The Nationals are expected to call up Willingham from Triple-A Rochester on Sunday, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports. A 26-man roster spot opened up Saturday when Washington traded reliever Hunter Harvey to Kansas City in exchange for a minor-league infielder, and Willingham looks set to fill the vacancy in the bullpen. Although Harvey worked as a setup man, Willingham isn't likely to handle high-leverage work considering that he's logged a 4.54 ERA across 39.2 innings for Rochester this season.

The Twins designated Boushley for assignment Sunday. Boushley will cede his spot on the 40-man roster to infielder Diego Castillo, whose contract was selected from Triple-A St. Paul ahead of Sunday's game against the Giants. Aside from making a two-inning relief appearance for the Twins on May 20, Boushley has spent the entire 2024 campaign at St. Paul, with whom he's produced a 4.68 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 73:14 K:BB in 84.2 innings. If he goes unclaimed via waivers, Boushley should remain a member of the St. Paul rotation moving forward.

Diaz signed a minor-league contract with the Astros on Saturday, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports. Diaz was let go by the A's last week after posting a .236 OPS in 30 major-league plate appearances, but he'll now receive another opportunity with the Astros. He'll report to the team's complex in Florida in order to work on his mechanics before likely moving to Triple-A Sugar Land to fill in as organizational depth.

The Royals traded Wallace (oblique) and their Competitive Balance A pick to the Nationals on Saturday in exchange for reliever Hunter Harvey. Wallace has been recovering from a right oblique strain since late May, but he's appeared in seven rehab games with the Royals' Arizona Complex League affiliate. Prior to the injury, the 22-year-old was playing at Double-A Northwest Arkansas, where he slashed .282/.350/.427 with three homers across 140 plate appearances. The third baseman was the 49th overall pick in the 2022 draft.

The Guardians selected Oakie with the 84th overall pick in the 2024 First-Year Player Draft. A prep right-hander out of Iowa, Oakie didn't face high-level competition even by the standard of high-school pitchers, but he impressed the Guardians enough with his makeup and his mid-80s slider -- which already grades out as a plus pitch -- to come off the board in the third round. In addition to the slider, Oakie mixes in a fastball that sits around 92-to-94 miles per hour, but his arsenal is shallow beyond those two offerings. Though he has a slender build at 6-foot-3 and 200 pounds, Oakie has a quick, low-effort delivery that could allow him to stay on a starter's development track during his professional career.
