  • Brewers' Lyon Richardson: DFA'd by Brewers

    The Brewers designated Richardson for assignment Tuesday.

    Richardson appeared in one game after getting called up from Triple-A on Saturday, during which he gave up zero hits and a walk over 1.2 scoreless innings. He'll now lose his place on the active and 40-man rosters to make room for Bryse Wilson, who signed a major-league deal with the Crew on Tuesday.

  • Diamondbacks' Geraldo Perdomo: Out of lineup Tuesday

    Perdomo (knee) is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rockies.

    Perdomo was removed from Monday's game against Colorado with left knee soreness and needs another day to recover. With Perdomo on the bench, Ildemaro Vargas is starting at shortstop and batting eighth Tuesday.

  • Jared Young 1B | NYM

    Mets' Jared Young: Absent from lineup Tuesday

    Young is not in Tuesday's lineup against Atlanta.

    Despite going 2-for-4 with two RBI and a run scored during Monday's series opener, Young will ride the pine Tuesday. Gabriel Arias will make his first start at first base and bat ninth for the Mets.

  • Zac Veen LF | COL

    Rockies' Zac Veen: Called up to Colorado

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

    Veen will join the big club for the first time in 2026 after he logged 37 plate appearances with the Rockies last season. The 24-year-old has been productive at Albuquerque in 2026, slashing .327/.402/.635 with 24 home runs and 19 stolen bases across 445 plate appearances. The Rockies designated Edouard Julien for assignment to make room on the active roster for Veen, who could be a candidate to fill the strong side of a platoon in the corner outfield.

  • Nathan Church CF | STL

    Cardinals' Nathan Church: Exiting lineup Tuesday

    Church is out of the lineup for Tuesday's matchup with the Phillies.

    With Philadelphia sending southpaw Cristopher Sanchez to the hill on Tuesday, the left-handed-hitting Church will ride the pine. Everson Pereira will make his first start in center field and bat eighth for the Cardinals.

  • Alan Rangel RP | PHI

    Phillies' Alan Rangel: Optioned to Lehigh Valley

    Philadelphia demoted Rangel to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Tuesday, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.

    Rangel was roughed up in his lone outing Monday since returning to the big-league club on August 9. The right-hander went 2.2 innings, allowing three runs on six hits and a walk while striking out three against St. Louis. The Phillies elevated Alex McFarlane to replace Rangel on the active roster.

  • Alex McFarlane RP | PHI

    Phillies' Alex McFarlane: Called up to majors

    Philadelphia recalled McFarlane from Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Tuesday, Todd Zolecki of MLB.com reports.

    McFarlane will begin his second stint with the big-league club this season after being recalled Tuesday. The 25-year-old most recently appeared at the big-league level July 22, recording a scoreless inning against the Dodgers. The right-hander has dazzled with Double-A Reading and Triple-A Lehigh Valley, pitching to a 1.83 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and 55:20 K:BB in 39.1 innings. The Phillies optioned Alan Rangel to Lehigh Valley to open a spot on the 26-man roster.

  • James Wood RF | WAS

    Nationals' James Wood: Not expected back this week

    Manager Blake Butera said Tuesday that Wood (oblique) is not expected to be activated from the injured list when eligible later this week, Danielle Allentuck of The Washington Post reports.

    Wood has progressed to fielding drills and throwing from 45 feet, and he's expected to take dry swings with the bat Tuesday. He suffered a strained left oblique Aug. 3 and has missed the Nationals' past six contests. Dylan Crews has been handling right field in Wood's absence.

  • Zach McCambley RP | CIN

    Reds' Zach McCambley: Sent to Louisville

    The Reds optioned McCambley to Triple-A Louisville on Tuesday.

    McCambley appeared in three games, allowing one earned run over three innings with the big-league club before being sent back to Triple-A on Tuesday. The right-hander has spent most of his time this year in Triple-A with both Louisville and Jacksonville (Miami's Triple-A affiliate), registering a 4-1 record, 2.57 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 60:23 K:BB in 49 innings. With Nick Lodolo (finger) returning from the IL, Cincinnati needed to clear a roster spot.

  • Michael Toglia 1B | CIN

    Reds' Michael Toglia: Joins big-league club

    The Reds selected Toglia's contract from Triple-A Louisville on Tuesday.

    Toglia has spent the entire season at Louisville, where he slashed .273/.373/.547 with 22 homers, 65 RBI, 49 runs scored, four stolen bases and a 56:103 BB:K across 402 trips to the plate. The switch-hitting Toglia possesses plus power but owns an inflated 35.0 percent strikeout rate spanning 1,067 big-league plate appearances. He has the ability to play first base and right field and will likely see some at-bats at designated hitter.
