Eric Fryer - C - Cardinals

Eric Fryer has elected free agency.

Fryer cleared waivers after being designated for assignment but will look for a gig elsewhere. He's a strong defensive catcher but is a career .232/.320/.300 hitter over parts of seven seasons.
Jul 24 - 4:43 PM
Luke Maile - C - Blue Jays

Luke Maile (knee) is expected to return until late August or early September.

It will probably be September since the Blue Jays would only need him as a third catcher. Maile has been out nearly all of July with right knee irritation.

Stephen Piscotty - OF - Cardinals

Stephen Piscotty (groin) did some running pre-game on Monday.

Piscotty won't be activated from the disabled list when first eligible Tuesday as initially hoped, but it sounds like he's coming along. That said, a revised timetable for him hasn't been revealed yet.

Yu Darvish - S - Rangers

Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports that there's been "little indication" to this point that the Rangers will trade Yu Darvish.

The Rangers reported have put out feelers to see what Darvish could potentially bring back in return, but they've won three straight and sit just 2.5 games out of a Wild Card spot. They are also interested in re-signing Darvish to a long-term contract and figure they'd have a better chance to do it if they hang on to him. Unless the Rangers collapse over the next week, it seems likely that they'll hang on to their ace. Sherman notes that Darvish is "pretty much" the Dodgers' "only interest" among starters, so they could stand pat in that regard if the Texas righty isn't made available.

Tyler Pill - S - Mets

Mets recalled RHP Tyler Pill from Triple-A Las Vegas.

Pill holds a 5.00 ERA over five appearances -- three starts -- with the Mets this season. He could see starts in Zack Wheeler's (arm) place.
Jul 24 - 4:32 PM
Zack Wheeler - S - Mets

Mets placed RHP Zack Wheeler on the 10-day disabled list, retroactive to July 23, with a stress reaction in his right arm.

Well, that doesn't sound good, especially given Wheeler's arm injury history. It's unclear at this point how long the right-hander will be sidelined, but the out-of-contention Mets certainly figure to proceed cautiously. Tyler Pill has replaced Wheeler on the roster and could get some starts.
Jul 24 - 4:29 PM
Hunter Cervenka - R - Marlins

Marlins recalled LHP Hunter Cervenka from Triple-A New Orleans.

Cervenka holds a 4.50 ERA and 34/21 K/BB ratio over 34 innings at New Orleans this season. He'll work in middle relief.
Jul 24 - 4:24 PM
Tom Koehler - S - Marlins

Marlins optioned RHP Tom Koehler to Triple-A New Orleans.

Koehler has been a Marlins' rotation mainstay the last few years, but it speaks to how awful he's been in 2017 that he's now been optioned twice even while the club has a weak starting staff. The righty holds a 7.92 ERA over 12 starts in the majors this season.
