Cabrera (elbow) is scheduled to make a rehab appearance Wednesday for Triple-A Jacksonville, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

Cabrera will take the mound 10 days after making his last start with the Marlins and subsequently being placed on the 15-day injured list with right elbow tightness. In light of his quick return to game action, Cabrera may need only one rehab start before getting the green light to rejoin the Miami rotation as soon as next week's series in St. Louis. Braxton Garrett or Daniel Castano will lose out on a rotation spot once Cabrera is formally reinstated from the IL.

DeSclafani (ankle) was reinstated from the 60-day injured list and is starting Tuesday's game against Atlanta.

The 32-year-old was previously confirmed as Tuesday's starting pitcher, and he's now officially back on San Francisco's active roster. DeSclafani has been sidelined by ankle inflammation for the past two months, and he figures to face some workload limitations in his first couple outings back from the injury since he covered only 2.2 innings during his final rehab start with Triple-A Sacramento.

The Reds transferred Lodolo (back) from the 10-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Tuesday.

Lodolo hasn't pitched for the Reds since April 24 and wasn't on track to be activated from the 10-day IL in fewer than 60 days, so the transaction won't affect his timeline. Instead, the move is merely procedural, as it clears a spot on the 40-man roster for infielder Donovan Solano (hamstring), who was reinstated from the 60-day IL. Lodolo is set to make his third rehab start at Triple-A Louisville later this week, and if all goes well, he could be activated from the IL and slot back into Cincinnati's rotation at some point during the final few days of June.

Buehler (elbow) was moved to the 60-day injured list Tuesday, Juan Toribio of MLB.com reports.

The move comes as no surprise, as Buehler seems to be tracking toward a return in September at best as he works his way back from both a flexor strain and surgery to remove a bone spur in his right elbow. He isn't expected to pick up a baseball for at least another month. His spot on the 40-man roster will be filled by Trayce Thompson, whose contract was selected Tuesday.

The Pirates plan to call up Eickhoff from Triple-A Indianapolis on Tuesday, Jason Mackey of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

Eickhoff will join the Pirates after producing a 4.84 ERA and 1.08 WHIP with 47 strikeouts over 48.1 innings while appearing in 13 games (six starts) for Indianapolis. He's expected to handle a hybrid role out of the Pirates' bullpen, but if he isn't needed in long relief during Tuesday's game against the Cubs, he could start Wednesday to fill the vacancy in the Pittsburgh rotation.

The Nationals optioned Adon to Triple-A Rochester on Saturday.

Adon was returned to the minors one day after he was summoned from Rochester to make a spot start during the Nationals' doubleheader Friday with the Phillies. Though he tied his season high with six strikeouts in the outing, he gave up four runs on seven hits and a walk and was dealt his league-high 11th loss. Adon will now make regular turns in the Triple-A rotation with the Nationals having settled on Paolo Espino and Jackson Tetreault as the back-end options in its rotation until at least one of Stephen Strasburg (ribs) or Anibal Sanchez (neck) returns from the injured list.

Fried did not factor in the decision against San Francisco on Monday despite allowing only one run on five hits and two walks while striking out eight over seven innings.

Fried was nearly untouchable in the outing, holding the Giants scoreless through seven innings. However, he allowed three straight batters to reach base in the eighth and was tagged with one earned run in the frame. Fried has yielded one or zero runs in four of his past five contests and has gone 3-0 over that stretch. He's 7-2 on the campaign with a 2.77 ERA, 1.05 WHIIP and 83:15 K:BB across 87.2 innings overall.

Webb completed seven innings against Atlanta on Monday, allowing one run on six hits and no walks while striking out seven. He did not factor in the decision.

Webb allowed a second-inning Travis d'Arnaud solo home run but did not surrender any additional runs for the remainder of his outing. He didn't get much run support, however, and was in line for the loss until the Giants scored their only run in the eighth frame. Webb finished with his second straight quality start and has posted a 16:3 K:BB while yielding only one run across 14 innings over that span. He has posted a 3.26 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 75:20 K:BB while recording a 6-2 record over 85.2 innings on the season.

Davies (2-4) allowed four runs on four hits and three walks with three strikeouts in six innings, taking the loss Monday versus the Padres.

Davies was spotted a one-run lead before he took the mound, but he gave it back on a Jake Cronenworth solo home run. The right-hander was also tagged for a two-run single by Ha-Seong Kim in the second and a solo shot from Trent Grisham in the fifth. Davies has alternated dominance with middling performances in his last five outings, going 0-2 in that span. He now has a 3.96 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 60:25 K:BB through 75 innings across 14 starts overall. He's projected for a home start versus the Tigers this weekend.

Darvish (7-3) allowed a run on four hits, two walks and two hit batters with five strikeouts in seven innings, earning the win Monday over the Diamondbacks.

Darvish has been locked in lately, winning three straight starts while allowing only two runs over his last 22 innings in that span. Strangely, he's plunked six batters in those games after hitting only two batters in his first 10 outings. The only run against him Monday was on a Christian Walker sacrifice fly in the first inning. Darvish now has a 3.17 ERA, 0.96 WHIP and 66:17 K:BB across 82.1 innings overall. He'll look to remain dominant in his next start, tentatively set for this weekend at home versus the Phillies.
