  • Jake McCarthy CF | COL

    Diamondbacks' Jake McCarthy: Summoned from Triple-A

    The Diamondbacks recalled McCarthy from Triple-A Reno on Tuesday.

    The 27-year-old was demoted to Reno in late April after batting .073 (3-for-41) through 14 games, but he'll receive another chance in the majors due to Corbin Carroll landing on the injured list with a fractured wrist. McCarthy has been productive at Triple-A this season with 12 steals, one home run and a .314/.401/.440 slash line in 237 plate appearances. He will start in right field Tuesday against the White Sox, and he could end up filling the strong side of a platoon at the position with the right-handed-hitting Randal Grichuk while Carroll is on the shelf.

    Diamondbacks' Corbin Carroll: Placed on IL with fractured wrist

    The Diamondbacks placed Carroll on the 10-day injured list Tuesday with a fractured left wrist.

    Carroll suffered the injury on a hit-by-pitch last Wednesday, and while initial tests were negative, subsequent exams revealed the unfortunate news. The Diamondbacks have not offered a timetable for Carroll's return, but the outfielder seems like a good bet to remain out through the All-Star break. Jake McCarthy has been recalled to take Carroll's roster spot and could see starts in right field along with Randal Grichuk.

  • Frankie Montas RP | NYM

    Mets' Frankie Montas: Activated for 2025 MLB debut

    The Mets reinstated Montas (lat) from the 60-day injured list to start Tuesday's game against Atlanta.

    The right-hander has been sidelined by a right lat strain since the start of spring training, but he's ready to make his debut for the Mets after inking a one-year, $17 million contract in December. Montas wasn't particularly effective during his six-start rehab assignment with a 12.05 ERA and 12:10 K:BB across 18.2 innings, but he at least built up close to a full workload with 80 pitches over five frames in his final rehab outing.

  • Jesse Winker DH | NYM

    Mets' Jesse Winker: Shifted to 60-day injured list

    The Mets transferred Winker (oblique) from the 10-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Tuesday.

    Winker was moved to the 60-day IL in order to free up a spot on the 40-man roster for Frankie Montas (lat), who was activated from the 60-day IL ahead of his start Tuesday against Atlanta. The transaction does not alter Winker's timetable, as he is coming up on the 60-day mark of his absence with a right oblique strain and still appears to be at least a couple of weeks away from a return.

  • Chris Devenski RP | PIT

    Mets' Chris Devenski: Sent back to minors

    The Mets optioned Devenski to Triple-A Syracuse on Tuesday.

    He's clearing out to make room on the roster for Frankie Montas (lat), who will make his season and Mets debut Tuesday. Devenski has allowed two runs with a 5:1 K:BB over five innings during his time with the big club in 2025.

  • Pirates' Michael Darrell-Hicks: Poised for promotion

    The Pirates will recall Darrell-Hicks from Triple-A Indianapolis prior to Tuesday's game in Milwaukee, Noah Hiles of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

    He'll take the roster spot of Hunter Stratton. Darrell-Hicks was a waiver claim earlier this month and has allowed eight runs with a 6:4 K:BB over 7.2 frames at the big-league level in 2025.

  • Chase Burns SP | CIN

    Reds' Chase Burns: Called up, will start Tuesday

    Cincinnati selected Burns' contract from Triple-A Louisville on Tuesday.

    The Reds had already announced Monday that Burns had arrived in Cincinnati and was set to start Tuesday's game against the Yankees, but the team waited a day to make his call-up official. Regarded as one of the top pitching prospects in baseball, Burns reached the big leagues after blazing through three levels of the minors this season. Over stops with High-A Dayton, Double-A Chattanooga and Louisville, Burns turned in a 1.77 ERA, 0.77 WHIP and 89:13 K:BB in 66 innings across 13 starts. While the Reds are likely to keep a close eye on the 22-year-old's workload over the rest of the season, he possesses the skill set to make a big splash in the majors right away. The Reds optioned reliever Yosver Zulueta to Triple-A to clear room on the active roster for Burns.

  • Yosver Zulueta RP | BAL

    Reds' Yosver Zulueta: Moved to Triple-A

    The Reds optioned Zulueta to Triple-A Louisville on Tuesday.

    The transaction frees a roster spot for right-hander Chase Burns, who has been called up to start Tuesday's game against the Yankees. Zulueta had just been recalled Sunday and did not make an appearance out of the bullpen during his most recent stint in the majors.

  • Eugenio Suarez DH | CIN

    Diamondbacks' Eugenio Suarez: Will sit out Tuesday

    Suarez (hand) won't be included in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the White Sox, John Gambadoro of Arizona Sports 98.7 FM reports.

    X-rays on Suarez's right hand came back negative after he was struck by a pitch in his lone plate appearance in Monday's 10-0 win, but he'll get at least one game off while he waits for the soreness and bruising on his hand to subside. Arizona will likely turn to Ildemaro Vargas or Tim Tawa to fill in for Suarez at third base.

  • Josh Naylor 1B | SEA

    Diamondbacks' Josh Naylor: In Tuesday's lineup

    Naylor (shoulder) will be in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the White Sox, John Gambadoro of Arizona Sports 98.7 FM reports.

    Naylor had to be removed from Monday's contest in Chicago after tweaking his right shoulder on a swing. However, he has avoided a serious injury and will be back in there a day later. Naylor has collected an .824 OPS with nine home runs over 75 games for the Diamondbacks this season.
