  • Mariners' Miles Mastrobuoni: Recalled, starting in finale

    The Mariners recalled Mastrobuoni from Triple-A Tacoma on Sunday. He'll start at first base and bat ninth in the team's regular-season finale versus the Dodgers.

    He'll see his first MLB action since Aug. 7 as the Mariners give Josh Naylor (groin) a breather. Mastrobuoni has a .612 OPS in the majors this season but put up a .296/.415/.417 slash line with one homer and nine steals in 31 games with Tacoma.

  • Ian Seymour RP | TB

    Rays' Ian Seymour: Drawing start in season finale

    Seymour is slated to start Sunday's game in Toronto.

    In his most recent appearance Tuesday, Seymour ended up piggybacking starter Ryan Pepiot and covered four innings while allowing three earned runs on four hits and two walks. Seymour will return to a traditional starting role for the season finale and will look to finish the campaign on a high note as he makes a case for a spot in the 2026 rotation. Since being called up from Triple-A Durham on July 31, Seymour has logged a 3.14 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 48:14 K:BB in 43 innings over 11 outings.

    Aldegheri is slated to start Sunday's game against the Astros in Anaheim.

    He'll take a second straight turn through the rotation to close out the season after he was dealt a loss Tuesday against the Royals last week. Through three appearances (one start) with the Angels this season, the young southpaw has allowed eight earned runs on 13 hits and seven walks while striking out seven over nine innings.

  • Chris Murphy RP | CHW

    Red Sox's Chris Murphy: Optioned down

    The Red Sox optioned Murphy to Triple-A Worcester on Sunday.

    Murphy threw three scoreless innings in Saturday's loss to Detroit, bringing his ERA and WHIP down to 3.12 and 1.18, respectively, over 34.2 innings with the big club this season. Jose De Leon was called up from Triple-A in a corresponding move and will start the Red Sox's regular-season finale versus the Tigers. Murphy will likely stay active in case he's needed out of the bullpen at some point in the postseason.

  • Jose De Leon RP | BOS

    Red Sox's Jose De Leon: Called up, starting Sunday

    The Red Sox selected De Leon's contract from Triple-A Worcester, and he will start Sunday's regular-season finale against the Tigers, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.

    With the Red Sox locked into a wild-card spot and not in contention for the AL East title, they will give De Leon his first big-league opportunity since 2023. Chris Murphy was optioned in a corresponding move. De Leon put up a 6.93 ERA and 1.73 WHIP in 75.1 innings with Worcester this season.
