The Orioles selected Suarez's contract from Triple-A Norfolk on Tuesday.

The veteran right-hander re-signed with the Orioles on a minor-league deal last week after being designated for assignment and electing free agency, and he's now back in the majors with rosters expanding to 28 players Tuesday. Suarez has been a solid bullpen piece for Baltimore this year with a 3.93 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 38:19 K:BB over 55 innings.

The Angels reinstated Natera (back) from the 15-day injured list Tuesday.

Natera was on the 15-day injured list due to lower-back spasms that sprung up Aug. 15. The southpaw began a rehab assignment with Single-A Rancho Cucamonga on Friday and also made an appearance Sunday. Over the two games, the 26-year-old tossed two scoreless innings on zero hits, a walk and a strikeout.

The Rockies recalled Castano from Triple-A Albuquerque on Tuesday.

Castano has logged a 3.92 ERA and 17:6 K:BB across 20.2 innings with the Rockies this season. The 27-year-old is likely to be used as a multi-inning reliever in Colorado.

The Cubs recalled Ferguson from Triple-A Iowa on Tuesday.

Ferguson has put in some quality work for the Cubs this season in posting a 3.45 ERA, 0.77 WHIP and 19:2 K:BB over 15.2 innings. The 32-year-old will likely be used primarily in a middle-relief role.

The Brewers activated Romero (appendectomy) from the 15-day injured list Tuesday.

Romero underwent an appendectomy in mid-July when he was still a member of the Cardinals organization. He's ready for his Brewers debut now after making two scoreless rehab appearances.

The Mets recalled Ross from Triple-A Syracuse on Tuesday.

In 36.1 innings with Syracuse this season, Ross has posted a 6.94 ERA and 45:31 K:BB. The 26-year-old will be making his major-league debut when/if he gets into a game.

The Blue Jays activated Mantiply (knee) from the 60-day injured list Tuesday.

Mantiply is finally back in the saddle after working his way back from the arthroscopic surgery he underwent on his left knee in June. The veteran reliever will give manager John Schneider another lefty in the bullpen.

The Blue Jays recalled Tiedemann from Triple-A Buffalo on Tuesday.

Tiedemann was up to make his major-league debut in August, allowing one run over a 1.2-inning relief appearance. The left-hander has not gone any more than 1.2 innings in any outing this season and is slated to work out of the Toronto bullpen.

The Athletics recalled Tur from Triple-A Las Vegas on Tuesday.

Tur has been rocked for 17 runs over 4.2 innings covering three relief appearances for the Athletics this season. The 27-year-old has logged a 5.87 ERA and 77:41 K:BB across 61.1 frames during his time with Las Vegas.
