The Yankees optioned Schuemann to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre after Saturday's game against Toronto.

Schuemann was brought up from Triple-A on Friday to make up for the loss of Ryan McMahon (thumb) but will now head back to the minors in preparation for Cody Bellinger's (hamstring) return from the IL on Sunday. Schuemann has slashed .194/.333/.361 across 87 plate appearances in the big leagues this season and will likely spend most of what's left of the year with the RailRiders.

The Angels placed Meckler on the 7-day concussion IL, retroactive to Aug. 21, on Saturday.

Meckler was hit on the head by a pitch Thursday and didn't play Friday. He's been diagnosed with a concussion and will have to clear MLB's concussion protocol before being able to return to action. The Angels recalled Christian Moore and Gustavo Campero from Triple-A Salt Lake to provide outfield/infield depth with both Meckler and Nolan Schanuel (side, 10-day IL) sidelined for at least the short term.

The Angels placed Schanuel on the 10-day IL, retroactive to Aug. 21, due to a right intercostal muscle strain Saturday.

Schanuel existed Thursday's game against Houston due to side soreness and didn't play Friday. He's since been diagnosed with an intercostal muscle strain and will be sidelined for at least 10 days. The Angels recalled both Christian Moore and Gustavo Campero from Triple-A Salt Lake while also placing outfielder Wade Meckler on the 7-day concussion IL in a series of roster moves. With Schanuel sidelined, Vaughn Grissom is logging a second straight start at first base Saturday and could see steady work at that position for the time being.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Saturday that Wrobleski (forearm) will serve as a multi-inning reliever once he returns from the 15-day injured list, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Wrobleski had been in the midst of a career-best season before hitting the shelf last weekend due to left forearm inflammation, logging a 3.56 ERA and 1.10 WHIP across 126.1 innings. Despite his strong numbers as a starter, the 26-year-old won't be able to hang on to his spot in the rotation once Tyler Glasnow (back) comes off the 60-day injured list Tuesday and when Shohei Ohtani (knee/triceps) is ready to resume pitching in games soon thereafter. Wrobleski will continue to contribute to the Dodgers as a lefty reliever capable of handling 2-to-3 innings, but he likely won't make another start in 2026 unless the team opts for a six-man rotation down the stretch or another injury strikes one of Los Angeles' starters.

The Angels recalled Campero from Triple-A Salt Lake on Saturday.

Campero began the season in the minors and missed over a month of action due to a fractured right hand. He returned to the field in late July and is now getting a look with the big-league club after Wade Meckler landed on the 7-day concussion IL. Campero has thrived across three major-league levels this season, slashing .313/.389/.914 with 13 homers, 54 RBI and 12 steals over 69 contests, though he mostly struggled during his time with the big-league club last year, posting a .618 OPS with three home runs, eight RBI and four stolen bases across 66 plate appearances. Campero is starting in left field and batting sixth against Texas on Saturday, per Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register.

The Angels recalled Moore from Triple-A Salt Lake on Saturday.

Outfielder Gustavo Campero was also recalled from Salt Lake, while Nolan Schanuel (side) was placed on the 10-day IL and Wade Meckler landed on the 7-day concussion IL. This will be Moore's second big-league stint this season; in his first call-up during the second half of June, he slashed .200/.227/.200 with a 1:11 BB:K over 22 plate appearances. Moore played mostly in left field at that time, but he's starting at second base and batting eighth Saturday, per Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register.

Manager Dave Roberts said Saturday that Diaz (neck) will move into a lower-leverage role once he returns from the injured list, Bill Plunkett of The Orange County Register reports.

Diaz has given up 18 earned runs in just 13.2 innings with the Dodgers this season, so the team will plan to give him what Roberts termed as a "softer landing" once he's healthy with the goal of eventually having him reclaim the closer's role. The 32-year-old righty landed on the injured list Tuesday due to neck inflammation, but he threw a bullpen session Saturday and is expected to return around the time he's eligible to be activated Sept. 2. Tanner Scott should operate as the Dodgers' primary ninth-inning option until Diaz is healthy and the team is confident he's ready for higher-leverage work.

Cholowsky is battling right wrist soreness and is being shut down for the remainder of the campaign, James Fegan of SoxMachine.com reports.

Cholowsky last logged game action Aug. 15 and has subsequently been sidelined by the wrist issue. The White Sox are opting to give him time to heal, thus concluding his first professional campaign. After being taken first overall in the 2026 First-Year Player Draft, Cholowsky played in nine games for High-A Winston-Salem, slashing .167/.326/.333 with one home run, three doubles, four runs, 10 RBI, three stolen bases and a 7:9 BB:K.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said that Glasnow (back) will return from the 60-day injured list to start Tuesday's game against Atlanta, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

Glasnow has been out since May 8 due to lower-back spasms, but he's performed tremendously well during his four minor-league rehab starts, allowing just two runs on three hits and four walks while striking out 20 batters over 13.2 innings. He built up to 77 pitches during his most recent outing at Triple-A, so he likely won't be operating under a heavy workload restriction while he makes his first MLB start in nearly four months. He will return to face an Atlanta lineup that's posted just a .590 OPS across its last 10 games.

Carlson (skin infection) won't play again in 2026, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.

Carlson fractured his thumb in late May but was able to return less than two months later. However, he's now dealing with a skin infection and is slated to miss the remainder of the campaign. The 20-year-old saw the bulk of his action with Single-A Kannapolis and slashed .256/.388/.338 with no homers, 36 runs, 20 RBI, 13 stolen bases and a 41:58 BB:K over 57 games.
