  • Continues stellar run
    Gil (6-1) earned the win Thursday over the Mariners, allowing just one hit and two walks while striking out eight in 6.1 scoreless innings.

    Advice: Gil continues to look like a star in the Yankees' rotation -- the 25-year-old right-hander now has five straight wins and quality starts, allowing just two runs over 30.2 innings in that span. He's lowered his ERA to 2.11 on the year with a 1.01 WHIP and 70:29 K:BB through 10 starts (55.1 innings). GIl will look to keep rolling in his next outing, currently scheduled for next week on the road against the Angels. Rotowire.com 31 minutes ago

    New Player Note
     
  • Outrighted to Double-A
    White cleared waivers Thursday and was sent outright to Double-A Somerset.

    Advice: The Yankees claimed White off waivers from Tampa Bay on May 9, and he remained on the 40-man for just 11 days before being DFA'd on Monday. He has appeared in two games for Somerset since joining the Yankees organization, allowing two earned runs across two-thirds of an inning. Rotowire.com 44 minutes ago
     
  • Designated for assignment
    Peralta was designated for assignment by the Mariners on Thursday, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Seattle has scooped up Eduardo Salazar off waivers from the Dodgers and Peralta is the 40-man roster casualty. Peralta, 26, has spent all of this season at Triple-A Tacoma, putting up a 9.24 ERA and 12:8 K:BB over 12.2 frames. Rotowire.com 47 minutes ago
     
  • Grabs save Thursday
    Rogers earned the save in Thursday's 7-6 win over the Pirates, working around a hit in a scoreless ninth inning.

    Advice: Rogers was called upon to protect a one-run lead in the ninth, with Camilo Doval having pitched three times in the last four days. The Pirates would get a couple of baserunners via an error and a Bryan Reynolds single, but Rogers would ultimately escape unscathed, securing his first save this season. The 33-year-old sidearmer has put together another solid start to the campaign -- his ERA is down to 2.19 with a 0.97 WHIP and 16 strikeouts with no walks across 24.2 innings. While Doval is firmly established as the closer in San Francisco, Rogers is the clear number-two option. Rotowire.com 51 minutes ago
     
  • Claimed by M's
    The Mariners claimed Salazar off waivers from the Dodgers on Thursday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: After pitching two scoreless innings for the Dodgers on May 15, Salazar was optioned to Triple-A and later designated for assignment. He'll once again hold a 40-man roster spot with his new club, though he will begin his tenure with the Mariners at Triple-A Tacoma. The 26-year-old right-hander has logged a 5.61 ERA and 1.78 WHIP through 33.2 innings across seven starts in the minors. Rotowire.com 52 minutes ago
     
  • M’s claim Eduardo Salazar off waivers from Dodgers
    Mariners claimed RHP Eduardo Salazar off waivers from the Dodgers.

    Advice: Los Angeles was probably hoping to sneak Salazar through waivers after designating him for assignment earlier this week, but he’ll head to Triple-A Tacoma as extra relief depth for Seattle. The 26-year-old righty threw a pair of scoreless frames in his lone appearance for the Dodgers this season. Rotoworld 55 minutes ago
     
  • Mariners designate Sammy Peralta for assignment
    Mariners designated LHP Sammy Peralta for assignment.

    Advice: Peralta has been jettisoned from Seattle’s 40-man roster to make room for newly-added reliever Eduardo Salazar. The 26-year-old southpaw didn’t make an appearance for Seattle after being claimed off waivers last month from the White Sox. Rotoworld 56 minutes ago
     
  • Yankees outright Colby White to Double-A
    Yankees sent RHP Colby White outright to Double-A Somerset.

    Advice: White passed through waivers unclaimed after being designated for assignment earlier this week and will remain with New York as a project reliever. The 25-year-old has yet to ascend to the big leagues and was claimed off waivers earlier this month from Tampa Bay. Rotoworld 57 minutes ago
     
  • Another strong outing
    Skenes didn't factor into the decision Thursday against the Giants, allowing one run on six hits and a walk over six innings. He struck out three.

    Advice: While Thursday's outing wasn't as dominant as Skene's 11-strikeout performance in his last start, the rookie right-hander was still effective, coaxing a pair of key double-play balls to limit the Giants to just one run. However, the Pirates bullpen would implode late, leaving Skenes with a no-decision in an eventual 7-6 loss. Skenes now sports a 2.25 ERA with a 1.00 WHIP and an impressive 21:4 K:BB through his first three starts (16 innings). He's currently in line for a road matchup with the Tigers in his next outing.
