The Phillies claimed Cuas off waivers from Toronto and optioned him to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Saturday, Scott Lauber of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Cuas was DFA'd by the Blue Jays on Thursday after allowing three runs in three innings spanning four appearances. The 30-year-old will get a fresh start with the Phillies, though he'll start out in the minors at Lehigh Valley.

The Marlins placed Meyer on the 15-day injured list Saturday with right shoulder bursitis.

Meyer was originally slated to make his next start Sunday against Philadelphia. However, his move to the IL will keep him sidelined for multiple turns through the rotation, meaning the 25-year-old righty likely only has one or two starts left in the season, even in a best-case scenario. The Marlins have yet to name a replacement for Meyer in their starting rotation.

The Marlins placed Hill on the 10-day injured list Saturday with a left shoulder impingement.

Hill hasn't registered a plate appearance since last Sunday, and he's now due to miss at least another eight days as he recovers from his shoulder injury. Javier Sanoja was called up from Triple-A Jacksonville in a corresponding move and may have an opportunity to work as Miami's fourth outfielder while Hill is out.

Bauers is out of the lineup for Saturday's game against the Rockies.

Left-hander Ty Blach is taking the mound for Colorado, forcing the lefty-hitting Bauers to the bench. In his place, Gary Sanchez will DH and bat fourth.

The Marlins selected Sanoja's contract from Triple-A Jacksonville on Saturday.

Since earning a promotion to Triple-A in late April, Sanoja has slashed .294/.356/.438 with six homers and 59 RBI across 492 plate appearances with the Jumbo Shrimp. The 22-year-old's performance has earned him his first MLB call-up, and his ability to play in both the infield and outfield will help as he attempts to work his way into the starting lineup.

The Marlins selected Bermudez's contract from Triple-A Jacksonville on Saturday.

Just four days after being sent outright to Jacksonville, Bermudez will now rejoin the active roster to give the Marlins an additional bullpen arm capable of handling multiple innings. The 28-year-old southpaw allowed two earned runs in 3.2 innings during his MLB debut Aug. 27 and will presumably be used in long relief again while with the Marlins. Austin Kitchen was designated for assignment in a corresponding move.

The Marlins recalled Bachar from Triple-A Jacksonville on Saturday.

Bachar was sent to Triple-A after being claimed off waivers from San Diego on Tuesday, and he'll now join the big-league squad after just four days with his new organization. The 29-year-old righty owns a 3.86 ERA and 1.46 WHIP across 74.2 innings in the minors this season, and he'll be making his MLB debut whenever he gets into a game.

The Marlins recalled Soriano from Triple-A Jacksonville on Saturday.

Soriano owns a 6.26 ERA and 1.39 WHIP through 23 innings in the majors this season, but he'll be promoted nonetheless to give the Fish another fresh arm to use out of the bullpen. He'll most likely be used in low-leverage situations while with Miami.

The Marlins reinstated Bender (shoulder) from the 15-day injured list Saturday.

Bender has been on the shelf since mid-August due to a right shoulder impingement, but he's been cleared to return to Miami's bullpen after allowing one run in three innings during a rehab assignment with Triple-A Jacksonville. The 29-year-old holds a 4.00 ERA and 1.27 WHIP through 45 innings in the majors, though a lack of depth in the Marlins' bullpen has allowed him to work in several high-leverage situations.

Realmuto (knee) isn't in the lineup Saturday against the Marlins.

Realmuto was taken out of Friday's contest after he fouled a ball off his left knee in the second inning. The team hasn't indicated that the 33-year-old will need to spend time on the injured list, though the issue is apparently severe enough to warrant a day off Saturday. Garrett Stubbs will catch for starting pitcher Aaron Nola.
