Jobe (1-2) took the loss against the Twins on Monday, allowing five runs (four earned) on six hits and two walks in five innings. He struck out four.

It was a shaky outing all around by Jobe, who served up a pair of home runs and two doubles as well. On a positive note, the 24-year-old right-hander did touch the 90-pitch marker for the first time this season, an important milestone amid his comeback from Tommy John surgery in May of 2025. He'll be looking to get back on track over the weekend in Cleveland, carrying a rocky 4.63 ERA, 1.46 WHIP and 19:10 K:BB over his first 23.1 innings.

Bradley (10-6) notched the win against the Tigers on Monday, allowing one run on four hits and three walks in seven innings. He struck out nine.

Hao-Yu Lee left the lone blemish in Bradley's line with a sixth-inning solo shot in an otherwise dominant performance by the hurler. Control remains a bit of an issue for the right-hander, who has walked multiple hitters in nine of his last 10 starts, but he's tallied at least seven punchouts in three straight outings. He's scheduled to close a two-start week against the White Sox this weekend in Chicago, where he'll take a 3.85 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 178:66 K:BB over 154.1 innings.

The Yankees are hopeful that Weathers (forearm) will be cleared to resume throwing at some point this week, Gary Phillips of the New York Daily News reports.

Manager Aaron Boone had previously reported that Weathers, who landed on the 15-day IL on Aug. 23 with a left forearm flexor strain, would be shut down from throwing for 2-to-4 weeks. While it seems the lefty is ahead of the team's initial timeline, he'll likely need a few weeks to work through a throwing program and ensure a full recovery.

Gusto took a no-decision against the Nationals on Monday, allowing one run on four hits and two walks in 4.1 innings. He struck out four.

Gusto threw four shutout innings before running into trouble in the fifth, when he was chased from the outing after recording one out in the frame. The Marlins have continually shown a lack of willingness to let the right-hander work deep into starts, as Gusto has pitched into the sixth inning just twice in 14 starts. He's slated to wrap up a two-start week over the weekend against the Cubs, holding a 3.86 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 57:20 K:BB over 67.2 innings.

Massey (elbow) was activated from the 60-day injured list Friday.

It's not exactly clear as to when Massey underwent UCL surgery, but he was placed on the 7-day injured list to begin the 2025 campaign and was then transferred to the 60-day IL in April 2025. He's since made a full recovery and made his professional debut at Single-A Lakeland on Friday, where he allowed two runs on one hit and two walks while striking out two over 1.2 innings.

Double-A Midland placed Baez on the 7-day injured list Aug. 5 due to an unspecified injury.

Baez has hit the shelf on two occasions this season, with another injury costing him about five weeks of action earlier in 2026. The 23-year-old righty possesses a spot on the Athletics' 40-man roster, but he's not believed to be in the mix for a September call-up, especially while he's on the mend from another injury. Baez owns a 7.09 ERA and 1.73 WHIP across 53.1 innings over his 14 starts for Midland on the season.

Steele (elbow) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Iowa on Wednesday, Taylor McGregor of Marquee Sports Network reports.

Steele has managed to successfully toss several bullpen sessions, proving that he's ready to progress to facing live hitters. He'll presumably need to make at least a few appearances in the minors before being activated from the 60-day injured list, at which point he would likely provide support for the Cubs out of the bullpen considering he won't have enough time to build back up to a starter's workload.

The Marlins optioned Gonzalez to Triple-A Jacksonville on Monday.

Gonzalez's stay with the Marlins lasted just two days and came and went without him making an appearance out of the bullpen. Miami recalled lefty Cade Gibson from Triple-A to replace Gonzalez on the active roster.

Ginn will no longer start Tuesday's game against the Rangers, as the Athletics want to give him additional rest before his next outing, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

Ginn has already logged a career-high 138.1 innings this season, so the decision to push him back could simply be about managing his workload. The right-hander is expected to make a start later this week in Seattle, though the exact date hasn't been revealed.

Ryan (glute) is scheduled to make a rehab start Tuesday with Triple-A St. Paul, per Aaron Gleeman of AaronGleeman.com.

Ryan, sidelined since Aug. 7, will take another step in his recovery by making his first rehab start Tuesday, marking his first game action in four weeks. The 30-year-old has progressed from a pair of bullpen sessions to facing live hitters and now will throw around 45-50 pitches (or three innings) for St. Paul, per Twins manager Derek Shelton. This year, the right-hander owns a 6-8 record, 3.65 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 138:27 K:BB over 125.2 innings.
