  • Diamondbacks' Andrew Hoffmann: Up from Reno

    The Diamondbacks recalled Hoffmann from Triple-A Reno on Friday.

    Hoffmann hasn't pitched in the minors since Sept. 4 due to complications with his elbow, but he is evidently feeling well enough to help the Diamondbacks' bullpen during the final series of the regular season. The 25-year-old carries a 6.55 ERA and 2.00 WHIP through 11 innings in the majors this year and likely won't pitch outside of low-leverage situations while with Arizona.

  • Brock Stewart RP | LAD

    Dodgers' Brock Stewart: Scheduled for surgery

    Manager Dave Roberts said Friday that Stewart will undergo season-ending surgery on his right shoulder, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

    Stewart has been attempting to work his way back from shoulder inflammation since mid-August, but he'll now opt to go under the knife to address the issue and miss the postseason. It's currently unclear whether the 33-year-old reliever will be able to pitch by the start of spring training next year, but a recovery timeline may emerge following his procedure.

  • DL Hall RP | MIL

    Brewers' DL Hall: Activation pending

    Hall (oblique) is expected to be activated from the 15-day injured list this weekend, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports Friday.

    Hall has been sidelined since Aug. 16 due to a strained right oblique, and he's slated to return this weekend and pitch in a contest before the end of the regular season. Hall has served as a long reliever for the Brewers this season, but injuries have limited him to 19 big-league appearances. The 26-year-old has posted a 3.35 ERA and a 27:17 K:BB across 37.2 innings for Milwaukee in 2025.

  • Trevor Megill RP | MIL

    Brewers' Trevor Megill: Likely to return Sunday

    Megill (elbow) threw a simulated inning Friday and is likely to be activated from the 15-day injured list to pitch in Sunday's regular-season finale, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

    Megill threw a bullpen Tuesday and faced batters Friday, completing both sessions without a hitch. He's set up to come off the injured list to make an appearance in Sunday's contest, knocking off some rust before the NLDS, which begins Oct. 4. Megill hasn't appeared in a game since Aug. 24 due to a right flexor strain.

  • Bryce Jarvis RP | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Bryce Jarvis: Recalled from Reno

    The Diamondbacks recalled Jarvis from Triple-A Reno on Friday.

    Jarvis has been with Reno since early September, but he'll rejoin the 28-man roster Friday in place of Nabil Crismatt. Jarvis has posted a 6.10 ERA in 20.2 innings with Arizona this season and an 8.47 ERA in 78.2 innings for Reno.

  • Hayden Harris RP | ATL

    Braves' Hayden Harris: Rejoins big-league bullpen

    Atlanta recalled Harris from Triple-A Gwinnett on Friday, Grant McAuley of the Marietta Daily Journal reports.

    Harris will provide manager Brian Snitker with another bullpen arm for the final series of the season versus the Pirates. The southpaw yielded one run over 2.2 relief innings earlier this month for Atlanta.

  • Kyle Leahy RP | STL

    Cardinals' Kyle Leahy: In line to start bullpen game

    Leahy is lined up to serve as the Cardinals' opening pitcher for Sunday's game against the Cubs, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

    As long as Leahy isn't needed to pitch in relief Friday or Saturday, he'll lead off a bullpen game in the final day of the regular season. Leahy has never started a game at the big-league level, but the Cardinals plan to stretch him out next season for a potential spot in the rotation. The 28-year-old hasn't gone more than two innings in any of his last 15 appearances, so his workload will be limited Sunday.

  • Edwin Diaz RP | LAD

    Mets' Edwin Diaz: Secures 28th save

    Diaz allowed a hit in a scoreless inning to earn the save in Thursday's 8-5 win over the Cubs.

    Diaz gave up a leadoff single to Carson Kelly but erased it with a game-ending double play from Dansby Swanson. It's been a strong September for Diaz, who has allowed just one run while posting a 17:3 K:BB over 11.2 innings, though the Mets haven't given him a ton of chances to rack up saves. For the season, he's 28-for-31 in save conversions while pitching to a 1.71 ERA, 0.92 WHIP and 96:21 K:BB through 63.1 innings.

  • Jalen Beeks RP | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Jalen Beeks: Takes loss as opener

    Beeks (5-3) took the loss against the Dodgers on Thursday, allowing a solo home run while striking out one batter in one inning.

    Beeks was tabbed as Arizona's opener for Thursday's series finale. He got through the first inning cleanly, but he was brought out for the second and subsequently gave up a solo home run to Freddie Freeman. Beeks was pulled after the homer, but he was stuck with the loss after the Diamondbacks failed to tack on any runs. Beeks sits at a 3.77 ERA and 1.08 WHIP across 57.1 innings this season.

  • Pirates' Braxton Ashcraft: Falters late vs. Reds

    Ashcraft (4-4) took the loss Thursday against Cincinnati, allowing two runs on eight hits and a walk over 4.1 innings. He struck out five.

    Ashcraft was sharp early, holding the Reds scoreless through his first four innings, but he stumbled in the fifth, allowing a pair of runs after giving up four straight hits to open the frame. While it didn't end on a high note, Ashcraft had a strong rookie campaign as a swingman in Pittsburgh, posting a 2.71 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 71:24 K:BB across 69.2 innings. He'll likely be in the mix to claim a rotation spot in 2026.
