Giants designated RHP Wilkin Ramos for assignment.

The move opens up a spot on the 40-man for Drew Cavanaugh. Ramos, who was back pitching for Triple-A Sacramento, made two appearances for the Giants earlier this month, giving up five runs in two innings. The 25-year-old journeyman had never pitched in the majors previously.

Giants optioned RHP Wilkin Ramos to Triple-A Sacramento.

Ramos allowed five earned runs in two games during his major league debut with the Giants. He heads down for a fresh arm for today’s matinee against the Cubs.

Giants selected the contract of RHP Wilkin Ramos from Triple-A Sacramento.

The move is now official. Ramos receives his first call up to the big leagues after compiling a 2.00 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 27/7 K/BB ratio across 27 innings at the Triple-A level this season. He’ll help San Francisco’s bullpen as a fresh middle relief arm.

Giants selected the contract of RHP Wilkin Ramos from Triple-A Sacramento

Ramos was a minor league free agent signed away from the Pirates this offseason. He has a 2.00 ERA, 1.15 WHIP, and 27/7 K/BB ratio in 27 innings out of the bullpen in Triple-A. He’ll help the Giants in middle relief.

Giants signed RHP Wilkin Ramos to a minor league contract.

Ramos, 25, has yet to pitch in the majors despite some fine numbers out of the pen in the Mets and Pirates systems the last three years. He had a 2.64 ERA and a 68/24 K/BB in 64 2/3 innings last season, though most of his success came in Double-A; he had a 6.60 ERA in his 15 innings in Triple-A. He still has a chance to surface in the majors at some point.

Byron Buxton (hip) is not in Friday’s lineup for the Twins against the Yankees.

It’s his fourth missed game in a row. The holding pattern remains. We’re waiting for real news on the situation. It sounded like Buxton was close to returning after an MRI revealed a hip impingement on Tuesday, but there’s been no real movement. Consider Buxton questionable for the other games against the Yankees this weekend.

Yankees optioned INF/OF Oswaldo Cabrera to Triple-A Scanton/Wilkes-Barre.

He didn’t get a hit or walk in 11 plate appearances with the Yankees since his June 24 call-up. Cabrera returns to a .271/.330/.397 line in 68 games with Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.

Yankees activated OF Trent Grisham from the 10-day injured list.

He’ll likely be starting today against the Twins in his return. Grisham has been on the shelf with a hamstring strain since mid-June, he was hitting .232/.341/.406 with eight homers and six stolen bases before the injury. He’ll be a reasonable deep-league starter, at the very least, going forward.

Yankees activated 3B Ryan McMahon from the 10-day injured list.

He’ll resume platooning against right-handers at third base for the Yankees. McMahon is hitting just .210/.269/.360 in his first 202 plate appearances of the season so it wouldn’t be surprising if his role dwindled going forward barring him hitting his way out of this slump.

Carlos Rodón

Yankees placed LHP Carlos Rodón on the 15-day injured list (retroactive to 6/30) with left elbow inflammation.

Not great. We’d seen no sign of Rodón being hurt in his last start, so hopefully this is something that just needs to be managed rather than something that could lead to surgery. More updates to come, assuredly. Rodón had a 3.30 ERA in nine starts so far this year, striking out 52 and allowing just 32 hits in 46 1/3 innings pitched.

Padres manager Craig Stammen said they’ll be “overly cautious” on LHP Randy Vásquez (fainting) but that he’s “all clear” on x-rays on his ankle.

X-Rays were negative, tests came back clean, but it sounds like Vásquez demonstrated some concussion symptoms and it wouldn’t be surprising if he wound up on the 7-day IL.

Reds sent 3B Ke’Bryan Hayes (back) on a rehab assignment to High-A Dayton.

Hayes will probably need at least until the All-Star break to get ready to go, at which point it seems likely that the Reds might part ways with Matt McLain from a deep infield mix. Edwin Arroyo has just a .257/.309/.297 line he’s posted in his first 82 plate appearances, but the Reds have seemingly committed to him at second base.

Cubs selected the contract of LHP Drew Pomeranz from Triple-A Iowa.

Pomeranz was DFA’ed by the Angels in June and signed a minor-league deal with the Cubs a scant four days ago. It seems they think he’s ready to go. The 37-year-old will likely step in to low-leverage relief duty for the time being.

Padres released INF Pablo Reyes.

Reyes, 32, was hitting .310/.408/.491 in 258 plate appearance for Triple-A El Paso, showing that he’d be a reasonable backup infielder. It’s possible that another team wanted to give him a better chance than he currently has at getting back to the big leagues.

Braves signed OF Andrew McCutchen to a minor league deal.

McCutchen was 14-for-73 (.192) with one homer and five RBI in 37 games with the Rangers earlier this season before being released on May 28th. The Braves just released Rowdy Tellez because they didn’t want a strict DH on their bench, but perhaps McCutchen could work his way up to fill that role because he’s a better runner. He will start out in Triple-A, however.
