Twins put struggling starter Bailey Ober on injured list with left hip impingement
MIAMI (AP) — The Minnesota Twins placed struggling starting pitcher Bailey Ober on the 15-day injured list on Wednesday with a left hip impingement. Ober is 4-6 with a 5.28 ERA in 17 starts this season, with 21 home runs allowed and 74 strikeouts in 92 innings. In his last five starts, the 6-foot-9 right-hander is 0-5 with a 9.00 ERA and 14 home runs allowed in 30 innings. Left-handed reliever Kody Funderburk was recalled from Triple-A St. Paul to replace Ober on the roster, but the Twins still must decide who will take his turn in the rotation on Friday when they host Tampa Bay. The Twins played at Miami on Wednesday. Ober was one of Minnesota's best starters over the previous two years, going a combined 20-15 with a 3.73 ERA with 337 strikeouts in 323 innings. ___ AP MLB:

Shea Langeliers hits a 3-run homer for the A's in his return from an oblique injury
Shea Langeliers hit a three-run homer in his first at-bat with the Athletics after he was sidelined for 3 1⁄2 weeks with a strained left oblique. Langeliers was reinstated from the 10-day injured list on Monday. The catcher connected with two outs in the first inning in the opener of a three-game series at Tampa Bay, driving a 96-mph sinker from Drew Rasmussen deep to left-center. Langeliers's 11th homer of the season had an exit velocity of 111.1 mph and traveled 408 feet. The A's also brought up right-hander Justin Sterner and outfielder Colby Thomas from Triple-A Las Vegas. Outfielder JJ Bleday, catcher Willie MacIver, and right-hander Tyler Ferguson were sent down. The 27-year-old Langeliers got hurt when he fouled off a pitch from Minnesota's Kody Funderburk on June 5. He went 8 for 13 with a homer and four RBIs in three rehab games with Las Vegas. Langeliers was a first-round pick in the 2019 amateur draft.

Orioles reacquire well-traveled RHP Scott Blewett
June 7 - It did not take long for right-handed reliever Scott Blewett to find a new home. Perhaps it would be more accurate to refer to it as a previous, short-term home. One day after he was designated for assignment by the Braves, the Baltimore Orioles reacquired Blewett for cash considerations on Friday. Blewett, who is 2-0 with a 3.91 ERA in 15 relief appearances this season, has been DFA'ed and acquired three times this spring. He pitched in a pair of April games for Minnesota, then was designated on April 11 when the Twins recalled Kody Funderburk. The Orioles picked him up on waivers two days later. The 29-year-old Blewett threw 4 1/3 scoreless innings for Baltimore, but he was designated when the team needed a starter and recalled right-hander Brandon Young on April 19. The Braves acquired Blewett on April 20 and he did not allow an earned run in eight of 11 outings. Unfortunately for the well-traveled hurler, he was a major part of the Braves' bullpen meltdown on Thursday, when they surrendered a 10-4 ninth inning lead and fell 11-10 to the Diamondbacks. He allowed five earned runs in 1 1/3 innings before closer Raisel Iglesias could not hold a 10-8 advantage. Coincidentally, the Braves on Friday recalled veteran closer Craig Kimbrel, who struggled in Baltimore and was released a season ago. As of Friday evening, Blewett had not reported to the Orioles, who are in Sacramento this weekend to take on the Athletics this weekend. Another member of the Baltimore bullpen is expected to be designated when Blewett is placed on the active roster. In a related maneuver, the Orioles recalled outfielder Ramon Laureano (sprained left ankle) from the injured list and designated outfielder Jordyn Adams for assignment, opening a spot on the 40-man roster for Blewett. In parts of four seasons with the Kansas City Royals (2020-21), Twins (2024-25, Braves (2025) and Orioles (2025), Blewett is 3-1 with a 3.02 ERA in 66 games (two starts) since the Royals drafted him in the second round in 2014. --Field Level Media
