  • Angels recall Davis Daniel for Thursday start
    Angels recalled RHP Davis Daniel from Triple-A Salt Lake.

    Advice: Daniel will make his season debut on Thursday evening against the Tigers after posting a pedestrian 5.33 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 82/25 K/BB ratio across 76 innings (14 starts) this season for Triple-A Salt Lake. The 27-year-old righty made three relief appearances last year for Los Angeles in his first taste of the majors. Rotoworld Today, 2:53 pm

  • Halos option Guillermo Zuñiga to Triple-A
    Angels optioned RHP Guillermo Zuñiga to Triple-A Salt Lake.

    Advice: Zuñiga has been shipped back to the minors to free up a roster spot for Thursday’s starter Davis Daniel to take the ball against the Tigers. The 25-year-old righty was called back up over the weekend after missing a couple months with a pectoral strain. He should be back in a couple weeks. Rotoworld Today, 2:50 pm
     
  • Dispatched to Salt Lake
    The Angels optioned Zuniga to Triple-A Salt Lake on Thursday.

    Advice: Zuniga will end up being the Angels' roster casualty as the team promotes Davis Daniel from Triple-A to start Thursday's game versus the Tigers. Zuniga allowed one run in two innings during his latest stint in the majors, bringing his ERA down to 6.43 through seven innings. Rotowire.com Today, 2:47 pm
     
  • Promoted ahead
    The Angels recalled Daniel from Triple-A Salt Lake to start Thursday's game versus Detroit.

    Advice: Daniel has yet to pitch in the majors this season despite joining the active roster for one day in May. He posted a 2.19 ERA and 1.30 WHIP through 12.1 innings across three games with the Halos last season, but fantasy managers should expect results closer to his Triple-A statline (5.33 ERA, 1.50 WHIP in 76 innings) as he makes his first career MLB start Thursday. Guillermo Zuniga was optioned to Triple-A in a corresponding move. Rotowire.com Today, 2:43 pm

  • Guardians add Darren McCaughan to bullpen mix
    Guardians recalled RHP Darren McCaughan from Triple-A Columbus.

    Advice: McCaughan augments Cleveland’s relief depth heading into Thursday’s contest against the division-rival Royals. The 28-year-old righty has made only one relief appearance this season for the Guardians since being acquired back in early May from the Marlins. Rotoworld Today, 2:42 pm
     
  • Guardians option Xzavion Curry to Triple-A
    Guardians optioned RHP Xzavion Curry to Triple-A Columbus.

    Advice: Curry heads back to the minors after allowing two runs over three innings on Wednesday in mop-up duty against the Orioles. The 25-year-old righty holds a lackluster 5.74 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 9/3 K/BB ratio across 15 2/3 innings (four appearances, three starts) this season in the big leagues. Rotoworld Today, 2:40 pm
     
  • 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 Today, 1:49 pm
