    • Trevor Richards goes two scoreless as opener
      Trevor Richards tossed 2 1/3 scoreless innings with one strikeout in a no-decision against the Guardians on Saturday.

      Advice: Richards took the mound as the opener in Saturday’s contest against the Guardians. He tossed a scoreless first inning, working around a leadoff single in the second, and recorded the first out in the third before he was replaced at 31 pitches. The 31-year-old right-hander has been excellent out of the bullpen for Toronto, posting a 3.09 ERA, 0.89 WHIP, and a 34/15 K/BB ratio across 35 innings. Rotoworld Today, 2:37 pm
       
    • Rehab assignment starting Sunday
      Martin (personal) will begin his rehab assignment with Triple-A Worcester on Sunday, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: After initially being expected to start his rehab assignment Saturday, Martin will actually get going with Worcester on Sunday. The right-hander has been working his way back from a stretch of heightened anxiety, missing the last month of action. Rotowire.com Today, 1:58 pm
       
    • Andre Pallante gives up two runs in brief outing
      Andre Pallante was charged with two runs (one earned) over 3 1/3 innings on Saturday in a loss to the Cubs.

      Advice: Pallante turned in a perfect opening frame before engineering a masterful escape after giving up back-to-back hits to open the second inning. He got into trouble in the fourth inning after giving up consecutive hits to open the frame and was lifted for reliever Chris Roycroft after striking out Ian Happ and wound up being charged with a pair of runs following his departure. He struck out four and didn’t hand out a free pass. The 25-year-old righty figures to continue operating in a swingman-type role for the Cardinals moving forward. Rotoworld Today, 1:50 pm
       
    • Brewers outright James Meeker to Triple-A
      Brewers sent RHP James Meeker outright to Triple-A Nashville.

      Advice: The 29-year-old hurler was jettisoned off of the Brewers’ 40-man roster earlier in the week, but he passed through waivers unclaimed and will continue to function as extra bullpen depth for the team at the Triple-A level. Rotoworld Today, 1:35 pm
       
    • Devin Williams (back) nearing mound work
      Brewers’ manager Pat Murphy told reporters on Saturday that Devin Williams (back) remains on track to return after the All-Star break.

      Advice: Murphy also noted that the 29-year-old hurler is expected to get on a mound soon as he continues his recovery from a pair of stress fractures in his back. While Trevor Megill has been outstanding in his stead, Williams is one of the premiere closers in all of baseball and should jump right back into the Brewers’ ninth inning role as soon as he’s healthy enough to do so.

    • Outright optioned
      Martin cleared waivers and was assigned to Triple-A Norfolk on Saturday, Jacob Calvin Meyer of The Baltimore Sun reports.

      Advice: Martin was designated for assignment by Baltimore and after going unclaimed on waivers, he'll remain at Triple-A. The right-hander has struggled to a 7.45 ERA and 2.61 WHIP over 9.2 innings in eight appearances with Norfolk this season and his outright option opens a spot on the 40-man roster for the Orioles.

    • Orioles outright Corbin Martin to Triple-A
      Orioles sent RHP Corbin Martin outright to Triple-A Norfolk.

    • Placed on 15-day IL
      Cimber was placed on the 15-day injured list with right shoulder inflammation Saturday.

      Advice: Cimber was touched up for four runs over one-third of an inning in Friday's 8-6 win over the Giants and he will now be forced to miss at least 15 days while nursing inflammation in his throwing shoulder. Right-hander Jose Marte had his contract selected from Triple-A Salt Lake on Saturday and he'll replace Cimber in the Angels' bullpen. Rotowire.com Today, 12:17 pm
       
    • Expected to be opener Sunday
      Joyce is expected to operate as an opener for Sunday's matchup with the Giants, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

      Advice: Joyce will make his first career major-league start Sunday as the Angels will try to get two innings out of him before going to the bullpen. The right-hander has allowed five runs on eight hits and three walks while striking out two batters over 3.2 innings in four appearances with Los Angeles this season. After Joyce serves as the opener, Jose Suarez and Carson Fulmer are considered candidates to handle the bulk role on the mound in the series finale with the Giants. Rotowire.com Today, 11:47 am
