    • Opening Tuesday's contest
      Mantiply will start Tuesday's game against the Dodgers, Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic reports.

      Advice: The veteran left-hander will serve as an opener for the second time this season and the fifth time in his career. Mantiply hasn't recorded more than five outs in an appearance this season and should hand things over to Ryne Nelson after an inning or two Tuesday. Rotowire.com Today, 3:04 pm
       
    • Not yet throwing
      Manager Carlos Mendoza said Tuesday that Reid-Foley (shoulder) has yet to begin a throwing program, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

      Advice: Reid-Foley has been on the injured list since June 22 due to a right shoulder impingement -- the same injury that forced him to miss nearly a month to begin the season. Mendoza noted that it's possible the right-hander begins throwing Wednesday, but even if he does, it's unlikely he makes it back into the Mets' bullpen before the All-Star break.

    • Joe Mantiply to open for D-backs on Tuesday
      Joe Mantiply will serve as an opener for Tuesday’s game against the Dodgers.

      Advice: Mantiply gets the nod to open Tuesday’s showdown at Dodger Stadium with Ryne Nelson to follow afterwards in a bulk relief role. Rotoworld Today, 2:51 pm
       
    • Designated for assignment
      The Athletics designated Newcomb for assignment Tuesday.

      Advice: Newcomb made just seven appearances last year for Oakland and it seems that it will be the same this year as well. After posting a 6.30 ERA across 10.0 innings in seven games for Oakland, the 31-year-old will be looking to be claimed elsewhere. In a corresponding move, Tyler Ferguson was recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas on Tuesday. Rotowire.com Today, 2:18 pm
       
    • O’s ink Vinny Nittoli to minor league contract
      Orioles signed RHP Vinny Nittoli to a minor league contract.

      Advice: The rambling man is on the move again. It didn’t take Nittoli long to find a new opportunity following an extremely brief stint last week with the Cubs that lasted roughly 24 hours. The 33-year-old righty looked sharp earlier this season in seven relief outings for the Athletics and figures to get a look in Baltimore in short order. Rotoworld Today, 1:56 pm
       
    • Elects free agency
      Nittoli rejected the Cubs' outright assignment to Triple-A Iowa and elected free agency, Meghan Montemurro of the Chicago Tribune reports.

      Advice: The right-hander was designated for assignment by Chicago on Friday and won't stick around after passing through waivers unclaimed. Nittoli has made seven appearances at the big-league level this season -- all with the Athletics -- and has allowed two earned runs with a 5:2 K:BB over eight innings.

    • Vinny Nittoli elects free agency
      Vinny Nittoli has elected free agency.

      Advice: Nittoli was designated for assignment by the Cubs on Friday, and after going unclaimed, the right-hander refused his outright assignment to Triple-A and will hit the open waters. Nittoli should see interest on the market. Rotoworld Today, 12:25 pm
       
    • Outrighted to Triple-A
      The Cubs outrighted Nittoli to Triple-A Iowa on Monday.

      Advice: He can elect free agency and seems likely to do so given that he did just over a week ago when the Athletics outrighted him off their 40-man roster. Nittoli did not make an appearance during his one day on the Cubs' roster. Rotowire.com Today, 7:19 am
       
    • Rays release Chris Devenski
      Rays released RHP Chris Devenski.

      Advice: Devenski was DFA’d last week after racking up a 6.75 ERA in 26 2/3 innings out of the pen for Tampa Bay. He has a 6.46 ERA in 94 2/3 major league innings since the beginning of 2020. Rotoworld Yesterday, 1:38 pm
