Mariners' Gregory Santos: Comes off 60-day IL

15m ago

The Mariners activated Santos (lat) from the 60-day injured list Monday.

Santos has been sidelined all season while recovering from a right lat strain. He made just two rehab appearances, striking out a pair of two scoreless frames. Santos reportedly reached 99 miles per hour on the radar gun in Saturday's outing with High-A Everett, helping to convince the Mariners that he was ready to go. The 24-year-old should eventually find himself in high-leverage situations for Seattle, but he could be eased into such spots. Santos will be making his Mariners debut when he gets into a game after being acquired via trade from the White Sox over the offseason.

White Sox's Chad Kuhl: Works in long relief Thursday

1h ago

Kuhl tossed 4.1 innings out of the bullpen in Thursday's 8-4 loss to the Guardians, striking out one batter while giving up three runs (two earned) on five hits and four walks.

In his previous appearance June 27, Kuhl made his first start of the season with the White Sox, working three scoreless innings in a no-decision against Atlanta. Kuhl was merely getting a spot start amid a busy portion of the White Sox's schedule, as he returned to a mop-up role out of the bullpen a week later. With the Chicago rotation at full strength with the exception of Mike Clevinger (elbow) -- who appears close to a return from the injured list -- Kuhl isn't expected to get any chances to start again in the near future.

White Sox's Steven Wilson: Sent to Triple-A

3h ago

The White Sox optioned Wilson to Triple-A Charlotte.

Wilson holds a 3.46 ERA with 26 strikeouts in 26 relief innings this season, but he's also been wild with 17 walks, resulting in a 5.36 FIP. Jordan Leasure was called up from Charlotte to take Wilson's spot in Chicago's bullpen.

Marlins' JT Chargois: Nabs first win of season

4h ago

Chargois (1-0) picked up the win Sunday over the White Sox, giving up a hit in a scoreless ninth inning.

The right-hander was called in with the Marlins down 4-3 in the top of the ninth, and Chargois got rewarded for his efforts when Jake Burger walked it off with a three-run homer in the bottom of the frame. Chargois has been very effective since making his season debut in mid-June, posting a 1.69 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 9:4 K:BB through 10.2 innings, and he could be working his way into the high-leverage mix for the Marlins.

White Sox's Jordan Leasure: Back up with big club

4h ago

The White Sox recalled Leasure from Triple-A Charlotte on Monday.

Leasure was optioned nearly a month ago following a rough stretch in which he allowed six runs over his final 3.2 innings out of the bullpen prior to his demotion. He held a 2.52 ERA before the string of blowups, albeit with a 22:14 K:BB across 25 frames. Leasure is a candidate for high-leverage innings eventually but could be eased into such situations as he returns to Chicago's bullpen.

Blue Jays' Genesis Cabrera: Notches second save

4h ago

Cabrera gave up a hit and a walk while striking out in the 10th inning Sunday to record his second save of the season in a win over the Mariners.

Chad Green worked the ninth in a tie game, leaving Cabrera to handle the save situation when the team took the lead in the top of the 10th. The southpaw got the job done, continuing a hot streak that has seen him get scored upon only once in his last 12 appearances. Cabrera sports a 0.75 ERA, 0.67 WHIP and 8:2 K:BB in 12 innings over that stretch, but he hasn't seen consistent high-leverage usage -- he has two extra-inning saves during that time, but zero wins or holds. With Tim Mayza no longer on the roster, however, Cabrera is the top left-handed option in the Toronto bullpen, which should lead to more holds in the second half of the season.
