  • Jake Eder RP | LAD

    Angels' Jake Eder: Promoted to majors

    Eder was recalled from Triple-A Salt Lake on Saturday.

    Once a top prospect in the Marlins' system, Eder is now on his third team and in his first year as a member of the Angels. He had a 6.00 ERA, 1.44 WHIP and 13:3 K:BB in nine innings across three starts in the Pacific Coast League. Eder appears poised to work in a long-relief role.

  • Edouard Julien 2B | COL

    Twins' Edouard Julien: Sitting Saturday

    Julien isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Angels.

    Julien will get a breather Saturday after drawing four walks and scoring three runs in the series opener. Brooks Lee will shift to second base, allowing Jonah Bride to start at third base and bat sixth.

  • Luke Keaschall 2B | MIN

    Twins' Luke Keaschall: Officially placed on IL

    The Twins placed Keaschall (forearm) on the 10-day injured list Saturday.

    Keaschall suffered a right forearm fracture after getting hit by a pitch in the first inning of Friday's game. The Twins haven't provided a timeline for the 22-year-old's return just yet, but it will likely be several weeks before he's ready to come off the IL.

  • Athletics' Lawrence Butler: Rare day off

    Butler is not in Saturday's lineup against the White Sox.

    It's Butler's second day off of the season and first since April 12. He has led off in every start and is hitting .257 with four home runs, 16 runs, seven RBI and five steals in 26 games.

  • Athletics' Shea Langeliers: Day off Saturday

    Langeliers is not in Saturday's lineup against the White Sox.

    Langeliers had started seven games in a row, so this is just a routine day off. He's hitting .220 with two home runs, four runs, four RBI and one steal over his last 10 games.

  • Jacob Lopez SP | ATH

    Athletics' Jacob Lopez: Back in majors

    The Athletics recalled Lopez from Triple-A Las Vegas on Saturday.

    Just three days after being sent to Triple-A, Lopez will return to the big club Saturday to replace J.T. Ginn (elbow) on the active roster. The 27-year-old Lopez has punched out five batters and walked three over 4.1 shutout innings in the majors this season and will likely return to a middle-relief role.

  • J.T. Ginn SP | ATH

    Athletics' J.T. Ginn: Sent to injured list

    The Athletics placed Ginn on the 15-day injured list Saturday with right elbow inflammation.

    Ginn surrendered three runs over 3.2 innings during his most recent start Thursday, and he appears to have come away from the outing with some elbow trouble. He'll sit out the next couple of weeks at least as a result. A rotation replacement for Ginn hasn't been named yet, but Jacob Lopez will come up from Triple-A to give the Athletics extra bullpen depth for now.

  • Colin Selby RP | BAL

    Orioles' Colin Selby: Working as 27th man Saturday

    The Orioles added Selby to their active roster to serve as the 27th man for Saturday's doubleheader against the Tigers, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

    Selby gave up two earned runs in one inning during his lone major-league outing this season, but he's given up just one run in 5.1 frames at Triple-A. He'll give the O's some bullpen depth for Saturday's twin bill but will almost certainly be sent back to Norfolk after the end of the second game.

  • Dylan Carlson LF | CHC

    Orioles' Dylan Carlson: Recalled from Norfolk

    The Orioles recalled Carlson from Triple-A Norfolk on Saturday, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

    With Tyler O'Neill (neck) headed for the injured list, Carlson will come up from the minors to replenish Baltimore's outfield depth. The 26-year-old has spent most of the season in Triple-A, where he's slashed .286/.418/.381 with 11 RBI, 18 runs scored and four steals through 18 games.

  • Tyler O'Neill RF | BAL

    Orioles' Tyler O'Neill: Lands on injured list

    The Orioles placed O'Neill on the 10-day injured list Saturday with neck soreness, Roch Kubatko of MASNSports.com reports.

    O'Neill's neck has been a recurring problem over the past couple of weeks, and the Orioles will now send him to the injured list to give him time to properly correct the issue. He'll be eligible to return May 4, and Dylan Carlson will come up from Triple-A Norfolk in the meantime to fill the open roster spot.
