Guardians' Zak Kent: Summoned from Triple-A
The Guardians recalled Kent from Triple-A Columbus on Sunday.
Kent will be up with the Guardians for the sixth time this season, though he made just four relief appearances over his previous five stints in the majors and gave up five earned runs across 7.1 innings. He'll likely see most of his usage in lower-leverage spots during the final month of the season.

Guardians' George Valera: Gets September call-up
The Guardians selected Valera's contract from Triple-A Columbus on Monday.
He will start at designated hitter and bat seventh for his big-league debut Monday in Fenway Park against righty Brayan Bello. Valera was a premium dynasty prospect five or six years ago, but injuries greatly affected his development, and then his hit tool stalled out in the upper levels. Still just 24, the lefty-hitting outfielder slashed .255/.346/.457 with three home runs and a 25.2 percent strikeout rate in 28 games at Triple-A this season after returning from 2024 patellar tendon surgery.

Noah Davis SP | PIT
Twins' Noah Davis: Rejoins big-league bullpen
The Twins recalled Davis from Triple-A St. Paul on Monday.
Davis has made seven appearances in the majors this season between the Dodgers and Twins, getting bludgeoned for 19 runs (18 earned) over nine innings. He'll provide Minnesota with a fresh bullpen arm but is unlikely to be used in high-leverage spots.

Will Wilson SS | SEA
Guardians' Will Wilson: Returns to Triple-A
The Guardians optioned Wilson to Triple-A Columbus on Monday.
Wilson's latest stint in the big leagues lasted one week, with the infielder appearing in two games and going 3-for-6 with an RBI and a run. He'll be replaced on the 28-man active roster by outfielder George Valera, who was called up from Triple-A.

Jhonkensy Noel OF | BAL
Guardians' Jhonkensy Noel: Moves up from Triple-A
The Guardians recalled Noel from Triple-A Columbus on Monday.
Noel had a rough sophomore showing in the majors to start the season, hitting .140 with a 35:3 K:BB in 111 plate appearances before getting demoted in early June. He got a brief cup of coffee in July but has spent the bulk of the summer at Triple-A, slashing .273/.337/.493 with 12 home runs and a 26.6 percent strikeout rate in 61 games. The righty-hitting slugger should play primarily against southpaws down the stretch.

Nationals' Andrew Alvarez: Added to roster ahead of debut
The Nationals selected Alvarez's contract from Triple-A Rochester on Monday.
Alvarez is set to make his major-league debut Monday with a start at home against the Marlins, taking the rotation spot of the injured MacKenzie Gore (shoulder). The left-handed Alvarez held a 4.10 ERA and 114:52 K:BB over 123 innings covering 25 starts for Rochester this season. He should receive multiple turns in the rotation while Gore is shelved.

Justin Hagenman RP | NYM
Mets' Justin Hagenman: Moves up from Triple-A
The Mets recalled Hagenman from Triple-A Syracuse on Monday.
Hagenman will provide the New York bullpen with another right-handed option who's capable of covering multiple innings, but his usage will likely be limited to lower-leverage spots. Through seven appearances (one start) with the Mets this season, Hagenman has submitted a 3.26 ERA, 0.93 WHIP and 20:2 K:BB over 19.1 innings.
