  • Sent on rehab assignment
    Perez (groin) will pitch for Triple-A Indianapolis on Saturday, Andrew Destin of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

    Advice: Perez has been steadily progressing since being placed on the IL in late May with a strained left groin, and he will take what's likely the last step of his recovery by starting a rehab assignment. Per Kevin Gorman of TribLive.com, Perez is expected to throw roughly 75 pitches Saturday as his only rehab start. Prior to the injury, Perez held a 4.71 ERA and a 1.55 WHIP across 57.1 innings with Pittsburgh. Rotowire.com Today, 11:48 am

  • Jesus Luzardo (back) won’t start Saturday
    Jesus Luzardo (back) won’t start for the Marlins on Saturday, according to Daniel Alvarez-Montes.

    Advice: Luzardo has dealt with back stiffness and will miss his scheduled start on Saturday. It’s yet to be determined if Luzardo is just having his start pushed back or if he’ll require a stint on the injured list. Rotoworld Today, 11:30 am
  • Missing Saturday's start
    Luzardo (back) won't start Saturday's game against the Mariners, Daniel Alvarez-Montes of ElExtraBase.com reports.

    Advice: Luzardo experienced back tightness in his last start and was pulled after 77 pitches and showed decreased velocity. While the Marlins initially listed Luzardo as their probable pitcher Saturday, they'll refrain from putting the 26-year-old lefty on the mound against Seattle and give him some extra rest. Miami could possibly push Luzardo's start back a day, with Braxton Garrett filling in Saturday, but it's more likely Luzardo won't pitch until his next turn in the rotation.

  • Released by Miami
    The Marlins released Smith on Thursday.

    Advice: Smith predictably cleared waivers after being designated for assignment and is now free to sign on with a new organization. The right-hander posted a 4.25 ERA, 1.62 WHIP and 23:9 K:BB over 29.2 innings for the Marlins. Rotowire.com Today, 10:25 am
  • Cardinals option Adam Kloffenstein Friday
    Cardinals optioned RHP Adam Kloffenstein to Triple-A Memphis.

    Advice: Kloffenstein was the corresponding move for the activation of Giovanny Gallegos from the injured list. The 23-year-old right-hander will return to the minors after tossing a scoreless inning in his first major league appearance on Thursday. Rotoworld Today, 10:18 am
  • Cardinals activated RHP Giovanny Gallegos from IL
    Cardinals activated RHP Giovanny Gallegos from the 15-day injured list.

    Advice: Gallegos has been out since early May with shoulder trouble. He’s been a steady reliever for St. Louis over the last few seasons and sometimes even an option for saves. Gallegos has recorded at least 10 saves in each of the last three years, though that’s unlikely to continue this season. He has a 12.00 ERA and SO:BB of 13:7 in 13 appearances with the Cardinals this year. Rotoworld Today, 10:14 am
  • Goes back to minors
    The Cardinals optioned Kloffenstein to Triple-A Memphis on Friday.

    Advice: Kloffenstein turned in a 1-2-3 inning in his major-league debut Thursday versus the Giants to help out a depleted Cardinals bullpen but will quickly head back to Memphis. The big righty will re-enter Memphis' starting rotation, where he's collected a 3.97 ERA and 1.13 WHIP through 77 innings across 14 starts. Rotowire.com Today, 10:07 am
  • Returns from injured list
    The Cardinals activated Gallegos (shoulder) from the 15-day injured list Friday.

    Advice: St. Louis has a rare Friday off day, but it will have Gallegos back in its bullpen Saturday versus the Giants. The veteran reliever has been out since early May with a right shoulder impingement and didn't pitch well on a rehab assignment, allowing eight runs with a 5:4 K:BB over 6.1 innings. Gallegos will probably be eased into high-leverage situations. Rotowire.com Today, 10:04 am
  • Blows save chance Thursday
    Estrada (3-1) blew a save but was credited with the win in Thursday's victory versus the Brewers. He allowed two runs on two hits and one walk while striking out three batters over one inning.

    Advice: Primary closer Robert Suarez had pitched on back-to-back days, so San Diego turned to Estrada with a two-run lead in the ninth inning, though the latter had taken the mound on consecutive days as well. Estrada couldn't close things out, giving up a pair of runs on a walk, a single, a wild pitch and a double. To his credit, the right-hander kept the game tied by striking out the final two batters he faced, and he ended up in the win column when Jake Cronenworth smacked a walk-off home run in the bottom of the frame. Though Estrada continues to rack up punchouts -- of his past 13 outs, 12 have come via strikeout -- he's been struggling of late, giving up eight runs on 10 hits and three walks over that span of five outings.
