  • Max Meyer SP | MIA

    Marlins' Max Meyer: Plays catch Monday

    Meyer (hip) was spotted playing catch Monday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

    While Meyer is throwing again, the Marlins haven't indicated when he might be ready to return from the 15-day injured list as he continues to recover from a left hip impingement. A clearer timeline for Meyer's return could come into focus once he reaches the point in his rehab where he's facing hitters in live batting practice.

  • Alex Call LF | LAD

    Nationals' Alex Call: Taking seat Tuesday

    Call is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rockies.

    Call had started each of the previous 12 games but will take a seat Tuesday. It's possible he will see a dip in playing time in favor of Daylen Lile, who was recalled Monday and will now draw a second straight start in right field.

  • Jack Dreyer RP | LAD

    Dodgers' Jack Dreyer: Opening Tuesday's contest

    Dreyer will serve as the Dodgers' opening pitcher in Tuesday's game versus the Padres, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

    Dreyer will draw his fourth opener assignment this season, after he previously allowed a total of four runs over 5.1 innings across his first three times opening a game. The southpaw hasn't been used out of the bullpen since last Wednesday and should be capable of giving the Dodgers anywhere between one and three innings before he exits the contest. Right-hander Matt Sauer is a good bet to serve as a bulk reliever for the Dodgers on Tuesday.

  • Jordan Beck LF | COL

    Rockies' Jordan Beck: Day off Tuesday

    Beck is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game versus the Nationals.

    It appears to be a routine day off for Beck. The Rockies are going with Sam Hilliard in left field Tuesday, and Mickey Moniak has been elevated to the leadoff spot.

  • Dane Myers CF | CIN

    Marlins' Dane Myers: Expected to sit out Tuesday

    Myers (elbow) is not expected to be in the lineup for Tuesday's contest versus the Phillies, Isaac Azout of FishOnFirst.com reports.

    Myers exited Monday's 5-2 loss after being drilled in the left elbow by a pitch. X-rays came back negative, and the Marlins are hopeful Myers can avoid a stint on the 10-day injured list, but he will need at least one day of rest.

  • Braves' Jurickson Profar: Starting rehab assignment Tuesday

    Profar (suspension) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Gwinnett on Tuesday, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports.

    Profar will get some at-bats at Gwinnett for the next two weeks before being reinstated from his 80-game PED suspension July 2. Atlanta has struggled to get production from its left-field position, so Profar should immediately slide back into a starting job once he returns to the active roster.

  • Adam Mazur P | MIA

    Marlins' Adam Mazur: Expected to make start this week

    Mazur has joined the Marlins in Miami and is expected to be recalled from Triple-A Jacksonville to make a start this week during the team's homestand, Craig Mish of the Miami Herald reports.

    The Marlins do not have a starting pitcher listed for Wednesday's game against the Phillies, and Mazur would be on six days' rest that day, so he could end up slotting into the rotation for that contest. Mazur has collected a 3.62 ERA and 55:16 K:BB over 59.2 innings this season with Jacksonville. The 24-year-old has a chance to make multiple starts with the big club, although that could depend on when Max Meyer (hip) is ready to return from the injured list.

  • Brewers' Garrett Mitchell: Moving rehab up to Triple-A

    Mitchell (oblique) has been transferred to Triple-A Nashville to continue his rehab assignment, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

    Mitchell struck out in both plate appearances during his lone rehab game over the weekend with the Brewers' rookie-level Arizona Complex League affiliate, but Milwaukee was convinced that the outfielder was ready to move his rehab assignment up to Nashville. The 26-year-old has been sidelined since late April with a left oblique strain, so he'll need a handful of rehab contests to get his timing back at the plate before the Brewers activate him from the 10-day injured list. Once activated, Mitchell should take over as Milwaukee's primary center fielder, which will allow Jackson Chourio to move back to left field.

  • Braves' Drue Hackenberg: Activated at Double-A

    Double-A Columbus reinstated Hackenberg (undisclosed) from its 7-day injured list Thursday.

    Hackenberg has yet to make an appearance since being activated, but he's ostensibly healthy again after missing just over a month of action with an unspecified injury. The 23-year-old righty owns a 7.03 ERA and 1.83 WHIP in 24.1 innings with Columbus on the season.

  • Didier Fuentes RP | ATL

    Braves' Didier Fuentes: Healthy again, moves to Triple-A

    Fuentes (hand) debuted for Triple-A Gwinnett on Saturday, covering 4.2 innings and striking out six batters while allowing one earned run on three hits and no walks.

    Double-A Columbus had placed Fuentes on its 7-day injured list May 27 due to a blister on his pitching hand, but rather than reporting to a lower-level affiliate for a rehab assignment or slotting back into the Double-A rotation, the right-hander was surprisingly moved up to Gwinnett for his first start coming off the injury once he was activated Friday. The 20-year-old turned in an impressive debut for Gwinnett and has continued to elevate his standing as a prospect in 2025 after a strong showing in the Carolina League a season ago.
