Barnes allowed one earned run on two hits while striking out two to earn the save Tuesday against Atlanta.

Barnes bounced back after blowing an opportunity in his previous outing to record his 15th save of the season. He did struggle a bit, however, as he allowed the leadoff hitter to reach base and ultimately come around to score. Barnes has now allowed one earned run in four of his last seven appearances, which has resulted in two blown saves. Even so, it appears he's still locked into the closer role. Barnes has earned some leeway by maintaining a 3.07 ERA with a stellar 52:7 K:BB across 29.1 innings on the campaign.

Davidson (forearm) will undergo an MRI and will be placed on the 10-day injured list Wednesday, 680 The Fan Atlanta reports.

Davidson's initial test results following his removal from Tuesday's start against the Red Sox were apparently encouraging, but that wasn't enough to prevent a trip to the IL. The left-hander will be eligible to be activated June 26, but it's too early to know how long he'll be sidelined. He surrendered five runs on five hits and a walk while striking out four over 2.1 innings before departing Tuesday.

Hendriks allowed two hits and struck out two in a scoreless ninth inning to earn the save Tuesday against the Rays.

Hendriks was tasked with protecting a 3-0 lead. He allowed the tying run to come the plate after allowing back-to-back singles, but he ultimately struck out the final two batters he faced to earn his 18th save. In addition, Hendriks has put together stellar ratios, maintaining a 2.15 ERA while recording 46 strikeouts across 29.1 innings.

Edwards was removed from Tuesday's loss to the Yankees with left abdominal discomfort, Keegan Matheson of MLB.com reports.

The right-hander recorded an out and exited mid-at-bat after throwing three straight balls to his second batter faced. Edwards had his contract selected by the Blue Jays on May 30 and has struggled since the promotion with seven runs allowed over 5.1 frames before Tuesday's contest.

White was recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Tuesday, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.

White was demoted over the weekend but will quickly rejoin the big-league club with Cody Bellinger (hamstring) landing on the injured list. The right-hander has a 3.29 ERA, 1.54 WHIP and 13:8 K:BB across 13.2 innings this season.

Clarke (shoulder) was placed on the 10-day injured list Tuesday with a strained right teres major muscle.

The 28-year-old allowed a hit and recorded a strikeout over a scoreless frame Monday against the Giants, and he apparently suffered a shoulder injury during the contest. Clarke will be eligible to be activated June 25, though it's unclear whether he's expected to face a longer absence.

Davidson was removed from Tuesday's start against the Red Sox after 2.1 innings due to left forearm tightness.

The young southpaw surrendered five runs on five hits with four strikeouts and a walk before being pulled during the third inning, when he appeared to show a drop in velocity, per Mark Bowman of MLB.com. Davidson's status for his next turn through the rotation is now in question, as the severity of the injury is unclear at this time.

Manager Dave Roberts said Jansen is likely unavailable for Tuesday's game against the Phillies after the right-hander recorded one-inning saves Sunday and Monday, Eric Stephen of SBNation.com reports.

Roberts didn't definitively say that the right-hander wouldn't pitch Tuesday, but it sounds like the skipper will do everything he can to stay away from using the veteran closer for a third consecutive day. With Blake Treinen also having pitched in the last two games, Joe Kelly could receive a save chance should the opportunity arise.

Bolanos was placed on the 10-day injured list with a right flexor strain Tuesday, retroactive to June 12.

Bolanos was called up by the Royals on June 3 and wound up making three relief appearances, allowing just one earned run on four hits across 6.1 innings. Unfortunately, he'll now be on the shelf until at least June 23, with a longer stay on the IL a possibility.

Alzolay (finger) threw a bullpen Tuesday and may be ready for activation after one more session, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Pitching coach Tommy Hottovy said he wants to see how Alzolay's recovering finger blister reacts under "game-mode" conditions. While Alzolay is eligible for activation from the injured list Friday, Zach Davies is scheduled to start that day and Jake Arrieta the next, so Sunday seems to be a likely target for his return.
