The Orioles transferred Young (hamstring) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Wednesday.

The move to the 60-day IL spells an official end to Young's season. According to Jake Rill of MLB.com, Young said that he expects to face a six-week recovery from the left hamstring strain, which should allow him to have a normal offseason. In 12 starts with the big club as a rookie, the 27-year-old right-hander went 1-7 and submitted a 6.24 ERA, 1.54 WHIP and 47:22 K:BB in 57.2 innings. Young should get the chance to compete for a spot in the Orioles' Opening Day rotation in 2026, but in light of his poor numbers in his first taste of the majors this season, he'll likely need a strong spring to secure a starting role with the big club.

Drohan (forearm), whom Triple-A Worcester reinstated from its 60-day injured list Tuesday, is slated to start or pitch in bulk relief Friday, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.

Top prospect Payton Tolle is also in line to pitch Friday, and Worcester plans to have him piggyback or get piggybacked by Drohan, who will be making his first appearance for the Triple-A affiliate since May 7 after he had been shut down due to left forearm inflammation. Prior to getting hurt, Drohan was enjoying a strong season out of the Worcester rotation, logging a 2.03 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 38:11 K:BB in 26.2 innings through seven appearances. The 26-year-old lefty could struggle to return to his prior form before season's end after he endured a bumpy three-start rehab assignment at High-A Greenville in which he gave up six earned runs to go with a 10:5 K:BB in 6.1 innings.

The Mariners recalled Hancock from Triple-A Tacoma on Wednesday.

Hancock recently moved to the bullpen at Tacoma and his stuff played up, as he averaged 97 miles per hour with his four-seamer and topped out at 99.1 mph. The righty will likely be used in low-leverage situations initially but could be entrusted with late-inning appearances before long if he gets off to a good start.

Lopez (shoulder) struck out five and allowed three earned runs on six hits and no walks across four innings in his rehab start Tuesday with Triple-A St. Paul.

Making the second start of his rehab assignment with St. Paul, Lopez got stretched out to 68 pitches (46 strikes) and induced 12 swings and misses. He averaged 93.8 miles per hour with his fastball in the outing, about one tick behind his season average prior to landing on the shelf June 5 due to a right teres major muscle strain. The Twins will likely have Lopez get further stretched in one more rehab start before he potentially returns from the 60-day injured list during the team's series in Kansas City that begins Sept. 5.

Tong, who will be called up from Triple-A Syracuse to start Friday's game against the Marlins, won't be guaranteed any additional turns through the big-league rotation, Will Sammon and Tim Britton of the Athletic report. "We're going turn by turn at this point," president of baseball operations David Stearns said Tuesday. "We try not to plan too far ahead."

The minor-league strikeout leader will make his MLB debut Friday as the Mets build in an extra day of rest for other members of the rotation amid a busy portion of the schedule. Whether Tong forces New York to stick with a six-man rotation moving forward or bumps one of the veterans starters to the bullpen will likely depend on how he fares Friday, and whether he gives the club the best chance to win games in a tight playoff race.

Strider is set to receive an additional day of rest before his next start and isn't expected to return to the hill until Monday's game against the Cubs in Chicago, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

After delivering seven innings of one-run ball in Atlanta's 2-1 loss to the Marlins on Monday, Strider had been lined to get his second start of the week this Sunday in Philadelphia. However, Atlanta is opting to have him swap spots in the pitching schedule with rookie Hurston Waldrep, who will take the hill Sunday on four days' rest after starting in Tuesday's 11-2 win over Miami. Strider may not be in line for any two-start weeks for the remainder of the season, as Atlanta plans to bring Chris Sale (ribcage) back from the injured list this weekend and move forward with a six-man rotation, even though the club will have every Thursday off in September.

Quantrill (calf) is slated to start Thursday's series opener against the Phillies in Philadelphia, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

After being claimed off waivers from the Marlins last week, Quantrill made his Atlanta debut during Saturday's 9-2 loss to the Mets. Quantrill, who took his 11th loss of the season, struck out three and was charged with three earned runs on five hits and five walks across 4.2 innings before departing due to calf cramps. Atlanta described Quantrill's removal from the contest as precautionary, and after receiving treatment to address the issue, the right-hander will be ready to take the hill Thursday on normal rest.

Manoah (elbow) worked 5.1 innings in a rehab start for Triple-A Buffalo on Tuesday, striking out five and allowing three unearned runs on six hits and two walks.

The 27-year-old right-hander tossed 50 of 85 pitches for strikes, so at least in terms of workload, Manoah appears ready to come off the 60-day injured list. Over three starts for Buffalo, however, his 3.09 ERA in 11.2 innings isn't supported by his 1.61 WHIP and 10:7 K:BB. The Blue Jays don't have room in their rotation for Manoah even if he were pitching well, so if he does get activated and added to the big-league roster, he would likely be returning to a low-leverage, long-relief role.

The Marlins placed Junk on the 15-day injured list Wednesday due to right ulnar nerve irritation.

Junk departed his most recent start Saturday against the Blue Jays with discomfort in his pitching arm, and he's subsequently been diagnosed with the ulnar nerve issue. The righty will be eligible for activation Sept. 8, but it's too soon to know whether he has a chance to be ready to go on that date.

The Twins activated Woods Richardson (illness) from the 15-day injured list Wednesday, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.

Woods Richardson will rejoin the Twins and will start Wednesday's game in Toronto after missing much of August while recovering from a procedure to remove a parasite from his digestive tract. The righty went 3.1 innings and threw 64 pitches in his second of two rehab starts with Triple-A St. Paul this past Thursday, so his workload could be relatively limited Wednesday.
