Angels Re-Sign Shaun Anderson To Minor League Deal
The Angels have re-signed Shaun Anderson to a new minor league contract, according to the right-hander’s MLB.com profile page. Anderson makes another quick return to the organization after opting for free agency on Wednesday over an outright assignment to Triple-A. This has been the pattern for Anderson’s last two seasons, since he first signed a […]
Nationals Notes: Abrams, Early, Gray
The Nationals announced in mid-August that shortstop CJ Abrams would transition to second base. The two-time All-Star has had a stellar season at the plate, but he’s been among the worst defenders in the league. Manager Blake Butera further clarified the plan this week, telling reporters (including Spencer Nusbaum of The Athletic) that Abrams would […]
Blue Jays Outright Daz Cameron
Outfielder Daz Cameron has cleared waivers and been outrighted to Triple-A, per his MLB.com transactions log. The Blue Jays designated him for assignment on Tuesday. Cameron has been outrighted before, so he can reject the assignment and choose free agency. He’ll most likely stick with Buffalo and wait for another chance with the big-league club. […]
The Opener: Guardians Walk-Offs, White Sox Sluggers, Campusano
For the first time since 2002, the A’s hit four home runs in one inning (h/t Martin Gallegos of MLB.com). Max Muncy, Alika Williams, Jeff McNeil, and Zack Gelof all went deep in the third inning on Friday. It wasn’t a Sacramento situation, either. The game was in Seattle, against ace Logan Gilbert, no less. […]
Diamondbacks To Activate Corbin Burnes On Tuesday
Diamondbacks right-hander Corbin Burnes is set to rejoin the club early next week, manager Torey Lovullo hinted to reporters, including Alex Weiner of Arizona Sports. Burnes has not pitched in the Majors since June of last year due to Tommy John surgery and, more recently, a teres major strain. Per Lovullo, the team may opt […]
Yankees Notes: Weathers, Cruz, Grisham
Injured Yankees lefty Ryan Weathers will begin a throwing program this weekend, manager Aaron Boone told reporters today, including Chris Kirschner of The Athletic. Weathers has been on the 15-day injured list since August 23rd with a left forearm flexor strain. Boone initially expected Weathers to be shut down for two to four weeks when […]
Reds To Activate Graham Ashcraft Off 60-Day IL
The Reds are expected to activate right-hander Graham Ashcraft off the 60-day injured list on Sunday, per Charlie Goldsmith of Charlie’s Chalkboard. Ashcraft has been out for over three months with a right forearm UCL sprain. The team’s 40-man roster is currently full, so a corresponding move will be needed to activate Ashcraft. Spencer Steer, […]
Matt Brash Shut Down With Lat Inflammation
The Mariners have shut down reliever Matt Brash, per Ryan Divish of The Seattle Times. Brash has been on the injured list retroactive to June 9th with a right lat strain, and a recent MRI showed more inflammation in that area, though he has no structural damage. The righty won’t throw for eight weeks, so […]
MLB Mailbag: Rookie Of The Year, Contreras, Bello, Torkelson, Gorman
This week’s mailbag at MLBTR will tackle questions on the 2026 Rookie of the Year races, William Contreras’ future in Milwaukee, Brayan Bello’s trade candidacy, the outlooks for Spencer Torkelson and Nolan Gorman in Detroit and St. Louis, and more. (Note: questions are lightly edited for clarity and brevity.) Let’s get into it! How do […]
Rays Place Shane McClanahan On IL With Forearm Tightness
The Rays announced that left-hander Shane McClanahan has been placed on the 15-day injured list with left forearm tightness. Right-hander Alex Cook has been recalled as the corresponding move. Thus far, the Rays have not provided many details about the severity of the injury. For what it’s worth, McClanahan tells Marc Topkin of the Tampa […]
Royals Outright Drew Waters
The Royals announced that outfielder Drew Waters cleared outright waivers and has been assigned to Triple-A Omaha. He has the right to elect free agency but the Royals didn’t say whether or not he would do so. Waters, now 27, was once a prospect of note with Atlanta. He was sent to Kansas City in […]

Astros Place Steven Okert On Injured List
