  • Dominant after rocky first
    Bradish did not factor into the decision Thursday, allowing three runs on six hits and a walk over five innings in a 6-3 victory over Milwaukee. He struck out 10.

    Advice: It looked like it would be a rough outing for Bradish after he allowed three runs on four hits in the first inning. However, he'd respond by retiring 12 consecutive batters while recording a season-high 10 strikeouts as the Orioles rallied for the comeback win. Bradish has pitched to a solid 3.24 ERA over his last six outings. Overall, he's 2-2 with a 4.25 ERA, 2.36 WHIP and 51:16 K:BB through 11 starts (53 innings) this season.

  • Begins workouts at Triple-A
    Vierling (back) began workouts at Triple-A Toledo on Thursday, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: That would indicate that Vierling might be cleared to play in minor-league rehab games this weekend and could perhaps return to the Tigers' active roster early next week. The 26-year-old outfielder has been on the 10-day injured list since May 30 due to lower back soreness. Rotowire.com 23 minutes ago

  • Inks MiLB deal with Seattle
    Gregorius signed a minor-league contract with the Mariners on Thursday, Russell Dorsey of Bally Sports reports.

    Advice: Gregorius signed with Algodoneros de Union Laguna of the Mexican League on May 2 and has since recorded a 1.208 OPS with 11 homers. He will serve as an organizational depth piece in Triple-A Tacoma, but the 33-year-old shortstop could work his way onto the Mariners' bench if he continues to hit the cover off the ball. Gregorius slashed .210/.263/.304 through 232 plate appearances with the Phillies last season. Rotowire.com 26 minutes ago
  • Day-to-day with tight hamstring
    Twins manager Rocco Baldelli expressed optimism Thursday that Polanco (hamstring) will avoid the injured list, Do-Hyoung Park of MLB.com reports. "He's still, I think, pretty strong in the muscle," said Baldelli. "But he definitely felt something. We're going to have to pay attention to it."

    Advice: Polanco tweaked his troublesome left hamstring while running the bases in the top of the first inning Thursday versus the Rays. The second baseman just returned June 1 from a nearly two-week stay on the IL for a left hamstring strain. He's considered day-to-day leading into the Twins' three-game weekend series at Toronto.

  • First MLB start Friday
    Smith-Shawver will make his first major-league start Friday against the Nationals, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Smith-Shawver worked 2.1 hitless innings of relief in his big-league debut Sunday versus the Diamondbacks and will now officially step into Atlanta's rotation for the recently-demoted Michael Soroka. The fast-rising 20-year-old was a seventh-round pick out of high school in 2021 and had exploded to the tune of a 1.09 ERA with 45 strikeouts through 33 innings (seven starts) this season between High-A Rome, Double-A Mississippi and Triple-A Gwinnett. He's a must-add for a favorable matchup in Atlanta against the visiting Nats. Rotowire.com 41 minutes ago
  • Jorge Polanco leaves game with apparent leg injury
    Jorge Polanco was removed from Thursdays game against the Rays in the first inning with an apparent leg injury.

    Advice: Polanco sustained the injury while running the bases in the first inning. He’ll presumably head for further evaluation. Expect the Twins to provide an update on his status as soon as one becomes available. NBCSportsEDGE.com 47 minutes ago

  • On track for Saturday
    Bohm (hamstring) is likely to return from the 10-day injured list Saturday, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: Bohm went through a full workout Thursday without issue and is tracking toward just a 10-day absence to heal his mild left hamstring strain. He's needed in Philadelphia to help at both third base and first base. Rotowire.com Today, 1:11 pm

  • To be activated Friday
    Alvarado (elbow) will be activated from the injured list Friday, Matt Gelb of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: Alvarado is again ready to be a high-leverage contributor out of the Phillies' bullpen following a four-week recovery from left elbow inflammation. He had become manager Rob Thomson's primary closer prior to the IL stint and should quickly work his way back toward the top of the saves mix. When healthy this year, Alvarado has delivered a terrific 0.63 ERA with 24 strikeouts and no walks in 14.1 innings. Rotowire.com Today, 1:04 pm

  • Mike Yastrzemski not in Giants lineup on Thursday
    Mike Yastrzemski is not in the Giants' starting lineup for Thursday's showdown against the Rockies.

    Advice: Yastrzemski had played in two straight games after battling through some tightness in his right side, so the Giants are likely just easing him back into action here. Austin Slater will start in his place in center field and bat eighth for the Giants on Thursday afternoon at Coors Field. NBCSportsEDGE.com Today, 12:57 pm
