The Mets recalled Gerber from Triple-A Syracuse on Monday.

Gerber has fared well in his opportunities in the majors this season, holding the opposition to just one run with a 6:1 K:BB over five innings. He will likely be utilized in a middle-relief role.

The Mets optioned Myers to Triple-A Syracuse on Monday.

Myers was touched up for three runs on six hits over three relief innings in Sunday's loss to the Phillies, and he's collected an uninspiring 6.21 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 32:12 K:BB in 42 innings for the Mets this season. Joey Gerber was called up from Triple-A to replace Myers in the bullpen and on the 26-man active roster.

The Nationals outrighted Lara to Double-A Harrisburg on Monday.

He's no longer on the 40-man roster, but Lara will remain in the organization after passing through waivers unclaimed. The hard-throwing righty holds a 10.13 ERA and 22:31 K:BB across 16 frames at the Double-A level in 2026.

The Nationals recalled Cornelio from Triple-A Rochester on Monday.

Cornelio has been shaky in three appearances for the Nationals this season, logging a 6.48 ERA and 4:9 K:BB over 8.1 innings. Though most of the 26-year-old's pro experience is as a starting pitcher, he pitched in a relief role with Rochester after being sent down by the Nationals earlier this month, and he appears ticketed for the bullpen during this stint in the majors.

Ingle is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Rangers.

Ingle will head to the bench for the first time since he was called up from Triple-A Columbus on Friday. While making two starts at designated hitter and one in left field during the Guardians' weekend series versus Seattle, Ingle went 1-for-7 with three walks, two RBI and one run.

The Nationals recalled Palmquist from Triple-A Rochester on Monday.

He could fill the role of long reliever vacated by Mitchell Parker (elbow), who landed on the 15-day injured list Monday. Palmquist permitted one earned run over 3.1 innings last week in his lone appearance for the Nationals.

The Nationals placed Lovelady on the 15-day injured list Monday with a left triceps strain.

Lovelady retired the only batter he faced during an appearance Sunday versus the Orioles, but he apparently came out of the outing with an injury. The lefty reliever has filled a variety of roles for the Nationals this season from opener to occasional closer, but he'll now been shelved at least through the All-Star break.

Manzardo is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Rangers.

Rhys Hoskins will draw the start at first base while southpaw Tyler Alexander opens the game for Texas, but the left-handed-hitting Manzardo could replace Hoskins at some point later in the contest once the Rangers send a right-hander to the bump. Manzardo had started each of the Guardians' last 12 games but went just 8-for-42 (.190 average) with 15 strikeouts during that stretch.

The Nationals placed Parker on the 15-day injured list Monday with left elbow inflammation.

Parker was forced from an appearance Sunday versus the Orioles due to the injury. While the injury designation is listed as inflammation, it's not clear whether Parker might still need to undergo testing to rule out a more serious injury. The southpaw has collected a 6.58 ERA and 34:13 K:BB over 39.2 innings out of the Washington bullpen this season.

Arias will start at third base and bat eighth in Monday's game against the Rangers.

After returning to the active roster June 14 following an extended stint on the injured list, Arias got off to a rough start while filling a utility role for the Guardians, slashing just .182/.182/.227 with 13 strikeouts in seven games. With Daniel Schneemann having endured an even longer dry spell at the plate, the Guardians appear to have turned third base over to Arias while the club awaits the return of Jose Ramirez (hand) from the injured list. Arias will draw a third consecutive start after going 2-for-5 with a stolen base and a run over the final two games of the Guardians' weekend series versus the Mariners.
