Fried (elbow) is expected to be reinstated from the 15-day injured list and start Game 2 of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Pirates, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.

Fried was set to make a second rehab start Wednesday, and he was expected to throw 60 pitches in the outing according to manager Aaron Boone. The southpaw will instead return to a major-league mound for the first time since suffering a left elbow bone bruise in mid-May. Fried has posted an impressive 3.21 ERA and 1.01 WHIP with 50 strikeouts over 61.2 innings in 10 starts this season, so he'll be a welcomed addition to fantasy rotations, though it may take a few outings for him to work up to his regular workload.

The Rangers selected Gonzales' contract from Triple-A Round Rock on Tuesday, Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com reports.

Gonzales joined the Rangers on a minor-league pact in late June and has since allowed 16 earned runs in just 16.2 innings over three starts. Despite his poor performance, the 34-year-old will return to the majors for the first time in two seasons and join the Rangers' bullpen as a long reliever, replacing the injured Jose Corniell (elbow).

Interim Red Sox manager Chad Tracy said that Suarez (groin) is in the mix to return from the 15-day injured list to start Game 2 of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Orioles, Gabrielle Starr of the Boston Herald reports.

The left-hander was scheduled to come off the injured list to start Tuesday's contest, but Eduardo Rivera was instead named the starter for that game before it was ultimately postponed due to inclement weather. Suarez is apparently experiencing some soreness after recently testing out his groin and is also feeling a bit under the weather, which prompted Boston to move back his return. Even if Suarez doesn't end up taking the mound in Wednesday's nightcap, he could still be back in the Red Sox's rotation later this week.

Bradish won't start Tuesday against the Red Sox since the game was postponed due to inclement weather, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.

The game will be made up via a doubleheader Wednesday, during which Bradish will presumably pitch one of those contests. The right-hander, who has a 3.61 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 106:50 K:BB across 107.1 innings through 19 starts this season, is fresh off signing a five-year, $90 million extension with the Orioles on Saturday.

Warren won't pitch as scheduled Tuesday against the Pirates since the game was postponed due to a forecast of inclement weather, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.

The right-hander was scheduled to make his first start of the second half Tuesday but will instead get some extra rest. The game is being made up via a doubleheader Wednesday, with Warren likely to pitch in one of those contests. He headed into the All-Star break with a 4.03 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and 96:33 K:BB across 98.1 innings (19 starts).

Delzine was promoted from the Florida Complex League to Single-A Salem on Tuesday.

The FCL season hasn't wrapped up yet, but the Red Sox felt it was time to challenge their top teenage pitching prospect with his first assignment to full-season ball. Delzine, a 6-foot-5 Venezuelan righty, logged a 2.72 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 43:18 K:BB in 39.2 innings in rookie ball. The dynasty buzz will grow quite loud if he translates that success against Single-A hitters.

The Red Sox want to give Suarez (groin), who will not start Tuesday against the Orioles as previously scheduled, at least one more day before reinstating him from the injured list after he pushed himself pretty hard over the past few days, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.

Eduardo Rivera is instead taking the mound Tuesday for Boston. Suarez has been on the shelf since sustaining the left groin strain July 5 in Anaheim, and he was set to rejoin the big-league rotation without a rehab assignment. The left-hander still seems like an option to pitch in Wednesday's series finale, though his status is a bit up in the air until the team provides a more concrete update.

Suarez (groin) won't start Tuesday against the Orioles as previously scheduled, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports.

The left-hander was poised to come off the injured list to start Tuesday versus Baltimore after a two-week absence due to a groin strain, but there's now been a change of plan. It's unclear whether or not Suarez has suffered a setback, though it's possible Tuesday's rainy weather forecast is prompting Boston to exercise caution with his return, per Ari Alexander of 7 News Boston. The Red Sox should provide an update in the near future. Eduardo Rivera will now take the mound Tuesday versus the Orioles.

Ellwanger had Tommy John surgery May 24, Ian Cundall of Baseball America reports.

The 6-foot-4 righty suffered a right elbow sprain in April and it led to the worst-case scenario, which should sideline Ellwanger until at least the second half of 2027. The 88th overall pick in 2025 out of Dallas Baptist, Ellwanger was given an easy assignment to Single-A Fort Myers, but he did not allow a run while striking out 15 in 11.2. innings across his first three pro starts before suffering the injury.

Soto's (wrist) rehab assignment was paused in mid-June after he experienced forearm soreness during a bullpen session, Ian Cundall of Baseball America reports.

Soto's wrist soreness cropped up when he was rehabbing August 2025 surgery to remove a partially detached bone spur in his elbow, and he missed the first two months of 2026 due to the wrist issue, only to have a more serious injury pop up while on his rehab assignment. Soto is a talented young pitcher and won't turn 21 until the end of August, but he has thrown only 15.2 innings since the start of the 2025 campaign after logging 74 innings in his debut season at Single-A in 2024.
