Giants Claim Philip Abner Off Waivers, Bolster Left-Handed Depth

The San Francisco Giants claimed left-hander Philip Abner off waivers from Arizona, optioned him to Triple-A Sacramento, and added left-hander Matt Wilkinson, with Reiver Sanmartin sent down to open a roster spot. Catcher Daniel Susac and outfielder Harrison Bader were moved to the 60-day injured list to clear 40-man space. Abner’s big-league numbers are limited, but his solid minor-league track record gives the Giants a chance to evaluate him and add left-handed depth.

Red Sox Option Bello to Worcester as La Sorsa Joins Active Roster for Bronx Opener

The Red Sox option Brayan Bello to Triple-A Worcester and add lefty reliever Joe La Sorsa to the active roster for the Bronx series opener, after Bello’s rough start left him at a 6.34 ERA over 61 innings with a career-worst 1.48 HR/9. Bello has struggled especially vs. left-handed hitters (.323/.384/.554 in 147 PAs), and Boston has used lefty openers in front of him with limited success. Bello pushed back on the bullpen-vs-start talk, reiterating he’s a starter having a bad season.

Mets Promote Nick Morabito to MLB Debut Amid Outfield Shuffle

The Mets will promote Nick Morabito for his MLB debut, filling the roster spot created by Austin Slater’s DFA. Morabito, a 23-year-old outfield prospect (No. 75 in the 2022 draft), has slashed .253/.364/.390 with 4 home runs and strong baserunning in Triple-A Syracuse and is viewed as a speedy, versatile defender who can handle all three outfield spots. With Juan Soto leaning into DH time due to injuries and rookies Carson Benge and A.J. Ewing contributing, Morabito could carve out a depth role while remaining on the 40-man roster with three minor league option years remaining, keeping him under club control through 2032 depending on service time.

A’s Promote Hottest-Hitting Prospect Bolte to the Majors

Oakland is promoting outfielder Henry Bolte from Triple-A to the majors, adding a powerful bat to a reshuffled outfield while Denzel Clarke is sidelined; Bolte sports a .348/.418/.658 line with 12 homers and 17 steals in 177 Triple-A plate appearances and is expected to play regularly in center as the Athletics balance their outfield and consider service-time implications (Super Two) if he stays in the majors.
