Bowman, 34, had been designated for assignment by the O’s on Wednesday but he passed through waivers unclaimed and will continue to function as extra bullpen depth at the Triple-A level. He posted a 5.79 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and a 17/6 K/BB ratio over 23 1/3 innings in 19 appearances out of the O’s bullpen.

Westburg missed five straight games with his left index finger injury, and while he told reporters he won’t be 100 percent for a while, he’s good enough to go for the opening game against Atlanta on Friday.

As expected, O’Neill is ready to go to begin a three-game series against Atlanta. The 30-year-old ended up missing six weeks with his shoulder issue, and has not been effective in his first season in Baltimore. There’s time for that to change, and fantasy managers have seen what O’Neill is capable of when healthy and “locked in.”

There haven’t been any rumblings about any sort of injury for Hoskins, but this is the second time that he has found himself on the pine in the team’s last four ballgames. Jake Bauers will start in his place at first base and bat seventh against Marlins’ right-hander Sandy Alcantara.

Busch homered in each of his first two at-bats off Miles Mikolas as the Cubs set a franchise record with eight long balls. Seven of them were hit in the first three innings and Busch’s first two were absolutely crushed. They combined to travel 836 feet and each came against fastballs that were grooved right down the middle. Then, he hit a cheapie in the seventh inning off John King, but never got another plate appearance for a chance at what would’ve been a historic fourth homer. All four of his batted balls were hit at least 103 mph and he’s quietly been one of the best hitters in the National League to this point with 19 home runs, 59 RBI, and a .919 OPS. Overall, this has been an incredible breakout season for the 27-year-old first baseman.

Guerrero Jr. is not getting Independence Day off, but instead he’ll be out with discomfort in the foot. The 26-year-old should be considered day-to-day for now.
