  • Beginning rehab assignment
    The Padres sent Otto (shoulder) to the Arizona Complex League on Tuesday to begin a rehab assignment.

    Advice: A right teres major strain has kept Otto on the shelf since spring training, though he now seems ready to test his shoulder in a competitive environment. The Padres have not specified how long the 28-year-old reliever's assignment might last, but an extended stay may be necessary after being shut down for more than two months.

  • Officially activated
    The Tigers reinstated Miller (elbow) from the 15-day injured list Tuesday.

    Advice: Miller has been sidelined since May 13 due to right ulnar nerve inflammation in his right elbow. He threw 2.1 scoreless frames while striking out three batters and walking one during his two-game rehab assignment, though the 33-year-old right-hander has not been nearly as effective this season as he was in 2023, posting a 4.41 ERA through 16.1 innings. Mason Englert was optioned to Triple-A Toledo in a corresponding move. Rotowire.com Today, 3:02 pm
     
  • Optioned to Toledo
    The Tigers optioned Englert to Triple-A Toledo on Tuesday.

    Advice: Englert has given up three earned runs in six innings since coming up from Triple-A in late May, but he will now return to Toledo in order to make room for Shelby Miller (elbow), who was activated from the IL on Tuesday. Englert owns an impressive 2.35 ERA and 1.09 WHIP through 23 innings with the Mud Hens, and he could be the first choice to return to Detroit if the Tigers run into further depth problems in their bullpen.

  • Jakb Junis starting rehab assignment on Tuesday
    Jakob Junis (shoulder, head) will begin a minor league rehab assignment on Tuesday with Triple-A Nashville.

    Advice: Junis is going to need at least a handful of rehab outings to build up his stamina and pitch count, but he should be an option for the Brewers as extra starting pitching depth in a couple weeks. The 31-year-old suffered a head injury when he was hit by a ball during batting practice back in late April while on the injured list recovering from a shoulder impingement. Rotoworld Today, 2:44 pm
