  • Will Warren SP | NYY

    Yankees' Will Warren: Logs career high in strikeouts

    Warren (3-2) earned the win against the Rangers on Tuesday, allowing five hits and one walk while striking out 10 across 5.2 scoreless innings.

    Warren didn't allow more than one baserunner through his first five innings. He loaded the bases in the sixth but avoided being tagged for any runs after being lifted for Mark Leiter, who struck out Joc Pederson. Warren has yielded three earned runs or fewer while striking out at least seven batters over his last four outings, and his 60 strikeouts (across 46.2 innings) are tied with teammate Max Fried for 10th in the American League this season. Warren is lined up to face the struggling Rockies on the road this weekend.

  • Jeff Hoffman RP | MIN

    Blue Jays' Jeff Hoffman: Sharp while securing 10th save

    Hoffman earned the save Tuesday against the Padres after throwing a clean ninth inning. He struck out one.

    Hoffman was sharp, making quick work of the heart of San Diego's batting order while hurling eight of his nine pitches for strikes. Tuesday marked a second consecutive scoreless outing for the hard-throwing right-hander, who had yielded 11 runs over his previous three innings of work. The Blue Jays have shown trust in Hoffman as their closer after signing him to a three-year contract this past offseason, and the 32-year-old righty carries a 1.13 WHIP and 32:5 K:BB while converting 10 of his 12 save opportunities despite a shaky 5.48 ERA across 21.1 innings in 2025.

  • Luke Weaver RP | PIT

    Yankees' Luke Weaver: Collects one-out save

    Weaver earned the save in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Rangers after recording the final out of the ninth inning.

    The Yankees entered the ninth inning up 5-0, but Weaver was brought in to close things out after Ian Hamilton gave up a two-run home run to Jonah Heim. Weaver was able to make quick work of Josh Smith, needing just two pitches to record the final out and earn the save. It's the second outing in a row in which Weaver has tallied a one-out save, and he is up to six saves on the season with a 0.44 ERA, 0.58 WHIP and 22:6 K:BB across 20.2 innings.

  • Chris Bassitt SP | BAL

    Blue Jays' Chris Bassitt: Six shutout innings in fourth win

    Bassitt (4-2) earned the win Tuesday against the Padres after allowing four hits and one walk in six scoreless innings. He struck out six.

    Tuesday marked Bassitt's first scoreless start in his last seven outings, and he also fanned six in his third straight appearance. The veteran right-hander's four hits allowed fell just one short of his season best, and he's now given up only one run over his past two starts after surrendering 15 runs across his prior four outings. Bassitt has thrown at least five innings in each of his 10 appearances this year, and he'll bring a strong 2.83 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 61:11 K:BB covering 57.1 innings into his next scheduled start against the Rays.

  • Orioles' Ramon Laureano: Exits with ankle injury

    Laureano was removed from Tuesday's game against Milwaukee with left ankle discomfort, Andy Kostka of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.

    Laureano's left foot got caught in the grass while he made a sliding attempt at catching a flyball in the fourth inning. He initially remained in the game after the incident but was pulled when the Orioles went back on defense in the fifth. The team hasn't specified the severity of his injury just yet, but he can be considered day-to-day for now.

  • Joe Ryan SP | MIN

    Twins' Joe Ryan: Will pitch in suspended game

    Ryan will pitch Wednesday for the resumption of Monday's suspended game against the Guardians, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.

    The right-hander was penciled in to start Wednesday's series finale for Minnesota, but he'll instead take the mound for the suspended contest after Tuesday's game was also postponed. The Twin's held a 2-1 lead after three innings when the game was pushed Monday, so Ryan will have a strong opportunity to secure his fourth win in five starts. After the completion of the suspended game, Chris Paddack will start Wednesday's regularly scheduled contest for the Twins.

  • Alex Cobb SP | DET

    Tigers' Alex Cobb: Receiving injections for hip

    Cobb is still dealing with inflammation in his hip and is scheduled to receive a series of injections this week, Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic reports.

    The 37-year-old opened the campaign on the injured list due to hip inflammation, which began bothering him at the start of spring training. Cobb received an epidural shot in late February to aid in his recovery, and he's now receiving some additional injections. The right-hander continues to play catch daily, but he'll likely require a significant ramp-up period before being cleared to pitch in games.

  • Cole Winn RP | TEX

    Rangers' Cole Winn: Back with Rangers

    The Rangers recalled Winn from Triple-A Round Rock on Tuesday.

    Just two days after being sent down to Triple-A, Winn will rejoin the Rangers' bullpen to replace the injured Chris Martin (shoulder). Winn, 25, has pitched 23.1 scoreless innings in the minors and also kept the Astros off the scoreboard for 2.1 frames during his season debut Friday.

  • Chris Martin RP | TEX

    Rangers' Chris Martin: Lands on injured list

    The Rangers placed Martin (shoulder) on the 15-day injured list Tuesday, retroactive to May 19, due to right shoulder fatigue.

    The right-hander exited Sunday's contest due to the shoulder injury after departing due to an elbow issue earlier in the week, and he's now headed to the injured list. It's unclear how long Martin is expected to be sidelined, but he'll be unavailable for at least the next couple weeks. Cole Winn was called up to fill the opening on the 26-man roster.

  • Matthew Lugo LF | KC

    Angels' Matthew Lugo: On bench Tuesday

    Lugo isn't in the Angels' lineup Tuesday against the Athletics.

    Prior to Tuesday, Lugo had started in five consecutive games. In that stretch, he went 6-for-19 with a home run and two RBI. However, he struck out eight times and did not manage a walk in that span. While the rookie has been hitting the ball well, he will get some rest Tuesday with Kyren Paris starting in center field.
