The Padres recalled Mazur from Triple-A El Paso to start Friday's game against the Orioles.

Mazur is set for his eighth big-league start Friday and is back with the Padres for the first time since July 10. With Joe Musgrove (elbow) and Yu Darvish (elbow/personal) on the shelf, San Diego has been searching for a reliable fifth starter, a role Mazur could fill if he performs well Friday. However, Mazur has tallied a 7.84 ERA in 31.0 innings this season.

The Mets activated Senga (shoulder/triceps) from the 60-day injured list Friday.

Senga is set to make his season debut for the Mets on Friday against Atlanta after being sidelined with right shoulder and triceps problems. The plan is for the right-hander to throw around 85 pitches or five innings Friday after he threw 79 pitches in his final rehab start.

The Marlins will recall Meyer from Triple-A Jacksonville to rejoin their rotation this weekend in Milwaukee, Craig Mish of the Miami Herald reports.

Meyer last pitched with Jacksonville on July 20 and the Marlins have an opening in their rotation Saturday, so he'll be on plenty of rest for the start. The young right-hander was sent down back in April as a means to manage his workload, and he's pitched well of late, allowing just two runs with a 23:6 K:BB over 19 innings covering his last four Triple-A starts. Meyer has averaged 77.5 pitches in those outings, with a high of 86, and the Marlins will continue to keep a close eye on his workload down the stretch. Even with likely restrictions, Meyer is worthy of being scooped back up in fantasy leagues where he's available. He posted a 2.12 ERA and 14:3 K:BB over 17 frames in three starts for the Marlins earlier this season.

The Red Sox are in talks to acquire Paxton from the Dodgers, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.

Boston was immediately linked to Paxton after the left-hander was designated for assignment by the Dodgers and it sounds like a trade could come together soon. Paxton has collected an underwhelming 4.43 ERA, 1.46 WHIP and 64:48 K:BB in 89.1 innings over 18 starts this season, but he did post a 101:33 K:BB across 96 frames in 2023 with the Red Sox.

The Marlins outrighted Chirinos to Triple-A Jacksonville on Thursday.

Chirinos was removed from the Marlins' 40-man roster earlier this week but will remain in the organization after passing through the waivers unclaimed. He'll provide rotation depth at Jacksonville.

Cavalli (elbow/illness) was sent to High-A Wilmington on Thursday to resume his rehab assignment.

Cavalli hasn't pitched in more than a month, as he was pulled off his initial rehab assignment due to the flu. The right-hander is coming back from Tommy John surgery and there's been no indication he had a setback with his elbow, and he's now ready to ramp things back up. Cavalli had pitched well in his first three rehab starts, collecting a 2.16 ERA, 0.72 WHIP and 13 strikeouts in 8.1 innings. He'll need some time to get built back up but could be a candidate for the Nationals' rotation within the next month or so.

Severino did not factor into the decision in an extra-inning win over Atlanta on Thursday, allowing two runs on seven hits and two walks over five innings. He struck out six.

Severino allowed multiple baserunners in four of the six innings in which he appeared, and while he managed to limit the damage, the right-hander was unable to make it through six innings for the first time in nine starts. Severino has held opponents to two or fewer runs in each of his last three outings, though he's also walked multiple batters in four straight.

Sale did not factor into the decision in an extra-inning loss to the Mets on Thursday, allowing two runs on two hits and one walk over 7.1 innings while striking out nine.

Sale was efficient during the contest, with the exception of the third inning when he left a sinker hanging over the plate for Francisco Lindor to launch into the stands in center field for a two-run shot. The veteran lefty then retired 13 of the last 14 batters he faced before being relieved by Joe Jimenez with one out in the eighth. Sale has now given up two or fewer runs in eight consecutive starts, while the home run surrendered to Lindor was the first long ball he's allowed in July. Sale has also posted at least nine strikeouts in four of his last five outings.

Munoz allowed six runs on six hits and two walks while striking out three batters over five innings in a no-decision against Baltimore on Thursday.

Munoz struggled to keep the ball in the park Thursday, as three of the six hits against him were homers. He departed with a 6-0 deficit but managed to escape with a no-decision thanks to a late Miami rally. The right-hander entered the contest having not allowed a long ball in three straight outings, though home runs have been an issue for him most of the campaign -- he's yielded multiple homers in six of his 12 outings overall. Munoz has managed to stick in the rotation despite a 5.61 ERA, as Miami doesn't have many other options due to a slew of injuries to its starting staff.

Webb didn't factor into the decision Thursday against the Dodgers, allowing four runs on nine hits and three walks across five innings. He struck out four.

Webb surrendered at least four runs and eight hits for a third consecutive start, which has raised his ERA from 3.09 to 3.72. The right-hander also failed to complete six innings for the second time during that stretch after having thrown six or more frames in 11 consecutive outings. Webb's 135.1 innings this season are the third most in baseball, and he has a 115:35 K:BB. Webb is tentatively scheduled to face the Reds in Cincinnati for his next start.
