Atlanta re-signed Azocar to a minor-league contract Tuesday, Lindsay Crosby of BravesToday.com reports.

For the second time this month, Azocar has re-signed with Atlanta after having been removed from its 40-man roster. Azocar is 5-for-15 at the dish during his brief time with the big club this season. He'll provide experienced outfield depth at Triple-A Gwinnett.

The Mariners optioned Davila to Triple-A Tacoma on Tuesday.

Davila hasn't allowed a run in his first 7.1 big-league innings, but a 4:6 K:BB over that stretch points to trouble down the road. The 27-year-old is heading out in order to free roster space for the return of Gabe Speier (shoulder).

The Mariners activated Speier (shoulder) from the 15-day injured list Tuesday.

Speier has been out for all of May with left shoulder inflammation, but he's been cleared to rejoin the Mariners' bullpen after making a couple rehab appearances. Nick Davila has been optioned to Triple-A Tacoma to free a spot on the active roster for Speier's return.

Jump will be called up from Triple-A Las Vegas to make his major-league debut Tuesday with a start against the Mariners, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

Reports had surfaced earlier Tuesday indicating that Jump was on his way to the big leagues, and now there's a specific date attached to his debut. Tuesday's previously scheduled starter, Luis Severino, will be pushed back as a result of Jump's addition to the rotation. Jump has collected a 4.50 ERA and 56:20 K:BB over 38 innings with Las Vegas this season and has spun 11 shutout frames with a 15:1 K:BB in his last two starts.

Legumina allowed two hits and no walks in two scoreless innings of relief Monday against the Orioles. He struck out two.

After posting a 4.63 ERA and 1.54 WHIP over 11.2 innings for the Mariners, the 28-year-old right-hander has been more effective since being acquired by the Rays in late April. Over 10 frames since joining Tampa Bay's bullpen, Legumina has a 1.80 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 6:3 K:BB with one hold, while working mostly as a middle reliever.

The Guardians selected Dion's contract from Triple-A Columbus on Tuesday.

Dion has transitioned into a full-time reliever in 2026, and while his ERA at Columbus is a tad bloated at 4.50, he's put up an impressive 36:5 K:BB over 26 innings. The left-hander will be making his major-league debut when/if he gets into a game.

The Guardians optioned Allen to Triple-A Columbus on Tuesday.

Allen saved the Guardians' bullpen by recording seven strikeouts and allowing just two unearned runs allowed over four innings Monday versus the Nationals. He threw 83 pitches in the appearance, so Allen is being replaced by a fresh bullpen arm in Will Dion.

Devers went 1-for-3 with a double and two RBI in Monday's 6-2 loss to Arizona. He was also hit by a pitch.

Devers hit a two-run double in the fourth inning, giving the Giants a brief 2-1 lead. The veteran infielder has recorded at least one hit in five of the last six games, racking up eight RBI, four doubles, two long balls and an additional run scored over 25 plate appearances during that span. He's had a productive month, slashing .302/.351/.593 with 16 RBI, 13 runs scored, 10 doubles and five home runs across 94 plate appearances in 23 games in May.

Brubaker threw three scoreless relief innings in Monday's 6-2 loss to Arizona, allowing one hit and one walk while striking out one.

Brubaker entered in the seventh inning and turned in a productive performance while tossing 23 of his 35 pitches for strikes. He's logged three scoreless innings in back-to-back appearances, issuing three walks over those two games. The right-hander now owns a 2.96 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and 19:15 K:BB across 27.1 innings in 18 outings so far this season.

Single-A Fresno placed Holliday (foot) on its 7-day injured list Sunday.

Holliday hasn't played in nearly a week due to a left foot injury, and the decision was finally made to put him on the IL. The Rockies haven't provided word on a specific diagnosis for Holliday, making it uncertain how much time the top prospect will miss. Holliday has impressed so far in his first full professional season, slashing .262/.395/.557 with nine home runs in 33 games with Fresno, though he's struck out at a 28.3 percent clip.