The Astros announced that left-hander Steven Okert has been placed on the 15-day injured list, retroactive to September 1, due to a right hamstring strain. Fellow southpaw Bryan King has been recalled to take his place on the roster. Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle was among those to pass along the news. It’s an […]
Giants Claim Joel Kuhnel
2:40pm: Per Susan Slusser of The San Francisco Chronicle, the corresponding move is actually catcher Jesús Rodríguez transferring to the 60-day IL. He landed on the 10-day IL August 1 due to right elbow neuritis. Evidently, the Giants don’t expect him back this year, as his 60-day period will extend beyond the end of the […]
The Guardians’ Looming Outfield Decisions
Outfield production has been a persistent flaw for the Guardians for several seasons now. Dating back to 2021, Cleveland outfielders have posted a collective .247/.313/.367 batting line — about 8% worse than league average, by measure of wRC+ (which weights for home park and league run-scoring environment). That may not seem all that bleak, but […]
Hunter Dobbins Undergoes Elbow Surgery
September 4: Goold’s report indicates that Dobbins had a procedure on his UCL but it was not quite a full Tommy John surgery. His earlier reconstruction, from his 2021 surgery, was not replaced but rather mended the ligament. This week’s surgery also repaired his flexor tendon. September 3: Cardinals pitcher Hunter Dobbins underwent reconstructive elbow […]
Pirates Reinstate Konnor Griffin, Designate Christian Bethancourt For Assignment
The Pirates announced that infielder Konnor Griffin has been reinstated from the 60-day injured list. In a corresponding move, catcher Christian Bethancourt has been designated for assignment. The Bucs also made a swap on the pitching side of the roster, recalling right-hander Isaac Mattson and optioning left-hander Brandon Eisert. Alex Stumpf of Book-Rule Bucs was […]
Diamondbacks Designate Jorge Barrosa For Assignment
The Diamondbacks announced that outfielder Tommy Troy has been reinstated from the 10-day injured list. In a corresponding move, fellow outfielder Jorge Barrosa has been designated for assignment. Barrosa, 25, was signed as an amateur out of Venezuela in 2017. Prospect evaluators generally praised his speed and his defense. Offensively, the switch-hitter showed a good […]
Rockies Claim Hayden Harris
The Rockies announced that they have claimed left-hander Hayden Harris off waivers from the Braves. Atlanta designated him for assignment earlier this week. Colorado had an open 40-man roster spot and is assigning Harris to Triple-A Albuquerque, so no corresponding moves are needed. Harris, 27, is a side-arming lefty with a very limited big league […]
Reds Select Carlos Jorge
September 4: The Reds have now officially selected Jorge and transferred Toglia to the 60-day IL. Ivan Johnson has been optioned to Triple-A to open an active roster spot. September 3: The Reds are set to select the contract of outfielder Carlos Jorge from Triple-A Louisville, as first reported by Mike Rodriguez. Cincinnati has a […]

Ky Bush Shut Down With Lat Strain
The White Sox have shut down left-hander Ky Bush due to a lat strain, per Scott Merkin of MLB.com. He won’t return this season. He is already on the 60-day injured list and will stay there through the end of the campaign. That will make it two completely lost seasons for Bush, who underwent Tommy […]
The Opener: Dodgers, Crochet, Sale vs. Sanchez
Catcher Adley Rutschman homered twice in his return to Camden Yards. He launched a pair of homers against the Red Sox as a member of the Orioles earlier this year. Rutschman is the first player with a two-homer game for two different teams against each other in the same season (h/t OptaSTATS on X). 1. […]
Ben Brown Won’t Return This Season
Cubs right-hander Ben Brown has been out for a few months due to a stress reaction in his neck. Today, manager Craig Counsell informed reporters that Brown won’t be able to make it back in the remainder of the season. Taylor McGregor of Marquee Sports Network was among those to pass along the update. Brown […]
Pirates To Sign Kyler Fedko To Minor League Deal
The Pirates have agreed to a minor league contract with outfielder Kyler Fedko, as first reported by Rich Walsh of KDKA-TV. Colin Beazley of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette confirmed the news, noting that Fedko will formally sign his contract tomorrow. The Twins drafted Fedko in 2021. He has never been a highly-ranked prospect, but he finally […]
