Manager Dave Martinez told Andrew Golden of The Washington Post said after Saturday's victory over the Reds, in which Adon retired the first 17 batters he faced and picked up the win, that the pitcher will remain with the Nationals moving forward.

Adon started Saturday and wound up allowing three earned runs over six innings, but he also gave up just three hits and posted a 7:0 K:BB, and that was good enough to keep him with the big club for the time being. It remains to be seen, though, if the 24-year-old will start next time through the rotation or shift to the bullpen when Trevor Williams returns from the bereavement list.

The Angels selected Rosenberg's contract from Triple-A Salt Lake on Saturday.

Rosenberg was designated for assignment over the winter but now finds himself back on the 40-man roster, replacing right-hander Jacob Webb. While the 27-year-old Rosenberg doesn't have great numbers this season, he provides the Angels with a fresh lefty arm, one capable of covering multiple innings out of the bullpen if necessary.

The Angels designated Webb for assignment Saturday.

Webb made it through Friday's appearance without allowing a run, but he walked three batters, and that was apparently the last straw for Los Angeles. The 29-year-old righty has handed out 20 free passes and served up six homers in 31.2 innings in the majors this season. Kenny Rosenberg was added in a corresponding move.

The Rays claimed Sulser off waivers from the Diamondbacks on Saturday.

After an extended absence due to a shoulder strain, Sulser returned to make a lone appearance out of the Arizona bullpen before being designated for assignment. The Tampa Bay front office has deemed Sulser of a 40-man roster spot despite his struggles in recent seasons. The right-hander pitched to a 2.70 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and eight saves with Baltimore in 2021.

The Mets optioned Garrett to Triple-A Syracuse on Saturday.

After tossing 1.1 scoreless innings Wednesday in his return to the majors, Garrett was rocked for four runs over just two-thirds of an inning Friday. He will make way for a fresh arm on the roster and return to Syracuse, where he has a 5.40 ERA and 1.61 WHIP across six appearances since joining the organization on a waiver claim.

The Mets optioned Curtiss to Triple-A Syracuse on Saturday, aa reports.

Curtiss was recalled earlier in the week and made a couple appearances out of the Mets' bullpen during his latest stint with the big club. He was the first of six relievers used behind David Peterson on Friday -- reinforcements were needed after the group effort. Starter Tylor Megill and righty reliever Jimmy Yacabonis were added in a series of moves.

Bachman (shoulder) was transferred from the 15-day to the 60-day injured list early in the week, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

Bachman was diagnosed with right shoulder inflammation in mid-July and was subsequently placed on the 15-day IL. Per MLB.com, the rookie right-hander had not yet resumed throwing at the time he was moved to the 60-day IL on Aug. 1. Bachman will now be out of action until at least mid-September.

The Mets selected Yacabonis' contract from Triple-A Syracuse on Saturday.

Yacabonis will provide the big club with a fresh arm after the bullpen was taxed for six innings behind David Peterson on Friday. Considering Yacabonis has a 6.24 career ERA and a 9.00 ERA in nine innings in the majors this season, it's unlikely we'll see him in any important spots.

The Brewers recalled Andrews from Triple-A Nashville on Saturday.

Andrews will return for a second stint with the Brewers, though it could be just a one-day stay, as the team will need to open a roster spot for Brandon Woodruff (shoulder) on Sunday. The lefty Andrews made a pair of appearances the last time around, allowing five runs on five hits over 1.2 innings. He's pitched to a 2.63 ERA and 1.29 WHIP in 35 appearances with Nashville this season.

The White Sox selected Ramsey's contract from Triple-A Charlotte on Saturday.

Ramsey has a 5.50 ERA, 1.81 WHIP and 48:27 K:BB across 36 innings at Charlotte this season and will now receive his first taste of the big leagues. The 27-year-old should fill a low-leverage bullpen role while up with the White Sox.
