    Blue Jays optioned RHP Chad Dallas to Triple-A Buffalo.

    Dallas delivered a brilliant performance out of the bullpen on Wednesday against the Royals, retiring all eight hitters that he faced in order — four of them via the strikeout. Unfortunately, he wasn’t going to be available for the next couple of days, so the club replaced him on the roster with Michael Lorenzen. It shouldn’t take him long to earn another opportunity at the MLB level.

    Cardinals placed INF Blaze Jordan on the 10-day injured list with a left ankle sprain.

    Tough break for the 23-year-old, as he’s losing big-league opportunities down the stretch here with the Cardinals. Jordan was unable to put weight on the ankle after being hurt and this will likely be more than a 10-day injury.

    Adley Rutschman (elbow) is in Boston’s Friday starting lineup against the Yankees.

    He missed two games in a row with the elbow injury earlier this week. His return forces Mickey Gasper to DH. Rutschman will try to help the Red Sox make up some ground on the Yankees against RHP Cam Schlittler.

    Rangers recalled LHP Adam Macko from Triple-A Round Rock.

    The 25-year-old left-hander came over in a deadline trade for INF Josh Smith and had five appearances with a 5.63 ERA with Round Rock. He holds a 4.91 ERA in 22 innings in the bigs earlier this year with the Blue Jays.

    Alejandro Kirk is not in Toronto’s starting lineup for Friday’s game against the Mariners.

    It’s a bit surprising to see Kirk rested in two of the last six games. Especially when he’s hitting .338/.415/.513 this month. Brandon Valenzuela will don the tools of ignorance against RHP Emerson Hancock.

    Twins optioned OF Alan Roden to Triple-A St. Paul.

    Since August 13, Roden had only appeared in four of Minnesota’s 12 games. The 26-year-old hit .254/.333/.313 in 79 plate appearances this year. He’ll try to get back on track at Triple-A.

    Twins designated RHP Woo-Suk Go for assignment.

    Go gave up four runs over four appearances with the Twins in July and was DFA’ed to make room for Walker Jenkins. The 28-year-old right-hander had a 3.91 ERA between Toledo and St. Paul’s Triple-A squads this year — 12.54 is the ERA in Toledo that likely led to him being placed on waivers.

    Twins selected the contract of CF Walker Jenkins from Triple-A St. Paul.

    Jenkins was hitting .308/.407/.532 with 12 homers and 17 stolen bases over 307 plate appearances with the Saints and should be rostered in most leagues. The Twins didn’t call the 21-year-old top prospect up for him to sit and Luke Keaschall may be at the most risk of losing playing time if Byron Buxton avoids the injured list.

    Blue Jays recalled RHP CJ Van Eyk from Triple-A Buffalo.

    Van Eyk has a 4.76 ERA in three appearances with the Jays and a 3.79 ERA in 95 innings with Buffalo this year, starting 15 games in 21 appearances. He’ll be a multi-inning arm for the Jays.

    Blue Jays designated RHP Simeon Woods Richardson for assignment.

    Woods Richardson allowed six earned runs against the Royals yesterday night in what was apparently the last straw. The 25-year-old has a 6.68 ERA between the Royals and Twins this year and snuck through waivers when he was DFA’ed in late June. He’ll likely find himself outrighted again.

    MLB.com’s Anthony DiComo reports Juan Soto (calf) does not anticipate needing a rehab assignment and his return “could happen in a matter of days.”

    It sounds like if it’s not at some point this weekend against the Astros, Soto is in play to be activated for the September fantasy stretch run. He’s been out with a calf strain since late July.
