Zach Brzykcy RP | MIA
Marlins' Zach Brzykcy: Rejoins big club
The Marlins recalled Brzykcy from Triple-A Jacksonville on Tuesday.
The right-hander was optioned to Jacksonville on Friday but will quickly return to the big leagues since Anthony Bender (shin) was placed on the injured list. Bryzkcy hasn't pitched in the majors this season across his two short stints with the Marlins. He has a 3.86 ERA, 1.46 WHIP and 32:19 K:BB across 30.1 innings at Triple-A.

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. 1B | TOR
Blue Jays' Vladimir Guerrero: Scratched Tuesday
Guerrero was scratched from the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Mets due to back tightness.
The star first baseman departed Friday's contest against the Cubs due to a back issue, but he didn't miss any additional time until being scratched from Tuesday's starting nine. Guerrero should be considered day-to-day as he continues to be evaluated. Sean Keys will shift to first base for Toronto.

Anthony Bender RP | MIA
Marlins' Anthony Bender: Placed on injured list
The Marlins placed Bender on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with a right shin stress reaction.
Bender has given up just one earned run while punching out 16 batters in 10.2 innings this month, but the Marlins will now be without his services through the All-Star break following his move to the injured list. Zach Brzykcy will come up from Triple-A to fill the opening in Miami's bullpen; meanwhile, Michael Petersen, John King and Calvin Faucher are likely to receive an uptick in high-leverage opportunities.

Jordan Lawlar CF | ARI
Diamondbacks' Jordan Lawlar: Facing 4-to-6-week absence
Manager Torey Lovullo said June 20 that Lawlar will receive further imaging on his strained right hamstring during the All-Star break to gauge his healing, Steve Gilbert MLB.com reports.
Lawlar appears to be facing a 4-to-6-week recovery timeline after he was removed from a June 19 win over the Twins when he strained the hamstring while trying to beat out a bunt single. The 23-year-old had already been shelved for just over two months earlier this season due to a fractured wrist, so the hamstring injury represents yet another major setback on the health front. Lawlar had settled in as the Diamondbacks' everyday center field prior to getting hurt, but Tommy Troy has since stepped in as the main replacement at the position.

Graham Pauley 3B | MIA
Marlins' Graham Pauley: Sent down to Jacksonville
The Marlins optioned Pauley to Triple-A Jacksonville on Tuesday.
Pauley went 2-for-6 with two doubles, two RBI and a run scored after rejoining the Marlins on Friday, but he'll now be pushed back to the minors to make room for Liam Hicks' (back) return from the injured list. Javier Sanoja figures to receive the majority of starts at third base now that Pauley is back in Jacksonville.

Mariners' Dominic Canzone: Idle Tuesday
Canzone is not in the lineup versus Angels on Tuesday.
Canzone is absent from the lineup after starting in Monday's 6-2 win against the Angels, in which he went 1-for-4 with a home run. Randy Arozarena has the start as the designated hitter while Victor Robles gets the start in left field Tuesday.
