Duarte was recalled from Triple-A Louisville on Monday, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

He was replaced on the roster by Levi Stoudt earlier this month and now the two pitchers are trading spots again. Duarte holds a 2.77 ERA but a 10:9 K:BB over 13 frames with the big club this season.

Helsley (forearm) was transferred to the 60-day injured list Monday.

Helsley has been out since June 12 after being placed on the 15-day injured list, so although he is now on the 60-day IL, the right-hander remains eligible to return Aug. 12. The transaction made room for Andrew Suarez on the 40-man roster after Suarez had his contract selected from Triple-A Memphis on Monday.

Thompson was optioned to Triple-A Memphis on Monday.

Thompson will return to Memphis after being called up July 5, and he allowed three runs on six hits and two walks while striking out three batters over 4.1 innings while in the big leagues. The transaction opened a roster spot for Adam Wainwright (shoulder) for his return from the injured list.

Suarez had his contract selected from Triple-A Memphis by the Cardinals on Monday.

Suarez will get his first shot in the big leagues since 2020 after being called up Monday. The left-hander has produced a 4.08 ERA and 1.48 WHIP with 69 strikeouts over 64 innings in 28 appearances, including three starts, with Memphis this season. In a corresponding move to make room on the 40-man roster, Ryan Helsley (forearm) was moved to the 60-day injured list.

Wilson (elbow) rejoined the Brewers on Monday but not been activated from the 60-day injured list yet, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Wilson cleared his final rehab hurdle in making back-to-back appearances with Triple-A Nashville on Saturday and Sunday. He will rest for a day or two before rejoining Milwaukee's bullpen. Wilson is coming back from last June's Tommy John surgery.

Thielbar (oblique) will start a rehab assignment with Triple-A St. Paul on Tuesday, Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com reports.

Thielbar has been limited to just one appearance since May 3 due to a pair of injured list stints because of a strained right oblique. He's finally game ready again and should be ready to rejoin the Twins' bullpen following a handful of rehab outings.

The Guardians optioned Herrin to Triple-A Columbus on Monday, Joe Noga of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Cleveland selected the contract of lefty Daniel Norris from Triple-A to replace Herrin on the 26-man active roster and in the bullpen. Herrin was the pitcher of record in Sunday's loss to the Phillies after giving up three runs (two earned) on one hit and one walk. He needed 22 pitches to record his three outs and also threw 22 pitches between appearances Thursday and Friday, so he was unlikely to be available out of the bullpen for at least a couple of days.

The Guardians selected Norris' contract from Triple-A Columbus ahead of Monday's game against the Royals, Joe Noga of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Norris will be up with the Guardians for the second time this season after he previously spent four days with the club before being designated for assignment June 21. Since clearing waivers and reporting back to Triple-A, Norris has posted a 2.35 ERA, 0.85 WHIP and 16:2 K:BB in 15.1 innings. Though he's been deployed as a swingman at Triple-A this season, Norris is likely to serve exclusively as a multi-inning bullpen arm while he's in the majors.

Dominguez (oblique) is set to be activated from the 15-day injured list Tuesday, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.

Dominguez has been sidelined since mid-June with a left oblique strain, but he's impressed in two rehab appearances at Triple-A Lehigh Valley with five strikeouts over two scoreless frames. He'll provide the Phillies with a late-inning relief option.

Jimenez (shoulder) allowed an earned run on three hits and a walk over 1.1 innings in Triple-A Las Vegas' win over Salt Lake on Sunday. He struck out one.

Jimenez took the hill for his second rehab appearance and worked up to 30 pitches, nearly doubling his volume from his 16-pitch outing Thursday. As in that appearance, Jimenez surrendered an earned run, but the fact he was able to up his workload with just two days' rest is encouraging. The right-hander likely still has plenty of rust to knock off due to his long layoff, so he appears slated for additional appearances with the Aviators in coming days.
