    • Released by Mets
      The Mets released Lopez on Wednesday, Michael Mayer of MetsmerizedOnline.com reports.

      Advice: Lopez cleared waivers after being designated for assignment and has now officially been cut loose after posting a 3.76 ERA and 19:11 K:BB over 26.1 innings. The reliever threw his glove into the stands following an ejection in his last appearance with the Mets and in a postgame interview referred to himself as "the worst teammate in MLB." Despite the unceremonious ending to his tenure in New York, Lopez should be able to field some interest from other clubs as a free agent. Rotowire.com 3 minutes ago
       
    • Mets release Jorge López
      Mets released RHP Jorge López.

      Advice: López struggled in his final three appearances for the Mets before being let go, and between that and the controversy that erupted after his final outing, he’ll probably have to spend a little time in the minors before getting another opportunity. Overall, he did have a 3.76 ERA in 26 1/3 innings for the Mets. His 19/11 K/BB ratio wasn’t great, though. Rotoworld 21 minutes ago
       
    • Astros return Parker Mushinski to minors
      Astros optioned LHP Parker Mushinski to Triple-A Sugar Land.

      Advice: Mushinski pitched the last two days, giving up two runs in 1 2/3 innings. He had a 6.55 ERA overall in 10 appearances for the Astros. Rotoworld 33 minutes ago
       
    • Astros shift José Urquidy to 60-day IL
      Astros transferred RHP José Urquidy from the 15-day to the 60-day injured list.

      Advice: Urquidy is undergoing elbow surgery today. The Astros haven’t confirmed that it will be Tommy John, but that is the expectation. Rotoworld 35 minutes ago

    • Next start pushed back
      Crawford's next scheduled start will be pushed back to early next week against the Phillies, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Crawford's next turn comes up Sunday versus the White Sox, but the Red Sox want to give him some extra rest given his recent struggles (he's allowed four or more earned runs in four of his last five starts). Boston is expected to go with a bullpen game Sunday. Rotowire.com 36 minutes ago
       
    • Shifted to 60-day IL
      The Astros transferred Urquidy (elbow) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Wednesday, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.

      Advice: The transaction frees up a 40-man roster spot for right-hander Nick Hernandez. Urquidy has been on the shelf all season with a right forearm strain, and after suffering a setback during his rehab assignment in late May, he underwent season-ending surgery on his elbow Wednesday. The Astros haven't disclosed whether Urquidy underwent the second Tommy John surgery of his career or another procedure, making his availability for the start of the 2025 season uncertain at the moment.

    • Sent packing to Triple-A
      The Astros optioned Mushinski to Triple-A Sugar Land on Wednesday.

      Advice: Mushinski had pitched both of the previous two days, allowing a pair of runs while cover 1.2 innings. He'll make way for a fresh relief arm in Nick Hernandez, whose contract was selected Wednesday. Rotowire.com 45 minutes ago
       
    • Will return Thursday
      Reds manager David Bell said Wednesday that Pagan (triceps) will be activated from the 15-day injured list Thursday, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.

      Advice: He will have missed just over the minimum 15 days with a right triceps issue. Pagan has posted a 4.19 ERA but also a 25:7 K:BB across 19.1 innings out of the Reds' bullpen in 2024. Rotowire.com 49 minutes ago
       
    • Takes first loss
      Long (0-1) allowed two unearned runs on one hit and one walks while striking out one over two-thirds of an inning to take the loss Tuesday versus the Guardians.

      Advice: Long put two runners on base before giving way to Angel Zerpa in the seventh inning. A Bobby Witt error would allow three runs to score, including the two on Long's line that sent him to the loss. He still hasn't given up an earned run over 5.1 innings this season, and he's generally pitched well with a 5:1 K:BB in a low-leverage role since he was brought up to the majors May 20. Long has previous experience as a starter, but none of his six big-league appearances this year have exceeded one inning. He went longer than an inning in eight of his 15 outings for Triple-A Omaha prior to his call-up, so he could still be called on to provide length out of the bullpen. Rotowire.com Today, 10:06 am
