  • Pirates' Carmen Mlodzinski: Transferred to Triple-A

    Mlodzinski was transferred from High-A Greensboro to Triple-A Indianapolis on Thursday, Alex Stumpf of DKPittsburghSports.com reports.

    Since the High-A season has wrapped up, Mlodzinski will get the chance to log some extra innings to close out the Triple-A campaign. The right-hander missed time with a shoulder injury earlier in the year but posted a 3.93 ERA and 1.32 WHIP in 50.1 innings across 14 starts in Greensboro this year.

  • Dillon Peters RP | PIT

    Pirates' Dillon Peters: Shifts to 60-day IL

    Peters (back) was transferred to the 60-day injured list Thursday, Mike Persak of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

    Peters was already ruled out for the season after landing on the 10-day IL late last week, and the move to the 60-day IL is just a procedural move to free up a spot on the 40-man roster. The 29-year-old recently resumed throwing and should have plenty of time to build back to full strength for spring training.

  • Luis Garcia RP | MIN

    Cardinals' Luis Garcia: Locks down second save

    Garcia earned a two-out save with a pair of strikeouts Thursday against the Brewers.

    With the Cardinals holding onto a one-run lead in the ninth, Garcia came into the game to replace T.J. McFarland after he issued a one-walk out. The right-hander sent Lorenzo Cain and Kolten Wong down on strikes to finish things off. While Giovanny Gallegos remains the closer in St. Louis, Garcia has provided sufficient bullpen support, pitching to the tune of a 2.78 ERA and 0.96 WHIP with a pair of saves across 33 appearances.
