Durbin went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Monday's 6-5 win over the Orioles.

Durbin was the latest hero in Boston's winning streak. His eighth-inning homer over the left-field wall provided the go-ahead run in the club's 14th consecutive victory. It was the 10th home run of the season for Durbin, whose revived bat mirrors that of the team's success. The third baseman is batting .351 (13-for-37) with two homers, five RBI, two steals and eight runs scored over the last 10 games.

Vargas went 3-for-5 with two doubles, two runs and two RBI in a 10-3 romp over the Rangers on Monday.

Vargas put Chicago on the board in the third inning with a run-scoring double. He added another RBI double in the ninth to help Texas put the game away with a five-run frame. Vargas finished with his fifth three-hit effort of the campaign and collected multiple extra-base hits in a contest for the ninth time. The first-time All-Star is in the midst of a breakout season, slashing .247/.354/.492 while already setting career-high marks in homers (21), RBI (61) and stolen bases (11) through 98 contests.

DeGrom (7-6) took the loss against the White Sox on Monday, allowing five runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out six batters over 4.2 innings.

DeGrom did fine over his first four innings, giving up just one run. However, things fell apart for him in the fifth, when he yielded four runs on four hits and a walk while retiring only two batters. The crushing blow was a bases-clearing double off the bat of Andrew Benintendi, which was followed by deGrom being removed from the contest. The veteran hurler was scratched from his final start before the All-Star break due to a mild left glute strain, but it's unclear if that had any bearing on his shaky performance Monday. DeGrom hasn't been as effective overall this season as in past campaigns, as he holds a 3.76 ERA -- on track for a career-worst mark -- through 105.1 frames spanning 19 starts.

Fedde completed four innings in a no-decision against Texas on Monday, allowing two runs on four hits and no walks while striking out six batters.

Though he didn't go very deep, Fedde was decently effective, racking up six punchouts and retiring the final eight batters he faced. The veteran right-hander has logged five or fewer frames in nine of his past 10 outings, but that approach seems to be working for him -- he's posted a 2.68 ERA while going 5-1 with a 35:15 K:BB across 43.2 innings during that span. Fedde has worked as both a traditional starter and a bulk reliever throughout the campaign, and though he doesn't have the most overpowering stuff, recent results suggest Chicago is getting the most out of the hurler by astutely managing how he is used.

Greene went 2-for-5 with a three-run home run and an additional run scored in Monday's extra-inning win over the Cubs.

Greene opened the scoring with a three-run homer in the first inning, a 408-foot blast to right-center field that left his bat at 102.1 mph. After going deep Sunday against the Angels, the left fielder has now homered in back-to-back games for the fourth time this season. The 25-year-old continues to get better and better, slashing .288/.379/.475 with 15 homers, 50 RBI, 52 runs and two stolen bases across 99 contests.

Dingler went 4-for-5 with two homers, three total RBI and three total runs scored in Monday's 8-6 extra-inning win over the Cubs.

Dingler was a driving force in the win, launching solo homers in the first and eighth innings before delivering an RBI single in the 10th frame to give the Tigers a 6-5 lead. It has been a breakout 2026 campaign for the 27-year-old, though Monday's long balls were his first since June 25. Overall, the catcher is slashing .268/.332/.524 with 21 homers, 63 RBI and 52 runs scored across 91 contests.

Holton picked up the save in Monday's 8-6 extra-inning win over the Cubs. He allowed one unearned run on two hits and no walks with no strikeouts over one inning.

After closer Kenley Jansen worked a scoreless ninth inning to force an extra inning, Holton was called upon to finish things off in the 10th frame. Entering with a three-run lead, the southpaw allowed the automatic runner to score and brought the winning run to the plate with two outs, but he induced a weak groundout from Carson Kelly to secure his first save of the season. Holton has been a reliable middle reliever in 2026, posting a 3.05 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 37:10 K:BB with nine holds across 44.1 innings.

McNeil went 1-for-1 with two RBI and a stolen base in Monday's 5-2 win over the Diamondbacks.

McNeil hit for Alika Williams in the seventh inning and delivered a two-run single to restore the Athletics' lead. The veteran utility man has had to settle for a part-time role for much of the season. He's hitting .269 (7-for-26) over 11 contests in July. Overall, McNeil is batting .236 with a .610 OPS, three home runs, 30 RBI, 26 runs scored, 11 doubles and two steals over 88 contests.

White went 4-for-5 with a run scored in Monday's 5-2 win over the Diamondbacks.

This was White's first multi-hit effort, coming in his third career game. The infield prospect is getting a chance to play steadily while Nick Kurtz (thumb) and Zack Gelof (knee) are out. White batted .303 with an .834 OPS over 55 games for Triple-A Las Vegas prior to his call-up coming out of the All-Star break. The Athletics' infield is a bit crowded when everyone's healthy, so it'll be up to White to force his way into the lineup on a consistent basis.

Wilson went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in Monday's 5-2 win over the Diamondbacks.

Wilson has six multi-hit efforts during his eight-game hitting streak. He's also homered in two of his last three contests, supplying four RBI in that span. The shortstop is batting .292 on the year and has added a .738 OPS, six homers, 30 RBI, 29 runs scored, 10 doubles, one triple and two stolen bases over 60 games.
