Atlanta will recall Elder from Triple-A Gwinnett to start Game 2 of Saturday's doubleheader against the Cardinals, Justin Toscano of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports. With Friday's game against St. Louis being pushed back to Saturday due to rain, Elder will join Atlanta for a spot start in the nightcap. The 25-year-old righty owns a 5.71 ERA and 1.62 WHIP through 34.2 innings in the majors this season, though he allowed just two runs in six frames when he started against the Cardinals on June 26.

McCullers said Friday that he has no structural damage in his right elbow/forearm, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports. Although he isn't dealing with any structural damage, McCullers still has not resumed throwing after being shut down July 9. However, manager Joe Espada said the right-hander may be able to restart a throwing program within the next several days depending on how he feels. McCullers hasn't pitched in an MLB game since 2022 and still figures to be at least several weeks away from a return to the Astros.

An MRI this week on Tatis' injured right quadricep showed improved healing, and the outfielder is expected to incrementally increase his baseball activities, Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

The Padres selected Ornelas' contract and optioned him to Triple-A El Paso on Wednesday. Ornelas has spent the entire 2024 season at El Paso, slashing .316/.390/.515 with 12 home runs and five stolen bases across 310 plate appearances. Though he'll remain with El Paso coming out of the All-Star break, the 24-year-old outfielder is now a part of the Padres' 40-man roster. The transaction should improve his chances of receiving his first big-league call-up at some point later this season.

The Rays placed Diaz (personal) on the restricted list Saturday, Tricia Whitaker of Bally Sports Sun reports. Diaz was away from the Rays during Friday's game against the Yankees tending to a personal matter, and it remains unclear when he might return as he moves to the restricted list. In the meantime, Isaac Paredes will take over as the Rays' first baseman, and Curtis Mead will come up from Triple-A Durham to provide Tampa Bay with some additional infield depth.

The Grizzlies traded Williams (back/hip) and a 2030 second-round pick to the Mavericks in exchange for Mamadi Diakite on Friday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports. Williams made 51 appearances, including 15 starts, for the Grizzlies in 2023-24 before missing the remainder of the season with a right lower back injury and a hip flexor strain. Before going down to injury, the 22-year-old forward averaged 8.2 points, 3.5 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 20.4 minutes. However, efficiency was an issue, as he shot just 39.7 percent from the field and 30.7 percent from three. If Williams is able to enter the 2024-25 campaign healthy, he will likely compete for depth minutes in Dallas' forward rotation.

Jackson dished out six assists over 32 minutes of play Thursday, adding 17 points (4-14 FG, 7-8 FT), seven rebounds, two triples and one steal in an 88-77 win over the Pelicans in Las Vegas. Jackson's season high in dimes last season was four, but he had some impressive assists...

Shane Lowry's opening 5-under 66 may have been lower, but his second-round 69 might be the better effort. Reaching 7 under at the 2024 Open Championship, the Irishman grabbed the solo lead at Royal Troon and now firmly stands as the man to beat heading into the weekend in Scotland.

Trainer Brad Cox will attempt to win for a third time when he sends out Grade 1 winner Timberlake in the 2024 Haskell Stakes on Saturday at Monmouth Park in Oceanport, N.J. The 44-year-old Cox won the Haskell in 2021 with Mandaloun and in 2022 with Cyberknife. On Saturday, he goes for No. 3 with Timberlake, who won the Champagne Stakes last year. Timberlake is an 8-1 longshot to win among the 2024 Haskell Stakes horses. Belmont Stakes runner-up Mindframe is the 9-5 favorite in the 2024 Haskell Stakes odds. Belmont Stakes winner Dornoch is 5-2, while Fierceness scratched on Saturday morning.

Hendricks recorded 20 points (9-10 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds, a steal and a block across 29 minutes of Wednesday's 86-76 win over the Raptors in Summer League. Hendricks paced the Jazz in points and rebounds Wednesday, falling just one rebound shy of a double-double. The second-year forward had combined to score 11 points in his first two Summer League games in Las Vegas, so Wednesday's outburst was a much-needed bounce-back game. Hendricks started in 23 of his 40 appearances as a rookie and is slated to open the season as Utah's starting power forward.

Jazz's Taylor Hendricks: Flirts with double-double

Houston worked out Jackson (undisclosed) on Friday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Jackson was waived by the Giants with an injury settlement back in May, so he's now looking for another opportunity to make an impression. Given that the Texans signed Joe Mixon this offseason, still have Dameon Pierce under contract and just spent a draft pick on Jawhar Jordan, the path to a roster spot in Houston would be narrow for Jackson even if he did get signed.
