The Mariners have reinstated Marco Gonzales from the paternity list, the team announced. Donovan Walton has been optioned to Triple-A to create the roster spot. Gonzalez was gone for just a couple of days, and he’ll step right back into his rotation spot. Walton, meanwhile, has appeared in 21 games and posted a .205/.254/.365 line.
Let’s make the rounds and check in on some roster moves and injury updates…
- The Tigers and Indians will play a doubleheader today, meaning both teams get to add a 27th man for the day. The Indians have brought up infielder Owen Miller, per Mandy Bell (via Twitter). The Tigers, meanwhile, will add Derek Hill, who only recently has been healthy enough to return from the injured list.
- Ryan Castellani has cleared waivers and been assigned outright to Triple-A, the Rockies announced. Castellani made one start for the Rockies this year, tossing 3 1/3 innings and allowing two earned runs. The 25-year-old will look to put together more productive outings in Triple-A where he owns a 7.82 ERA across 35 2/3 innings.
- Mets infielders Jonathan Villar and J.D. Davis will both begin rehab assignments with the Syracuse Mets today, tweets Tim Britton of The Athletic. What began as a hand contusion has ended up keeping Davis out for all but 14 games of the season thus far. Villar filled in ably for much of the year, but he, too, went down with a calf strain. Both now appear to be on the mend.
lol indians and tigers will be lucky to play one game tonight if that. maybe they should have played last nights game when it didn’t even rain
Game on.
Did the Mets ever hire a GM after firing Porter?
Zack Scott is the acting GM.
Why do I feel compelled to make a waiver claim on Davis in my fantasy team?
I’m glad the Tigers brought up Hill and I hope they play him and I hope he does extremely well and forces them to get rid of Mazara.
No doubt. Mazara was hired to play a little outfield….hit .240 and show a little pop.
Popgun more Ike it. See ya.
He’s more of a liability than it might seem. Hill should be getting that playing time. Because he’s not, his development is being slowed (as if it hasn’t been slow enough).
Hill got sent back to Toledo after the second game of the DH. Why? Probably because Mazara has blackmail on Avila? Or maybe he told Al he’s the all time best GM? Beats me.
Holy Toledo, bat man!
Go Miggie!
Yes, indeed, Pfeifer, let’s keep on rocking there, br’er Migs!!
