  • 47-62-11 12th Place
    • Claimed by Boston
      The Red Sox claimed Speas off waivers from the Astros on Saturday and optioned him to Triple-A Worcester, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports.

      Advice: Speas was DFA'd by the Astros last week, and although he'll remain in Triple-A with his new organization, he will reclaim a spot on a 40-man roster. The 26-year-old righty has accumulated a gaudy 10.38 ERA and 2.26 WHIP through 21.2 total innings in the minors while spending time with three different organizations. Barring a significant improvement, a return to the majors is unlikely. Rotowire.com 22 minutes ago
       
    • Throws 20 pitches in bullpen Friday
      Hendriks (elbow) threw a second bullpen session Friday, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: All 20 of Hendriks' pitches Friday were fastballs, and the right-hander noted Saturday that three more bullpen sessions are planned next week. The 35-year-old is working his way back from Tommy John surgery from last August, and he is aiming to return to the majors before the end of the regular season. In his last full season in 2022 as a member of the White Sox, Hendriks registered a 2.81 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 85:16 K:BB across 57.2 innings. Rotowire.com 41 minutes ago
       
    • Scheduled for bullpen session
      Burdi (hip) will throw a live bullpen session Sunday, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Sunday will be the first time Burdi has thrown since landing on the injured list May 24 due to right hip inflammation. In the 12 games Burdi appeared in before the injury, he posted a 1.86 ERA and 1.45 WHIP across 9.2 innings. More bullpen sessions will be on the menu for the 31-year-old right-hander -- barring any setbacks after Sunday -- as he aims to return after the All-Star break. Rotowire.com Today, 10:32 am
       
    • Ben Brown (neck) throwing bullpen on Saturday
      Ben Brown (neck) is scheduled to throw a bullpen session on Saturday.

      Advice: Brown has resumed throwing just a couple weeks after landing on the shelf with a neck strain. The 24-year-old righty appeared to be putting it all together this season with a pristine 3.58 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 64/19 K/BB ratio across 55 1/3 innings (15 appearances, eight starts) before hitting the injured list. He’s worth stashing in deeper mixed leagues until he’s ready to return in a couple weeks. Rotoworld Today, 10:24 am

    • Nick Burdi (hip) set to face hitters on Sunday
      Nick Burdi (hip) is scheduled to face hitters on Sunday in a live batting practice session.

      Advice: Burdi has been out since late May recovering from right hip inflammation. It seems likely he’ll be ready to return at some point after the All-Star break. Rotoworld Today, 10:17 am
       
    • D-backs option Brandon Hughes to Triple-A
      Diamondbacks optioned LHP Brandon Hughes to Triple-A Reno.

      Advice: Hughes holds an astronomical 10.29 ERA, 2.14 WHIP and 18/7 K/BB ratio across 14 innings (12 appearances) this season in the big leagues. He’s headed back to the minors this weekend to make room for Diamondbacks ace Zac Gallen to return from the injured list. Rotoworld Today, 10:10 am
       
    • Sent back to Reno
      The Diamondbacks optioned Hughes to Triple-A Reno on Saturday.

      Advice: Hughes owns a 2.00 ERA through 27 frames at Triple-A, but he's allowed four earned runs in 3.1 innings since joining the Diamondbacks' bullpen Sunday. He'll now be sent back to Triple-A to make room for Zac Gallen (hamstring), who was reinstated from the IL in a corresponding move. Rotowire.com Today, 10:02 am
       
    • Optioned to Colombus
      The Guardians optioned McCaughan to Triple-A Columbus on Saturday.

      Advice: After being recalled by the big club Thursday, McCaughan pitched four innings against the Royals on Friday, allowing four runs on five hits and four walks while striking out one. The move makes room on the 26-man roster for right-hander Eli Morgan (elbow), who was activated from the 15-day injured list in a corresponding move. Rotowire.com Today, 9:50 am
       
    • Activated off IL
      The Guardians activated Morgan (elbow) from the 15-day injured list Saturday.

      Advice: Morgan will return from the IL for the second time this season after recovering from right elbow inflammation. He made two rehab outings in Triple-A, allowing one run on two hits and a walk over 1.2 innings. To make room for Morgan on the 26-man roster, Darren McCaughan was optioned to Triple-A Columbus.
