Colorado recalled Frasso from Triple-A Albuquerque on Monday.

Frasso will make his first big-league stint with the Rockies after being traded from the Dodgers on July 20. With Antonio Senzatela and Victor Vodnik both being dealt elsewhere during Monday's trade deadline, the Rockies, in need of another bullpen arm, promoted Frasso. During his time with both Triple-A Oklahoma and Albuquerque this season, the 27-year-old recorded a 4.15 ERA, 1.55 WHIP and 48:18 K:BB in 30.1 innings.

Muncy is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Cubs.

Beck was recalled from Triple-A Sacramento on Monday.

Beck has been back and forth between the big-league and Triple-A bullpen all season. He should work in low-leverage spots after the Giants dealt away four big-league pitchers prior to Monday's trade deadline.

Happ is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Dodgers.

The Cubs will give Happ a breather after he went 0-for-7 with a walk and a strikeout in the final two games of the weekend series with the Yankees. After being recalled from Triple-A Iowa, Kevin Alcantara will enter the starting nine in left field in place of Happ on Monday.

Cavanaugh is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Rangers.

Cavanaugh will take a seat while Daniel Susac receives a turn behind the plate in the series opener. Since the All-Star break, Cavanaugh has started in seven of the Giants' 17 contests and has slashed .250/.400/.250 with two runs and two RBI.

Sanmartin was recalled from Triple-A Sacramento on Monday.

Sanmartin was in the midst of a 12.1-inning scoreless stretch at Triple-A, logging a 0.97 WHIP and 11:1 K:BB in seven appearances since July 8. He will occupy a spot in the big-league bullpen following multiple departures at the trade deadline.

Seymour was recalled from Triple-A Sacramento on Monday.

Seymour has experience working as a starter, but lately he has been working out of the Triple-A bullpen, logging a 3.94 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 18 strikeouts in 16 innings over eight appearances. He could eventually work in high-leverage situations after Erik Miller and Caleb Kilian were dealt at the deadline.

Eldridge is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Rangers.

Right-hander Cal Quantrill is on the bump for the Rangers, but the left-handed-hitting Eldridge will get a breather nonetheless. Nate Furman will pick up a start at designated hitter in place of Eldridge, who slashed .220/.315/.385 with five home runs, one stolen base, 10 RBI and 14 runs while he was a part of the lineup for each of the Giants' last 29 games.

The Giants recalled Tidwell from Triple-A Sacramento on Monday.

With the trade deadline in the rear-view mirror, the Giants have multiple rotation and several bullpen spots to fill. Tidwell will be summoned to fill one of the voids in the rotation, with the Giants confirming that he'll start Tuesday's game against the Rangers in Texas, according to Justice delos Santos of The San Jose Mercury News. Tidwell made each of his eight appearances with the Giants earlier in the season out of the bullpen, but he had been part of the rotation at Triple-A since being demoted April 29. Over his last six outings with Sacramento, Tidwell posted a 3.13 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 32:12 K:BB in 31.2 innings.
