The Marlins optioned Anderson to Triple-A Jacksonville on Tuesday.

Anderson saved the bullpen with 5.1 innings of relief in Monday's loss to the Reds. He wasn't going to be available to pitch for several days, so the Marlins will replace him with a fresh arm.

The Diamondbacks activated Rodriguez (shoulder) from the 60-day injured list Tuesday, Jesse Friedman of GoPHNX.com reports.

Rodriguez has been out since spring training with left shoulder issues but is finally ready to make his season and Diamondbacks debut with a start Tuesday in Cleveland. The left-hander most recently completed a four-inning simulated game last week but did not make any rehab starts, so his workload figures to be muted somewhat initially and rust could also be a factor.

The Giants recalled Birdsong from Triple-A Sacramento on Tuesday, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Birdsong will rejoin the San Francisco rotation Tuesday in Washington and has a shot to cement himself as a starter for the big club for the remainder of the season. The rookie right-hander has impressed in his first six major-league outings, collecting a 2.97 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 38:15 K:BB in 30.1 innings.

Nola (11-5) took the loss against the Dodgers on Monday, allowing four runs on eight hits and no walks while striking out four batters over six innings.

Nola was great outside of the third frame, when he allowed four runs on five hits, including a Teoscar Hernandez two-run homer. That inning was enough to send the right-hander to his first loss since June 29, as Philadelphia's offense put up just three total runs. Nola has given up four runs twice over his past four outings and has a mediocre 4.37 ERA with only one quality start during that span.

Glasnow (9-6) earned the win over Philadelphia on Monday, allowing three runs on five hits and no walks while striking out nine batters over six innings.

Glasnow fell behind 2-0 after two innings but gave up only one run over his remaining four frames. The veteran right-hander finished with his second straight quality start and picked up his first victory since June 22. Glasnow's nine punchouts Monday were his most since that June 22 win, and he now ranks second in the majors with 164 punchouts on the campaign.

Gallen did not factor into the decision in a win over the Guardians on Monday, allowing five runs on eight hits and two walks over seven innings. He struck out four.

Gallen snapped a streak of three straight starts with a win despite his team giving him plenty of run support on Monday. Despite throwing at least seven innings for just the second time this season, he just didn't have his best stuff and was constantly in trouble. The 29-year-old hasn't been as sharp as he would like recently, as he's allowed five or more runs in three of his last six outings.

Munoz (2-6) took the loss Monday against the Reds. He allowed six runs (four earned) on seven hits and three walks over 3.2 innings. He struck out two.

Munoz fell victim to the long ball on Monday, allowing multiple home runs in a start for the seventh time in 13 outings this season. The rookie right-hander was coming off his second win of the season but fell back to earth on Monday. Munoz has now allowed at least four runs in seven starts this season and has seen his ERA climb to 5.68 across 69.2 innings.

Hendricks (3-10) took the loss Monday against Minnesota, allowing two runs on five hits and one walk over six innings. He struck out five.

Despite reaching double-digit losses for the third time in his 11-year career, the veteran right-hander posted his third quality start of the season in this 93-pitch outing. Hendricks handcuffed the Twins lineup and tallied five or more punchouts for the fourth time in 2024. Overall, the 34-year-old has pitched to a 6.60 ERA, 1.45 WHIP and 65:27 K:BB across 91.1 innings. His next time on the mound is scheduled to be in Cleveland.

Hendricks (3-10) allowed two runs on five hits across six innings to take the loss Monday against the Twins. He walked one and struck out five.

Hendricks pitched well for the second straight start, but rookie David Festa and four Minnesota relievers shut the Cubs down in a 3-0 win. For Hendricks, the five strikeouts are his second most in an outing this year, and he's allowed only five runs across 11 innings in his last two appearances. It's a step in the right direction for the veteran, who still has a rough 6.60 ERA overall. Hendricks will look to keep building momentum in his next scheduled start, which is penciled in for next Monday against the Guardians.

Corbin (2-12) took the loss Monday, allowing four runs on seven hits and one walk over six innings against the Giants. He struck out six.

Things went awry for the veteran southpaw out the gate, as he allowed a leadoff 416-foot homer to Tyler Fitzgerald. Corbin allowed another homer of the three-run variety to Matt Chapman in the third inning, cementing his 12th loss, tying him for the most in the league. It's been another rough season for the 35-year-old, as he now sports a 5.88 ERA and 1.52 WHIP across 127 innings on the year. Corbin is currently scheduled to face the Angels at home in his next start this weekend.
