The Brewers recalled Yoho from Triple-A Nashville on Monday.

Yoho came into the season as one of baseball's top reliever prospects, but his control has deserted him in the majors. He has an 8.22 ERA and 9:5 BB:K in 7.2 innings across three separate stints with the Brewers in 2025. Yoho has been as advertised at Triple-A, however, logging a 1.04 ERA, 1.02 WHIP, 55 strikeouts and seven saves in 43.1 innings across 39 appearances. Yoho should work in low-leverage situations as he rejoins Milwaukee, at least initially.

The Mariners released Solano on Monday.

After playing regularly against left-handed pitching for most of the first half of the season, Solano saw his at-bats fall by the wayside once the Mariners acquired Josh Naylor from the Diamondbacks on July 24 and installed him as their everyday first baseman. Since Naylor's debut, Solano has started just three times and appeared in only five games. The Mariners opted to cut him loose to make room on the roster for Leo Rivas, who brings more defensive flexibility to the table.

Moncada is not in the lineup for Monday's game in Houston, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

Moncada started each of the first three games of the series but will take a seat in Monday's finale. Oswald Peraza will handle third base and bat second for the Halos.

Ward (forehead) is not in the lineup for Monday's contest in Houston, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

Matthew Lugo will start in left field and bat seventh for the Angels on Monday.

The Mariners designated Lao for assignment Monday.

Lao was booted from the 40-man roster in order to make room for right-hander Luke Jackson, whose contract was selected from Triple-A Tacoma. The 26-year-old Lao appeared in two games out of the bullpen for Seattle this season, registering an 8.10 ERA, 2.10 WHIP and 4:1 K:BB across 3.1 innings.

The Tigers are expected to recall Gipson-Long from Triple-A Toledo ahead of Tuesday's game against the Mets, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.

With the active roster expanding from 26 to 28 men Monday, Detroit recalled right-hander Chase Lee and outfielder Justyn-Henry Malloy from Triple-A to fill the two openings, but the Tigers will make another move Tuesday to facilitate Gipson-Long's call-up. The Tigers don't have a starter listed for Tuesday, so Gipson-Long appears likely to begin that game on the mound or serve as a bulk reliever. The right-hander has previously made six appearances (two starts) for the Tigers this season, logging a 4.32 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 20:4 K:BB in 25 innings.

The Angels transferred Fulmer (elbow) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Monday.

Fulmer was diagnosed with a right elbow strain last week and is now officially out for the rest of the season. The 31-year-old posted a 5.83 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 26:11 K:BB over 29.1 innings across 13 appearances with the Angels and will be a non-tender candidate this offseason.

Kurtz (oblique) is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Cardinals.
