  • Diamondbacks' Gabriel Moreno: Delivers lone run in loss

    Moreno went 3-for-4 with a double and an RBI in Thursday's 5-1 loss to the Padres.

    Moreno continued his RBI binge when he singled home Arizona's lone run in the third inning. He's plated runners in 14 of 18 contests since the All-Star break, compiling 18 RBI during that stretch. Moreno is up to 50 RBI through 87 contests this season, tying the career high he set over 111 games in 2023.

  • Connor Wong C | BOS

    Red Sox's Connor Wong: Launches third homer

    Wong went 2-for-3 with a two-run homer and a double in Thursday's 12-11 extra-innings win over the White Sox.

    Making a third straight start with Adley Rutschman (wrist) not yet available, Wong got the Red Sox on the board in the third inning with a two-run shot off Luis Castillo, his third homer this year. Wong had been slumping at the plate coming into Thursday, going 0-for-16 in his last six contests. Overall, he's slashing .252/.341/.377 through 177 plate appearances this season with 19 RBI, 17 runs scored and three steals.

  • Gary Sanchez C | MIL

    Brewers' Gary Sanchez: Delivers homer in win

    Sanchez went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Pirates.

    After sitting six straight games, Sanchez got the start Thursday while William Contreras received a day of rest. The veteran catcher snapped a 2-2 tie in the fifth inning by taking Braxton Ashcraft deep for a solo home run. Sanchez added a single an inning later for his sixth multi-hit effort of the season. Since the beginning of July, he is batting 7-for-29 (.241) across 11 games. On the year, he owns a .223 batting average with an .818 OPS over 196 plate appearances.

  • Edgar Quero C | CHW

    White Sox's Edgar Quero: Headed back in big leagues

    The White Sox are expected to recall Quero from Triple-A Charlotte prior to Friday's game against the Guardians, Francys Romero of BeisbolFR.com reports.

    With Joey Bart suffering a broken hand in Thursday's loss to the Red Sox, Quero will rejoin the big-league club to form a catching tandem with Drew Romo at catcher. Neither Quero nor Romo has produced well at the big-league level this season, so the two could be used in a timeshare behind the plate until one separates himself from the other or until Bart or Kyle Teel (ankle) returns from the injured list. Over 193 plate appearances with the White Sox this season, Quero has posted an ugly .492 OPS with two home runs and one stolen base.

  • Joey Bart C | CHW

    White Sox's Joey Bart: Suffers fractured hand

    Bart suffered a fractured fifth metacarpal in his left hand after being hit by a pitch Thursday versus the Red Sox.

    Bart took a 97.7-mph fastball from Erik Miller off his left hand with two outs in the top of the seventh inning, and he was immediately removed from the game. The catcher will likely undergo additional imaging, and an update on his status will likely come thereafter.

  • Tigers' Dillon Dingler: Power surge continues Thursday

    Dingler went 3-for-6 with a home run, an additional run scored and three total RBI in Thursday's 11-0 win over the Mariners.

    Dingler continued his impressive power surge as he led Detroit's offensive onslaught Thursday. The slugging backstop has gone deep in three straight games and has four homers across his last six contests, pushing him up to 26 for the season. Dingler came into the year with 14 career long balls at the MLB level, so he has certainly exceeded expectations in 2026. The 27-year-old ranks second in the majors in home runs among catchers and leads his position group with 78 RBI.

  • Padres' Luis Campusano: Idle Thursday

    Campusano is not in the lineup Thursday versus the Diamondbacks.

    Campusano went 0-for-4 with a strikeout in Wednesday's 10-4 loss to the Diamondbacks. He'll get a chance to reset on the bench Thursday as Freddy Fermin gets the start behind the plate and bats eighth.

  • Reds' Tyler Stephenson: Goes deep in win

    Stephenson went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Thursday's 6-5 win over the Athletics.

    Stephenson's homer in the bottom of the fourth inning tied the game at 3-3 after the A's took a lead in the top half of the frame. It was the fourth home run in the last 13 contests and 10th of the season for the pending free agent catcher, who has burnished his market value since the break. In 14 second-half games, Stephenson has slashed .319/.418/.702 with seven walks, four homers, six doubles, nine RBI and nine runs scored.

  • Seby Zavala C | LAD

    Tigers' Seby Zavala: Joins Tigers on MiLB deal

    The Tigers signed Zavala to a minor-league contract and assigned him to Triple-A Toledo, Emily Waldon of Baseball America Reports.

    Zavala had played in 16 games at the Triple-A level in 2026 for the Dodgers at Triple-A Oklahoma City prior to being let go in June. He slashed .196/.323/.353 with three extra-base hits (including two home runs) across 62 plate appearances with OKC. The 32-year-old made his last MLB appearances in 2024 for Seattle.

  • Ryan Jeffers C | MIN

    Twins' Ryan Jeffers: Getting break Thursday

    Jeffers will receive a routine day off after starting each of the previous six contests. Victor Caratini will do the catching and bat eighth for the Twins.
