The Mets recalled Warren from Triple-A Syracuse on Thursday.

Warren made one scoreless appearance for the Mets in May and is back for another opportunity. The 29-year-old will provide manager Carlos Mendoza with a fresh bullpen arm.

The Mets optioned Pintaro to Triple-A Syracuse on Thursday.

Pintaro was roughed up for two runs while recording only two outs in his major-league debut Wednesday against Atlanta and finds himself back in the minors a day later. Austin Warren will absorb his spot on the roster and in the bullpen.

Wrobleski is expected to start or pitch in bulk relief during Sunday's game in Kansas City, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.

The Dodgers are holding off naming a starter for the series finale against the Royals, likely because they're planning to use an opener in front of Wrobleski. The southpaw has fared much better in bulk relief than he has as a traditional starter, posting a 1.96 ERA, 0.87 WHIP and 19:2 K:BB over 18.1 innings in the former role.

Hicks isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game versus San Francisco.

Hicks will get a chance to catch his breath Thursday after going 5-for-16 with an RBI and a run scored across his last five games. His absence will put Agustin Ramirez in the DH spot while Nick Fortes starts behind the plate.

The Dodgers optioned Klein to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Thursday.

Klein pitched well during his brief time in the majors, tossing 3.2 scoreless frames with a 5:1 K:BB. However, he wasn't going to be available for a day or two after throwing two innings and 36 pitches Wednesday. Klein should get another chance later this season.

Bailey isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Marlins, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Bailey will rest during Thursday's series finale after going 1-for-6 with an RBI and two strikeouts over the first two games of the series. Andrew Knizner will catch instead for starter Hayden Birdsong and bat ninth.

The Dodgers activated Garcia (adductor) from the 15-day injured list Thursday.

Garcia has been shelved since early June due to a right adductor strain, but he's ready to roll after making one scoreless rehab appearance. Will Klein was optioned to Triple-A Oklahoma City in a corresponding move.

Schmitt (wrist) isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Marlins, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Schmitt took a pitch off his left wrist during the ninth inning of Wednesday's contest, and the Giants intended to take him out of the game if his spot in the lineup was due up in extra innings. The 26-year-old said after the game that X-rays on his wrist came back negative, per Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area, but the team will give him a day off Thursday to recover while Christian Koss starts at third base.

Sheehan struck out 13 batters over six perfect innings Wednesday for Triple-A Oklahoma City.

This was a statement start from Sheehan in Sacramento, as he was optioned down last week after a strong four-inning outing for the big club. He won't be eligible to be recalled until the middle of next week, but the Dodgers don't have an off day from July 1 through July 9, so they could find a spot to use him. Sheehan threw 123.1 innings in 2023 before needing Tommy John surgery in May 2024. He has logged 21.1 innings thus far in 2025 between the majors and minors.

Gorman will start at designated hitter and bat seventh in Thursday's game versus the Cubs.

It's the second day in a row that Gorman has started against a left-handed pitcher, and he's been in the lineup 15 times across the Cardinals' last 17 contests. The 25-year-old has posted a .919 OPS with four home runs and 10 RBI over that stretch.
