Sean Manaea RP | NYM
Mets' Sean Manaea: Effective across five frames
Manaea didn't factor into the decision Monday against the Mariners, allowing one run on one hit and one walk while striking out four over five innings of bulk relief.
Entering after opener Austin Warren worked one inning, Manaea was stellar in stifling the Mariners offense, with a solo homer by Colt Emerson in the third inning accounting for the only damage off the veteran southpaw. Monday marked Manaea's first turn since rejoining the rotation, albeit behind an opener, and it went quite well considering he entered the contest with a 5.56 ERA and 1.62 WHIP across 34 innings. He's tentatively scheduled to take the ball Sunday against the Padres, though it remains to be seen whether he starts outright or works behind an opener once again. It's another plus matchup for Manaea, however, as San Diego is 28th in the league in wOBA (.285) and 27th in wRC+ (83) against left-handed pitching.

Shane Drohan RP | MIL
Brewers' Shane Drohan: Lasts four innings in no-decision
Drohan took a no-decision Monday against the Giants, allowing two runs on four hits and two walks in four innings. He struck out five.
Making only his second start of the year, Drohan threw a season-high 68 pitches Monday in an abbreviated outing. Additionally, the 27-year-old right-hander matched his season-high output in strikeouts. Drohan has an impressive 2.87 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 33:10 K:BB over 31.1 innings, but his streaming appeal could be limited during a matchup in Colorado against the Rockies for his next outing. Beyond that, the expectation is that Brandon Woodruff (shoulder) will take Drohan's place in Milwaukee's rotation once healthy.

Weilnton Herrera RP | COL
Rockies' Welinton Herrera: Moved to 60-day IL
The Rockies transferred Herrera (elbow) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Monday.
Herrera landed on the 15-day IL on Saturday due to left elbow inflammation, but his move to the 60-day IL just two days later suggests that his injury is more severe that the Rockies initially anticipated. With Herrera set to remain on the shelf through at least late July, the Rockies were able to open up a spot on the 40-man roster for right-hander TJ Shook, whose contract was selected from Triple-A Albuquerque.

Zach Agnos RP | COL
Rockies' Zach Agnos: Sent down to Triple-A
The Rockies optioned Agnos to Triple-A Albuquerque on Monday.
The move makes room on the 26-man roster for TJ Shook, who had his contract selected by the Rockies. Agnos has struggled on the mound as of late, having given up 14 earned runs over his last two outings spanning three frames. That has ballooned his numbers to a 7.78 ERA and 1.57 WHIP across 37 innings this season. Agnos will work on his command issues in the minors and could return to the big club should the Rockies need more right-handed depth out of the bullpen.

TJ Shook RP | COL
Rockies' TJ Shook: Called up by Colorado
The Rockies selected Shook's contract from Triple-A Albuquerque on Monday.
Shook has spent the entire 2026 season in Triple-A, where he has a 2.86 ERA, 1.10 WHIP, seven saves and a 29:8 K:BB across 28.1 innings. He'll operate out of the Rockies' bullpen, and his first call to the mound will be his major-league debut. In corresponding moves, Zach Agnos was optioned to Albuquerque and Welinton Herrera (elbow) was transferred to the 60-day injured list.

Joel Peguero RP | SF
Giants' Joel Peguero: Lands on 60-day IL
The Giants placed Peguero on the 60-day injured list Monday due to a left hamstring strain, John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Peguero strained his left hamstring during the eighth inning of Sunday's win over the Rockies. The injury is severe enough for Peguero to go straight onto the 60-day IL, which means the earliest he's eligible to be reinstated is July 31. Wilkin Ramos was called up from Triple-A Sacramento in a corresponding move.

Ryan Gusto SP | MIA
Marlins' Ryan Gusto: Will pitch for Miami on Tuesday
Marlins manager Clayton McCollough confirmed that Gusto will be recalled from Triple-A Jacksonville and pitch in Tuesday's game versus the Nationals, Stephen Strom of Marlins Radio Network reports.
Gusto will likely either make a traditional start or serve in a bulk relief role against the Nationals. The Marlins could need Gusto for multiple starts as they navigate the losses of Eury Perez (hamstring) and Janson Junk (shin). Gusto has collected a 3.63 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 45:16 K:BB in 39.2 innings for Jacksonville this season.

Lyon Richardson SP | CIN
Reds' Lyon Richardson: Drawing short-notice start
The Reds announced that Richardson will serve as their opening pitcher for Monday's game against the Royals.
With Chase Burns (illness) being scratched from his scheduled turn through the rotation on short notice, the Reds will turn to Richardson to make his first big-league start since 2023. Prior to being promoted from Triple-A Louisville on Saturday, Richardson has worked between two and three innings in nine of his 18 appearances in the minors this season, so he should be capable of providing a little more length than the typical opener. That said, Richardson isn't expected to work deep into Monday's contest, so the Reds could count on new call-up Brandon Leibrandt -- who had been starting with Louisville -- to cover multiple innings out of the bullpen.

Wilkin Ramos RP | SF
Giants' Wilkin Ramos: Garners first big-league call-up
The Giants selected Ramos' contract from Triple-A Sacramento on Monday, John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Ramos earned a look from the big club after turning in a 2.00 ERA and 27:7 K:BB over 27 innings with Sacramento. The 25-year-old reliever will be making his major-league debut when/if he enters a game.
-
Andrew Nardi RP | MIA
Marlins' Andrew Nardi: Shifts to 60-day IL
The Marlins transferred Nardi (ribcage) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Monday.
Nardi's move to the 60-day IL is merely procedural, as Marlins manager Clayton McCullough relayed Sunday that the lefty reliever was expected to miss around three months after recently suffering a left ribcage stress reaction. Right-hander Tyler Zuber was called up from Triple-A Jacksonville and will take over Nardi's spot on the 40-man roster.
