  • Kyle Muller (shoulder) begins rehab assignment
    Kyle Muller opened a rehab assignment with Triple-A Las Vegas by throwing a scoreless innings Tuesday.

    Advice: Muller has missed a month with left shoulder tendinitis. We’ve yet to hear whether the A’s intend to stretch him out before bringing him back to the majors. He was used exclusively as a reliever before getting hurt, but he topped out at 5 1/3 innings and threw four (on one day of rest!) in his last outing before going on the IL. Rotoworld Today, 7:59 am

  • Reid Detmers fans 10, gives up two homers in loss
    Reid Detmers struck out 10 but still gave up five runs in six innings Tuesday for Triple-A Salt Lake.

    Advice: Although he allowed only five hard-hit balls, two turned into homers and he still gave up eight hits anyway. Detmers has a 6.00 ERA and a 30/7 K/BB ratio over 24 innings in four starts since his demotion. Rotoworld Today, 7:54 am
     
  • Called up, working in bulk relief
    The Tigers recalled Montero from Tripe-A Toledo on Wednesday.

    Advice: Per Evan Woodbery of MLive.com, Montero is slated to serve as a bulk reliever for the Tigers in Wednesday's game against the Phillies, likely entering the game in the second or third inning once opening pitcher Tyler Holton exits the contest. Montero's lone prior big-league appearance came as a starter back on May 29, when he gave up four earned runs on five hits and one walk while striking out five across 4.1 innings in a loss to the Pirates. Montero owns a 5.03 ERA and 1.70 WHIP over 13 starts with Toledo this season. Rotowire.com Today, 7:54 am
     
  • Experiences thumb soreness in debut
    Scherzer said Monday that he was removed after five innings in his season debut in Sunday's 4-0 win over the Royals due to thumb soreness, MLB.com reports.

    Advice: The Rangers are monitoring the situation and have no plans yet to move his next start, which is scheduled for Friday in Baltimore. Scherzer was scheduled for a light bullpen session Tuesday, and if all went well, he should get the green light to take the hill Friday with few restrictions, if any.

  • Josiah Gray sharp on Tuesday in rehab outing
    Josiah Gray (elbow) allowed one run over six innings on Tuesday in a minor league rehab start for Triple-A Rochester.

    Advice: Gray struck out four, didn’t hand out a free pass, and got up to around 90 pitches in his latest rehab outing. The 26-year-old righty should be ready to return to Washington’s starting rotation at some point later this week or early next week. He’s been on the shelf since early April due to a flexor strain in his right elbow. Rotoworld Yesterday, 5:31 pm
     
  • Shifts to 60-day IL
    The Brewers transferred Gasser (elbow) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Tuesday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Gasser will be out for the rest of the season and most of the 2025 campaign after undergoing Tommy John surgery Monday, so his move to the 60-day IL is hardly a surprise. He'll give up his 40-man roster spot to right-hander Joel Kuhnel, whose contract was selected from Triple-A Nashville in a corresponding move. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 2:35 pm
     
  • Brewers transfer Robert Gasser to 60-day IL
    Brewers transferred LHP Robert Gasser to the 60-day injured list.

    Advice: Brewers manager Pat Murphy confirmed Tuesday that Gasser will miss 12-14 weeks after undergoing season-ending left elbow surgery earlier this week. The 25-year-old lefty is going to miss at least the first half, if not all, of the 2025 campaign as well. Rotoworld Yesterday, 2:24 pm
     
  • Set to pitch Wednesday
    Tigers manager A.J. Hinch said Tuesday that Montero will be called up from Triple-A Toledo to pitch Wednesday against the Phillies, though it hasn't been decided whether the right-hander will start or work out of the bullpen as a primary pitcher, Jason Beck of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: The 23-year-old joined the Tigers ahead of Tuesday's contest and is set to make his second MLB appearance in Wednesday's series finale. Montero made his big-league debut in late May and surrendered four runs on five hits with five strikeouts across 4.1 innings. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 1:16 pm
     
  • Likely to start Wednesday
    Montero is expected to start Wednesday's game against the Phillies, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: While the Tigers haven't announced anything yet, they are listing Wednesday's starter as TBD and Montero was spotted in the clubhouse at Comerica Park on Tuesday. Mason Englert is expected to be optioned to Triple-A Toledo in a corresponding move. Montero, 23, allowed four runs in 4.1 innings in his major-league debut versus the Pirates last month. It would appear Wednesday's appearance will be another spot start for the righty and he'll head back to Toledo after the game. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:16 pm
