Scott (elbow) is expected to be activated from the 15-day injured list ahead of the Dodgers' upcoming weekend series against the Padres, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.

Scott threw one relief inning during a rehab outing with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Tuesday, and manager Dave Roberts said Wednesday that Scott will "probably not" pitch again in the minors before rejoining the big-league club. Scott hasn't pitched with Los Angeles since July 21 and holds a 4.14 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 50:11 K:BB across 45.2 innings this season. He's notched 19 saves and should be back in the closer mix once reinstated.

Schwarber went 3-for-5 with a two-run homer, a double, five total RBI and an additional run scored in Wednesday's 11-2 victory over the Mariners.

Schwarber capped his five-RBI outburst in the eighth inning with his 45th homer of the season, good for second most in the majors. Schwarber now has eight homers and 22 RBI in his last 17 games. Overall, he's slashing .253/.373/.584 with 109 RBI, 89 runs scored and 10 stolen bases across 566 plate appearances this season.

Turner went 5-for-6 with a triple, two stolen bases, three runs scored and a pair of RBI in Wednesday's 11-2 win over the Mariners.

Turner extended his hit streak to 10 games with another multi-hit effort -- he's gone an incredible 24-for-46 (.522) with five extra-base hits and 12 runs scored in that span. The 32-year-old Turner boosted his slash line to .303/.357/.451 with 13 homers, 87 runs scored, 59 RBI and 31 stolen bases across 568 plate appearances this year.

Tidwell will undergo an MRI on his right shoulder after experiencing discomfort during a recent bullpen session, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Tidwell was one of three players the Giants acquired July 30 in the deal that sent reliever Tyler Rogers to the Mets. The Giants assigned Tidwell to Triple-A Sacramento following his acquisition, and he pitched in three games (two starts) for the affiliate, registering a 1.69 ERA, 0.88 WHIP and 23:5 K:BB across 16 innings. He may have been in line for a promotion to the big leagues at some point later this season, but the shoulder issue could end up delaying his Giants debut until 2026.

Luzardo (12-6) earned the win Wednesday over the Mariners, allowing a run on three hits over six innings. He struck out 12.

Luzardo was dominant Wednesday, striking out a season-high 12 while holding Seattle to a lone run on Julio Rodriguez's homer in the first inning. The 27-year-old Luzardo has turned in five straight quality starts, posting a 2.32 ERA in that span (31 innings). Overall, his ERA sits at 4.10 with a 1.30 WHIP and 170 strikeouts through 26 starts (145 innings) this season. Luzardo's currently lined up to face the Mets on the road his next time out.

Santana earned the save in Wednesday's 2-1 win over the Blue Jays, striking out one in a perfect ninth inning.

Santana made quick work of the middle of Toronto's lineup, retiring the side in order to close out his ninth save in 11 chances this year. Santana has turned in five straight scoreless appearances (5.1 innings), allowing just two hits while striking out four in that span. His ERA is down to 2.32 through 54.1 innings this season with a 0.88 WHIP and 43:11 K:BB.

Oviedo (1-0) earned the win Wednesday over the Blue Jays, allowing a run on two hits and a walk across five innings. He struck out five.

George Springer's homer to lead off the game proved to be the lone mark against Oviedo, as the right-hander proceeded to hold Toronto to just one additional hit over his final four innings en route to his first major-league win since 2023. The 27-year-old Oviedo had pitched to a 3.12 ERA with a 1.04 WHIP and 36:7 K:BB across eight starts (26 innings) in the minors this year. He should get a chance to stick in Pittsburgh's rotation following Wednesday's performance -- Oviedo is currently lined up to face the Cardinals on the road his next time out.

Nimmo was removed from Wednesday's game against the Nationals due to neck stiffness, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

The 32-year-old grounded into a double play in the top of the first inning and was replaced in left field by Starling Marte in the bottom of the third. Consider Nimmo headed into Thursday's series finale in Washington.

The Dodgers optioned Diaz to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Wednesday.

The move corresponds with the Dodgers recalling Paul Gervase from Triple-A. Diaz has struggled out of the bullpen in three of his last five outings, allowing five runs on five hits and two walks while striking out five across 4.2 innings over that span. He'll look to regain his control in Triple-A and could return to the majors should the Dodgers need right-handed depth out of the bullpen.

The Dodgers recalled Gervase from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Wednesday.

Gervase will join the Dodgers' bullpen while Alexis Diaz was optioned to Triple-A in a corresponding move. Gervase was acquired by the Dodgers from the Rays in late July and has appeared in five games for Oklahoma City, where he's posted a 2.08 ERA and 0.85 WHIP over 8.2 innings. He pitched in five major-league games for Tampa Bay before being traded and had a 4.26 ERA and 1.74 WHIP across 6.1 frames.
