Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Buehler (elbow) will continue his rehab assignment Wednesday with Triple-A Oklahoma City, Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times reports.

The right-hander covered just 2.2 frames in his previous rehab outing with two runs allowed on four hits and four walks, so he'll require at least one more outing in the minors. Buehler may need to showcase improved command if Wednesday's outing is to be his last of the rehab assignment.

Montas (forearm) said after Sunday's game against the Angels that he's likely to miss his next start due to soreness and swelling, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

Montas recorded just two outs before a comebacker forced him from Sunday's game, and it appears the forearm bruise will cost him at least one turn through the rotation. The right-hander avoided a fracture but may still require a trip to the injured list, depending how quickly the swelling and soreness subsides.

Montas had X-rays come back negative and was diagnosed with a right forearm bruise after exiting Sunday's start against the Angels.

The right-hander was struck by a comebacker during the opening frame but appears to have avoided a serious injury. Montas should be considered day-to-day, and it remains to be seen if he'll be ready for his next turn through the rotation.

Kelly will return to Phoenix to be evaluated after he was scratched ahead of his scheduled start Sunday in San Francisco due to a right shoulder injury, Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic reports.

Kelly had an MRI on Saturday, but the Diamondbacks haven't disclosed the results. While the fact that Kelly is being sent in for further evaluation wouldn't seem to be a promising sign, manager Torey Lovullo hopes a trip to the injured list won't be necessary for the right-hander. Slade Cecconi was called up from Triple-A Reno to start in the series finale against the Giants.

Montas was removed from Sudnay's game against the Angels after being hit in the right arm by a comebacker, C. Trent Rosecrans of The Athletic reports.

Montas was struck by a line drive off the bat of Taylor Ward during the first inning and was unable to remain in the contest. The specifics of the injury remain unclear, but the right-hander could be headed for medical imaging.

The Diamondbacks recalled Cecconi from Triple-A Reno on Sunday, and he will start against the Giants.

Cecconi was unable to make the big-league roster out of spring training. He had a good outing in his last start with Reno on April 16, allowing one run on five hits and one walk while striking out six batters over six frames. Cecconi appeared in seven games for the Diamondbacks last season and posted a 4.33 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 20:4 K:BB over 27 innings. To make room for Cecconi, the Diamondbacks optioned right-hander Justin Martinez to Triple-A Reno. Cecconi will be thrown right into the fire, as he will start Sunday for Merrill Kelly (undisclosed).

Kelly (undisclosed) was scratched from Sunday's game against the Giants, Nick Piecoro of The Arizona Republic reports.

Kelly was set to make his fifth start of the season Sunday. It's unclear why Kelly was scratched, though Piecoro speculates that its due to an injury. Kelly has gone 2-0 over his first four starts of the year, posting a 2.19 ERA, 0.93 WHIP and 21:6 K:BB over 24.2 innings. In Kelly's place, Slade Cecconi, who was called up from Triple-A Reno on Sunday, will get the start.

The Brewers placed Hall on the 15-day injured list Sunday due to a left knee sprain.

Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel notes that Hall sustained the injury on a bunt play in the second inning of Saturday's game against the Cardinals. Hall has failed to last four innings in each of his last two appearances, and he has a 7.71 ERA, 2.27 WHIP and 13:10 K:BB over 16.1 innings this season. With Hall on the IL, the Brewers recalled southpaw Jared Koenig from Triple-A Nashville in a corresponding move. Bryse Wilson, who threw 3.2 innings as the Brewers' opening pitcher against the Padres on April 17, is a candidate to replace Hall in the starting rotation, per Adam McCalvy of MLB.com.

The Rockies added Davis to the active roster to be the 27th man for Sunday's doubleheader against the Mariners.

Davis was called up for Saturday's game, though he did not make an appearance and was optioned to Triple-A Albuquerque after the contest. He'll stick around with the Rockies for Sunday's doubleheader and be available should the team need an additional arm. In four starts with Triple-A Albuquerque this season, Davis has an 0-2 record with a 7.13 ERA, 1.92 WHIP and 21:10 K:BB over 17.2 innings.

Hudson (0-4) took the loss against Seattle on Saturday, allowing four runs on seven hits and five walks over four innings while striking out one.

Hudson left a sinker over the plate on the first pitch in the top of the second and watched as Cal Raleigh sent it into the stands in left field. The right-hander would then allow a run in each of the next three frames, with the last one coming home after he was relieved by Victor Vodnik in the fifth. Hudson has allowed at least three runs in three of his four starts to open the season and now carries a dismal 12:11 K:BB on the campaign after issuing a season-high five walks in Saturday's loss.
