The Dodgers outrighted Irvin to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Aug. 6.

After being called up from Oklahoma City on July 31, Irvin made a six-inning relief appearance in a loss to the Red Sox before being dropped from the 40-man roster a day later. Rather than opting to become a free agent, the 32-year-old lefty has settled back into the rotation at Oklahoma City. He's given up two runs while striking out 11 batters over 11.2 innings in two starts since returning to Triple-A.

The Rockies placed Goodman on the 10-day injured list Tuesday, retroactive to Aug. 15, due to a left shoulder strain.

The 26-year-old hasn't seen the field since Wednesday due to shoulder inflammation and will be sidelined for at least another week after being diagnosed with a strain. Brett Sullivan has been operating as Colorado's primary backstop with Goodman banged up, and Braxton Fulford was called up Tuesday to fill the backup job.

Turang (knee) said he's in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mariners, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

The second baseman has been dealing with left knee discomfort and sat out the entirety of the four-game series against the Dodgers, but he's apparently good to go after Monday's team off day. Turang has a .582 OPS through 12 games in August but is batting .308 (8-for-26) with three doubles and six RBI over his past six contests.

Mack (shoulder) remains out of the lineup for Tuesday's game in Philadelphia.

Mack is battling a right shoulder injury and will miss a third consecutive start. The issue isn't considered serious, but with a team off day looming Thursday, the Marlins could play it safe and hold Mack out until Friday when the team returns home. Brian Navarreto will grab another start at catcher.

The Dodgers recalled Sheehan from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Tuesday, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

Sheehan will be used in relief for the time being, giving some length to an overworked Dodgers bullpen. The right-hander struck out eight over 5.2 scoreless innings in his last start for Oklahoma City. Sheehan was sent down by the Dodgers earlier this month after collecting a 5.29 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 108:30 K:BB across 95.1 innings at the big-league level.

Lee is not in the lineup for Tuesday's contest in Cleveland.

Lee is in a 5-for-33 rut at the plate, so he will receive a day off in order to regroup. Victor Bericoto will slot into right field for the Giants in the series opener.

Arenado (intercostal) remains out of the lineup for Tuesday's game in Boston.

Arenado is dealing with a minor left intercostal injury and will miss a second straight start. The Diamondbacks are optimistic he will be able to avoid the injured list, but with a team off day looming Thursday, it's possible Arenado will be held out until the club returns home Friday. Jose Fernandez will occupy third base for Arizona on Tuesday.

Adames (back) remains out of the lineup for Tuesday's game in Cleveland.

Adames has not played since injuring his back last Wednesday. The veteran shortstop has been cleared for full baseball activities, per Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area, but will miss a fourth consecutive start Tuesday. Christian Koss will again fill in at shortstop for Adames.

The Pirates optioned Mattson to Triple-A Indianapolis on Tuesday, Jason Mackey of MLB.com reports.

Mattson was needed for two innings and 41 pitches in Monday's loss to the Tigers, so he wasn't going to be available for a day or two. Antwone Kelly will absorb Mattson's spot on the roster and in the bullpen.

The Pirates recalled Kelly from Triple-A Indianapolis on Tuesday, Danny Demilio of PittsburghBaseballNow.com reports.

It's the fourth stint in the majors this season for Kelly, with his three prior stays all lasting two days or fewer. The right-hander has struggled in his first three MLB appearances, surrendering five earned runs with a 4:4 K:BB over 7.1 innings.
