  • Gregory Santos (lat) faces hitters on Saturday
    Gregory Santos (lat) faced hitters on Saturday in a live batting practice session.

    Advice: Santos continues to progress towards making his Seattle debut after a spring training lat issue put him on the shelf to open the year. There’s a chance he’s ready to bolster the Mariners’ high-leverage relief mix at some point in a couple weeks, barring any setbacks. Rotoworld Saturday, 12:12 pm
     
  • Works 4.2 innings
    Silseth (elbow) allowed five earned runs on eight hits and three walks while striking out two across 4.2 innings in a rehab outing with Triple-A Salt Lake on Friday.

    Advice: The surface stats aren't encouraging for Silseth, but he built up to 92 pitches. The Angels were originally expected to activate him and insert him back into the rotation this past Wednesday against the Athletics, but the big club ultimately had him make one more tune-up outing in the minors. After another poor showing Friday, Silseth has now allowed 14 earned runs across 12.1 frames with Salt Lake. The underwhelming results could cause the Angels to reassess his role in the short term, as he might be activated from the 60-day injured list and optioned to Triple-A once his 30-day rehab window draws to a close.

  • Scheduled for bullpen session
    Santos (lat) is set to throw a live bullpen session in Miami on Saturday, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Santos continues to ramp up his activity level as he recovers from a right lat strain that he's been dealing with since February. Saturday's session will mark the first time the right-hander will face live batters, and he's inching closer to a rehab assignment. Santos appeared in 60 games with the White Sox last season, posting a 3.39 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 66:17 K:BB over 66.1 frames. Rotowire.com Friday, 2:18 pm
     
  • Gregory Santos will throw live bullpen Saturday
    Gregory Santos (lat) is set to throw a live bullpen session in Miami on Saturday.

    Advice: The 24-year-old right-hander continues to work his way back from a right lat strain that has shelved him since spring training. Provided he avoids any setbacks, he’s expected to be an option to rejoin the Mariners at some point in July. Rotoworld Friday, 2:13 pm
     
  • Pushed back to next week
    Peterson will no longer start Sunday versus the Cubs after being pushed back in the Mets' rotation, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

    Advice: It's not clear when Peterson's next start will come, but it now figures to be early next week against the Yankees. Luis Severino has been bumped up to start Sunday in Chicago on regular rest. Rotowire.com Friday, 9:36 am

  • Allows three homers in no-decision
    Wilson did not factor into the decision in Thursday's loss to the Padres, allowing five runs on seven hits and two walks over 4.2 innings while striking out five.

    Advice: Wilson failed to retire five of the first seven batters he faced to open the contest, surrendering back-to-back homers to Manny Machado and Jackson Merrill in the first to put the Brewers in an early 4-1 hole. The right-hander would settle in over the next three frames before coughing up another long ball in the fifth. It was Wilson's first time this season in which he allowed multiple home runs in a start and he's given up at least five runs in two of his last three outings. He's also walked multiple batters in three consecutive starts. Rotowire.com Friday, 5:32 am

  • Bryse Wilson gives up five runs to Padres
    Bryse Wilson surrendered five runs in 4 2/3 innings Thursday against the Padres.

    Advice: Wilson was supposed to lose this one, but the Padres let him off the hook in the top of the ninth, only to succumb in the bottom of the inning. The Brewers and everyone else know that Wilson belongs in middle relief, and the team might eventually get back to the point at which that is feasible. For now, though, he’ll stick in the rotation and face the Rangers next week. Rotoworld Thursday, 11:17 pm

  • Allows two runs in no-decision
    Littell did not factor into the decision Thursday, allowing two runs on five hits and two walks over five innings against the Twins. He struck out five.

    Advice: Thursday represented a return to form for Littell, who held the Twins to single tallies in each of the second and third innings. Littell had posted a 7.71 ERA and 2.07 WHIP with four homers given up across three starts in June entering Thursday, including a season-worst six earned runs allowed in just two frames during his previous start. Although he was touched up for a homer for the seventh consecutive outing, it was also the first time in five starts he didn't allow at least three earned runs. He tentatively lines up for a home matchup with the Mariners next week. Rotowire.com Thursday, 7:28 pm

  • Collects 22nd save
    Clase tossed a perfect ninth inning Thursday, striking out one to earn the save against Seattle.

    Advice: Clase had allowed earned runs in consecutive appearances June 9 and 11 but has regained his form since, tossing his third consecutive clean outing Thursday to close out the game for the Guardians. Clase ranks first in the American League with 22 saves, ranking behind only Ryan Helsley of the Cardinals, as the latter has 24 to lead the major leagues. Through 35.1 innings this season, Clase has allowed only three earned runs for an ERA of 0.76 with a 0.62 WHIP and 36 strikeouts. Rotowire.com Thursday, 6:16 pm
