  • Returns to majors
    The Twins recalled Funderburk from Triple-A St. Paul on Friday.

    Advice: Just two days after being optioned to Triple-A, Funderburk will return to the Twins' bullpen with Brock Stewart (shoulder) headed for the injured list. Funderburk owns a solid 3.38 ERA and 1.27 WHIP through 13.1 innings this season, though he's surrendered three runs across four frames spanning his last two outings. He will serve in middle relief while Stewart is sidelined. Rotowire.com 39 minutes ago
     
  • Exits Friday's game
    Bailey (foot) left in the second inning of Friday's game against the Phillies, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Bailey took a foul ball to his foot in the first inning. He remained in the game but was replaced in the top of the second inning by Tom Murphy. Rotowire.com 41 minutes ago
     
  • Lands on IL
    The Twins placed Stewart on the 15-day injured list Friday with right shoulder tendinitis.

    Advice: Stewart's scoreless streak came to an end during Wednesday's win over the White Sox, as he allowed a home run to Korey Lee in the seventh inning. He'll now miss at least the next two weeks due to his shoulder, leaving Minnesota without one of its most dominant relievers through the first month of the season. Kody Funderburk was recalled from Triple-A St. Paul in a corresponding move. Rotowire.com 43 minutes ago
     
  • Could return for homestand
    Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Friday that Treinen (chest) could be activated from the 15-day injured list during the weekend series against Atlanta, Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times reports.

    Advice: Treinen appeared in back-to-back games with Triple-A Oklahoma on Wednesday and Thursday, allowing one hit over two frames while striking out three over that span. Treinen's return to the Dodgers' bullpen would be welcome one with Joe Kelly dealing with a right groin injury. Rotowire.com 48 minutes ago

  • Throws BP session
    Kershaw (shoulder) threw a bullpen session Friday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: Kershaw has been limited to throwing from flat ground, and Friday was the first time he's thrown off the mound since undergoing offseason shoulder surgery. The veteran southpaw threw 15 pitches ahead of Friday's game against Atlanta, and manager Dave Roberts said Kershaw "came out well" from the bullpen session, per J.P. Hoornstra of Dodgers Nation. Kershaw is not expected to return until after the All-Star break, but it's another positive step in his rehab program. Rotowire.com 53 minutes ago
     
  • Clayton Kershaw (shoulder) throws first bullpen
    Clayton Kershaw (shoulder) threw his first bullpen session on Friday since undergoing surgery on his left shoulder.

    Advice: The 36-year-old southpaw looks to be right on schedule in his recovery. The Dodgers have yet to give any sort of concrete timeline on when they anticipate him being ready to join the rotation, though the early estimates were at some point around the All-Star break. As long as he continues to progress, there’s no reason to doubt that timeline. Rotoworld 55 minutes ago
