  • Braves' Mike Yastrzemski: Activated from injured list

    Atlanta activated Yastrzemski (elbow) from the 10-day injured list Tuesday.

    Yastrzemski required just a minimum 10-day absence as he dealt with left elbow inflammation. He skipped a rehab assignment and will receive regular reps in the outfield for Atlanta against right-handed pitching.

  • Joel Kuhnel RP | SF

    Brewers' Joel Kuhnel: Throwing bullpen session

    Kuhnel (shoulder) is slated to throw a bullpen session Tuesday, Jack Stern of BrewerFanatic.com reports.

    Kuhnel has missed the past two-plus weeks with right rotator cuff tendinopathy but is ready to test out the injury with some mound work. Though he's eligible for activation now, Kuhnel could require a rehab assignment before return to the active roster.

  • Sal Frelick RF | MIL

    Brewers' Sal Frelick: Undergoing imaging Tuesday

    Frelick will undergo an arthrogram Tuesday to get a diagnosis on his injured right shoulder, Jack Stern of BrewerFanatic.com reports.

    Frelick landed on the 10-day injured list this past weekend with what the Brewers described as a shoulder strain, but the club hopes the arthrogram will provide a more specific diagnosis. Once the results of the exam are in, more will be known about a timeline for Frelick to return to the active roster.

  • Bubba Chandler SP | PIT

    Pirates' Bubba Chandler: Tuesday's game postponed

    Chandler won't pitch as scheduled Tuesday against the Yankees since the game was postponed due to a forecast of inclement weather, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.

    The 23-year-old's first start coming out of the All-Star break will have to wait at least one more day, with Tuesday's game being made up via a doubleheader Wednesday. Chandler, who has a 4.77 ERA, 1.45 WHIP and 85:55 K:BB over 94.1 innings this season, should start one of those contests in the twin bill.

  • Jack Anderson RP | MIN

    Twins' Jack Anderson: Summoned from minors

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

    Anderson was a waiver claim of the Twins earlier this month and will now get his first opportunity in the majors with his new organization. The right-hander is expected to pitch during Tuesday's game versus the Guardians, likely following Kendry Rojas.

  • Will Warren SP | NYY

    Yankees' Will Warren: Game rained out Tuesday

    Warren won't pitch as scheduled Tuesday against the Pirates since the game was postponed due to a forecast of inclement weather, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.

    The right-hander was scheduled to make his first start of the second half Tuesday but will instead get some extra rest. The game is being made up via a doubleheader Wednesday, with Warren likely to pitch in one of those contests. He headed into the All-Star break with a 4.03 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and 96:33 K:BB across 98.1 innings (19 starts).

  • Edgar Quero C | CHW

    White Sox's Edgar Quero: Recalled from Triple-A

    The White Sox recalled Quero from Triple-A Charlotte on Tuesday.

    He's getting another opportunity following the injury to Kyle Teel (ankle). Quero slashed just .187/.253/.233 earlier this season for the White Sox and hit only .230/.299/.295 at Charlotte, so it's difficult to summon much confidence he'll right the ship offensively. However, he should get an opportunity to at least share the catching job with Drew Romo while Teel is shelved.

  • Kyle Harrison SP | MIL

    Brewers' Kyle Harrison: Nearing rehab assignment

    Harrison (elbow) is scheduled to throw live batting practice Saturday and begin a rehab assignment July 31, Hunter Baumgardt of Fox Sports 920 Milwaukee reports.

    Harrison has been on the injured list since just before the All-Star break due to elbow soreness, so he may only need one rehab start in the minors before re-entering Milwaukee's rotation. Assuming the left-hander avoids any setbacks, he could be back on the big-league mound during the first week of August.

  • Brewers' Jacob Misiorowski: Not making another start this week

    Misiorowski is not listed among the Brewers' probable pitchers for this weekend's series at home against the Rockies, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

    Misiorowski returned from a nearly two-week absence with arm fatigue on Monday versus the Mets, allowing just one unearned run over four innings and getting lifted after just 65 pitches. The Brewers plan to closely monitor Misiorowski's workload in the second half, as he is just 26.1 innings shy of last year's total from the minors, majors and postseason combined. Manager Pat Murphy has indicated the team will "lean more towards" pulling Misiorowski early from outings rather than skipping them, per Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. However, the team will also buy the hurler extra rest whenever possible, which it will do this weekend in moving Brandon Sproat ahead of Misiorowski to start Sunday. Misiorowski's next outing could come as soon as Monday in San Francisco.

  • Giants' Argenis Cayama: Rehabbing in Arizona

    Single-A San Jose sent Cayama (back spasms) on a rehab assignment in the Arizona Complex League on July 11.

    Per Josh Norris of Baseball America, Cayama was placed on the injured list at Single-A on June 5 due to back spasms. Still just 19, the 6-foot Cayama has a 4.17 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 50:8 K:BB in 41 innings, primarily in the Cal League.
