Tiedemann (elbow/neck) gave up one hit and struck out two over a scoreless inning in a rehab appearance for Single-A Dunedin on Sunday.

The 23-year-old southpaw hadn't seen game action since June 20 due to neck discomfort that required injections to alleviate, but Tiedemann was back on a mound Sunday and flashing impressive raw stuff once again. According to Keegan Matheson of MLB.com, Tiedemann's fastball averaged 96.4 mph and topped out at 97.7 mph. He's still in the process of getting ramped up following July 2024 Tommy John surgery, and the Blue Jays plan to have him work out of the bullpen for the rest of the season before re-evaluating his future role in 2027. He'll be moved up to Triple-A Buffalo once his rehab stint is over, and if he avoids any further setbacks, he could make his big-league debut in September.

High-A Greensboro placed Hernandez on its 7-day injured list Saturday due a left oblique discomfort, Jonathan Mayo of MLB.com reports.

Hernandez's most recent appearance with Greensboro came Friday, when he logged three shutout innings with five strikeouts. The Pirates haven't provided an update on the severity of the young right-hander's injury, making it difficult to project whether he'll pitch again in 2026. Hernandez has put together a dominant first season in the professional ranks, collecting a 2.43 ERA and 118:31 K:BB over 74 innings between Greensboro and Single-A Bradenton.

Triple-A Gwinnett placed Waldrep (arm) on the 7-day injured list Tuesday.

Waldrep's move to the IL came just two days after he noticed a dip in velocity during a three-inning start versus Toledo. Specifics regarding Waldrep's injury remain vague, with Atlanta manager Walt Weiss merely noting that the right-hander experienced some arm discomfort during his most recent outing at Triple-A. Waldrep had coughed up 10 earned runs on 13 hits and 10 walks over 10.2 innings in three appearances (two starts) for Atlanta before he was demoted to Triple-A on July 10.

Snell (elbow) will be re-evaluated after Wednesday's rehab start with Triple-A Oklahoma City to determine whether he's ready to rejoin the Dodgers' rotation next week, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

Snell is slated for four innings and/or 60 pitches Wednesday in that will be his third rehab start. He's covered a total of four frames while permitted one run and a 7:1 K:BB in his first two rehab outings. Snell has been sidelined since late May following a NanoScope procedure on his left elbow, but he's almost ready to rejoin the rotation for the defending champs.

Warren (7-5) took the loss Sunday, allowing six runs on six hits and two walks over three-plus innings against the Phillies. He struck out five.

Warren endured his shortest start of the year, allowing six runs to match a season high. Sunday marked the right-hander's first start after the All-Star break, as he was used in relief in the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader. The 27-year-old hasn't earned a win since May 31 and will take a 4.41 ERA, 1.41 WHIP and 102:36 K:BB across 102 innings (21 appearances) into his next start, tentatively slated for Friday on the road against the Cubs.

Sanchez (13-4) earned the win Sunday, allowing three runs on six hits and three walks over six innings against the Yankees. He struck out six.

Sanchez surrendered three runs in the fifth inning but received ample run support to pick up his 13th win. The southpaw has put together a lackluster July, posting a 6.65 ERA and 1.85 WHIP across 21.2 innings (four starts), though much of the damage came during a July 6 outing against the Royals in which he surrendered nine runs. Overall, the 29-year-old has been stellar this season, pitching to a 2.73 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 157:28 K:BB over 138.2 innings (22 starts). Sanchez is tentatively slated to make his next start Saturday versus the Orioles.

Whisenhunt (2-1) took the loss Sunday, allowing four runs on five hits and two walks over five innings against the Angels. He struck out seven.

Whisenhunt showed off his swing-and-miss stuff by registering 18 whiffs and seven strikeouts, but the southpaw was tagged for a pair of homers in the fourth inning that soured the outing and saddled him with the loss. The 25-year-old has spent most of the season with Triple-A Sacramento, as Sunday marked his third big-league start of the season, and he owns a 4.60 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and 13:8 K:BB across 15.2 innings with San Francisco. With Trevor McDonald (elbow) likely to miss an extended period of time, Whisenhunt figures to stick around in the rotation for the time being, with his next start tentatively scheduled for Friday at San Diego.

Soriano (9-6) earned the win Sunday, allowing one unearned run on three hits and three walks over five innings in a 4-3 win over San Francisco. He struck out five.

Soriano was lifted after five frames at 85 pitches (47 strikes), but he was able to keep the San Francisco offense quiet en route to picking up his first win since June 13. After a disastrous stretch on the mound during May and June, the right-hander has found his footing a bit in July, posting a 2.74 ERA and 0.96 WHIP across 23 innings (four starts), though his strikeout production has dipped a bit this month. Overall, Soriano owns a 3.29 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 127:57 K:BB across 123 innings (22 starts) and is tentatively scheduled to make his next start Saturday against Milwaukee.

DeGrom did not factor into the decision Sunday, allowing one run on seven hits and no walks over five-plus innings against Seattle. He struck out four.

DeGrom fired off five frames of one-run ball before allowing a pair of singles to open the sixth frame, prompting the Rangers to pull him at 90 pitches (66 strikes) in favor of Robby Ahlstrom. Ahlstrom closed the inning with no damage to preserve a 3-1 advantage, though struggles from the relievers after him kept Texas and deGrom from picking up the win. The 38-year-old hasn't put up the elite numbers he's regularly produced throughout his big-league career, but the two-time Cy Young Award winner has still been plenty serviceable in 2026. DeGrom, who will likely finish July winless, will take a 7-6 record with a 3.67 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 132:24 K:BB across 110.1 innings (20 starts) into his next outing, lined up for next weekend on the road in Houston.

Gilbert did not factor into the decision Sunday, allowing three runs on five hits and two walks over 5.2 innings in a 6-4 win over the Rangers. He struck out four.

Gilbert wasn't at his best but was still serviceable, falling one out shy of recording a quality start. Known for his ability to generate whiffs, the right-hander's four strikeouts marked his fewest since May 4 and was just the fourth time he hasn't racked up at least five punchouts this season. The 29-year-old will take an 8-6 record with a 3.44 ERA, 0.99 WHIP and 133:27 K:BB across 125.2 innings (21 starts) into his next outing, tentatively scheduled for Saturday against the Twins.
