Reds optioned RHP Zach McCambley to Triple-A Louisville.

This is a procedural move after McCambley served as the 27th man on Monday during a double-header against the Cardinals. He tossed a scoreless inning with two strikeouts in his appearance and will likely be part of the Reds’ bullpen shuffle for the rest of the season.

Zach McCambley has joined the Reds as their 27th player for Monday’s doubleheader.

McCambley gets the unofficial callup six days after being demoted by the Reds. He’s given up four runs in 7 2/3 innings in seven major league relief appearances this season.

CIN Relief Pitcher #62

Reds optioned RHP Zach McCambley to Triple-A Louisville.

McCambley retreats to the minors to free up a spot for starter Nick Lodolo on Cincinnati’s roster. The 27-year-old rookie has allowed four runs over 7 2/3 innings in a couple stints in the big leagues since early June.

Reds recalled RHP Zach McCambley from Triple-A Louisville

McCambley was sent back to Triple-A two weeks ago after allowing three runs on six hits in four innings across three appearances out of the bullpen for the Reds. He’ll work in middle relief.

Reds optioned RHP Zach McCambley to Triple-A Louisville

The 26-year-old allowed three runs on six hits in four innings across three appearances out of the bullpen for the Reds. His Triple-A numbers are much better, so we expect he’ll get another chance over the summer.

Reds selected the contract of RHP Zach McCambley from Triple-A Louisville

McCambley came to the Reds two weeks ago as part of the Rece Hinds trade with the Marlins. A former starting pitcher, McCambley has a 2.37 ERA and 37/18 K/BB ratio in 30 1/3 innings in 15 appearances (two starts) in Triple-A this season. He will provide depth out of the bullpen.

CIN Starting Pitcher

Reds acquired RHP Zach McCambley from the Marlins in exchange for OF Rece Hinds.

McCambley has pitched well in Triple-A Jacksonville with a 2.36 ERA over 26 2/3 innings, but it’s worth noting he’s walked 17 batters in that timeframe against 32 strikeouts. The 27-year-old has a good chance of getting an opportunity with the Cincinnati staff in 2026.
Zach McCambley

MIA Starting Pitcher #39

Phillies returned RHP Zack McCambley to the Marlins.

The Rule 5 pick did not crack the Phillies’ Opening Day roster, so he has been returned to the organization that he was plucked from back in December. McCambley actually showed out well during Grapefruit League play, posting a 1.23 ERA, 1.50 WHIP with a troublesome 4/6 K/BB ratio over 7 1/3 innings in his eight appearances.
Zach McCambley

PHI Starting Pitcher #91

Phillies selected RHP Zack McCambley from the Marlins with the 12th selection in the Rule 5 draft.

McCambley, 26, had a 2.90 ERA and an 83/22 K/BB in 62 innings out of the pen between Double- and Triple-A last season. He throws in the mid-90s, but he uses his cutter more than his fastball and also attacks hitters with a slider. It’s package that could make him adequate in middle relief.

Robert Murray of FanSided reports that the Phillies are signing Nestor Cortes (arm) to a one-year deal.

Cortes will get an MLB deal, which makes sense considering the deal will be prorated and there’s not much season left. The southpaw has not pitched since 2025 after undergoing surgery in the middle of October that year. While he has a starting background, there isn’t much time for to build into that role. A muti-inning option out of the bullpen for the remainder of 2026.

Mets interim manager Andy Green told reporters that Jorge Polanco is likely to undergo surgery on his ankle.

Polanco was placed on the injured list before Wednesday’s game against the Padres with ankle bursitis. The 33-year-old has had a disastrous first season with the Mets that has seen him deal with injuries and ineffectiveness when available. If he does undergo the operation, it will all but assuredly mean he’s played his last game in 2026. That may be true, either way.

Cody Bellinger (hamstring) could return to the lineup for the Yankees by Sunday.

Bellinger will play Thursday for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. If that game — and likely at least one more contest — goes well, the 31-year-old could be back for the series finale Sunday against the Blue Jays. Even Bellinger needs a day or two more in the minors, it’s a positive development for the Yankees and fantasy managers.

Chris Cotillo of MassLive reports that the Phillies are currently discussing a potential deal with Nestor Cortes (biceps).

Cortes has been out for all of 2026 while recovering from surgery on his left arm. There’s no guarantee that the 31-year-old will be able to pitch in 2026, but he could be a potential multi-inning option for the final month — and potentially the postseason — for Philadelphia.

Mets recalled INF Eric Wagaman from Triple-A Syracuse.

Wagaman is up with Jorge Polanco (ankle) once again being placed on the injured list due to his ankle issue. Wagaman will likely see some time over the final month-plus, but it’s hard to see much fantasy significance in his profile.

Mets optioned RHP Jack Weisenburger to Triple-A Syracuse.

Weisenburger threw 1 1/3 innings during Tuesday’s game against the Mets, so New York will bring up a fresh arm for the bullpen. Weisenburger seems to be a likely candidate for promotion when rosters expand.

Mets placed INF Jorge Polanco on the 10-day injured list with left ankle bursitis.

Lower body issues have plagued Polanco throughout the season — and really, for much of his career — and the 33-year-old will once again hit the shelf due to the ankle troubles. The 33-year-old could return at some point near September, but this is a lost first season for Polanco with the Metropolitans.
