Dodgers' Kris Bubic: Joins Dodgers' bullpen
The Dodgers activated Bubic (shoulder) from the 60-day injured list Wednesday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
Bubic hasn't pitched in the majors since mid-May when he was in the Royals' rotation. The Dodgers will deploy him as a reliever after he tossed 5.2 shutout frames with a 9:2 K:BB in six rehab appearances. Bubic is coming back from elbow and shoulder woes.

Nationals' CJ Abrams: Back in Nationals' lineup
Abrams (neck) will start at second base and bat cleanup in Wednesday's contest versus the Phillies.
Abrams was unable to play Tuesday because of neck tightness, but he's ready to roll after one day of rest. It's the sixth start at second base this season for Abrams, who has split time between both spots in the middle infield over the last two-plus weeks.

Brewers' Kyle Harrison: Drawing start Thursday
Harrison will start Thursday's game in Pittsburgh, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Harrison's last appearance came in relief last week, and he was charged with four runs without recording an out against the Reds. In his last five starts, the left-hander has logged a 6.95 ERA, 2.23 WHIP and 23:12 K:BB over 22 innings. Given those struggles, Harrison will not be guaranteed any more starts beyond Thursday.

Dodgers' Josue De Paula: Exiting starting lineup
De Paula is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game in Cincinnati.
De Paula made five straight starts upon his promotion to the big leagues Friday, but the left-handed hitter will get a breather as the Reds hand the ball to southpaw Andrew Abbott. Alex Call is grabbing a start in De Paula's place, manning left field while Teoscar Hernandez starts at designated hitter.
