(AP Photo/Eugene Hoshiko, File) ST. LOUIS (AP) — The Chicago Cubs selected the contract of right-hander Michael Fulmer from Triple-A Iowa and optioned right-hander Nate Pearson to Iowa on Monday ahead of a four-game series against the Cardinals. Fulmer, 32, returns to the Cubs after going 3-5 with two saves and a 4.42 ERA in 58 appearances for Chicago in 2023. Advertisement Fulmer missed the 2024 season after undergoing UCL revision surgery on his right elbow on Oct. 18, 2023. Fulmer, who was the 2016 AL Rookie of the Year with Detroit, had Tommy John surgery on March 27, 2019, and returned to the major leagues on July 27, 2020, just after the start of the pandemic-shortened season. 'It took me a few months to get stuff and velo back,' Fulmer said about his first Tommy John surgery. 'Once I got all the game reps I needed, my stuff came back. So, I think we're getting on that timeline now where I'm feeling good, body's feeling great, no complaints, stuff's starting to come back a little bit and I'm really just excited.' Fulmer signed a minor league deal with Boston on Feb. 2, 2024, but did not play for the rest of the season. He allowed three runs on four hits in his lone appearance with Boston in April at Tampa Bay before the Red Sox designated him for assignment four days later. Advertisement Fulmer inked a minor league contract with the Cubs on April 22 and went 1-0 with a 2.96 ERA in 24 1/3 innings over 15 games with Iowa. 'You know he's went through a lot, you know he's sticking with it,' Cubs manager Craig Counsell said. 'It's a sign of what you're made of, I think. It really is. I know moments like getting back to the big leagues are important, and they validate a lot of the hard work and a lot of the rehabs and a lot of the things like that. You're happy for guys like Michael who get a shot again.' Pearson was recalled from Iowa on Saturday, and allowed five runs on five hits and two walks in two innings on Sunday versus Seattle. Chicago (46-31) entered play Monday with a 3 1/2 game lead over Milwaukee and a 4 1/2 game lead over St. Louis in the NL Central Division. ___ AP MLB:

Reds designate Jeimer Candelario for assignment, still owing him $22.5 million through 2026

Reds designate Jeimer Candelario for assignment, still owing him $22.5 million through 2026

The Cincinnati Reds announced on Monday that infielder Jeimer Candelario has been designated for assignment by the team. In doing so, the Reds will still pay the 10-year major leaguer the remaining $22.5 million he's owed on the final year and a half on his contract Candelario, 31, was batting .113/.198/.213 with two doubles, two home runs and 10 RBI in 91 plate appearances this season. He had just finished a minor-league rehab assignment while finishing out an injured list stint for a lumbar spine strain. Rather than add him back to the active roster, the Reds decided to cut ties with the underperforming veteran. 'At the end of the day, you have to look at it as a sunk cost because you can't bring a player that's not going to help his team win,' Reds president of baseball operations Nick Krall told The Athletic's C. Trent Rosecrans. Advertisement While Cincinnati isn't getting impactful production from Spencer Steer (.230/.287/.352, 6 HR) at first base or Santiago Espinal (.244/.295/.290) and Christian Encarnacion-Strand (.202/.229/.384, 5 HR) at third base, all three players are less expensive and younger. Steer and Encarnacion-Strand started at their positions for Monday's matchup with the New York Yankees. Candelario signed a three-year, $45 million free agent deal with the Reds in December 2023 after hitting .251 with an .807 OPS and 22 home runs for the Washington Nationals and Chicago Cubs. The $22.5 million he's owed by Cincinnati comes from the remainder of his $16 million salary for this season, next year's $13 million and a $3 million buyout from an $18 million mutual option for 2027. The Reds have five days to explore a trade, but no MLB team will likely want to pick up that $22.5 million. Especially when Candelario wasn't hitting well on his rehab assignment, batting just .211/.318/.333 in 15 games. The same applies if a team were to claim Candelario on waivers. So he will likely become a free agent and look for a team that needs infield depth for the prorated major league minimum salary. In his 10 MLB seasons, Candelario has batted .237/.315/.411 with 190 doubles, 110 home runs and 384 RBI with the Cubs, Detroit Tigers, Nationals and Reds.
