    • Designated for assignment
      The White Sox designated Woodford for assignment Friday, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

      Advice: The move comes one day after Woodford was torched for seven runs on 10 hits and three walks over four innings in a loss to the Red Sox. He's being replaced on the roster by Jonathan Cannon, who will also likely take Woodford's spot in the rotation. Rotowire.com 15 minutes ago
       
    • Taking rehab program to Arizona
      Almonte (shoulder) has reported to the Cubs' spring training facility in Arizona and has been cleared to resume mound work, Maddie Lee of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

      Advice: He'll likely throw multiple side sessions in Arizona before then facing hitters in live batting practice or simulated games prior to heading out on a minor-league rehab assignment. The reliever has been on the 15-day injured list May 11 with a right shoulder strain. Rotowire.com 28 minutes ago
       
    • Getting second start
      Poteet is scheduled to start Friday's game against the Dodgers at Yankee Stadium.

      Advice: The right-hander will be making his third start of the season for the Yankees and his second straight turn through the rotation after he struck out six over five innings while allowing three runs (two earned) in a winning effort against the Giants last Saturday following his call-up from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. Unless the Yankees lose one of their other four current healthy starters due to an injury, Poteet's stay in the big-league rotation will likely come to an end once Gerrit Cole (elbow) makes his expected return from the 60-day injured list later this month.

    • Out with knee injury
      Uribe was placed on the 7-day injured list at Triple-A Nashville on Friday due to a knee issue, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: The specifics of the injury are unclear, and Uribe is scheduled to undergo an MRI on Tuesday. The 23-year-old picked up three saves early in the season for the Brewers, but he was demoted in early May with a 6.91 ERA and 14:12 K:BB over 14 outings. Uribe was also suspended six games for his role in a benches-clearing brawling just before being demoted, though the ban was reduced to four games on appeal, per Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel. The right-hander will have to serve that suspension once back on the major-league roster, but the current focus is getting him healthy. Rotowire.com Today, 8:18 am
       
    • On track to return next week
      Diaz (shoulder) said after his rehab appearance with High-A Brooklyn on Thursday that he will get one more rehab outing Sunday before being activated from the 15-day injured list on Wednesday or Thursday, SNY reports.

      Advice: Diaz allowed one hit and struck out two in a scoreless inning for Brooklyn in his first rehab appearance. The reliever was pleased with his performance, saying after the game that his fastball had "new life" and his slider felt "great." Diaz is on track to return to the Mets' bullpen next week, although it's not clear whether he will serve as the team's closer right away. Rotowire.com Today, 8:11 am
       
    • Falls apart Thursday
      Harvey (2-2) took the loss Thursday against Atlanta, coughing up three runs on four hits in an inning of relief.

      Advice: Taking the mound with the score tied 2-2, Harvey got two quick outs before the wheels came off, with the rally highlighted by Marcell Ozuna's two-run homer on a slider that caught too much of the plate. Harvey had been scored upon only once in his prior 10 appearances, and the long ball was just the second he's served up this season in 31.1 innings. The right-hander has been generally outstanding as the Nationals' top setup man, posting a 2.87 ERA, 0.99 WHIP and 34:6 K:BB, and his 18 holds already has him one away from his career high.

    • Lands save
      Stanek threw a perfect ninth inning Thursday against Oakland to pick up the save.

      Advice: Stanek got the call in the ninth with closer Andres Munoz (back) unavailable and corralled his fourth save of the season. While Munoz is expected to return this weekend, Stanek should be the Mariners' go-to closing option in the meantime. The right-hander owns a 3.52 ERA across 23.0 innings, adding three wins and 10 holds in 26 appearances. Rotowire.com Today, 6:41 am
       
    • Collects second win
      Bummer (2-2) picked up the win Thursday over the Nationals, striking out one in a perfect seventh inning.

      Advice: The southpaw set down the bottom of Washington's order on 13 pitches (eight strikes), and Atlanta took their first lead of the game in the top of the eighth. Bummer isn't seeing the high-leverage work he grew accustomed to with the White Sox, and he's still looking for his first hold of the season. After a bumpy start to the campaign, he's been tagged for earned runs in only one of 10 appearances since the beginning of May, posting a 1.64 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 12:3 K:BB through 11 innings over that stretch.

    • Matz throws two innings in rehab game
      Cardinals sent LHP Steven Matz on rehab assignment to Triple-A Memphis.

      Advice: Matz threw two scoreless innings and had two strikeouts in his first rehab start on Thursday. The 33-year-old left-hander has been on the injured list since mid-May with a back injury. Rotoworld Today, 5:46 am
