    • Spencer Turnbull out 6-8 weeks with lat strain
      Spencer Turnbull will miss 6-8 weeks with a right lat strain.

      Advice: It’s a significant loss for the Phillies, especially with Taijuan Walker (finger) also on the shelf due to injury. The 31-year-old righty suffered the injury on Wednesday during his return to Philadelphia’s starting rotation and will likely wind up sidelined until at least early-to-mid August. It’ll probably be Michael Mercado attempting to fill the void, unless the Phillies are able to work out a deal to bring in some additional depth. Rotoworld 34 minutes ago
       
    • Tigers option Keider Moreno back to Triple-A
      Tigers optioned RHP Keider Moreno to Triple-A Toledo.

      Advice: Moreno heads back to the minors after surrendering five runs over 4 1/3 innings on Wednesday in a spot start against the Phillies. The 23-year-old righty has struggled at the highest level, but he’s flashed an ability to miss bats with his slider in the big leagues. Rotoworld 39 minutes ago
       
    • Back in majors
      The Guardians recalled McCaughan from Triple-A Columbus on Thursday.

      Advice: McCaughan was dispatched back to Triple-A on Monday after appearing in one game for the Guardians. He'll now return to the majors to replace Xzavion Curry, who was optioned to Columbus in a corresponding move. McCaughan has allowed 10 earned runs in 6.2 MLB innings between Cleveland and Miami, and he'll almost certainly be limited to low-leverage opportunities during his stint in the bigs.

    • Optioned to Triple-A
      The Guardians optioned Curry to Triple-A Columbus on Thursday.

      Advice: Curry took the loss out of the bullpen for the Guardians on Wednesday versus the Orioles and finds himself back in the minors a day later. He'll be replaced by a fresh bullpen arm in Darren McCaughan. Rotowire.com 47 minutes ago
       
    • Reds transfer Emilio Pagán to 60-day IL
      Reds transferred RHP Emilio Pagán to the 60-day injured list.

      Advice: Pagán has been on the shelf since earlier this mont recovering from a right lat strain. The procedural move will keep him out until at least early August. Rotoworld 47 minutes ago
       
    • Throws bullpen session
      Sanchez (shoulder) threw an 18-pitch bullpen session Wednesday, Christina De Nicola of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: He could throw off the mound again this weekend. While it appears he's inching in the right direction, Sanchez won't be eligible for activation until early August after being transferred to the 60-day injured list earlier this week. He's coming back from right shoulder inflammation. Rotowire.com Today, 1:31 pm
       
    • Ruled out through All-Star break
      Phillies manager Rob Thomson said Thursday that Walker (finger) will not return before the All-Star break, Paul Casella of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: The team doesn't have a timetable to offer yet on Walker, who is dealing with right index finger inflammation, but it is not expecting him back before the end of the first half. With Spencer Turnbull (lat) joining Walker on the 15-day injured list, the Phillies' rotation depth is being tested. Filling the fifth spot for now will be Michael Mercado.

    • Moved to 60-day IL
      The Reds transferred Pagan (lat) to the 60-day injured list Thursday.

      Advice: Pagan landed on the injured list June 9 due to a strained right lat, and his move to the 60-day IL will ensure that he remains sidelined until at least early August. His 40-man roster spot will be given to Noelvi Marte, who was reinstated from his 80-game suspension Thursday. Rotowire.com Today, 1:17 pm
       
    • Expected to miss 6-to-8 weeks
      Phillies manager Rob Thomson said Thursday that he expects Turnbull (lat) to be sidelined for 6-to-8 weeks, Alex Coffey of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

      Advice: Turnbull suffered a right lat strain in his first start back in the Phillies' rotation Wednesday and was placed on the 15-day injured list Thursday. Given the pitcher's lengthy injury history, the team will proceed with extra caution. Michael Mercado will slide into the Philadelphia rotation for now, at least until Taijuan Walker (finger) is ready. Rotowire.com Today, 1:02 pm
