Robert Stock SP | NYM
Mets' Robert Stock: Debuts for Triple-A club
Stock (shoulder) struck out three and allowed one earned run on three hits and no walks across four innings Saturday in his 2026 debut for Triple-A Syracuse after being reinstated from the 60-day injured list.
While pitching for Team Israel in the World Baseball Classic back in March, Stock experienced shoulder discomfort and was later diagnosed with symptoms consistent with thoracic outlet syndrome. The 36-year-old later underwent surgery to address the condition, and he made rapid progress from a procedure that often entails a 3-to-6-month recovery. He kicked off a rehab assignment June 19 and received the green light to join the Syracuse rotation coming out of the All-Star break after he logged a 2.38 ERA, 0.62 WHIP and 17:1 K:BB in 11.1 innings over his five outings with High-A Brooklyn.

Bubba Chandler SP | PIT
Pirates' Bubba Chandler: Tuesday's game postponed
Chandler won't pitch as scheduled Tuesday against the Yankees since the game was postponed due to a forecast of inclement weather, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.
The 23-year-old's first start coming out of the All-Star break will have to wait at least one more day, with Tuesday's game being made up via a doubleheader Wednesday. Chandler, who has a 4.77 ERA, 1.45 WHIP and 85:55 K:BB over 94.1 innings this season, should start one of those contests in the twin bill.

Will Warren SP | NYY
Yankees' Will Warren: Game rained out Tuesday
Warren won't pitch as scheduled Tuesday against the Pirates since the game was postponed due to a forecast of inclement weather, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.
The right-hander was scheduled to make his first start of the second half Tuesday but will instead get some extra rest. The game is being made up via a doubleheader Wednesday, with Warren likely to pitch in one of those contests. He headed into the All-Star break with a 4.03 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and 96:33 K:BB across 98.1 innings (19 starts).

Kyle Harrison SP | MIL
Brewers' Kyle Harrison: Nearing rehab assignment
Harrison (elbow) is scheduled to throw live batting practice Saturday and begin a rehab assignment July 31, Hunter Baumgardt of Fox Sports 920 Milwaukee reports.
Harrison has been on the injured list since just before the All-Star break due to elbow soreness, so he may only need one rehab start in the minors before re-entering Milwaukee's rotation. Assuming the left-hander avoids any setbacks, he could be back on the big-league mound during the first week of August.

Jacob Misiorowski SP | MIL
Brewers' Jacob Misiorowski: Not making another start this week
Misiorowski is not listed among the Brewers' probable pitchers for this weekend's series at home against the Rockies, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.
Misiorowski returned from a nearly two-week absence with arm fatigue on Monday versus the Mets, allowing just one unearned run over four innings and getting lifted after just 65 pitches. The Brewers plan to closely monitor Misiorowski's workload in the second half, as he is just 26.1 innings shy of last year's total from the minors, majors and postseason combined. Manager Pat Murphy has indicated the team will "lean more towards" pulling Misiorowski early from outings rather than skipping them, per Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. However, the team will also buy the hurler extra rest whenever possible, which it will do this weekend in moving Brandon Sproat ahead of Misiorowski to start Sunday. Misiorowski's next outing could come as soon as Monday in San Francisco.

Argenis Cayama SP | SF
Giants' Argenis Cayama: Rehabbing in Arizona
Single-A San Jose sent Cayama (back spasms) on a rehab assignment in the Arizona Complex League on July 11.
Per Josh Norris of Baseball America, Cayama was placed on the injured list at Single-A on June 5 due to back spasms. Still just 19, the 6-foot Cayama has a 4.17 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 50:8 K:BB in 41 innings, primarily in the Cal League.

Sadbiel Delzine SP | BOS
Red Sox's Sadbiel Delzine: Bumped to Single-A
Delzine was promoted from the Florida Complex League to Single-A Salem on Tuesday.
The FCL season hasn't wrapped up yet, but the Red Sox felt it was time to challenge their top teenage pitching prospect with his first assignment to full-season ball. Delzine, a 6-foot-5 Venezuelan righty, logged a 2.72 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 43:18 K:BB in 39.2 innings in rookie ball. The dynasty buzz will grow quite loud if he translates that success against Single-A hitters.

Brody Brecht SP | COL
Rockies' Brody Brecht: Shelved at High-A
High-A Spokane placed Brecht on the 7-day injured list May 23 with a right shoulder injury, Geoff Pontes of Baseball America reports.
Pontes reports Brecht is due back as early as late July, although he hasn't begun a rehab assignment yet. Brecht has big stuff, but his fantasy appeal is limited due to the fact he's a Rockies pitching prospect. The 23-year-old righty logged a 5.23 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and 31:15 K:BB in 20.2 innings prior to the injury.

Patrick Forbes SP | ARI
Diamondbacks' Patrick Forbes: Elbow barking again
Forbes has not pitched for High-A Hillsboro since June 27 due to elbow discomfort, Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic reports.
As of July 5, the organization said it was hopeful Forbes would return in July, but given he missed the first eight weeks of the season with a right elbow flexor injury and also had a flexor strain last year, there is plenty of cause for concern. Prior to this latest arm injury, Forbes dominated the competition to the tune of a 2.45 ERA, 0.68 WHIP and 20:2 K:BB in 14.2 innings, primarily at High-A. His fastball sits in the mid-90s and his dastardly 83-mph slider gives him a second plus pitch. He should be considered out indefinitely and is at high risk of needing elbow surgery sooner than later.

Ranger Suarez SP | BOS
Red Sox's Ranger Suarez: Clear of major setback
The Red Sox want to give Suarez (groin), who will not start Tuesday against the Orioles as previously scheduled, at least one more day before reinstating him from the injured list after he pushed himself pretty hard over the past few days, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.
Eduardo Rivera is instead taking the mound Tuesday for Boston. Suarez has been on the shelf since sustaining the left groin strain July 5 in Anaheim, and he was set to rejoin the big-league rotation without a rehab assignment. The left-hander still seems like an option to pitch in Wednesday's series finale, though his status is a bit up in the air until the team provides a more concrete update.
