The Mets selected Severino's contract from Triple-A Syracuse and optioned him to Syracuse on Tuesday.

Severino likely had an opt-out clause in his minor-league contract, and the Mets have added him to the 40-man roster to prevent him from exercising it. He's posted a 1.04 ERA and 18:8 K:BB over 17.1 innings with Syracuse this season and could get a look the next time the Mets need a left-handed reliever.

Atlanta manager Walt Weiss said that Baldwin (oblique) returned to Atlanta on Tuesday to undergo an MRI, Chad Bishop of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Baldwin was placed on the 10-day injured list earlier Tuesday with a right oblique strain, but he and the club won't know how severe the strain is until the imaging comes back. That information should be available later Tuesday or Wednesday, and at that point a timetable for Baldwin should come into focus. With Baldwin and Sean Murphy (finger) shelved, Atlanta is using a combination of Sandy Leon and Chadwick Tromp at catcher.

The White Sox released Bido on Tuesday.

Bido was outrighted to Triple-A Charlotte last week after clearing waivers, but he never wound up pitching for the affiliate and is now pursuing a contract with a Japanese team, per Brooke Fletcher of Chicago Sports Network. The veteran swingman has posted a 6.27 ERA and 11:10 K:BB over 18.2 innings at the major-league level in 2026.

Miller will start Tuesday's game against the White Sox and will be piggybacked by Luis Castillo out of the bullpen, Adam Jude of The Seattle Times reports.

Miller and Castillo both made their own starts last week following the former's return from the injured list, but the two will work in tandem Tuesday while the Mariners condense their rotation from six to five. Mariners manager Dan Wilson hasn't provided an indication of how the innings will break down between the two pitchers, but after covering 5.1 frames in Houston last Wednesday in his 2026 big-league debut, Miller could work deep enough into his start against Chicago to qualify for a win. The Mariners will likely see how both Miller and Castillo fare Tuesday before determining whether to keep the piggyback arrangement in place the next time the fifth spot in the rotation comes up.

Schuemann went 1-for-2 with two walks, a run and two stolen bases in a 7-6 win over Toronto on Monday.

Schuemann got the start at third base before shifting over to left field late in the game. He made the most of the opportunity, reaching three times and swiping his first two bags of the campaign. Schuemann ranks in the 64th percentile in sprint speed leaguewide, but he had been 0-for-2 in theft attempts coming into Monday. He holds a fine .286/.474/.429 slash line across 19 plate appearances on the campaign but isn't much of a fantasy asset since he plays so sparingly -- Monday marked just his second start over New York's past six contests.

Acuna will start at designated hitter and bat leadoff in Tuesday's game versus the Marlins.

Acuna was activated from the injured list ahead of Monday's series opener but did not play in the contest. He's back in there Tuesday and could be limited to DH duty for a bit as he returns from a hamstring strain. Jose Azocar is in right field for Atlanta on Tuesday.

Hicks is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against Atlanta.

The 26-year-old started against three of the previous four lefties the Marlins have faced but finds himself on the bench Tuesday versus Atlanta southpaw Martin Perez. Hicks has an .850 OPS for the season but is batting .194/.293/.222 across his past 10 games. Christopher Morel is starting at first base and batting cleanup Tuesday for Miami.

Atlanta manager Walt Weiss said May 13 that Waldrep (elbow) has felt fine since he began throwing bullpen sessions earlier in the month, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

Though Waldrep has made good progress in his recovery from the arthroscopic procedure he underwent Feb. 23 to remove loose bodies from his right elbow, Weiss noted that the 24-year-old hurler isn't far along enough in his throwing program for Atlanta to establish a definitive timeline for his return. A clearer target date for Waldrep should become available once he advances to facing hitters. After he reaches that step, Waldrep will then head out on what's expected to be a lengthy minor-league rehab assignment before he gets activated from the 15-day injured list.

The Twins recalled Adams from Triple-A St. Paul on Tuesday.

The right-hander spent a few days with the Twins earlier this month before returning to St. Paul, and he's now back in the big leagues ahead of Tuesday's matchup with the Astros. Adams has surrendered three earned runs with a 5:2 K:BB over 3.2 frames in the majors this year.

The Twins transferred Acton (shoulder) to the 60-day injured list Tuesday.

The Twins needed to free up a spot on their 40-man roster. Acton has been shelved since late April with a right shoulder strain and now won't be eligible to return until late June.
