Royals transferred RHP Carlos Estévez to the 60-day injured list.

The procedural move was made earlier on Monday to free up a spot on Kansas City’s roster for trade acquisition Connor Seabold. Estévez has started a throwing progression but isn’t remotely close to making it back from the injured list yet.

Mariners transferred RHP Matt Brash to the 60-day injured list.

Nothing has changed in the prognosis for Brash, who is finally nearing a return from a lat strain that has had him shelved since early June, this was done simply as a procedural move to free up a spot on the club’s 40-man roster for Carlos Vargas to join the bullpen on Friday.

Mariners optioned RHP Nick Davila to Triple-A Tacoma.

With Carlos Vargas set to join the Mariners’ bullpen on Friday, someone needed to get sent out to create a spot and unfortunately Davila drew the short straw this time. The 27-year-old righty holds a 4.10 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and a 13/11 K/BB ratio over 26 1/3 innings in 23 appearances with the M’s this season.

Jake Mangum is not in the Pirates’ starting lineup for Friday night’s contest against the Dodgers.

It appears to be nothing more than a routine night off for the 30-year-old outfielder. Bryan Reynolds will cover left field in his place while Brandon Lowe functions as the team’s designated hitter against Dodgers’ right-hander Yoshinobu Yamamoto.

Jacob Misiorowski shut out the Braves for six innings in the Brewers’ 2-1 win Friday.

Misiorowski didn’t have his absolute best stuff today, averaging a mere 100.1 mph with his fastball, and recorded just six strikeouts for the second straight start. Still, he moved to 13-5 with a 1.68 ERA with his seventh scoreless start of the year. Unless the Brewers adjust their six-man rotation and move him up to Thursday against the Mets, he’ll face the Rangers at home next Friday.

Trevor Megill pitched a scoreless ninth Friday against the Braves for his 24th save.

Megill’s nine-appearance hitless streak was snapped today with Mike Yastrzemski’s two-out single, but he followed that with a strikeout of Ronald Acuña Jr. to end the game. He’ll probably need Saturday off after working the last two days, potentially opening up a save chance for Aaron Ashby.

With the Braves going scoreless, Chris Sale lost to the Brewers after allowing two runs in six innings on Friday.

It’s the Braves’ second straight 2-0 loss with Sale on the mound, and the left-hander fell to 0-3 in August despite turning in quality starts each time out. He’ll take a 12-9 record and a 2.20 ERA into his next turn at home against the Rockies.

William Contreras went 4-for-4 and drove in one of the Brewers’ two runs in Friday’s win over the Braves.

He hit the ball hard every time up today, with his singles ranging from 97 mph to 108 mph off the bat. Contreras has followed up a string of six straight hitless contests by going 9-for-20 with a homer and a 2/3 K/BB in his last five games.

Mike Yastrzemski reached all four times up against the Brewers on Friday, going 2-for-2 with two walks.

Yastrzemski was 1-for-13 in his previous five games, so the Braves had him batting ninth today for the first time since June 23. Reaching four times might get him bumped back up to seventh on Saturday.

Drake Baldwin finished 0-for-4 with three strikeouts in a third straight hitless game Friday against the Brewers.

Baldwin is hitting .244/.280/321 in August, and his season OPS fell under .800 today. The Braves could try moving him down a few spots in the order until he resumes doing a better job of getting on base. The occasional day off against a lefty wouldn’t be a bad idea, either; he’s been in the Braves lineup as a catcher or DH every game since June 24.
