Joyce (shoulder) is expected to begin a throwing progression within one month, Jeff Fletcher of the Orange County Register reports.

Joyce noted Monday that his shoulder is feeling healthy, though he's not yet sure if he'll be a full go by spring training. "It's going great," said Joyce. "I feel like I'm in the best shape of my life. Shoulder feels good. So it's come along better than I could have expected." The team should continue to provide updates on Joyce's status as he makes his way through his throwing progression.

Suarez (shoulder) is expected to be limited to one inning in his next minor-league rehab appearance, Rich Dubroff of BaltimoreBaseball.com reports.

Suarez tossed five scoreless innings and built up to 56 pitches in his third and most recent rehab start Friday with Triple-A Norfolk, but the strong outing apparently hasn't altered the Orioles' plans of bringing the right-hander back from the injured list as a reliever. The upcoming one-inning appearance could be enough to convince the Orioles that he's ready to join the big-league bullpen. Through his first three appearances in the minors between Norfolk and Double-A Chesapeake, Suarez has delivered a 4.50 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 3:5 K:BB in 10 innings.

Athletics manager Mark Kotsay said that Bido will start Tuesday's game against the Tigers, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

Since being recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas on July 10, Bido has worked out of the bullpen, but he should be able to provide the Athletics with a decent amount of length Tuesday after he tossed three innings and 44 pitches in his most recent relief appearance this past Thursday against the Twins. Bido will be taking the hill for his 10th start of the season and will be joining the rotation as a replacement for Jack Perkins (shoulder), who was placed on the injured list last week.

Tigers manager A.J. Hinch said that Hurter was placed on Triple-A Toledo's 7-day injured list Sunday due to lower back soreness, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

Hurter hasn't pitched since being sent down to Triple-A Toledo on Aug. 17, which is now understood to be the result of a back issue. The left-hander has posted a 2.45 ERA and 1.30 WHIP with 62 strikeouts over 58.2 innings in 38 appearances with the Tigers this season. Hurter is still likely to be a part of Detroit's major-league plans in September, so the team will take a cautious approach with him while he manages the back injury.

President of baseball operations Chris Young said Tuesday that the Rangers are optimistic that Gray (shoulder) is dealing with symptoms that are more consistent with the neurologic version of thoracic outlet syndrome rather than the more significant vascular version, which would expedite the right-hander's return to the mound, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports. "The primary symptoms normally are nerve-related," Young said of Gray's condition. "I don't want to put the cart before the horse because every patient is different. But our hope is that whatever it is, it's minor and, after 15 days, he'll be ready [to return from the injured list.] But we still have some diagnostics to get through before we have a clear idea on the prognosis."

The Rangers deactivated Gray on Aug. 17 due to right shoulder nerve irritation, though the team had an underlying concern that the 33-year-old would be lost for the season since the symptoms he was experiencing were consistent with thoracic outlet syndrome, which could necessitate surgery. Gray was scheduled to visit a vascular specialist in Dallas last week, and assuming the doctor's evaluation of the right-hander's condition aligns with the early assessment by the Rangers' medical team, Gray could be cleared to address his shoulder issue with treatments such as Botox injections, which would numb the nerve and enable him to return after missing close to the minimum 15 days. Prior to his recent placement on the IL, Gray had spent the first four months on the shelf while recovering from a fractured wrist. He rejoined the Rangers in late July as a reliever and had struggled to a 7.71 ERA and 1.50 WHIP in 14 innings over six appearances before the shoulder problem cropped up.

Perkins (shoulder) received a subacromial injection Monday and is without a timetable for a return, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

Perkins was placed on the 15-day injured list Friday due to a strained right shoulder, and the club is still uncertain as to how much time he'll miss. Whether he's able to pitch again this season should become more apparent when/if he's cleared to begin a throwing program. Osvaldo Bido is expected to replace Perkins in the rotation in Tuesday's game against the Tigers.

The Mets announced July 29 that Smith (elbow) has been throwing bullpen sessions and could be close to facing live hitters in batting practice, MLB.com reports.

Updates on Smith's rehab from his July 2024 Tommy John surgery with an internal brace have been scarce over the past month, but assuming he's experienced no setbacks during the ramp-up process, he could have an outside shot at returning from the 60-day injured list in September. Before suffering the elbow injury last summer, Smith had been an integral piece in the New York bullpen, posting a 3.06 ERA while collecting two saves and six holds over his 19 appearances in 2024.

Red Sox manager Alex Cora said Monday that Slaten (shoulder) probably won't require another rehab appearance before being activated from the 60-day injured list, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports.

Slaten has made three rehab appearances with Triple-A Worcester, yielding just one unearned run with a 5:1 K:BB over three innings. The reliever has been shelved since late May due to right shoulder inflammation.

The Brewers recalled McGee from Triple-A Nashville on Monday.

McGee holds a 7.36 ERA and 10:5 K:BB over 11 innings during his time in the Brewers bullpen this season. The 6-foot-7 righty will likely be used in low-leverage spots.

The Brewers placed Anderson on the 15-day injured list Monday due to right ankle tendinitis.

He'll be eligible to return Sept. 8, but it's unclear if Anderson will be ready to go by that date. The right-handed reliever has pitched well out of the Brewers bullpen this season, posting a 2.87 ERA and 66:27 K:BB over 62.2 innings.
