Cardinals selected the contract of RHP Peter Strzelecki from Triple-A Memphis.

Strzelecki fortifies St. Louis’ bullpen mix leading into Tuesday’s game against the division-rival Cubs at Busch Stadium. The 31-year-old was up briefly with the Brewers earlier this season, but didn’t end up getting into a game. He’s posted a serviceable 3.44 ERA across 83 2/3 innings in the big leagues since 2022.

Cardinals signed RHP Peter Strzelecki to a minor league contract.

Strzelecki latches on with St. Louis after opting out of his minor league pact with the Brewers earlier this week. The 31-year-old reliever hasn’t pitched in the big leagues since the 2024 campaign, but holds a respectable 3.44 ERA across 83 2/3 mostly low-leverage innings dating back to 2022.

Brewers signed RHP Peter Strzelecki to a minor league contract.

Strzelecki, 31, returns to the Brewers after being designated for assignment by the team in May. He signed a minor league pact with the Yankees shortly after, but the right-hander opted out of that deal and is now back in the Brew Crew organization to provide depth.
Peter Strzelecki

NYY Relief Pitcher #44

Yankees signed RHP Peter Strzelecki to a minor league contract.

Strzelecki fortifies New York’s relief depth at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. He was up briefly with the Brewers earlier this month but didn’t end up getting into a game. The 31-year-old has made 77 appearances between the Brewers, Diamondbacks and Guardians since 2022.
Peter Strzelecki

FA Relief Pitcher #44

Brewers RHP Peter Strzelecki elected free agency.

Strzelecki went unclaimed on waivers and opted to test free agency rather than accept an outright assignment to Triple-A. The well-traveled 31-year-old reliever didn’t end up making an appearance for Milwaukee after being called up last weekend.

Brewers designated RHP Peter Strzelecki for assignment.

It was a whirlwind 24 hours for Strzelecki as he was promoted from Triple-A Nashville and then booted off of the 40-man roster without appearing in a game. There’s a decent chance that he’ll pass through waivers unclaimed and continue to serve as extra pitching depth for the Brewers.

Brewers selected the contract of RHP Peter Strzelecki from Triple-A Nashville.

Strzelecki fortifies Milwaukee’s relief corps heading into Saturday’s game against the Twins. The well-traveled 31-year-old has bounced around between a couple different organizations, making 77 appearances between the Brewers, Diamondbacks and Guardians since 2022. He’ll operate in middle relief situations and can be ignored for fantasy purposes.

Brewers signed RHP Peter Strzelecki to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training.

Strzelecki, 31, arrived in the big leagues with the Brewers in 2022 and had nice success early before losing two mph of his fastball in 2023 and pitching his way back to Triple-A. He was limited to 22 innings for two Triple-A teams last year and posted a 9.41 ERA.

TB Relief Pitcher #44

Rays signed RHP Peter Strzelecki to a minor league contract.

The 30-year-old hurler was officially released by the Pirates on Sunday and it didn’t take him long to find another opportunity. The Rays will undoubtedly make minor changes to his arsenal and he’ll turn into a key cog in their big league bullpen before the season is through.

Pirates released RHP Peter Strzelecki.

The right-hander has had success at the big league level in the past, but he struggled at Triple-A Indianapolis this season, registering a 9.90 ERA, 1.85 WHIP and a 15/12 K/BB ratio across his 20 innings of work there. He’s now free to latch on elsewhere if he so chooses.

Kyle Tucker and Max Muncy are not in Los Angeles’ starting lineup on Thursday against the Braves.

They’ll take a seat against LHP Chris Sale. Alex Call will draw the start and bat seventh for Tucker; this appears to just be a routine day off. Enrique Hernández is playing third for Muncy and Muncy appears to be in some danger of losing at-bats against lefties now that Hernández is back.

The Cincinnati Enquirer’s Gordon Wittenmyer reports Eugenio Suárez and TJ Friedl cleared waivers and will remain with the Reds.

Suárez being claimed by the Diamondbacks or Mariners would have made for a fun story, but instead he’ll finish out the regular season with the Reds. Neither club was willing to pick up approximately $3 million in salary for the 35-year-old slugger.

Gordon Graceffo will open for the Cardinals on Thursday.

It’ll be a bullpen game. Newly-called up Cade Winquest may have the best chance for a bulk role, but that’s not exactly an endorsement of chasing a win with him.

Abimelec Ortiz is not in Washington’s starting lineup for Thursday’s game against the Rockies.

Terribly unfortunate to miss a start against RHP Gabriel Hughes, who is 0-5 with a 6.54 ERA. Andrés Chaparro will draw the assignment instead. It’s the first day off for Ortiz in the last six.

Hunter Goodman and Mickey Moniak aren’t in Colorado’s starting lineup against the Nationals on Thursday.

Both will miss a chance to face RHP Jake Irvin. Zac Veen and Brett Sullivan will get the call. This is likely just a normal rest day for Goodman as a catcher in a day-game-after-a-night-game situation.

James Wood

WSH Right Fielder #29
Player Stats

James Wood (oblique) was doing baserunning work on the field on Thursday.

Wood landed on the injured list on August 4th with what the team had called a mild oblique strain. However, his recovery progress has been slow, and it’s unclear if he has even begun swinging a bat. Seeing him run on the field is certainly nice, but until we see him hitting and beginning to hit high velocity, we shouldn’t expect an imminent return.
