NEW YORK — Jose Reyes is set to rejoin the New York Mets for Tuesday night’s game against the Miami Marlins, his return to the major leagues following a domestic violence suspension.

After Monday’s 8-6 comeback win over Miami, the Mets said Reyes was headed to New York following a minor league assignment with Double-A Binghamton.

The 33-year-old infielder, a four-time All-Star shortstop who played for the Mets from 2003-11, hit .176 (6 for 34) during 11 games in the minors that began with two for Class A Brooklyn.

REDS: Cincinnati dismissed pitching coach Mark Riggins, hoping to shake up a staff with the worst ERA in the majors.

Riggins was in his first season after spending the previous four years as the organization’s minor league pitching coordinator.

Cincinnati has a 30-54 record with a staff ERA of 5.51.

TIGERS: Detroit placed right-hander Jordan Zimmermann, who was scheduled to start Tuesday against Cleveland, on the 15-day disabled list with a right neck strain.

Zimmermann is 9-4 with a 3.95 ERA in 15 starts. He won his first five starts of the season and is 4-4 in 10 starts since.

Zimmermann signed a five-year, $110 million contract with Detroit in the offseason after compiling a 70-50 record in six seasons with Washington and making the NL All-Star team twice.

INDIANS: Cleveland designated veteran reliever Joba Chamberlain for assignment.

The team made several moves to help its overworked bullpen before Monday night’s game against Detroit. Left-hander Tom Gorzelanny also was designated for assignment, and right-hander Mike Clevinger and lefty T.J. House were recalled from Triple-A Columbus.

YANKEES: Pitcher Nathan Eovaldi is working out of the bullpen for now.

With Dellin Betances and Andrew Miller off limits on Monday, Manager Joe Girardi said Eovaldi was available in relief, but the hard-throwing right-hander watched as New York lost 8-2 to the Chicago White Sox in the opener of a three-game series. Fresh off his first major league win, rookie Chad Green will start Friday night at Cleveland.

Eovaldi dropped his fourth straight start when he lasted just 41/3 innings in Friday’s 7-6 loss to the Padres.

GIANTS: Right-hander Sergio Romo, the 33-year-old setup man, was reinstated from the 60-day disabled list after being sidelined since April 11 with an elbow injury.

MARINERS: Right-hander Felix Hernandez will throw a simulated game Wednesday.

Manager Scott Servais said Hernandez will throw 45 pitches. Hernandez has been on the disabled list with a calf injury since June 1.
