Joel Peralta - R - Rays

Rays activated RHP Joel Peralta from the 15-day disabled list.

Peralta was out for 15 days after contracting the chikungunya virus while vacationing in the Dominican Republic over the All-Star break. The right-hander threw a scoreless rehab inning on Saturday in High-A ball.
Jul 28 - 2:53 PM
Erik Bedard - S - Rays

Rays designated LHP Erik Bedard for assignment.

Bedard registered a 4.76 ERA and 1.49 WHIP in 15 starts and two relief appearances for Tampa Bay. The 35-year-old southpaw was dumped Monday to open up a roster spot for Joel Peralta, who was activated from the disabled list in a corresponding roster move.
Jul 28 - 2:51 PM
Jason Lane - R - Padres

Jason Lane allowed just one run over six-plus innings but took the loss Monday against the Braves.

The one run he allowed was on an Evan Gattis solo shot that led off the bottom of the seventh inning. And that was enough for Atlanta on a day that the San Diego offense managed just five total hits and zero runs. Lane was sharp in his first major league start, striking out two Braves hitters and issuing no walks. He could get another turn in the Padres' rotation soon.

Jake Marisnick - OF - Marlins

Mariners recalled OF Jake Marisnick from Triple-A New Orleans.

Marisnick is just 8-for-47 (.170) this season at the major league level. The 23-year-old outfielder has posted promising speed and power numbers in the minors, but he is doubtful to hold fantasy relevance in 2014.
Jul 28 - 2:45 PM
J.T. Realmuto - C - Marlins

Marlins optioned C J.T. Realmuto to Triple-A New Orleans.

Realmuto was only in the majors for a couple of days this time around. The 23-year-old catcher is 4-for-20 (.200) in seven games this season with the Marlins.
Jul 28 - 2:43 PM
Darwin Barney - 2B - Cubs

According to Mark D. Gonzales of the Chicago Tribune, infielder Darwin Barney is headed to the Dodgers.

Barney was designated for assignment by the Cubs last week after batting just .244/.290/.335 in parts of five seasons with Chicago. He is a very good defensive second baseman -- with a Gold Glove Award to prove it -- but the 28-year-old simply can't hit.

Andres Torres - OF - Red Sox

Red Sox released OF Andres Torres.

Torres exercised the out clause in his minor league contract after batting .292/.311/.472 with three home runs and eight RBI in 18 games at Triple-A Pawtucket. The 36-year-old outfielder may already have another deal lined up, but he's doubtful to reach the majors in 2014.

Rusney Castillo - OF - Player

Matt Gelb of the Philadelphia Inquirer reports that the Phillies are going to hold a private workout with Cuban outfielder Rusney Castillo on Tuesday.

Castillo's showcase on Saturday in Miami drew officials from 28 major league teams and the 27-year-old apparently put on a show, running a 60-yard dash in 6.4 seconds and showing impressive power to all fields during batting practice. Castillo is represented by Jay-Z's Roc Nation Sports management group and is thought to be seeking a contract worth more than the $42 million that Yasiel Puig got from the Dodgers. The Red Sox and Yankees also have private workouts scheduled.
