    • Marlins add Kent Emanuel to relief mix on Saturday
      Marlins selected the contract of LHP Kent Emanuel from Triple-A Jacksonville.

      Advice: Emanuel provides Miami’s overworked bullpen with a fresh arm heading into Saturday’s game against the division-rival Nationals. The 32-year-old lefty made a pair of relief appearances back in April for the Marlins. Rotoworld Today, 10:07 am
       
    • Marlins jettison Shaun Anderson back to Triple-A
      Marlins optioned RHP Shaun Anderson to Triple-A Jacksonville.

      Advice: Anderson was torched for seven runs on 10 hits over two-plus innings on Friday in a spot start against the Nationals. The 29-year-old journeyman will head back to the minors to await his next opportunity. Rotoworld Today, 10:05 am
       
    • Abner Uribe to undergo right knee surgery
      Abner Uribe will undergo right knee surgery.

      Advice: Uribe picked up a handful of saves at the outset of the year for Milwaukee before struggling to the point that he was demoted by the start of May to Triple-A Nashville. The hard-throwing 23-year-old righty is expected to undergo a surgical procedure in the coming days to repair a lateral meniscus tear in his right knee. Rotoworld Today, 9:02 am

    • Jared Koenig to open for Brewers on Saturday
      Jared Koenig will start on Saturday against the Reds.

      Advice: Koenig will take the ball as Milwaukee’s opener before turning things over the Bryse Wilson for a bulk relief appearance. The 30-year-old has been outstanding this season with a microscopic 1.72 ERA, 0.93 WHIP and 26/6 K/BB ratio across 31 1/3 innings (22 appearances, four starts). He hasn’t given up a run in 11 consecutive appearances dating back to May 17. Rotoworld Today, 9:00 am

    • Set for bulk-relief duty
      Wilson is in line to serve as a bulk reliever Saturday versus the Reds behind opening pitcher Jared Koenig, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

      Advice: Wilson has now alternated between traditional starts and bulk relief over his last six appearances. The right-hander had turned in a 3.00 ERA over a stretch of 11 appearances spanning 48 innings from April 10 through June 3, but he had his worst outing of the season in a loss to the Tigers this past Sunday, when he surrendered seven earned runs over 4.1 frames.

    • Will open Saturday's game
      Koening will serve as the Brewers' opening pitcher in Saturday's game against the Reds, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

      Advice: It's a familiar role for Koening, who is unscored upon over 4.1 innings in his first four opener assignments this season. He's expected to be followed Saturday by Bryse Wilson in bulk relief. Rotowire.com Today, 8:46 am

    • Throws bullpen session
      Merryweather (ribs) threw a 26-pitch bullpen session Friday, Taylor McGregor of Marquee Sports Network reports.

      Advice: Merryweather has been on the shelf since early April due to a rib stress fracture and has finally progressed to mound work. While he's moving in the right direction, the reliever would seem to still be several weeks away from a potential return. Rotowire.com Today, 8:28 am
       
    • Saddled with second loss
      Alexander (0-2) took the extra-inning loss against the Twins on Friday, allowing an unearned run on a hit and an intentional walk without recording an out.

      Advice: Alexander's lighting-quick outing resulted in the culmination of the Twins' comeback from a pair of deficits, with the southpaw intentionally putting Carlos Correa on and then conceding a walk-off RBI single on his first pitch to Max Kepler that plated automatic runner Austin Martin. Alexander has now allowed a run in three straight appearances and taken his first two losses of the season in consecutive outings, so it remains to be seen if he'll be kept out of high-leverage situations for the time being as he tries to get back on track.

    • Undergoing knee surgery
      Uribe will undergo surgery to repair a lateral meniscus tear in his right knee, MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Uribe landed on the 7-day injured list at Triple-A Nashville last week with the knee issue and the decision has been made to go under the knife. Brewers general manager Matt Arnold said the extent of the damage won't be known until the surgery is performed, but "it could just be a light cleanup." The hope is that Uribe will be able to return later this season, but more will be known following the operation. Rotowire.com Today, 8:11 am
