    Jackson Kowar underwent right shoulder arthroscopic debridement surgery on Wednesday.

    Kowar was removed from Baltimore’s 40-man roster back in late March after coming over from the Mariners in an offseason trade. The 29-year-old has made 54 career appearances in the big leagues dating back to 2021. It’s unclear how much time he’ll miss following the procedure.

    Cubs sent RHP Bryse Wilson outright to Triple-A Iowa.

    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.

    Blue Jays recalled RHP Chad Dallas from Triple-A Buffalo.

    Dallas bolsters Toronto’s relief depth as a viable long man out of the bullpen for the remaining five games out on the West Coast against the Giants and Padres. The 26-year-old rookie allowed one run over 3 2/3 innings against the Red Sox in his big-league debut back on June 4.

    Blue Jays optioned OF Yohendrick Piñango to Triple-A Buffalo.

    Piñango hit just .174 (4-for-23) with one homer during eight games with the Blue Jays after being brought back on June 27 to replace an injured Jesús Sánchez (ankle). The 24-year-old rookie outfielder makes plenty of loud contact, but he’s a bit of a liability defensively and remains a work in progress.

    George Springer remains out of the lineup for Tuesday’s showdown against the Giants.

    The Blue Jays continue to struggle offensively and they’re without Springer in the lineup for a sixth consecutive contest. The 36-year-old veteran was activated prior to Monday’s series opener, but remains stapled to Toronto’s bench. It’s a bit unclear why he’s not in the lineup at this juncture. Hopefully there is some clarity on his status at some point relatively soon. It’ll be rookie Sean Keys at DH on Tuesday night at Oracle Park.

    Jakob Marsee (knee) is in the lineup for Tuesday’s series opener against the Mariners.

    Marsee returns without missing any additional time following an early exit from Sunday’s game against the Athletics with a right knee contusion. He’s back patrolling center field and hitting seventh during Tuesday’s series opener at loanDepot park.

    Ranger Suarez (adductor) is scheduled to throw a bullpen session on Thursday.

    There’s a chance Suarez, who was able to play catch on Tuesday without any issues, will be able to take the ball against the Mets on Saturday to close out the first half, but that decision won’t be made until later this week. It’s a challenging situation for fantasy managers to navigate, but it looks like there’s a decent chance that he avoids a trip to the injured list. He’ll certainly benefit from next week’s extended All-Star break. There should be a definitive update on his status following his next throwing session on Thursday.

    Nate Eaton’s three-game suspension was reduced to two games on appeal.

    Eaton will begin serving the two-game ban during Tuesday’s contest against the White Sox. The 29-year-old received the punishment from the league for his actions during last week’s bench-clearing incident with the Nationals.

    Jesús Luzardo, Braxton Ashcraft and Riley O’Brien have been added to the National League’s roster for the MLB All-Star Game as replacement for Paul Skenes, Jacob Misiorowski and Max Meyer.

    It’s a colossal bummer for baseball fans hoping to see Misiorowski hurling triple-digit heaters during next week’s Midsummer Classic, but this was always the expected outcome here. Skenes, Misorowski and Meyer are all taking the ball for their respective club’s first-half finales on Sunday, which means there was zero chance they would be able to pitch in the All-Star Game just three days later. Luzardo, Ashcraft and O’Brien are headed to the game for the first time in their respective careers. It’s likely going to be Shohei Ohtani taking the ball to start for the National League based on how things are lining up from a schedule standpoint.

    Luis Lara is in center field and hitting second in the nightcap of Tuesday’s doubleheader against the Cardinals.

    Lara will make his highly anticipated major-league debut after sitting out the front-end of the twin bill. The switch-hitting 21-year-old top prospect signed a seven-year extension last month and earns a shot with Milwaukee after slashing a robust .321/.432/.470 with nine homers and 24 steals in 346 plate appearances at Triple-A Nashville. He offers an intriguing blend of fantasy-relevant skills and is worthy of a speculative pickup in deeper mixed leagues. The central question for fantasy managers is how much the Brewers are willing to put on his plate at this early stage of his big-league career.
