The Giants optioned Rodriguez to Triple-A Sacramento on Wednesday. With Robbie Ray (elbow) returning from the IL to start Wednesday's game against the Dodgers, Rodriguez will be left without a spot on the Giants' pitching staff. The 24-year-old joined the big-league bullpen in early May and has since posted a 4.19 ERA and 1.16 WHIP while striking out 44 batters through his first 43 career MLB innings.

Bailey (back) was signed to the Falcons' 90-man roster ahead of training camp Wednesday, Terrin Waack of the team's official website reports. Bailey spent the 2023 season with the Chargers organization, ending the year on the team's injured reserve with a back injury, which he appears to have fully recovered from. He will now get another shot to prove himself with Atlanta, looking to earn a spot on the team's active roster as a depth option on the offensive line.

The Astros optioned Salazar to Triple-A Sugar Land on Monday, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports. The move is to make room on the 26-man roster for Victor Caratini (hip), who was activated off the 10-day injured list Monday. Salazar has served as the backup catcher since he was initially called up June 11, and across nine major-league games he went 7-for-22 with two doubles and eight RBI. In Triple-A this season, Salazar is slashing .274/.387/.458 with six home runs and 35 RBI across 204 plate appearances.

The Astros designated Hensley for assignment Monday. The transaction opens up a spot on the 40-man roster for utility man Aledmys Diaz, whose contract was selected from Triple-A Sugar Land. After reaching the big leagues for the first time in 2022, Hensley made two starts for the Astros' World Series-winning club later that fall, but he's struggled to stick around in the majors ever since. The 28-year-old posted a lowly .380 OPS over 94 plate appearances with Houston in 2023 and had spent the entire 2024 season at Sugar Land, with whom he slashed .234/.352/.376 with seven home runs and 17 stolen bases over 81 games before being designated for assignment.
