Yankees Promote George Lombard Jr., Eyeing Shortstop Upgrade

Yankees promote top prospect George Lombard Jr. to the majors, opening a 40-man spot by optioning Anthony Volpe, Jasson Dominguez, and Angel Chivilli to Triple‑A and adding Heliot Ramos in a Giants trade. Lombard, who’s been productive in the minors (.268/.405/.440 with 6 homers and 10 steals in 262 PAs for Scranton) after an earlier finger sprain, is expected to bring strong defense, speed, and a patient approach at short and could provide a solid regular floor, though this move is more about depth than an immediate rookie-chasing impact.

Marlins Call Up Robby Snelling for MLB Debut Friday

The Miami Marlins designated Chris Paddack for assignment and promoted left-handed pitching prospect Robby Snelling, who is slated to start Friday against the Nationals. Snelling, 22, has a 1.86 ERA and a 40% strikeout rate across six Triple-A starts this year, featuring a mid-90s fastball and a plus curve, though his command could improve. The promotion gives Miami a potential long-term rotation piece behind Sandy Alcantara and signals a push to build around a nucleus of young arms.

Red Sox Promote Jhostynxon Garcia as Wilyer Abreu Heads to IL

The Boston Red Sox are promoting outfield prospect Jhostynxon Garcia to the majors due to Wilyer Abreu's injury, with Garcia expected to make his MLB debut soon. Garcia, a 22-year-old Venezuelan, has shown strong offensive performance in the minors and was added to the 40-man roster last year. His promotion is partly due to outfield logjam and Abreu's calf injury, which is minor. Garcia's future in the majors depends on roster moves and service time considerations, but for now, he will join the team in a key postseason race.

Jordan Westburg Gets Call-Up to Orioles.

The Baltimore Orioles are set to promote top infield prospect Jordan Westburg for his major league debut. Westburg was selected 30th overall by Baltimore in the first round of the 2020 draft and has impressed with his performance in the minors, slashing .295/.372/.567 with a wRC+ of 131 in Triple-A this season. The Orioles will need to make a 40-man roster move to accommodate Westburg in addition to clearing space for him on the active roster. Despite a crowded infield picture, Westburg's impressive numbers have earned him the promotion.
