    • Twins option Caleb Boushley to Triple-A
      Twins optioned RHP Caleb Boushley to Triple-A St. Paul.

      Advice: Boushley heads back to the minors ahead of Friday’s series opener against the Rangers. The 30-year-old righty made just one relief appearance in his brief stint with the Twins. Rotoworld 10 minutes ago
       
    • Takes sixth loss
      Heaney (0-6) took the loss Thursday against the Phillies, allowing four runs (three earned) on nine hits and two walks over 3.1 innings. He struck out one.

      Advice: Heaney held the Phillies scoreless until J.T. Realmuto's leadoff homer in the third inning before they'd tack on three more runs in the fourth. It was ultimately another tough outing for the left-hander, who's failed to make it out of the fourth inning in consecutive starts. Heaney's ERA sits at 4.69 with a 1.38 WHIP and 45:13 K:BB across 10 starts (48 innings) this season. He'll be looking for his first win in his next outing, currently scheduled for next week against Arizona. Rotowire.com 50 minutes ago

    • Ben Brown tosses four scoreless frames vs. Braves
      Ben Brown tossed four shutout innings on Thursday in a no-decision against the Braves.

      Advice: Brown took the ball on Thursday afternoon at Wrigley Field for a spot start in place of veteran Kyle Hendricks and finished with six strikeouts over four scoreless frames. The 24-year-old righty allowed just one hit and a pair of walks as he induced 10 swinging strikes, with nine of them coming on his curveball, and finished with a pedestrian 27 percent CSW. He’s pitched extremely well this season with a 3.20 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 45/15 K/BB ratio across 39 1/3 innings (12 appearances, five starts). He’ll presumably take the ball on Tuesday against the division-rival Brewers and is worthy of a speculative roster spot in deeper mixed leagues. Rotoworld Today, 2:40 pm

    • 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 Today, 1:54 pm
       
    • 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 Today, 1:51 pm
       
    • 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 Today, 1:47 pm
       
    • 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 Today, 1:46 pm
       
    • 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 Today, 1:43 pm
       
    • 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 Today, 1:42 pm
