  • Jack Anderson RP | MIN

    Twins' Jack Anderson: Summoned from minors

    The Twins recalled Anderson from Triple-A St. Paul on Tuesday.

    Anderson was a waiver claim of the Twins earlier this month and will now get his first opportunity in the majors with his new organization. The right-hander is expected to pitch during Tuesday's game versus the Guardians, likely following Kendry Rojas.

  • 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).

  • Edgar Quero C | CHW

    White Sox's Edgar Quero: Recalled from Triple-A

    The White Sox recalled Quero from Triple-A Charlotte on Tuesday.

    He's getting another opportunity following the injury to Kyle Teel (ankle). Quero slashed just .187/.253/.233 earlier this season for the White Sox and hit only .230/.299/.295 at Charlotte, so it's difficult to summon much confidence he'll right the ship offensively. However, he should get an opportunity to at least share the catching job with Drew Romo while Teel is shelved.

  • Kyle Teel C | CHW

    White Sox's Kyle Teel: Out with ankle sprain

    The White Sox placed Teel on the 10-day injured list Tuesday due to a left ankle sprain.

    The 24-year-old departed Monday's game against the Rangers due to the injury and was sporting crutches after the contest, so it's hardly a surprise that he's ended up on the IL. It's unclear how long Teel is expected to be sidelined, but he'll be eligible to be reinstated July 31. Edgar Quero was called up from Triple-A Charlotte and should split catching duties with Drew Romo while Teel is out.

  • J.P. Crawford SS | SEA

    Mariners' J.P. Crawford: Recovering from sore wrist

    Mariners manager Dan Wilson said after Monday's 8-0 win over the Reds that Crawford was scratched from the lineup due to a sore left wrist, LookoutLanding.com reports.

    Colt Emerson was a late addition to the lineup as a replacement for Crawford, whom the Mariners are viewing as day-to-day while he manages the wrist issue. Since coming off the injured list June 16 after missing time with a bruised right hand, Crawford has served as a near-everyday player while moving between third base and shortstop but has slashed just .190/.302/.240 over 28 games. Crawford could be in danger of fading into more of a utility role once Brendan Donovan (groin) completes his rehab assignment and returns from the 10-day IL.

  • 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.

  • Zack Kelly RP | BOS

    Red Sox's Zack Kelly: Called up, placed on 60-day IL

    The Red Sox recalled Kelly (elbow) from Triple-A Worcester and placed him on the 60-day injured list Tuesday, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports.

    The right-hander landed on the 7-day IL at Worcester in early July due to elbow inflammation, and he'll now be sidelined until at least early September. The severity of the injury isn't clear, but it's possible that Kelly has already thrown his last competitive pitch of the season.

  • Eduardo Rivera SP | BOS

    Red Sox's Eduardo Rivera: Making another start Tuesday

    Rivera will start Tuesday's game against the Orioles, Tim Healey of The Boston Globe reports.

    Ranger Suarez (groin) was scheduled to come off the injured list to start Tuesday, but the Red Sox will instead turn to Rivera. The rookie left-hander has made three appearances for Boston this year and has given up three earned runs with a 9:4 K:BB over 9.1 innings.

  • 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.

  • Jose Fermin RP | LAA

    Angels' Jose Fermin: Credited with victory Monday

    Fermin (3-1) earned the win over St. Louis on Monday, walking one batter and striking out two over one scoreless inning.

    Fermin entered in the ninth frame with the Angels down 2-1. He didn't exactly have pinpoint control, throwing just 10 of 21 pitches for strikes, but the righty reliever worked around a two-out walk and then got the win when the Angels walked it off in the bottom of the inning. Fermin has been outstanding since his most recent call-up June 15, posting a 0.56 ERA, 0.81 WHIP and 16:4 K:BB over 16 innings spanning 12 appearances. He has only one hold and no saves over that span, but he could begin to see more high-leverage opportunities with continued success.
