  • Angels' Sam Aldegheri: Set to be recalled

    The Angels will recall Aldegheri from Double-A Rocket City prior to Tuesday's contest against the Rangers, Jon Morosi of MLB Network reports.

    Aldegheri will give the Halos a fresh relief arm after the bullpen was needed for four innings in Monday's win over Texas. The 23-year-old lefty previously made one relief appearance earlier this season for the Angels, allowed two unearned runs over 2.1 frames back on June 4 in Boston. Aldegheri has collected a 4.83 ERA and 63:40 K:BB in 72.2 innings as a starter at Rocket City this season.

  • David Fry LF | CLE

    Guardians' David Fry: Provides cushion in win

    Fry went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Monday's 7-5 win over the Astros.

    Fry provided insurance with a solo blast in the ninth inning, paving the way for Cleveland to snap a 10-game losing streak. He continues to be the designated hitter against left-handers, but Fry doesn't have a lock on that role. Since being reinstated from the 60-day injured list, he's batting .153 (9-for-59) with three home runs and five RBI over 26 games.

  • Astros' Taylor Trammell: First homer of 2025

    Trammell went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Monday's loss against the Guardians.

    Trammell hasn't seen regular playing time since making his season debut June 23 following a right calf strain, but he managed to connect for his first home run of the year in Monday's game. The 27-year-old owns a career .626 OPS across 326 MLB at-bats, so it remains to be seen whether he can carve out a longer-term role on the active roster.

  • Jose Ramirez 3B | CLE

    Guardians' Jose Ramirez: Cranks three-run bomb

    Ramirez went 2-for-5 with a double and a three-run home run in Monday's win over the Astros.

    The switch-hitter delivered a three-run homer off Colton Gordon in the fifth inning to provide the power Monday. Ramirez came into the contest in a slump, batting just .139/.225/.222 with one extra-base hit and three RBI over his previous 10 games. Despite the recent struggles, he continues to post strong overall numbers, slashing .298/.361/.495 with 33 extra-base hits (15 home runs), 42 RBI and 22 stolen bases through 86 games.

  • Emmanuel Clase RP | CLE

    Guardians' Emmanuel Clase: Nails down 19th save

    Clase earned the save against the Astros on Monday by throwing a perfect ninth inning.

    Clase rebounded from Sunday's blown save against the Tigers by retiring the Astros in order Monday, closing out a 7-5 win by inducing three groundouts. His 2025 numbers -- a 3.20 ERA and 1.32 WHIP over 39.1 innings -- aren't anywhere near as eye-popping as last season's 0.61 ERA and 0.66 WHIP in 74.1 innings, but the flamethrower's underlying metrics remain strong. A 2.49 FIP this year compared to 2.22 in 2024 suggests he's still pitching at a high level. The jump in walk rate to 2.3 BB/9, his highest since 2019, has certainly contributed to the statistical dip, but Clase remains a top-tier reliever.

  • Tanner Bibee SP | CLE

    Guardians' Tanner Bibee: Loses steam in no-decision

    Bibee did not factor into the decision Monday, allowing four runs on four hits and one walk over 4.2 innings against the Astros. He struck out three.

    The right-hander cruised through four innings Monday before a three-run homer by Taylor Trammell and a solo shot from Isaac Paredes tied the game and chased him with two outs in the fifth. Bibee has hit a rough patch over his last eight starts dating back to May 27, recording a 5.36 ERA and 1.26 WHIP over 45.1 innings during that span. While still serviceable, his overall season numbers -- a 4.35 ERA and 1.23 WHIP in 103.1 innings across 18 starts -- mark a step back from his 2024 campaign, when he posted a 3.47 ERA and 1.12 WHIP over 173.2 innings in 31 outings.

  • Mike Tauchman CF | NYM

    White Sox's Mike Tauchman: Trio of hits in loss

    Tauchman went 3-for-5 with a double and two RBI in Monday's 8-4 loss against Toronto.

    Tauchman tallied his fourth consecutive multi-hit game and drove in a run for the third straight contest during Monday's loss. The outfielder has been a steady contributor this season, slashing .299/.382/.458 with 14 extra-base hits and 18 RBI over 39 games. While he may not command a massive haul, Tauchman is likely to bring Chicago a solid return at the trade deadline from a contender looking to lengthen its lineup.

  • Joey Loperfido LF | HOU

    Blue Jays' Joey Loperfido: Delivers first MLB homer of '25

    Loperfido went 2-for-4 with a home run and three total RBI in Monday's 8-4 win over the White Sox.

    Loperfido recorded a multi-hit performance and launched his first home run of the season in just his second game since being called up from Triple-A Buffalo. He may not be locked into an everyday role with the Blue Jays just yet, but his ability to play all three outfield spots could allow him to gain traction in the lineup if he's able to maintain a hot bat.

  • Sean Burke SP | CHW

    White Sox's Sean Burke: Fades late in eighth loss

    Burke (4-8) took the loss Monday, allowing six runs on six hits and three walks over five-plus innings against the Blue Jays. He struck out two.

    The right-hander allowed three runs over the first five innings before running into major trouble in the sixth inning, when Bo Bichette, Addison Barger and Alejandro Kirk helped break the game open and derail his final line. Burke has been used as a starter, swingman and bulk reliever this season, showing flashes in each role but struggling to find consistency. Through 18 appearances, he owns a 4.40 ERA and 1.42 WHIP across 92 innings.

  • Jose Berrios SP | TOR

    Blue Jays' Jose Berrios: Picks up sixth win

    Berrios (5-3) earned the win Monday, allowing one run on two hits and two walks over six innings against the White Sox. He struck out four.

    Berrios was effective Monday, limiting baserunners and working efficiently despite not recording many strikeouts, needing just 76 pitches to get through his outing. The right-hander has been boom-or-bust lately, allowing six earned runs in two of his past eight starts but one or fewer in the other six, resulting in a 2.61 ERA and 1.01 WHIP across 48.1 innings during that span. On the season, the 31-year-old holds a 3.53 ERA and 1.21 WHIP over 112.1 innings in 19 starts.
