  • Clay Holmes SP | NYM

    Mets' Clay Holmes: Tuesday's start postponed

    Holmes won't start as scheduled Tuesday versus the Brewers since the game was postponed due to inclement weather.

    The contest will be made up via a split doubleheader Wednesday, with Holmes likely to start one of those games. The veteran right-hander has failed to cover six frames in any of his past three starts, and he has a 3.07 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 10:12 K:BB over 14.2 innings during that stretch.

  • Tanner Gordon SP | COL

    Rockies' Tanner Gordon: Activated, optioned to Triple-A

    The Rockies activated Gordon (oblique) from the 15-day injured list and optioned him to Triple-A Albuquerque on Tuesday, Patrick Lyons of JustBaseball.com reports.

    Gordon is over his oblique strain, but the Rockies have elected to keep him at Albuquerque where he had been on his rehab assignment rather than adding him back to the major-league roster. The righty will be part of Albuquerque's rotation.

  • Freddy Peralta SP | MIL

    Brewers' Freddy Peralta: Game postponed Tuesday

    Peralta won't start as scheduled Tuesday against the Mets since the game was postponed due to inclement weather.

    The game will be made up via a split doubleheader Wednesday, with Peralta poised to take the mound for one of those contests. The right-hander is 3-0 in his past four starts and has a 28.6 ERA, 0.86 WHIP and 23:5 K:BB across 22 innings during that span.

  • Brewers' Brandon Woodruff: Ready for return to big leagues

    Woodruff (elbow) has completed his rehab assignment and is expected to be activated from the injured list to start this weekend against the Marlins, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

    After a tumultuous rehab from shoulder surgery, Woodruff is finally ready to make his return to the big-league mound for Milwaukee. The 32-year-old threw 80 pitches over 3.2 frames during his final rehab outing with Triple-A Nashville on Sunday, so he shouldn't have any major workload limitations in his first start. However, the Brewers are likely to remain cautious with the right-hander in his first MLB start since September of 2023.

  • Kodai Senga SP | NYM

    Mets' Kodai Senga: Throws live batting practice

    Senga (hamstring) threw an up-and-down live batting practice session Sunday, Andrew Tredinnick of The Bergen Record reports.

    This marked Senga's first time facing hitters since he suffered a Grade 1 right hamstring strain nearly three weeks ago. His next step is to throw a bullpen session and go through pitchers' fielding practice Wednesday. If he gets through that without any hiccups, he could be cleared to begin a rehab assignment. The Mets don't expect Senga back until early on in the second half.

  • Max Meyer SP | MIA

    Marlins' Max Meyer: Shifted to 60-day injured list

    The Marlins transferred Meyer (hip) to the 60-day injured list Tuesday.

    The move frees a 40-man roster spot for waiver claim Nick Nastrini. Meyer is out for the rest of the season after undergoing hip surgery last week.

  • Nick Nastrini SP | LAD

    Marlins' Nick Nastrini: Claimed off waivers by Marlins

    The Marlins claimed Nastrini off waivers from the White Sox on Tuesday and optioned him to Triple-A Jacksonville.

    Nastrini has struggled mightily at Triple-A Charlotte this season, posting a 7.51 ERA and 48:39 K:BB over 44.1 innings. He also managed just a 7.07 ERA and 26:36 K:BB in 35.2 frames at the big-league level in 2024. However, Nastrini is still just 25 and was a fairly well-thought-of prospect at one time, so the Marlins felt he was worth a waiver claim.

  • Nationals' Trevor Williams: Tuesday's game postponed

    Williams won't start as scheduled Tuesday versus the Tigers since the game was postponed due to inclement weather.

    It's already been a week since Williams made his previous start June 24, and he'll get another day of rest before likely taking the mound during Wednesday's doubleheader. The 33-year-old is looking for his first win since May 28, and he has a 5.55 ERA, 1.52 WHIP and 18:5 K:BB over 24.1 innings during the winless stretch.

  • Nick Pivetta SP | SD

    Padres' Nick Pivetta: Padres-Phillies game rained out

    Pivetta's next outing will be pushed back after Tuesday's game in Philadelphia was postponed due to inclement weather.

    The game will be made up as part of a split doubleheader Wednesday. Pivetta will presumably draw the start in one of those games, but it's not yet clear whether it will be the matinee or nightcap.

  • Phillies' Cristopher Sanchez: Padres-Phillies game postponed

    Sanchez will have his next start pushed back after Tuesday's game versus the Padres was postponed due to inclement weather.

    The game will be made up as part of a doubleheader Wednesday. Sanchez will start the second game of the twin bill.
