  • Receives promotion
    Atlanta recalled Wall from Triple-A Gwinnett on Monday.

    Advice: It's possible the left-handed hitting Wall could get some regular looks in the outfield if Atlanta prefers to limit Adam Duvall's exposure to right-handed pitching. If that happens, Wall would make for an interesting deep-league addition in fantasy leagues given his speed, as he's stolen 11 bases this year at Gwinnett and swiped 52 bags there last year. He's capable of handling all three outfield spots. Rotowire.com 5 minutes ago
     
  • Sent back to minors
    Atlanta optioned Martinez to Triple-A Gwinnett on Monday.

    Advice: Even with Atlanta battling multiple injuries in its outfield, Martinez has hardly played, making just one start and receiving only 10 plate appearances during his three weeks in the majors. Forrest Wall is absorbing his roster spot. Rotowire.com 10 minutes ago
     
  • Placed on IL with elbow injury
    Atlanta placed Waldrep on the 15-day injured list Monday with right elbow inflammation.

    Advice: It was reported Sunday that Waldrep was being optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett, but he's landed on the IL instead after reporting elbow soreness following Sunday's outing versus the Rays. It's not clear how long Waldrep might be out, but he's sure to be optioned to Gwinnett once deemed healthy. Waldrep has allowed 13 runs with a 3:8 K:BB over seven innings in two starts with the big club. Rotowire.com 13 minutes ago
     
  • Two hits in return
    Cruz went 2-for-5 with a double and two RBI on Sunday against the Rockies.

    Advice: Cruz returned from a two-game absence caused by ankle soreness but showed no ill effects. He has five multi-hit performances across 11 games in June while maintaining a .300 average with eight RBI and eight runs scored. Rotowire.com 15 minutes ago
     
  • Rejoins Seattle on MiLB pact
    Bowman signed a minor-league contract with the Mariners on Sunday.

    Advice: Just two days after he elected free agency, Bowman made his return to the Mariners organization and reported to Triple-A Tacoma. He was thrust into action right away for Tacoma, striking out two over a scoreless inning in Sunday's 13-3 win over Round Rock. Bowman has previously made 10 appearances in the majors this season across stops with the Twins, Diamondbacks and Mariners, accruing a 5.40 ERA and 1.20 WHIP over 15 innings.

  • Productive in Sunday's win
    Triolo went 2-for-5 with two RBI and two runs scored Sunday against the Rockies.

    Advice: Triolo drew his fourth straight start, though two of those came with Oneil Cruz briefly sidelined. He went only 3-for-14 with seven strikeouts in that span, and he's likely to return to a reserve role so long as Cruz, Nick Gonzales and Ke'Bryan Hayes remain healthy. Rotowire.com 20 minutes ago

  • Drives in three
    Delay went 1-for-3 with a double, a walk and three RBI on Sunday against the Rockies.

    Advice: Delay drew his first start since being recalled Saturday and delivered a key three-RBI double in the sixth inning to put the Pirates up 6-0. He's likely to remain the backup catcher behind Yasmani Grandal while Henry Davis (concussion) is sidelined, but Delay could push for more regular at-bats with Grandal performing poorly.

  • Becomes free agent
    Castillo elected free agency Sunday.

    Advice: Castillo cleared waivers after the Twins designated him for assignment Wednesday, and rather than sticking around in the Minnesota organization as pitching depth at Triple-A St. Paul, the 30-year-old will look to find work elsewhere. Prior to being pushed off the 40-man roster, Castillo made five relief appearances for Minnesota and gave up two earned runs on five hits and seven walks over seven innings.

  • Removed from Sunday's game
    Yoshida was hit by a pitch on the hand during the seventh inning and removed from Sunday's game against the Yankees, Julian McWilliams of The Boston Globe reports.

    Advice: Boston manager Alex Cora said Yoshida is okay but will not start Monday in Toronto with a left-hander on the mound. The manager expects Yoshida back in the lineup Tuesday. Rotowire.com 37 minutes ago
