  • Getting rest day
    Lee is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against Atlanta.

    Advice: Lee will get a breather for Thursday's day game after he caught all three of the White Sox's games versus the Dodgers earlier this week. Martin Maldonado checks in for Lee behind the plate. Rotowire.com 4 minutes ago
     
  • Not starting Thursday
    Sheets (heel) is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against Atlanta.

    Advice: Sheets was forced out of Wednesday's 4-0 loss to the Dodgers with a bruised left heel and is considered day-to-day. The 28-year-old could end up filling more of a part-time role for the White Sox moving forward in the wake of Eloy Jimenez's recent return from the injured list, so Sheets may not re-enter the lineup for a few more days even if he quickly shakes off the heel injury.

  • Testing open market
    Andrews elected free agency Wednesday in lieu of accepting an outright assignment.

    Advice: Last week, the Yankees moved Andrews off their 40-man roster for the second time this season. Andrews accepted an outright assignment to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre upon clearing waivers back in April, but he won't do the same this time around and will instead look to join an organization that can present him with a clearer path to the big leagues. The lefty reliever made 20 appearances this season at Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, posting a 5.84 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 28:22 K:BB in 24.2 innings. Rotowire.com 8 minutes ago
     
  • Sent back to minors
    The Yankees optioned Gomez to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Thursday.

    Advice: Gomez was sent out after he mopped up in Wednesday's 12-2 loss to the Mets, covering two innings while allowing five earned runs on four hits and three walks. The Yankees will replace him on the 26-man active roster with a fresh bullpen arm in Jake Cousins, who was called up from Triple-A. Rotowire.com 14 minutes ago
     
  • Summoned to big leagues
    The Yankees recalled Cousins from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Thursday.

    Advice: After right-handed reliever Yoendrys Gomez worked two innings in Wednesday's 12-2 loss to the Mets, the Yankees will move him off the 26-man active roster for a fresh bullpen arm in Cousins. The 29-year-old has previously made two relief appearances for the Yankees but has otherwise spent the entire 2024 campaign at Triple-A, covering six innings while giving up two earned runs and striking out eight batters.

  • Sent back to Triple-A
    The Red Sox optioned Campbell to Triple-A Worcester on Thursday, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: Campbell's stay with the Red Sox lasted for just three days, with the right-handed reliever getting tagged for three earned runs while recording just one out in his lone appearance in Monday's 7-6 win over the Blue Jays. The 26-year-old has been effective in his 11 appearances with Worcester this season, logging a 2.19 ERA and 0.97 WHIP in 12.1 innings. Despite his lack of success in the big leagues this season, Campbell should still rank near the top of the list for a call-up when the Red Sox require an extra bullpen arm.

  • Heads back to Triple-A
    The Red Sox optioned Heineman to Triple-A Worcester on Thursday, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: As expected, Heineman's stay with the Red Sox was a brief one. Boston called him up from Worcester on Monday to provide another option at catcher while Connor Wong (personal) was away from the team on paternity leave, but Heineman will head back to the minors after Wong was activated ahead of the Red Sox's next game Friday versus the Padres. Heineman picked up one at-bat during his latest stint in the majors. Rotowire.com 26 minutes ago
     
  • Returns from paternity list
    The Red Sox reinstated Wong (personal) from the paternity list Thursday, Jen McCaffrey of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: Wong missed the maximum three games while on paternity leave and will rejoin the Red Sox ahead of Friday's series opener versus the Padres. Tyler Heineman was optioned to Triple-A Worcester to clear room on the active roster for Wong, who should settle back in as Boston's No. 1 catcher while Reese McGuire serves as his backup.

  • Returns to Triple-A
    The Cardinals optioned Roycroft to Triple-A Memphis on Thursday.

    Advice: Roycroft will return to Memphis after he was called up ahead of the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader with Atlanta to serve as the Cardinals' 27th man for the twin bill. He struck out two and collected his first career hold in a perfect inning of the bullpen in the Cardinals' 4-1 win in Game 2. Rotowire.com Today, 8:34 am
