  • Optioned to Triple-A
    Hernandez was optioned to Triple-A Sugar Land on Sunday, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: No corresponding move was announced, but the Astros are expected to have a fresh arm in the clubhouse soon to replace Hernandez in the bullpen. Hernandez worked 3.2 innings in relief of Spencer Arrighetti on Saturday, allowing just one run on three hits while striking out five. He should get another big-league opportunity before long.

  • Cardinals bring back Ryan Loutos from Memphis
    Cardinals recalled RHP Ryan Loutos from Triple-A Memphis.

    Advice: Loutos is up to take the roster spot of Kyle Gibson with Gibson going on the bereavement list. He’ll likely head back to Memphis when Gibson returns in no more than three days. Rotoworld 15 minutes ago
     
  • Kyle Gibson placed on bereavement list
    Cardinals placed RHP Kyle Gibson on the bereavement list.

  • Drawing start Sunday
    Blanco will start Sunday's game against the Tigers, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Heading into the weekend, Blanco wasn't expected to make a start against the Tigers, but he ended up getting pushed up in the pitching schedule after Justin Verlander had his turn in the rotation skipped due to a neck injury. As a result of the change in the pitching schedule, Blanco no longer lines up for two starts during the upcoming week. After Sunday's outing, the right-hander is on track to make his next start next weekend versus the Orioles in Houston. Rotowire.com 22 minutes ago
     
  • Atlanta options Kerr to Triple-A Gwinnett
    Braves optioned LHP Ray Kerr to Triple-A Gwinnett.

    Advice: Kerr has made the trip from Gwinnett to Atlanta and vice versa a couple of times in 2024, and that is likely to continue through the campaign. He’s down to make room for Grant Holmes after Holmes had his contract selected from Gwinnett in the corresponding transaction. Rotoworld 30 minutes ago
     
  • Atlanta recalls Ynoa, placed him on 60-day IL
    Braves recalled RHP Huascar Ynoa and placed him on the 60-day injured list with a right elbow stress reaction.

    Advice: It’s a procedural move that takes Ynoa off the 40-man roster and gives Atlanta space to select the contract of Grant Holmes. Ynoa’s injury will keep him out through the All-Star break, and there’s a chance he won’t be able to help the staff until 2025. Rotoworld 34 minutes ago
     
  • Fans six in win
    Fedde (5-1) picked up the win over the Diamondbacks on Saturday, allowing two runs on eight hits over six innings while striking out six.

    Advice: Fedde got himself into trouble early and often, surrendering leadoff hits in four of his six innings of work. However, the right-hander was able to limit the damage to just two runs, one of which came across in the opening frame. He threw only 12 first-pitch strikes (out of 26) but still managed to hang on for his first win since May 14 against the Nationals. Fedde has now logged quality starts in back-to-back outings and in three of his last five starts overall. He also carries an impressive 17:1 K:BB through three June starts.

  • Summoned from Triple-A
    The Cardinals recalled Loutos from Triple-A Memphis on Sunday.

    Advice: He'll begin his second stint of the season with the big club after he received his first call-up May 20 and made two scoreless appearances out of the bullpen before being sent back to Memphis on June 4. Loutos is likely to handle a low-leverage relief role while he's up with the Cardinals. Rotowire.com 50 minutes ago
     
  • Goes on bereavement leave
    The Cardinals placed Gibson on the bereavement list Sunday.

    Advice: Gibson has left the team following a death in the family. Per MLB rules, players placed on the bereavement list have to be deactivated for a minimum of three days and a maximum of seven days, making it unclear if Gibson will be ready to rejoin the team ahead of his next scheduled start. The Cardinals had confirmed Gibson as their starting pitcher for Wednesday's game in Miami, though that announcement was made prior to his placement on the bereavement list.
