The Blue Jays reinstated Sanchez (ankle) from the injured list Friday, Shi Davidi of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Sanchez has been out for over a month. The 28-year-old had been hitting the ball well before being sidelined, slashing .274/.316/.437 with seven homers and 29 RBI in 234 plate appearances this season. Toronto optioned Yohendrick Pinango to Triple-A Buffalo to make room for Sanchez on the active roster.

Manzardo is out of the lineup for Friday's matchup against Arizona.

Despite smacking a two-run homer and drawing two walks in the series finale against Cincinnati on Thursday, Manzardo will ride the bench for Friday's series opener against the Diamondbacks. Rhys Hoskins will take over at first base and bat cleanup for Cleveland.

The Mets recalled Curry from Triple-A Syracuse on Friday.

Curry has yielded two runs with a 4:2 K:BB over six innings during his brief time with the Mets this season. Though the righty hasn't made a start since late June at Syracuse, he could eat some innings Friday against the Marlins in what will be a bullpen game for the Mets.

The Mets called up Pintaro from Triple-A Syracuse on Friday.

With Cionel Perez (forearm) hitting the 15-day injured list, the Mets recalled Pintaro to take his place in the bullpen. Pintaro appeared in five games earlier this season, recording a 5.11 ERA, 0.73 WHIP and 12:3 K:BB through 12.1 innings.

The Mets placed Perez on the 15-day injured list Friday with a left forearm strain.

Perez has tossed 5.2 scoreless frames with a 9:0 K:BB over his last five appearances but will be shelved for at least the next couple weeks. With A.J. Minter having also been dealt, the Mets have added Jonathan Pintaro and Xzavion Curry to their bullpen.

Jordan is absent from the lineup for Friday's game in Toronto.

The Cardinals are going with Jose Fermin at third base in Friday's series opener. Jordan will get a breather after going 2-for-12 at the dish in the series versus the Cubs earlier this week.

The Rays placed McClanahan (back) on the 15-day IL on Friday due to a back injury, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

After leaving Thursday's start in the fourth inning with mid-back tightness, McClanahan will officially be shut down. President of baseball operations Erik Neander believes the injury is "pretty minor", and the left-hander could miss just two starts. On the campaign, the 29-year-old owns a 3.09 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and 91:35 K:BB in 99 innings. Tampa Bay is recalling Alex Cook from Triple-A Durham to take McClanahan's place on the active roster.

The Rays recalled Cook from Triple-A Durham Friday.

He'll fill the roster spot vacated by the injured Shane McClanahan (back). Cook has posted a 3.78 ERA and 37:12 K:BB over 33.1 innings with Durham this season. He was added to the 40-man roster last offseason and will be making his major-league debut when he gets into a game.

The Mets have scratched Peralta from Friday's scheduled start versus the Marlins as trade interest in the hurler heats up, Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports.

A trade does not appear imminent, but Peralta is a virtual lock to be dealt before Monday's deadline and the Mets don't want to risk him getting injured. The club has not yet revealed who will start Friday in Peralta's place. The Cubs, Rays, Phillies, Brewers and Atlanta are among the teams known to have trade interest in Peralta, who is a pending free agent.

The Athletics selected Ornelas' contract from Triple-A Las Vegas on Friday.

Ornelas recently signed a minor-league deal with the A's, and eight days later he will join the big-league club in Sacramento. The 26-year-old was most recently featured in the majors in 2025 with both Texas and Atlanta. With Joshua Kuroda-Grauer (groin) not due back for some time, Ornelas will provide depth in the middle infield for the Athletics.
