    • Rehab stint continues Friday
      Merryweather (ribs) is scheduled to pitch for Triple-A Iowa on Friday, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune reports.

      Advice: Merryweather fanned two across a perfect inning in his first rehab appearance Tuesday. The 32-year-old should rejoin the big-league bullpen on the other side of the All-Star break. Rotowire.com Friday, 2:29 pm
       
    • Could return after All-Star break
      Manager Dave Roberts said Friday that Graterol (shoulder) could be activated off the 60-day injured list by the end of July, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports.

      Advice: Graterol has been on the shelf the entire season due to right shoulder inflammation, but the 25-year-old right-hander has been progressing through his rehab program and was added to the roster of the Dodgers' Arizona Complex League affiliate Friday, per Eric Stephen of SBNation.com. Graterol appeared in 68 games for the Dodgers last season, posting a 1.20 ERA and 0.97 WHIP over 67.1 innings while recording seven saves. Rotowire.com Friday, 2:23 pm
       
    • Brusdar Graterol (shoulder) nears rehab assignment
      Dodgersā€™ manager Dave Roberts told reporters on Friday that Brusdar Graterol (shoulder) is getting closer to starting a minor league rehab assignment.

      Advice: The 25-year-old right-hander has been sidelined since the middle of spring training due to inflammation in his pitching shoulder. Roberts noted that if all goes according to plan, Graterol could be ready to join the teamā€™s bullpen before the end of July. Rotoworld Friday, 2:07 pm
       
    • Posts season-high 10 Ks
      Greene (6-4) earned the win Thursday, allowing one run on two hits and two walks over six innings against the Rockies. He struck out 10.

      Advice: Greene, who was added to the NL All-Star roster a couple of days ago, validated that selection by allowing just a single earned run and only four baserunners while fanning a season-high 10 batters over six innings. It's the fifth time in his last six outings the right-hander has allowed two or fewer runs, a feat he's now accomplished 13 times in 19 starts this season. Greene heads into the All-Star break with a 3.34 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 126 strikeouts over 110.1 innings. Rotowire.com Thursday, 6:17 pm
       
    • Limited to catch
      Garcia (elbow) played catch Thursday after originally being scheduled for a bullpen session, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Garcia struggled in his rehab appearance July 4, primarily due to issues with his location. Manager Joe Espada framed the downgraded activity as a precaution, though the team has also not announced when Garcia will make his next rehab start. Rotowire.com Thursday, 6:00 pm
       
    • Garrett Crochet starting Friday against the Pirates
      Garrett Crochet will start on Friday against the Pirates.

      Advice: It figures to be an abbreviated outing for Crochet in his first-half finale as itā€™ll set him up to potentially start next weekā€™s All-Star Game for the American League. The 25-year-old southpaw has been at the epicenter of trade rumors recently and figures to be on the move by the trade deadline. The White Sox undoubtedly want to showcase him at the Midsummer Classic, so this outing might be a short one. Rotoworld Thursday, 2:13 pm
       
    • Hunter Greene whiffs 10 in victory over Rockies
      Hunter Greene struck out 10 over six innings while giving up two runs in a win over the Reds on Saturday.

      Advice: Greene was named an All-Star on Tuesday, and it was obvious why against the Colorado lineup. The right-hander allowed just two hits, and one of those was a solo homer from Michael Toglia. Over his last two outings, Greene has allowed just that one run while striking out 17 against just three free passes. When he throws strikes, heā€™s capable of dominance. The next time Greene will be on the mound is probably the All-Star Game, and his next regular season outing should be against the Nationals next weekend. Rotoworld Thursday, 1:00 pm
       
    • Rehab appearances set
      Speier (shoulder) emerged from throwing live batting practice at Petco Park on Tuesday feeling healthy and will make rehab appearances Friday and Monday, MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Speier will actually kick off his rehab assignment with Triple-A Tacoma in Albuquerque on Friday before moving down to the Mariners' Arizona Complex League team for Monday's outing. If both appearances go well, Speier will likely be activated ahead of Seattle's first series coming out of the All-Star break against the Astros, which begins July 19.

    • Roughed up in latest rehab start
      Garcia (elbow) covered 1.1 innings while striking out two and giving up four earned runs on three hits and one walk in his latest rehab start last Thursday with Double-A Corpus Christi.

      Advice: After tossing a perfect inning in his first rehab outing June 28 in the rookie-level Florida Complex League, Garcia was much less sharp while jumping up three levels for his second rehab start. While he spotted 21 of his 31 pitches for strikes and hit 94 mph with his fastball in the latest outing, his command wasn't on point, as he served up two home runs among the three hits he allowed. Due to effects of Hurricane Beryl in Texas, Garcia's rehab program has been slowed down this week, though he's scheduled to throw a bullpen session Thursday, according to MLB.com. If all goes well with the side session, Garcia could then make his third rehab start as soon as this weekend. Rotowire.com Thursday, 6:57 am
