The Diamondbacks optioned Henry to Triple-A Reno on Tuesday.

Henry was recalled by Arizona on Sunday and made his lone major-league appearance against the Mets on Monday, when he tossed 2.2 scoreless innings, allowing one hit and no walks while striking out one batter. The move makes room on the Diamondbacks' 26-man roster for Cristian Mena, who was recalled from Triple-A in a corresponding move. Henry is 0-4 in six starts with Reno, posting an 8.53 ERA, 1.89 WHIP and 25:15 K:BB across 31.2 innings.

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

With Tommy Henry headed back to the minors, the Diamondbacks will call upon Mena to presumably serve as a long reliever for the big-league squad. The 22-year-old righty gave up four earned runs in three innings during his MLB debut last season, and he's turned in a 5.76 ERA through 29.2 innings in Triple-A this year.

Manager Dave Roberts said Edman (ankle) is unlikely to come off the injured list during the series in Arizona over the weekend, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Edman is set to do some running Tuesday while the Dodgers play in Miami. His ankle has not responded as quickly as the team initially anticipated, which resulted in Hyeseong Kim getting called up from Triple-A Oklahoma City. While it Edman is eligible to return Saturday from the 10-day injured list, he is now more likely to return May 13 versus the Athletics, as the Dodgers have an off day May 12.

Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol said Tuesday that Herrera (knee) could be activated from the 10-day injured list during the team's road trip that begins Friday, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

Herrera has gone 6-for-14 with one home run and one double in his first four rehab games with Triple-A Memphis and will catch seven innings in his fifth rehab contest Tuesday. It sounds like the catcher might be back as soon as Friday's game against the Nationals. He's been out since April 6 with a left knee bone bruise.

Frelick (knee) hopes to return to the Brewers lineup Friday in Tampa Bay, Jack Stern of BrewerFanatic.com reports.

Frelick is dealing with left knee inflammation and has been ruled out for the remainder of the Brewers' series against the Astros that runs through Wednesday. Milwaukee has a team off day Thursday, which will allow Frelick a fourth day of rest before he tries to return to action Friday for the start of the team's road trip.

Knack is scheduled to be recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City to pitch in Wednesday's game against the Marlins, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.

The right-hander joined the Dodgers as a member of the taxi squad Tuesday and will make his fourth MLB appearance of the season a day later. Manager Dave Roberts said a decision has yet to be made on whether Knack will start the contest or follow an opener. The 27-year-old has given up seven earned runs with a 7:6 K:BB across 8.2 big-league frames this year.

Betts is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game in Miami.

It's the first day off for Betts since March 29, when he was still regaining strength following an illness that caused him to lose nearly 20 pounds. Miguel Rojas will occupy shortstop and bat seventh for the Dodgers on Tuesday.

The Dodgers recalled Outman from Triple-A Oklahoma City, and he's starting in center field and batting eighth Tuesday against the Marlins.

The 27-year-old will join the Dodgers for the first time in 2025 since Teoscar Hernandez was placed on the injured list with an adductor strain. Outman should see regular playing time against right-handed pitching, especially since Tommy Edman (ankle) is also on the shelf for at least a few more days. Outman has enjoyed a strong start to the Triple-A season with an .830 OPS and eight homers in 32 games, but his swing-and-miss issues have been as present as ever with a 36.3 percent strikeout rate.

The Dodgers placed Hernandez on the 10-day injured list Tuesday with a Grade 1 left adductor strain, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Hernandez had to leave Monday's game in Miami with what was called hamstring tightness at the time, but it turns out it's his adductor/groin area that's the issue. The fact that the strain is only Grade 1 gives Hernandez a chance to avoid a long-term absence, but there is no timetable for his return. The Dodgers have Andy Pages in right field and James Outman in center field Tuesday versus the Marlins.

Dollander will not start Tuesday versus the Tigers after the game was postponed due to inclement weather.

The game will be made up as part of a doubleheader Thursday. Dollander will likely be simply pushed back a day to start Wednesday. However, he did exit his last outing with a split fingernail, so the Rockies might elect to give him extra rest.
