  • Tobias Myers RP | NYM

    Brewers' Tobias Myers: Recalled from Triple-A

    The Brewers recalled Myers from Triple-A Nashville on Tuesday.

    Myers is taking the roster spot vacated by Joe Ross (back) and is also a candidate to take Ross' place in the rotation, although it would appear he'll be available in relief for now. The right-hander holds a 5.29 ERA and 17:9 K:BB over 17 innings covering four starts with Milwaukee this season.

  • Dodgers' Elieser Hernandez: Works in relief Monday

    Hernandez gave up two earned runs on two hits over an inning of relief in Monday's 6-4 win over the Diamondbacks.

    After being called up from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Wednesday, Hernandez ended up starting in the Dodgers' series finale in San Francisco, covering six innings while giving up three earned runs in a losing effort. With an off day coming up Thursday, the Dodgers weren't in need of an additional starter this week, so Hernandez shifted to the bullpen. He'll likely work mostly in lower-leverage spots while he remains up with the Dodgers.

  • Padres' Logan Gillaspie: Goes back to El Paso

    Gillaspie returned to Triple-A El Paso after serving as the Padres' 27th man for Monday's doubleheader.

    Gillaspie pitched two scoreless innings during the twin bill but was sent right back to El Paso on Tuesday. In 14 appearances with El Paso, Gillaspie owns a 5.54 ERA and an 11:3 K:BB across 13.0 innings.

  • Austin Pruitt RP | TEX

    Rangers' Austin Pruitt: Shifted to 60-day IL

    The Rangers transferred Pruitt (knee) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Tuesday.

    Pruitt was placed on the 15-day IL on April 24 with an injury to his right meniscus but will need more time for recovery. He'll be unable to return until mid-June at the earliest, though it's unclear how far along he is in the recovery process.

  • Emilio Pagan RP | CIN

    Reds' Emilio Pagan: Playing catch Tuesday

    Pagan (triceps) will attempt to play catch Tuesday after his MRI came back negative, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports.

    Pagan had to be lifted from an appearance against the Dodgers on Sunday, but it looks like he's avoided a serious injury. The Reds should have a better idea as to when he might be available out of the bullpen based on how Tuesday's catch session goes.

  • Clayton Beeter RP | WAS

    Yankees' Clayton Beeter: Lands on injured list

    Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre placed Beeter on its 7-day injured list Tuesday with an unspecified injury, Conor Foley of YES Network reports.

    It's unclear when Beeter suffered the injury, but he last pitched for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on May 15, when he struck out three and walked five over four scoreless innings. The right-hander will be unavailable for at least the next week.

  • Eduard Bazardo RP | SEA

    Mariners' Eduard Bazardo: Records first win Monday

    Bazardo (1-0) picked up the win against the Yankees on Monday, allowing an earned run on a hit and a walk over 1.2 innings.

    Bazardo picked up what was a fairly improbable victory, as he actually allowed the Yankees' lead to expand to 4-1 in the eighth after wiggling out of an inherited bases-loaded jam in the seventh by inducing an inning-ending double play from Giancarlo Stanton. However, the Mariners put together a four-run rally in the ninth, giving them a one-run lead that would stick. Bazardo has now allowed at least one run in three of his first four appearances of the season and has issued a walk in all of them, so he remains a shaky option for the time being despite Monday's success.

  • Tommy Kahnle RP | BOS

    Yankees' Tommy Kahnle: Slated to return Wednesday

    Yankees manager Aaron Boone confirmed Tuesday in an interview with Jomboy Media's "Talkin' Yanks" podcast that Kahnle (shoulder) will be activated from the 15-day injured list Wednesday.

    Boone noted that while he won't use Kahnle on back-to-back days initially, the plan is to deploy the reliever in high-leverage situations right away. Kahnle has been out all season due to a right shoulder injury that dates back to last year. He struck out 11 over five perfect innings on his rehab assignment.

  • Ryder Ryan RP | LAD

    Pirates' Ryder Ryan: Loses roster spot

    The Pirates optioned Ryan to Triple-A Indianapolis on Tuesday.

    Ryan has mostly been effective, holding a 3.46 ERA and 14:7 K:BB over 13 innings. He has been a bit wild lately, though, including in his last appearance when he walked a pair and allowed a run without recording an out. Ji Hwan Bae will absorb his roster spot.

  • Ryan Pressly RP | CHC

    Astros' Ryan Pressly: Returns to mound

    Pressly threw a scoreless inning without allowing a baserunner and striking out one Monday against the Angels.

    Pressly was out for the team's weekend series with finger soreness, but he showed no ill effects in his return. He entered the game in the eighth inning with the Astros down three, presumably because the team wanted to get him some work after the layoff. Pressly has struggled a bit of late, allowing an earned run in half of his last four appearances. He has a 5.19 ERA on the season.
