    Cubs claimed RHP Bryse Wilson off waivers from the Phillies.

    Wilson heads to Chicago as a potential swingman option for their injury-depleted pitching staff. The 28-year-old was jettisoned by the Phillies over the weekend after just one appearance. He posted a lackluster 6.65 ERA in 47 1/3 innings for the White Sox last year and has made 164 career appearances dating back to 2018.

    Wilson heads to the shelf with Abner Uribe coming off the injured list. The 28-year-old has made 12 appearances during a couple of stints with the Brewers this season. He’s also pitched for the Cubs and Phillies.
  • MIL Relief Pitcher #46
    Wilson languished on the open market for roughly 24 hours before heading back to Milwaukee on a brand-new pact. The 28-year-old allowed four runs over 13 2/3 innings after signing with the Brewers last month. He’ll operate in low-leverage spots as a multi-inning reliever over the final two months.
  • FA Relief Pitcher #46
    Wilson has opted to test the open market instead of accepting an outright assignment to Triple-A Nashville after clearing waivers. The 28-year-old gave up four runs over 13 2/3 innings after signing with the Brewers last month. He’s pitched for three different clubs this season.
  • MIL Relief Pitcher #46
    Wilson surrendered four runs over 13 2/3 innings after signing with the Brewers last month. The 28-year-old has pitched for three different organizations this season. He figures to be on the move again once he clears waivers.
  • MIL Relief Pitcher #46
    Milwaukee announced the signing prior to Friday’s rainout in Pittsburgh. Wilson joins the Brewers bullpen after allowing seven runs over 7 2/3 innings for the division-rival Cubs. He’s made three appearances in the big leagues between Chicago and Philadelphia this season. He’s made 166 career appearances dating back to 2018.

    No word yet on the type of contract, but we’d assume it’s a major league deal. Wilson has become a full-time reliever but has a 6.52 ERA in 9 2/3 innings this season for the Phillies and Cubs. Of course, he pitched 4 1/3 scoreless innings against the Brewers back on June 28th, so they must have seen something they liked then.
  • CHC Relief Pitcher #46
    Wilson has the option to elect free agency, but his clearest path to big-league innings might still be with the injury-depleted Cubs. The 28-year-old was designated for assignment over the weekend after allowing seven runs over 7 2/3 innings for Chicago across two relief appearances.
  • CHC Relief Pitcher #46
    The Cubs need room on the active and 40-man roster, so Wilson is out to clear space for Jake Woodford. Wilson will hit the waiver wire, and teams could show interest in the 28-year-old as a potential multi-inning relief option.
  • CHC Relief Pitcher #46
    Wilson worked after opener Ryan Rolison fired two innings and allowed a run. The right-hander was excellent in his bulk work; giving up just four hits and striking out four while not issuing a walk. The 28-year-old could work in a similar role again in the coming days, but there’s nothing scheduled as of yet. There’s no starter lined up yet for Saturday’s game against the Cardinals, so that would be the most likely landing spot for Wilson.
  • PHI Relief Pitcher #46
    Wilson was called up on Thursday and threw two scoreless innings in his lone appearance for the Phillies. With Max Lazar getting sent down, the Phillies will be making two additions on Monday. Kyle Backhus returning from the IL is one of them. The other is likely to be Alan Rangel, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer’s Scott Lauber, and Rangel could either start or work bulk innings in what had been Andrew Painter’s spot.

    Braves designated LHP Bailey Falter for assignment.

    Falter threw 3 1/3 shutout innings for the Braves, allowing just two hits and striking out two batters. We anticipate that this is simply a move to bring a fresh arm up into their bullpen, and Falter could quickly be re-signed to a minor league contract.

    Braves recalled RHP Owen Murphy from Triple-A Gwinnett.

    Murphy has been recalled to fill a role out of the bullpen. The 22-year-old has a 1.29 ERA over his last five starts at Triple-A, but he is off the fantasy radar as a reliever.

    Maikel Garcia (hamstring) went 2-for-4 with a run scored and a stolen base for Triple-A Omaha on Sunday.

    Garcia played most of the game at third base, and obviously, the stolen base is a good sign for the health of his hamstring. There is no indication yet of when Garcia might return to the Royals’ lineup, but it seems possible that it could be this week.

    Red Sox INF prospect Franklin Arias went 2-for-5 with a home run for Triple-A Worcester on Sunday.

    Arias is now hitting .333/.392/.510 with five home runs, 32 RBI, and three steals in 37 games at Triple-A. Trevor Story has gone 18-for-53 (.340) since coming off the injured list and Romy Gonzalez is also hitting the ball really well since being sent to Triple-A, so there is less of a path for Arias to get at-bats this season in Boston.

    Mets promoted INF prospect Jefferson Rojas to Triple-A Syracuse.

    Rojas came over from the Cubs at the trade deadline for Clay Holmes and Tyrone Taylor. The 21-year-old was tremendous for Double-A Binghamton, slashing .280/.336/.593 with nine home runs, 29 RBI, and three steals in 29 games. In his time with the Mets, he has started 10 games at third base, eight games at shortstop, and six games at second base, so the Mets are going continue to move him around to see where his easiest path is to big league at-bats.

    Nationals promoted RHP prospect Jarlin Susana to Triple-A Rochester.

    Susana has been making his way back from last September’s lat surgery and has pitched just 17 2/3 innings this year. He has a 5.09 ERA and 1.19 WHIP in those innings, but he also has a 43.6 percent strikeout-to-walk ratio and struck out 21 batters in 11 1/3 innings at Double-A. The 22-year-old may not officially be a reliever long-term, but he will continue to work out of the bullpen in Triple-A while the team gets him consistent innings to end the season.

    Manager Tony Vitello said after Sunday’s game that Logan Webb could be shut down for the final two weeks.

    First, they’ll have a conversation. Webb gave up six runs to the Padres in Sunday night’s loss to fall to 8-9 with a 4.31 ERA. He’s currently slated to face the Dodgers on Saturday.

    Fernando Tatis Jr. went 3-for-4 with two RBI and a steal as the Padres defeated the Giants 6-4 on Sunday Night Baseball.

    Tatis’s singles were hit 105, 111 and 103 mph. The steal was his 35th in 48 tries. He’s already exceeded his previous career high of 32 from last year. He is hitting .395 with four homers and four steals in 11 games this month.

    Nick Pivetta got through four innings, allowing two runs, Sunday night against the Giants.

    Pivetta struck out five and got up to 69 pitches in his second start back from the 60-day IL. It looked like he might have been dealing with a leg issue at the end of the outing, but he grinded it out. Assuming that he’s OK, maybe he’ll have a chance to complete five innings in a home start against the Marlins next weekend.

    Yuki Matsui protected a two-run lead in the ninth for his first save Sunday night against the Giants.

    Mason Miller, Adrian Morejon and Bradgley Rodriguez were all unavailable tonight after pitching the previous two days, but Matsui got the job done for his second save in three MLB seasons after 236 in Japan. He’s never really been treated like a high-leverage reliever by the Padres, but he’s sporting a 1.98 ERA in 59 innings this season.
