  • Recalled from Triple-A
    Winn was recalled from Triple-A Round Rock on Sunday, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Advice: Winn will return to provide depth to a bullpen that was needed for six innings behind Nathan Eovaldi on Saturday. Jesus Tinoco was designated for assignment to make room for Winn, who has posted a 6.91 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and 12:3 K:BB in 11 appearances (14.1 innings) for the Rangers so far this season.

  • Opening Sunday's contest
    Miller will serve as the Giants' opening pitcher for Sunday's game against the Angels, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Miller will draw the opener assignment for the fifth time this season after the Giants had previously listed Kyle Harrison as the starter for Sunday's contest before placing him on the 15-day injured list with an ankle sprain just a few hours before the 4:05 p.m. ET opening pitcher. The left-hander hasn't been tasked with recording more than five outs in any of his previous turns as an opener, so he shouldn't be expected to handle more than two innings before he turns the game over to the bullpen. Spencer Bivens was called up from Triple-A Sacramento on Sunday and could be an option to cover multiple innings behind Miller. Rotowire.com 44 minutes ago

  • Rangers recall Cole Winn from Triple-A on Sunday
    Rangers recalled RHP Cole Winn from Triple-A Round Rock.

  • Erik Miller starting for Giants on Sunday
    Erik Miller will start Sunday’s game against the Angels.

    Advice: It will be bullpen games for both the Angels and Giants. Miller is getting the ball with Kyle Harrison (ankle) heading to the injured list. He likely won’t work deep enough to qualify for a win, so there’s no reason to consider him as a streaming option. Rotoworld Today, 9:46 am

  • Moved to 60-day IL
    Javier (elbow) was transferred to the 60-day injured list Sunday, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: This was merely procedural to free up a 40-man spot. Javier underwent Tommy John surgery earlier this month and will miss extended time, including perhaps all of 2025. Luis Contreras was called up in a corresponding move. Rotowire.com Today, 9:16 am
     
  • Josh Fleming starting Sunday against Rockies
    Josh Fleming is starting Sunday’s game against the Rockies.

    Advice: Fleming was recalled from Triple-A Friday, and after going unused in the first two games, he’ll get the nod against Dakota Hudson and the Rockies. The 28-year-old has not been effective thus far in 2024 with a 5.68 ERA and 1.68 WHIP over 19 innings, and he’s not a recommended streamer for this chance. Rotoworld Today, 9:15 am
     
  • Drawing start Sunday
    Fleming is slated to start Sunday's game against the Rockies at Coors Field, Kevin Gorman of TribLive.com reports.

    Advice: Fleming was called up from Triple-A Indianapolis on Friday but went unused out of the bullpen for the first two games of the Pirates' series in Colorado. He'll step into the rotation for the series finale Sunday as Pittsburgh looks to give each of their other starters an additional day of rest, but Fleming will likely head to the bullpen or return to Triple-A immediately after the start. Fleming had worked as a multi-inning reliever for Indianapolis prior to his call-up, covering at least two frames in each of his last four appearances while pitching to a 5.68 ERA and 1.15 WHIP in seven outings overall.

  • Cristian Javier (elbow) moved to 60-day IL
    Astros transferred RHP Cristian Javier from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day injured list.

    Advice: It’s a move that creates room on the 40-man roster for Luis Contreras. Javier will miss the remainder of the 2024 season and likely a portion of 2025 while he recovers from Tommy John surgery. Rotoworld Today, 9:02 am
     
  • Added as 27th man
    Basso joined the A's and will serve as the 27th man for Sunday's doubleheader against the Twins, Martin Gallegos of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Basso will provide depth to the Oakland bullpen, but it will likely be only a one-day stint in the big leagues. The lefty has struggled in the harsh pitching environments of the Pacific Coast League, allowing 18 runs in 21.1 innings since advancing from Double-A Midland earlier this season.
