    • Raisel Iglesias earns 21st save of the season
      Raisel Iglesias allowed a hit and struck out a batter on Wednesday to nail down the save against the Giants.

      Advice: Iglesias continues to stymie the opposition despite not putting up the same gaudy strikeout totals as his other late-inning relief counterparts. His 21 saves are fourth most in the league while both his 2.27 ERA and 0.88 WHIP are lights out. Rotoworld Yesterday, 7:01 pm
       
    • Jordan Hicks solid, loses touch in fifth inning
      Jordan Hicks allowed three earned runs across five innings on Wednesday against the Braves. He allowed eight hits and two walks while striking out six in defeat.

      Advice: Four of the eight hits the Braves got off Hicks came with two outs in that fifth inning when the lineup turned over for a third time. The inning could have been worse if Austin Riley hadn’t been thrown out at the plate. Still, it was nice to see Hicks’ sweeper induce 10 swings-and-misses as he leaned on that pitch instead of his splitter. Rotoworld Yesterday, 6:58 pm
       
    • Aroldis Chapman gets win in relief on Wednesday
      Aroldis Chapman struck out three and allowed one run (zero earned) over two innings on Wednesday against the Cardinals to pick up his first win of the season.

      Advice: Chapman hurled a scoreless ninth inning to send the contest to extra innings before allowing the ghost runner to cross the plate in the ensuing frame. Fortunately, the Pirates wound up rallying for a walk-off victory in the bottom of the 10th inning. The 36-year-old southpaw has done a nice job filling in for injured stopper David Bednar recently and figures to continue closing for Pittsburgh through the Midsummer Classic.

    • Starting Thursday
      Shuster will start Thursday's game against the Guardians, Daryl Van Schouwen of the Chicago Sun-Times reports.

      Advice: Shuster has appeared in 17 games for the White Sox this season, posting a 3.15 ERA and 1.34 WHIP in 34.1 innings, but Thursday will mark his first start of the year. The 25-year-old southpaw worked almost exclusively as a starter throughout his professional career before joining the White Sox in the offseason, so he should be able to pitch well into Thursday's game before Chicago turns to its bullpen.

    • Kyle Finnegan shuts down Mets for save
      Kyle Finnegan worked a clean ninth inning on Wednesday to earn the save against the Mets.

      Advice: Finnegan earned his 23rd save of the season, third most in the league, on Wednesday night. He looked sharp as he worked his third consecutive game and dropped his ERA down to 1.98. He’s been one of the most reliable closers in baseball so far this season. Rotoworld Yesterday, 6:35 pm
       
    • Removed from 40-man
      The Dodgers sent Feyereisen outright to Triple-A Oklahoma City on Wednesday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Feyereisen was optioned to Triple-A on June 21 after posting an 8.18 ERA in 11 innings with the big-league club, and he has now officially lost his 40-man spot to Matt Gage. The 31-year-old Feyereisen hasn't found much success in the minors this season either (6.75 ERA in 18.2 innings), so a return to the big leagues in 2024 doesn't seem likely given Los Angeles' bullpen depth.

    • Joins 40-man roster
      The Dodgers added Gage to their 40-man roster Wednesday, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.

      Advice: Gage exercised an opt-out clause in his minor-league contract Wednesday, but he'll instead remain with the organization now that he owns a spot on the 40-man. The 31-year-old southpaw will remain in Triple-A, however, where he's posted a 2.79 ERA and 1.31 WHIP in 19.1 innings this season. J.P. Feyereisen was outrighted to Oklahoma City in a corresponding move. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:08 pm
       
    • Dodgers add Matt Gage to 40-man roster Wednesday
      Dodgers selected the contract of LHP Matt Gage from Triple-A Oklahoma City and optioned him to Triple-A Oklahoma City.

      Advice: The 31-year-old southpaw had an opt-out clause in his contract that he could exercise on Wednesday, but since the Dodgers wanted to keep him around they added him to their 40-man roster instead. Gage has pitched well at OKC this season, posting a 2.79 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and a 27/10 K/BB ratio over 19 1/3 innings in 18 appearances. It shouldn’t take him long to earn an opportunity with the big-league club now. Rotoworld Yesterday, 5:59 pm
       
    • Cole Irvin removed from Orioles’ starting rotation
      Orioles’ manager Brandon Hyde told reporters on Wednesday that Cole Irvin will work out of the team’s bullpen going forward.

      Advice: Someone needed to get the boot with Dean Kremer returning on Wednesday, and with Cade Povich and Albert Suarez pitching well and Irvin struggling recently, the writing had been on the wall. The 30-year-old hurler will settle into a long-relief role until another injury strikes the O’s rotation or they require an extra starter. Rotoworld Yesterday, 5:56 pm
