Greene (groin) struck out four batters and gave up on no hits and one walk over two scoreless innings Wednesday in his rehab start in the rookie-level Arizona Complex League.

Greene made his first appearance at any level since June 3, with a right groin strain having kept him out of commission for nearly two months. Due to the length of his absence, Greene will likely need at least two more starts in the minors to get stretched out to a typical starter's workload before the Reds bring him back from the 15-day injured list. He's expected to throw a side session Sunday before moving up to Triple-A Louisville for his next rehab outing Tuesday.

The Mets aren't considering shifting Holmes to the bullpen to limit his innings, Will Sammon and Tim Britton of The Athletic report.

The 32-year-old former closer for the Yankees was converted to a starting role this season and has more than held his own, posting a 3.48 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 86:43 K:BB over 108.2 innings. That's already 45.2 innings more than he pitched during the regular season last year, however, and Holmes' recent performances suggest he could be feeling the strain of that workload, as he has a 5.66 ERA over four July starts. The Mets do have the depth to move the right-hander to the bullpen once the likes of Tylor Megill (elbow) get healthy -- even before factoring top prospects like Nolan McLean, or any trade deadline additions, into the rotation mix -- but the team doesn't have any plans to make that move pre-emptively. Holmes will try to get back on track when he takes the mound Friday in San Francisco.

Darvish (0-3) took the loss Thursday in St. Louis after allowing eight runs on eight hits and two walks over 3.1 innings. He struck out three.

The right-hander didn't surrender any long balls through his first three starts of the year, but St. Louis tagged him for two three-run homers during the second inning Thursday. Darvish threw 49 of 68 pitches for strikes but generated only seven whiffs and got tagged for four extra-base hits in total. The 38-year-old didn't make his season debut until July 7 due to an elbow injury, and he has a rough 9.18 ERA, 1.80 WHIP and 11:9 K:BB over 16.2 innings through his first four starts of 2025.

Gray (10-4) picked up the win Thursday against the Padres despite giving up seven runs (six earned) on 11 hits and no walks over five innings. He struck out five.

The veteran right-hander was able to notch his 10th win of the campaign even though he gave up 11 hits and at least six earned runs for a second straight start. Since throwing a complete-game shutout June 27 in Cleveland, Gray has scuffled to an 8.34 ERA, 1.63 WHIP and 27:2 K:BB in his last five starts. The poor stretch has inflated his ERA to 4.33, though he still has a 1.19 WHIP and 128:19 K:BB across 116.1 innings.

Snell (shoulder) is slated for a minor-league rehab appearance with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Saturday and is aiming to throw about five innings or 75 pitches, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.

Snell has already completed three rehab outings, compiling a 2.00 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 17:1 K:BB over nine innings. He worked up to 58 pitches across four frames in his most recent appearance Sunday, marking his longest rehab start to date. Saturday's outing with OKC could be his final one before he's activated off the injured list, as Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Tuesday, "Once we get through that, there will be a real discussion on if he should join us or do another one."

The Mariners traded Izzi to the Diamondbacks on Thursday alongside Brandyn Garcia in exchange for Josh Naylor, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.

Izzi has spent all of 2025 with the Mariners' High-A affiliate, where he turned in a 5.51 ERA and 1.57 WHIP across 47.1 innings through 12 starts. The 21-year-old will presumably remain at the High-A level with his new organization, and it will likely be a few years before he's ready for the majors.

Luzardo didn't factor into the decision Wednesday against the Red Sox, allowing six runs on two hits and five walks in five innings. He struck out seven.

Luzardo's up-and-down season continued, as he surrendered at least five runs for the fourth time in his last 10 starts. He melted down during a calamitous fifth inning, when Boston drove in six runs on two hits and four walks in the frame. While the hard-throwing left-hander has fanned at least seven on six occasions across his last 10 outings, he's witnessed his ERA balloon from 2.15 on May 25 to 4.58 for the year following Wednesday's clunker. Luzardo has a 8.04 ERA, 1.79 WHIP and 59:24 K:BB over his last 47 innings, and things may not get much easier his next time out against a White Sox team with a .827 OPS versus left-handed pitching since the start of July.

Glasnow didn't factor into the decision Wednesday against the Twins, allowing one run on three hits and one walk in seven innings. He struck out 12.

It was a dominant performance from Glasnow, who recorded a season-high 12 punchouts and induced a whopping 19 whiffs in his longest outing of the year. The star right-hander has yet to give up greater than four hits in any of his first eight appearances in 2025, and he also encouragingly fired his most pitches (106) of the campaign Wednesday in his third start since coming off the injured list. Glasnow boasts a 2.75 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 46:16 K:BB across 36 frames, but he'll be tested at hitter-friendly Great American Ball Park in his next scheduled outing against the Reds.

Pfaadt didn't factor into the decision Wednesday against the Astros, allowing two runs on five hits and two walks over 5.1 innings. He struck out five.

Pfaadt was dominant early, allowing just three hits through his first five scoreless innings. However, he'd falter in the sixth, allowing two runs when Christian Walker and Yainer Diaz led off the frame with back-to-back doubles. Pfaadt had been on a roll coming into Wednesday's outing -- he'd won his previous two starts while giving up just two runs over 15 innings. Overall, the 26-year-old right-hander sports a 4.76 ERA with a 1.26 WHIP and 95:25 K:BB across 21 starts (111.2 innings). Pfaadt's currently scheduled to face the Tigers on the road his next time out.

Rea (8-4) took the loss Wednesday, surrendering six runs (five earned) on six hits -- including three home runs -- over five innings as the Cubs fell 8-4 to the Royals. He struck out three without walking a batter.

The veteran righty got taken deep by Vinnie Pasquantino twice and Salvador Perez once, marking the third time in his last 10 outings that Rea has served up at least three homers. He's coughed up 14 long balls in total over that span, posting a 4.72 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 33:13 K:BB in 55.1 innings. With the Cubs potentially looking to add reinforcements for their rotation at the trade deadline, Rea could conceivably lose his spot, but he currently lines up to make his next start on the road early next week in Milwaukee.
