Jonny DeLuca hits go-ahead homer on Father’s Day

Scherzer walked a pair while striking out three batters in the contest. He threw just 49 pitches in this one, so it’s likely that he’ll need another tune-up in the minor leagues before he’s cleared to rejoin the Blue Jays’ rotation. Either way, with what we have seen from Scherzer this season, he’s really not relevant from a mixed league perspective — especially if he can’t stay on the field.

The 36-year-old righty was designated for assignment by the Rockies earlier in the week and opted to explore the open market rather than accepting an outright assignment to Triple-A Albuquerque. Brebbia has posted a 10.38 ERA and 1.62 WHIP over 4 1/3 innings in three appearances with the Rockies this season.

Fairchild was designated for assignment last weekend and passed through waivers unclaimed. Unless he opts to hit the open market, he’ll continue to function as extra outfield depth for the Guardians at the Triple-A level.

Nothing has changed in the prognosis for Criswell, who is still sidelined indefinitely with a right shoulder strain, this was done as a procedural move to clear a spot on the club’s 40-man roster for the addition of Miles Mastrobuoni on Friday. Criswell now won’t be eligible to return from the injured list until the beginning of August.

The versatile 30-year-old will get another chance to show what he can do at the MLB level with Julio Rodriguez heading to the 7-day concussion injured list on Friday. Mastrobuoni has hit .217 (5-for-23) with zero homers and one RBI in 27 plate appearances with the Mariners this season.

Rodríguez was removed from Thursday’s game against the Angels after he was hit in the back of the head by an errant throw from Nolan Schanuel. The Mariners haven’t given any clear timeline for when he may be able to return, but he’ll have more than a week to pass through the concussion protocol with next week’s All-Star break baked in. Miles Mastrobuoni was promoted from Triple-A Tacoma to take his place on the Mariners’ roster.

After electing free agency earlier in the week, Kelenic is back with the Rangers on a minor league deal. He’ll report back to Triple-A Round Rock where he’ll continue to function as extra outfield depth for the Rangers until another need arises in Arlington.

Ross, 33, elected free agency on Wednesday rather than accepting an outright assignment to Triple-A Round Rock. The grass isn’t always greener on the other side though and he’ll return to the Rangers on a minor league pact. He should get another opportunity with the big league club at some point this summer.

Huff elected free agency on Thursday after refusing an outright assignment to Triple-A Norfolk, but after exploring the open market he decided his best opportunity was to remain with the Orioles. He’ll continue to serve as extra catching depth.

He’ll take the place of Ryan Gusto after the right-hander was optioned to Triple-A on Friday. Kempner has been outstanding in six appearances with the Marlins this season, firing nine scoreless innings with a 0.56 WHIP and a 10/2 K/BB ratio. He adds another multi-inning option to a bullpen that has been taxed recently.
