Marlins sent LHP Daniel Castano outright to Triple-A Jacksonville.

Castano passed through waivers unclaimed after being designated for assignment earlier this week and will likely opt to remain with the Marlins as extra pitching depth. The 28-year-old left-hander has made a pair of relief appearances this season in the big leagues.

Randy Vásquez

SD Starting Pitcher #98

Randy Vasquez was charged for three runs in 5 2/3 innings in a loss to the Giants on Monday.

Vasquez wasn’t bad, but Trevor McDonald (7 IP, 1 ER, 8 SO) was much better. He allowed two runs in the first, and another run was charged to him after he exited in the sixth. The 27-year-old has allowed eight runs over his last two starts, and it’s pushed his ERA up to 3.20 in the process. That’s still solid, but more regression is likely coming. He’ll be back on the bump Saturday for a scheduled start versus the Cardinals.

Trevor McDonald

SF Starting Pitcher #72

Trevor McDonald held the Padres to one run over seven innings while striking out eight in a 3-1 win for the Giants on Monday.

McDonald pounded the strike zone; landing 60-of-81 pitches while allowing only two hits. The 25-year-old was just recalled Monday for the series-opener, and he generated 10 swings and misses while allowing a respectable seven hard-hit balls in the process. McDonald impressed in his MLB time last year, as well, but there’s no word yet as to when — or if — he’ll get another turn in the rotation.

Caleb Kilian

SF Starting Pitcher #44

Caleb Kilian picked up a save despite allowing a solo homer against the Padres on Monday.

Killian gave up a solo blast to Ramon Laureano, but it came with the Giants holding a 3-1 lead. The 28-year-old right-hander has his first save of the season, but it may not be the last even after giving up the roundtripper. He struck out two, and he now has an excellent 1.13 ERA on the season after giving up the homer with a 20/8 K/BB over 17 innings. It’s something to keep an eye on.

Seiya Suzuki

CHC Right Fielder #27

Seiya Suzuki went 2-for-3 with a walk and a three-run home run against the Reds on Monday.

Suzuki’s home run was his sixth of the season. He hit a three-run shot off Chase Petty in the fourth inning. Suzuki has four home runs in his last 10 games. He’s hitting .321 with a .985 OPS so far this year.

JJ Bleday

CIN Left Fielder #22

JJ Bleday went 1-for-5 with a solo home run against the Cubs on Monday.

Bleday has been with the Reds for just a week and already has three home runs. He’s going to get everyday playing time against right-handed pitching for the time being and even hit third in the batting order on Monday. As long as Bleday is swinging a hot bat, he’s worth rostering in NL-Only leagues.

Emilio Pagán

CIN Relief Pitcher #15

Emilio Pagán allowed two runs, blew the save and took the loss against the Cubs on Monday.

Pagán entered the ninth inning on Monday with a one-run lead looking for his seventh save of the year. After Pete Crow-Armstrong started the inning with a triple, the game was tied two batters later. Then Michael Conforto hit a pinch-hit walkoff home run. It’s Pagán’s third blown save of the season. He has a 6.43 ERA.
