The San Francisco Giants have designated infielder Isan Díaz for assignment and reinstated outfielder Luis González from the injured list.

Díaz struggled in his limited time with the Giants, hitting just 1-19, while González is still working to regain his form after missing the early part of the season.
The Baltimore Orioles have placed infielder Ramón Urías on the 10-day injured list due to a hamstring strain. Lefty pitching prospect Drew Rom has been recalled from Triple-A Norfolk to take Urías' spot on the roster and is expected to make his MLB debut. The Orioles also optioned lefty reliever Keegan Akin back to Triple-A and designated third catcher Luis Torrens for assignment. Lefty bench batters Ryan O'Hearn and Terrin Vavra were also recalled. The move seems to be about adding a fresh pitcher who's already on the 40-man roster as insurance in case of a short start over the next couple of days.
The Pittsburgh Pirates have added outfielder Josh Palacios and right-hander Luis Ortiz to their roster, as part of a shake-up after a seven-game losing streak.

To make room for Palacios, the Pirates designated right-handed reliever Chase De Jong for assignment, while rookie reliever Cody Bolton was optioned to Indianapolis to make room for Ortiz.
