MLB Teams Activate Multiple Pitchers From Injured Lists

Several Major League Baseball teams have activated key players from their injured lists as rosters expanded. The Baltimore Orioles activated Albert Suarez from the 60-day injured list after he recovered from a shoulder injury sustained in his first start of the season; Suarez is expected to serve as a long-relief bullpen option. Tyler Wells, also of the Orioles, is set for activation and will start against the Padres after missing time due to elbow surgery. The Tampa Bay Rays activated Richie Palacios from the 60-day injured list; after rehab games with Triple-A Durham, Palacios is expected to contribute in both second base and outfield positions. Meanwhile, the New York Yankees activated Ryan Yarbrough from the 15-day injured list; sidelined with a strained oblique, Yarbrough will now pitch out of the bullpen for the rest of the season. These moves reflect teams' efforts to strengthen their rosters as the season progresses into its final month.
