    • Nick Yorke delivers three hits Thursday for Triple-A
      Red Sox 2B prospect Nick Yorke went 3-for-5 with an RBI on Thursday for Triple-A Worcester.

      Advice: Yorke hasn’t skipped a beat since arrving in Worcester earlier this week with four hits in nine at-bats through a pair of games so far. The 22-year-old second baseman, who was Boston’s first-round pick from the 2020 MLB Draft, has watched his stock take a hit over the last few years as he hasn’t exactly hit for a ton of power in the upper minors. Still, there’s a chance he’s able to finally ascend to the big leagues at some point later this summer. Rotoworld 11 minutes ago

    • Tigers outright Buddy Kennedy to Triple-A
      Tigers sent INF Buddy Kennedy outright to Triple-A Toledo.

      Advice: It’s a tad surprising the Tigers were able to sneak Kennedy through waivers, but he’ll presumably head back to Triple-A Toledo to wait for another opportunity at the highest level. The 25-year-old infielder has morphed into a modern-era Quad-A hitter over the last few years, putting up stellar on-base numbers at the Triple-A level, while struggling to produce at the highest level in several opportunities.

    • Pirates outright Grant Koch to Triple-A
      Pirates sent C Grant Koch outright to Triple-A Indianapolis.

      Advice: Koch was booted from Pittsburgh’s 40-man roster earlier this week and promptly went unclaimed on waivers. The 27-year-old backstop will head back to the minors as extra organizational catching depth after being designated for assignment for the first time in his career. He went 0-for-7 with six strikeouts and one walk in three games with the Pirates. Rotoworld 22 minutes ago
       
    • Optioned to Triple-A
      The Diamondbacks optioned Hughes to Triple-A Reno on Thursday.

      Advice: Hughes has given up seven earned runs in 3.2 innings over his last two big-league outings, giving him a 10.13 ERA and 2.25 WHIP on the year. In an effort to get back on track, he'll head back to Reno, where he owns a 1.83 ERA and 1.35 WHIP through 19.2 frames. Joe Jacques was recalled from Triple-A in a corresponding move.

    • D-backs recall lefty Joe Jacques on Thursday
      Diamondbacks recalled LHP Joe Jacques from Triple-A Reno.

      Advice: Jacques rejoins Arizona’s bullpen ahead of Thursday’s series opener against the Padres with fellow southpaw Blake Walston hitting the injured list with elbow inflammation. The 29-year-old lefty made one relief appearance earlier this season for the Diamondbacks after being claimed off waivers from the Red Sox. He figures to stick around for an extended period.

    • D-backs put Blake Walston (elbow) on 15-day IL
      Diamondbacks placed LHP Blake Walston on the 15-day injured list with left elbow inflammation.

      Advice: Walston ascended to the majors earlier this year and has pitched well for Arizona with a 2.84 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and 11/9 K/BB ratio across 12 2/3 innings (three appearances, two starts). No word yet on how long the 22-year-old lefty will be sidelined, but he figures to miss at least a couple weeks, even in a best-case scenario. Rotoworld 33 minutes ago
       
    • D-backs option Brandon Hughes back to Triple-A
      Diamondbacks optioned LHP Brandon Hughes to Triple-A Reno.

      Advice: Hughes heads back to the minors amid a flurry of roster moves for Arizona to re-shuffle their bullpen mix. The 28-year-old lefty has struggled this season to a disastrous 10.13 ERA, 2.25 WHIP and 11/6 K/BB ratio across 10 2/3 innings (nine appearances, two starts) in his Arizona debut.

    • D-backs activate and option Luis Frías to Triple-A
      Diamondbacks activated RHP Luis Frías from the 15-day injured list; optioned him to Triple-A Reno.

      Advice: Frías will remain stationed in the minors as extra organizational relief depth. The 26-year-old righty has been on the shelf since mod-April recovering from right shoulder inflammation. Rotoworld 34 minutes ago
       
    • Heads to 15-day IL
      Walston was placed on the 15-day injured list due to left elbow inflammation, Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.

      Advice: Walston was called up to make his first MLB start May 27 and made an additional start Tuesday. He was not part of the decision in either start, but he gave up just two eared runs in 9.0 innings. However, he will be unable to make a third start soon with the apparent injury that came of Tuesday's game. The Diamondbacks selected Humberto Castellanos from Triple-A Reno in a corresponding move.
