MLB in Brief: Patrick Corbin in the Bullpen | Simeon Woods Richardson in Buffalo

Possible pitchers for tomorrow include Corbin and Spencer Miles (Miles will now be stretched out again). The Jays may also use an opener.

The final decision will be made after the Jays finish tonight's game. According to Schneider,

Corbin took the news of the change in stride.

Simeon Woods Richardson has cleared waivers and been assigned to Triple-A Buffalo.

A good outcome for the #BlueJays, who could now have some time to stretch Woods Richardson back out as a true starter.

The Blue Jays hope to be deadline buyers, of course. Ultimately, their record over the next 27 games will go a long way toward determining what the front office does. It's a chance for the players to prove they're worthy of further investment.https://t.co/lj4qr1lesd

The Mets have signed Christopher Morel to a minor-league deal, a source tells ESPN. The deal includes three opt-out clauses. The first one is on July 15. Morel batted .162 with a .425 OPS in 22 games for the Marlins before being designated for assignment. @WillSammon reported the news.

I feel like there's a shift in the vibe around the Cubs. Now we're commending them for weathering a plague of injuries.

Monday night's win continued that trend. My column from Wrigley: https://t.co/olH6qrTvdF
