- Braves Activate Nick Markakis; Johan Camargo Diagnosed With Shin Fracture September 14, 20199:50pm: Camargo isn’t necessarily done for the season, according to manager Brian Snitker (Twitter link via Gabriel Burns of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution).

- Yankees Outright Adonis Rosa September 14, 2019The Yankees announced today that they have outrighted right-hander Adonis Rosa. He cleared waivers after recently being designated for assignment.

- Athletics Release Chris Herrmann September 13, 2019The Athletics announced today that catcher Chris Herrmann was released. He had rejected an outright assignment after clearing release waivers.

- Giants Sign Andrew Triggs To Minors Contract September 12, 2019In a transaction that flew under the radar back on August 30, the Giants signed righty Andrew Triggs to a minor league deal, as per Roster Roundup (Twitter link).

- Blue Jays Release Clayton Richard, Activate Elvis Luciano September 12, 2019The Blue Jays have released left-hander Clayton Richard, Sportsnet’s Hazel Mae reports (Twitter link). As expected, the team used the open 40-man roster spot to reinstate righty Elvis Luciano from the 60-day injured list.
