Alvarez (oblique) has been activated from the 7-day injured list and is part of Triple-A Gwinett's starting lineup Friday.

Alvarez has been sidelined since June 26 due to a strained oblique, but he's been cleared to return to game action. The 22-year-old is slashing .417/.580/.611 in 50 plate appearances with Gwinnett this season.

The Brewers recalled Myers from Triple-A Nashville on Friday.

Milwaukee has already confirmed their rotation plans for this weekend's series versus the Nationals, so Myers is likely to work out of the bullpen. After missing almost the first month of the campaign due to an oblique injury, the right-hander has been at Triple-A since mid-May after posting a 4.95 ERA, 1.80 ERA and 15:10 K:BB over 20 innings (six outings) in the majors.

Borucki's (back) rehab assignment was transferred to Triple-A Indianapolis on Friday.

Borucki threw a perfect inning in a rehab outing at Low-A Bradenton, and he'll advance to Indianapolis. The 31-year-old reliever should need only one or two more minor-league appearances before being activated, though Pittsburgh will likely wait until after the All-Star break to add Borucki to the active roster.

The Brewers placed Ashby on the paternity list Friday.

The left-hander will step away from the team ahead of the final series before the All-Star break in order to be with his growing family. Ashby should be back with the Brewers by the start of the second half next week.

The Pirates designated Gorski for assignment Friday.

Gorski has been on the shelf with an undisclosed injury since May 23, and it's unclear when he'll be back in action. Friday's move opens up a spot for Yohan Ramirez on the 40-man roster.

The Pirates optioned Triolo to Triple-A Indianapolis on Friday.

Triolo had been mired in a 2-for-33 (.061) slump at the plate since June 10, and the Pirates will send him to Indianapolis to potentially rediscover his swing. The move opens up a spot on the active roster for reliever Yohan Ramirez.

The Pirates selected Ramirez's contract from Triple-A Indianapolis on Friday.

Ramirez will get his first taste of MLB action this season, as he is getting called up after re-signing a minor-league contract with Pittsburgh on July 6. The 30-year-old has logged a 3.07 ERA and a 39:11 K:BB across 29.1 innings with Indianapolis this season. Jared Triolo was optioned to Triple-A, and Matt Gorski was designated for assignment in corresponding moves.

The Mets optioned Hagenman to Triple-A Syracuse on Friday.

Hagenman will surrender his spot on the 26-man roster to Kodai Senga (hamstring), who has been activated from the injured list. In four MLB appearances this season, Hagenman has posted a 5.11 ERA and a 13:1 K:BB across 12.1 innings.

The Mets recalled Young from Triple-A Syracuse on Friday.

Young will take Jesse Winker's (back) spot on the active roster as Winker heads to the injured list. It'll be Young's second MLB stint of the campaign. He slashed .171/.227/.415 with three home runs in 44 plate appearances during his previous term with New York. Mark Vientos is likely to take over as New York's primary DH, leaving opportunities for Young to mix in at the corner infield positions as well as the DH spot.

The Mets activated Senga (hamstring) from the 15-day injured list to start Friday's game in Kansas City.

The right-hander has been sidelined nearly a month due to a right hamstring strain, but he's ready to rejoin New York's rotation after giving up three earned runs over 3.2 frames in his lone rehab outing. Senga threw 68 pitches in that appearance, so he's likely to face some light workload limitations in his first start back with the Mets. He'd been dominant in 2025 prior to the injury with a 1.47 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 70:31 K:BB across 73.2 innings.
