The Dodgers recalled Sauer from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Tuesday.

Sauer is expected to take on the bulk of the workload in Tuesday's game in San Diego, whether it be as a traditional starter or bulk reliever. The right-hander has collected a 3.05 ERA and 13:3 K:BB over 20.2 frames at the big-league level in 2025.

The Dodgers designated Urena for assignment Tuesday.

Urena allowed one run over three innings covering two appearances during his brief time in a Dodgers uniform. He's clearing out to make room on the roster for Matt Sauer, who has been recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City and is expected to start Tuesday's contest in San Diego.

Lange (lat) will throw a live batting practice session Wednesday, Chris McCosky of The Detroit News reports.

Lange appears to be nearing a rehab assignment as he recovers from right lat surgery and more recently upper-arm inflammation. The reliever has not pitched in a game in nearly a year, so his rehab assignment will likely be a lengthy one.

Hodge (hip) is scheduled to face Triple-A Iowa hitters in a live batting practice session Tuesday, MLB.com reports.

The Cubs are on the road in Philadelphia, so Hodge will link up with the team's top minor-league affiliate to face hitters. He was given the green light to advance to the next phase of his recovery from a left hip impingement after he completed a 30-pitch bullpen session Saturday. After Tuesday's workout, Hodge could stick around with Iowa to make a rehab appearance or two before returning from the 15-day injured list.

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

McGee tossed a scoreless inning last month in his lone appearance with the Brewers this season. He will provide manager Pat Murphy with a fresh bullpen arm.

The Brewers optioned Anderson to Triple-A Nashville on Tuesday.

Anderson threw 42 pitches and was tagged for three runs over 1.1 innings in Monday's loss to Atlanta. He's being replaced on the roster and in the bullpen by Easton McGee, who was recalled from Triple-A.

The Marlins announced Monday that Nardi (back) is continuing to receive treatment and taking part in regular rehab, but he's without a timeline to make his 2025 debut, MLB.com reports.

While Nardi seems to have resumed taking part in baseball activities since receiving an injection April 30 to relieve pain in his lower back, the Marlins haven't provided a concrete update regarding where he stands in his throwing program. Since he's been on the injured list all season, Nardi will likely require an extended minor-league rehab assignment before the Marlins bring him back from the 60-day injured list.

The Marlins recalled Bachar from Triple-A Jacksonville on Tuesday.

Bachar was sent down nearly three weeks ago after allowing 11 runs in 10.2 relief innings in May. He'll get another opportunity after permitting one run with a 6:1 K:BB over three innings with Jacksonville.

The White Sox designated Wilson for assignment Tuesday.

The transaction frees spots on the 26-man active roster and 40-man roster for right-hander Grant Taylor, who was promoted from Double-A Birmingham. Wilson has collected an uninspiring 6.95 ERA and 27:19 K:BB over five starts and 14 relief appearances this season with the Pale Hose.

The White Sox selected Taylor's contract from Double-A Birmingham on Tuesday.

The move was first reported Monday and has now been made official. Taylor had spun 9.1 scoreless innings with an 18:1 K:BB over his last nine appearances after being shifted to the bullpen at Birmingham. The 23-year-old has the look of a future closer, and the ninth inning for the White Sox is wide open. However, Taylor is likely to be eased into high-leverage spots.
