The Rockies added Toglia to their active roster Saturday ahead of their series against the Astros in Mexico City.

The Rockies were permitted to add an additional position player to their roster for their two-game series in Mexico City, so Toglia will come up from Albuquerque to provide additional flexibility at first base and in the outfield. The 25-year-old has slashed .106/.143/.362 across 49 big-league plate appearances.

Doval (2-0) allowed two hits and a walk while striking out one over a scoreless inning to earn the win Friday over the Pirates.

Doval walked the tightrope in the top of the ninth inning Friday, loading the bases with one out before inducing a double play to escape the jam while keeping the game scoreless. Patrick Bailey then delivered a walk-off three-run home run to give Doval and the Giants the win. Doval has kept runs off the board in seven of his nine appearances this season, earning four saves with a 3.12 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 13:5 K:BB over 8.2 innings.

The Nationals placed Gallo on the 10-day injured list Saturday with a sprained AC joint in his left shoulder, Bobby Blanco of MASNSports.com reports.

Gallo is slashing .122/.286/.311 across 91 plate appearances so far this season, but his shoulder injury will cause him to miss at least the next 10 days. Alex Call was recalled from Triple-A Rochester to replace Gallo as outfield depth.

Contreras went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Friday's 4-2 win over the Mets.

The Cardinals mustered just five hits, but Contreras and Alec Burleson provided a pair of homers to make it work. Contreras continues to play through a lingering hand injury, and while it's limited his ability to catch, he's been fine at the plate. Since the injury occurred April 3, he's gone 17-for-52 (.327) with two homers, six doubles and five RBI. For the season, he's slashing .296/.425/.563 with four homers, nine RBI, 12 runs scored, seven doubles and a stolen base over 21 contests. Contreras will continue to split time between catcher and designated hitter.

The Nationals recalled Call from Triple-A Rochester on Saturday.

Call failed to make the big-league roster out of spring training, but he will rejoin the Nationals after slashing .216/.306/.486 with six homers and 17 RBI across 85 Triple-A plate appearances. He'll provide additional depth to Washington's outfield unit while Joey Gallo (shoulder) is on the injured list.

Marte isn't in the Mets' lineup for Saturday's contest versus St. Louis, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

Marte went 1-for-4 during Friday's series opener, and he'll now get a rare day off Saturday versus Sonny Gray and the Cards. DJ Stewart will get the nod in right field and bat fifth.

Bader isn't in the Mets' lineup for Saturday's game against the Cardinals, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

Bader will get a day to regroup after going 0-for-10 across his last three games. His absence will allow Tyrone Taylor to start in center field and bat seventh.

The Marlins designated Tyler for assignment Saturday.

A week after being selected from Triple-A Jacksonville, Tyler will now lose his spot on Miami's 40-man roster. He made one appearance during his brief time in the majors, allowing one earned run in two innings during Friday's loss to Washington. Kent Emanuel was selected from Jacksonville in a corresponding move.

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

Emanuel appeared in one game for the Marlins in early April, allowing four earned runs across three innings out of the bullpen. He's been much more successful since being sent down to the minors, and he'll now get another chance to stick around in Miami as a multi-inning reliever. Kyle Tyler was designated for assignment in a corresponding move.

Outman isn't in the Dodgers' lineup for Saturday's game against Toronto.

The lefty-hitting Outman will take a seat Saturday with southpaw Yusei Kikuchi set to start on the mound for the Jays. Chris Taylor, Andy Pages and Teoscar Hernandez will start across Los Angeles' outfield while Outman watches from the dugout.
