Richards gets the call to join Kansas City’s bullpen mix ahead of Saturday’s game against the division-rival White Sox roughly one month after signing a minor league contract with the club. The 32-year-old righty posted a lackluster 4.55 ERA across 65 1/3 innings (55 appearances) last year between the Blue Jays and Twins.

Bowlan heads back to the minors after compiling a pedestrian 4.09 ERA across 11 innings (nine appearances) this season in the big leagues.

Yates rejoins the Dodgers’ high-leverage mix after missing three weeks recovering from a hamstring strain. The 38-year-old former closer could wind up getting some save chances with lefty Tanner Scott continuing to struggle in the role.

Kopech returns to Los Angeles’ overworked relief corps after missing 10 weeks at the outset of the season recovering from a shoulder impingement. The hard-throwing 29-year-old righty was a certifiable weapon last year after coming over from the White Sox at the trade deadline, compiling a stellar 1.13 ERA and six saves across 24 innings of work. He could factor in the club’s closing mix at some point in the coming weeks, but will likely handle lower-leverage work right out of the gate.

That didn’t take long. Stratton’s latest stint with the Dodgers lasted less than 24 hours. The 34-year-old righty has been booted from Los Angeles’ bullpen mix to make room for Michael Kopech and Kirby Yates to return from the injured list. He’s made three relief appearances for the club in a pair of stints since May 31.

It’s official. McGreevy will be recalled from Triple-A Memphis later this weekend to square off against Dodgers legend Clayton Kershaw at Busch Stadium. The 24-year-old righty is coming off a series of strong outings at the Triple-A level of late and will get the opportunity to make a spot start in the majors before the Cardinals decide his future. It’s a challenging assignment facing Los Angeles’ star-studded lineup, which makes it challenging to recommend him as a streaming option, even in deeper mixed leagues.
