Mazur has joined the Marlins in Miami and is expected to be recalled from Triple-A Jacksonville to make a start this week during the team's homestand, Craig Mish of the Miami Herald reports.

The Marlins do not have a starting pitcher listed for Wednesday's game against the Phillies, and Mazur would be on six days' rest that day, so he could end up slotting into the rotation for that contest. Mazur has collected a 3.62 ERA and 55:16 K:BB over 59.2 innings this season with Jacksonville. The 24-year-old has a chance to make multiple starts with the big club, although that could depend on when Max Meyer (hip) is ready to return from the injured list.

Double-A Columbus reinstated Hackenberg (undisclosed) from its 7-day injured list Thursday.

Hackenberg has yet to make an appearance since being activated, but he's ostensibly healthy again after missing just over a month of action with an unspecified injury. The 23-year-old righty owns a 7.03 ERA and 1.83 WHIP in 24.1 innings with Columbus on the season.

Fuentes (hand) debuted for Triple-A Gwinnett on Saturday, covering 4.2 innings and striking out six batters while allowing one earned run on three hits and no walks.

Double-A Columbus had placed Fuentes on its 7-day injured list May 27 due to a blister on his pitching hand, but rather than reporting to a lower-level affiliate for a rehab assignment or slotting back into the Double-A rotation, the right-hander was surprisingly moved up to Gwinnett for his first start coming off the injury once he was activated Friday. The 20-year-old turned in an impressive debut for Gwinnett and has continued to elevate his standing as a prospect in 2025 after a strong showing in the Carolina League a season ago.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said that Sheehan (elbow) will be activated from the 60-day injured list to start Wednesday's game against the Padres, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.

As expected, Sheehan has received clearance to make his 2025 debut for the Dodgers this week after completely his recovery from May 2024 Tommy John surgery. The right-hander was cleared to kick off his rehab assignment just over a year after the procedure and was sharp over his four outings in the minors, logging a 3.97 ERA, 0.97 WHIP and 21:1 K:BB in 11.1 innings. In his most recent start for Triple-A Oklahoma City last Thursday, Sheehan tossed 3.1 innings and 63 pitches, so he'll likely be operating with a workload restriction Wednesday. While Sheehan should be in line for multiple turns through the Dodgers' rotation, he'll be at risk of a move to the bullpen or a demotion to Triple-A once the likes of Tyler Glasnow (shoulder), Blake Snell (shoulder), Tony Gonsolin (elbow) and Roki Sasaki (shoulder) return from the IL.

Feltner (back) struck out two over 1.2 scoreless innings in a rehab start with the rookie-level Arizona Complex League Rockies on Monday.

It was Feltner's first outing in seven weeks, as he has been shelved since late April with back spasms. The right-hander will be eligible for activation from the 60-day injured list June 28, but he might need more time than that to rebuild his stamina.

Cease (2-6) took the loss against the Dodgers on Monday, allowing six runs on eight hits and one walk while striking out nine batters over five innings.

Cease began his outing on fire, striking out the first five batters he faced. However, the right-hander gave up a run in the third on a pair of Dodgers doubles. San Diego reclaimed a one-run lead in the top of the fourth, but Cease couldn't hold it long -- he gave up six knocks (five of which were singles) and hit a batter in the fourth frame as Los Angeles emerged with five runs. There was lots to like about Cease's outing -- he notched nine punchouts and 15 whiffs -- but the veteran pitcher continues to be an enigma. He has an excellent 47:12 K:BB over 33.2 innings across his past six starts, but he's also gone 1-4 during that stretch while posting a mediocre 4.81 ERA and 1.31 WHIP.

Palmquist allowed four runs on four hits and three walks while striking out two in 4.2 innings during Monday's 6-4 win over the Nationals.

After a short trip to the minors, Palmquist came back and did not factor in the decision, departing in a one-run game. The 24-year-old has only made it through five innings once this season and has struggled when called upon, pitching to a 7.76 ERA in 26.2 innings over six appearances.

Walker threw a clean sixth inning, fanning one during Monday's 5-2 win over the Marlins.

Since moving to the bullpen for the second time this season, Walker has worked primarily as a middle reliever for the Phillies. The veteran right-hander has tossed a single inning in each of his last five outings, giving up two runs during that span. Through 11 frames (seven appearances) as a reliever this year, Walker owns a strong 3.27 ERA, 0.91 WHIP and 13:3 K:BB with a save plus a hold.

Irvin settled for the no-decision after throwing six innings, allowing three runs on five hits and a walk while striking out five during Monday's 6-4 loss to the Rockies.

Irvin delivered a quality start for the first time in his last four tries, a nice step in the right direction. He had a good three-start stretch prior to his cold streak, allowing just five runs over that time. The 28-year-old will need to cut down on the home runs after allowing another one Monday, now up to 13 total on the year in his 15 starts. The right-hander has a steep challenge ahead of him as he is lined up to face the Dodgers in his next start.

Abel (2-0) picked up the win Monday at Miami, allowing one run on three hits and one walk over five innings. He struck out three.

The rookie right-hander had no issues limiting a subpar Marlins offense, completing his five frames in a tidy 77 pitches, 50 of which were strikes. The only blemish on Abel's line came via a Connor Norby single in the second inning. Through his first 20.1 innings, Abel now sports a 2.21 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 17:4 K:BB. His 1.8 BB/9 in the majors so far is especially impressive given that he has pitched at 4.1 BB/9 in 57 innings at Triple-A this season. The 23-year-old lines up to make his next start at home against the Mets this weekend.
