Hoby Milner

TEX Relief Pitcher #55

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Rangers signed LHP Hoby Milner to a one-year contract.

Still no word on the contract details, but the 33-year-old left-hander had been projected to earn around $2.5 million via arbitration before he was non-tendered by the Brewers. While he had a bit of a down season in 2024, Milner has established himself as one of the stronger left-handed relievers in all of baseball and he should be a welcomed addition to the Rangers’ bullpen.

Anderson Severino

NYM Relief Pitcher #62

The Mets added LHP Anderson Severino to their 40-man roster and optioned him to Triple-A Syracuse.

Severino has posted a 1.04 ERA, 0.98 WHIP, and 18/8 K/BB ratio in 17 1/3 innings at Triple-A this season for the Mets. Rather than lose him to another team, the Mets decided to add him to the 40-man roster and then send him back to Triple-A. To free up space on the 40-man roster, the Mets transferred Clay Holmes to the 60-day IL.

Austin Slater

NYM Right Fielder #40

Mets designated OF Austin Slater for assignment.

Slater was signed to the team at the end of April but only appeared in nine games for the Mets. On the season, he’s slashing .209/.286/.233 with a 31 percent strikeout rate in 49 plate appearances between the Mets and Marlins.

Kumar Rocker

TEX Starting Pitcher #80

Kumar Rocker will be a bulk reliever on Tuesday, following Tyler Alexander as an opener.

It makes some sense. Rocker has allowed 18 runs this season, and 10 of them have come in the first inning. That’s an 11.25 ERA in the first frame. Perhaps giving him an easier start to the game will help to curtail his ratio struggles. It will also make it easier for him to pick up a win, so we do like this move for fantasy purposes.

Cameron Foster

BAL Relief Pitcher #65

Orioles optioned RHP Cameron Foster to Triple-A Norfolk

Foster came on in relief of Trevor Rogers on Monday night and allowed four runs on five hits in 1 1/3 innings of work. He’ll head back to the minors but will likely be shuttled back to Baltimore at some point this summer.

Albert Suárez

BAL Relief Pitcher #49

Orioles selected the contract of RHP Albert Suárez from Triple-A Norfolk

The Orioles bullpen has been taxed by some short starts of late, so they’re calling up Suárez to give them more length out of the pen. The 36-year-old has a 3.45 ERA in 15 2/3 innings for Baltimore this season in six relief appearances.

Maverick Handley

BAL Catcher #98

Orioles designated C Maverick Handley for assignment.

Handley was optioned to Triple-A on Monday and is now designated for assignment, so Baltimore could add relievers to their 40-man roster. He will likely clear waivers and could sign back with the Orioles.

Travis Adams

MIN Relief Pitcher #45

Twins recalled RHP Travis Adams from Triple-A St. Paul

Adams has allowed three runs on six hits in 3 2/3 innings for the Twins this season. He’ll operate in bulk relief.

Alex Jackson

MIN Catcher #70
Twins recalled C Alex Jackson from Triple-A St. Paul

Jackson was hitting .239/.295/.511 in 95 plate appearances at Triple-A with seven home runs and 15 RBI. He will likely back up Victor Caratini, who now becomes a must-roster catcher in two-catcher leagues.

Ryan Jeffers

MIN Catcher #27

Twins placed C Ryan Jeffers on the 10-day injured list with a fractured hamate bone.

This is a brutal blow for Jeffers, who was having his best season ever. The 29-year-old was slashing .295/.408/.541 in 147 plate appearances with seven home runs and 26 RBI. He will be sidelined for a couple of months and could see his power diminished when he does return. Sadly, he doesn’t need to be held in fantasy leagues.

Justin Topa

MIN Relief Pitcher #48

Twins designated RHP Justin Topa for assignment.

The Twins needed to clear space on the 40-man roster for Orlando Arcia, so Topa will be the one who goes. The 35-year-old at one point seemed like a good bet to be part of the Twins’ closer committee, but he has pitched to an 8.05 ERA in 19 innings for them this season. However, he did have a 3.90 ERA in 60 innings out of the bullpen for Minnesota last season, so there’s a chance that some team puts in a claim to grab him off waivers.
