White Sox summon Hagen Smith and Tanner McDougal to the majors

The White Sox promote pitching prospects Hagen Smith and Tanner McDougal from Charlotte to Chicago ahead of Saturday’s game against the Guardians, adding potential bullpen upgrades as injuries and underperformance have strained the rotation. Smith has looked strong in relief since returning from a shoulder issue, with velocity around 95 mph, and McDougal has been sitting ~98 mph; both are highly regarded by MLB Pipeline and could factor into late-season high-leverage moments.

Mets send top prospect Francisco Álvarez to Triple-A Syracuse.

The New York Mets have optioned their top prospect, Francisco Álvarez, to Triple-A Syracuse, effectively ending his chances of making the Opening Day roster. Despite performing well defensively, Álvarez struggled offensively during the Grapefruit League, batting just .107/.194/.107 in 14 games. The Mets plan to platoon catchers Omar Narváez and Tomás Nido to start the season, with Álvarez potentially becoming an option later in the year. Álvarez is ranked as the third-best prospect in baseball by MLB Pipeline.
