Shawn Dubin RP | ARI
Astros' Shawn Dubin: Set for Sunday's start
Dubin will start Sunday's game against the Rangers, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.
Dubin made his big-league debut June 18 and has pitched twice in relief. He's worked multiple innings on both occasions, though he may not pitch long enough to be eligible for a win. Dubin's effectiveness will also be a question, as he has allowed six earned runs across five major-league innings.

Tigers' Brendan White: Starting in bullpen game
White will start on the mound for the Tigers on Saturday against Colorado, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.
Saturday will mark the first start of White's MLB career -- and his first start at any level since 2021 with High-A West Michigan. The 24-year-old righty holds a 5.23 ERA and 1.16 WHIP on the season through 10.1 innings, and he will likely only remain on the mound for an inning or two Saturday.

Jalen Beeks RP | TEX
Rays' Jalen Beeks: Recalled from Triple-A
The Rays recalled Beeks from Triple-A Durham on Saturday, Tricia Whitaker of Bally Sports Sun reports.
With Shane McClanahan (back) landing on the injured list Saturday, Beeks will be called upon to replace McClanahan on the Rays' pitching staff. Beeks has made seven starts this year -- though most of his work has come out of the bullpen -- and holds a 5.82 ERA and 1.44 WHIP through 34 innings.

Justin Bruihl RP | STL
Dodgers' Justin Bruihl: Sent to Triple-A
Bruihl was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Saturday.
Bruihl will be the player to make way as Julio Urias (hamstring) returns from the injured list. His latest stint on the big-league roster lasted just two days, but he got into a game in both of them, scattering three hits across three scoreless innings. Bruihl owns a 3.72 ERA and 15:3 K:BB in 19.1 major-league innings this season.

George Soriano RP | STL
Marlins' George Soriano: Back in big leagues
Soriano was recalled by the Marlins on Saturday, Jordan McPherson of the Miami Herald reports.
Soriano is now on his third stint with the big-league club this season. During his previous time with the team, he recorded a 2.70 ERA in 10 innings despite a modest 6:4 K:BB. Archie Bradley was designated for assignment in a corresponding move.

Clayton Andrews RP | NYY
Brewers' Clayton Andrews: Contract selected by Brewers
Andrews' contract was selected by the Brewers on Saturday.
The 26-year-old lefty will make his big-league debut whenever manager Craig Counsell calls on him for the first time. In 32.2 innings for Triple-A Nashville this season, he owns a 1.65 ERA, with his 31.8 percent strikeout rate offsetting a 12.4 percent walk rate.

J.B. Bukauskas RP | MIL
Brewers' J.B. Bukauskas: Joins active roster
Bukauskas was recalled by the Brewers on Saturday.
Bukauskas made one big-league appearance for the Mariners in early April before being designated for assignment. He was claimed by Milwaukee but promptly placed on the injured list with a cervical strain. He initially remained in the minors once his rehab stint ended but will now get his chance at the highest level, where he'll look to improve on his 7.85 ERA and 1.91 WHIP through 18.1 career innings.

Collin Snider RP | CHC
Royals' Collin Snider: Recalled from Omaha
The Royals recalled Snider from Triple-A Omaha on Saturday.
Snider has spent all season in Omaha after failing to make the Royals' Opening Day roster. He's put up a rather unimpressive 6.35 ERA and 1.78 WHIP through 28.1 innings, but he will be called upon nonetheless to provide depth to Kansas City's bullpen. Brooks Kriske was optioned to Triple-A in a corresponding move.

Daniel Hudson RP | LAD
Dodgers' Daniel Hudson: Tosses scoreless frame in return
Hudson allowed one hit and struck out two batters in a scoreless inning against Kansas City on Friday.
Hudson made his big-league season debut after missing three months while recovering from last June's torn ACL. The right-hander didn't show any rust in his return, throwing 11 of 14 pitches for a strike, fanning two batters and allowing just an infield single. Hudson could see high-leverage work pretty quickly given his success (2.22 ERA, 0.90 WHIP, 30:5 K:BB over 24.1 frames) with the team last season.

Pedro Avila RP | CLE
Padres' Pedro Avila: Returns to majors
The Padres recalled Avila from Triple-A El Paso on Saturday.
Avila didn't make the club out of spring training and hasn't pitched well for El Paso in the minors, posting an 8.49 ERA, 1.90 WHIP and 41:27 K:BB over 46.2 innings. The right-hander has worked mostly in the rotation, starting in 13 of his 16 Triple-A appearances, and he could be up with San Diego as a backup plan to start Sunday in Cincinnati if Yu Darvish hasn't recovered from a bout with the flu, per Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune.
