Narvaez is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against Atlanta.

It's a routine day off for Narvaez, who has now started four of the last six contests at catcher. Mickey Gasper is getting a rare start behind the dish for the Red Sox in Tuesday's series opener.

The Mariners optioned Davila to Triple-A Tacoma on Tuesday.

Davila hasn't allowed a run in his first 7.1 big-league innings, but a 4:6 K:BB over that stretch points to trouble down the road. The 27-year-old is heading out in order to free roster space for the return of Gabe Speier (shoulder).

The Mariners activated Speier (shoulder) from the 15-day injured list Tuesday.

Speier has been out for all of May with left shoulder inflammation, but he's been cleared to rejoin the Mariners' bullpen after making a couple rehab appearances. Nick Davila has been optioned to Triple-A Tacoma to free a spot on the active roster for Speier's return.

Jump will be called up from Triple-A Las Vegas to make his major-league debut Tuesday with a start against the Mariners, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

Reports had surfaced earlier Tuesday indicating that Jump was on his way to the big leagues, and now there's a specific date attached to his debut. Tuesday's previously scheduled starter, Luis Severino, will be pushed back as a result of Jump's addition to the rotation. Jump has collected a 4.50 ERA and 56:20 K:BB over 38 innings with Las Vegas this season and has spun 11 shutout frames with a 15:1 K:BB in his last two starts.

Legumina allowed two hits and no walks in two scoreless innings of relief Monday against the Orioles. He struck out two.

After posting a 4.63 ERA and 1.54 WHIP over 11.2 innings for the Mariners, the 28-year-old right-hander has been more effective since being acquired by the Rays in late April. Over 10 frames since joining Tampa Bay's bullpen, Legumina has a 1.80 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 6:3 K:BB with one hold, while working mostly as a middle reliever.

The Guardians selected Dion's contract from Triple-A Columbus on Tuesday.

Dion has transitioned into a full-time reliever in 2026, and while his ERA at Columbus is a tad bloated at 4.50, he's put up an impressive 36:5 K:BB over 26 innings. The left-hander will be making his major-league debut when/if he gets into a game.

The Guardians optioned Allen to Triple-A Columbus on Tuesday.

Allen saved the Guardians' bullpen by recording seven strikeouts and allowing just two unearned runs allowed over four innings Monday versus the Nationals. He threw 83 pitches in the appearance, so Allen is being replaced by a fresh bullpen arm in Will Dion.

Bellinger went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in a 4-3 victory over the Royals on Monday.

Bellinger put New York on the board with a 403-foot solo shot in the second inning. The long ball extended his on-base streak to eight games, a span during which he has a 1.123 OPS with two homers, two doubles, six runs, three RBI and a 6:3 BB:K. Overall, Bellinger is slashing .274/.379/.484 with seven home runs, 33 runs, 33 RBI and five stolen bases across 53 contests on the campaign.

The Rays signed Kimbrel to a one-year contract Tuesday, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports.

Kimbrel elected free agency Monday after being removed from the Mets' 40-man roster, and he's managed to quickly land another major-league contract. Slated to turn 38 on Thursday, Kimbrel posted a 6.00 ERA, 1.47 WHIP and 15:6 K:BB over 15 innings with the Mets. The Rays are often able to work magic with pitchers and see something with Kimbrel they might be able to tap into, but he's nevertheless a long shot to produce fantasy value in Tampa Bay.

Perkins allowed two runs on three hits and no walks while striking out seven over 4.2 innings in Monday's 9-2 loss against the Mariners.

Relieving starter Aaron Civale, Perkins entered in the fifth inning and provided excellent length in a lopsided contest, though he eventually ran out of steam after surrendering a two-run homer to Randy Arozarena in the ninth frame. Perkins had previously been used in multi-inning relief appearances this season but hadn't exceeded 2.1 innings before Monday, while his seven strikeouts also established a season high. Overall, the right-hander owns a 2-2 record with a 5.04 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 31:5 K:BB while converting three of five save opportunities, with his most recent save coming April 30.
