Pitchers Ryan Yarbrough and Luis Gil and right-handed hitting outfielder Austin Slater did not make the cut, while lefty-hitting catcher J.C. Escarra and right-handed pitcher Paul Blackburn were added.

Summary: Warren provides emergency depth, particularly if it gets to Game 3, when Schlittler would be starting an elimination game.
Fried starts Game 1, Rodon goes in Game 2. Gil started Sunday’s regular season final and would not have been available to pitch until Game 3 at the earliest.
