  • Brewers' Christian Yelich: Productive in easy win

    Yelich went 3-for-5 with two RBI, three runs scored and a walk in Monday's 16-2 win over the Giants.

    Yelich was notably one of seven Brewers to tally multiple hits Monday and one of six Milwaukee batters to register multiple RBI. The three-hit performance was the veteran slugger's fourth of the campaign as well. Through 109 at-bats, Yelich is hitting .275 with 10 extra-base hits, 18 RBI, 21 runs scored and three stolen bases.

  • Cardinals' Michael McGreevy: Hurls quality start but takes loss

    McGreevy (3-5) allowed two runs on five hits and two walks while striking out one batter over six innings in a loss to Texas on Monday.

    McGreevy began by tossing three scoreless innings before the Rangers scored one run in each of the fourth and fifth frames. Those were enough to hold up, as the Cardinals' offense managed just one run of support. As usual, McGreevy didn't miss many bats -- he had just six whiffs and one punchout -- but he nonetheless managed his seventh quality start of the campaign. Despite a paltry 6.0 K/9 and 3-5 record, the right-hander is having a solid season, posting a 2.98 ERA and 1.10 WHIP through 66.1 innings spanning 12 starts.

  • Brice Turang 2B | MIL

    Brewers' Brice Turang: Busy in lopsided win

    Turang went 2-for-2 with two RBI, two walks, two runs scored, a double and a triple in Monday's 16-2 win over the Giants.

    Turang recorded his second triple of the season and the 11th of his career. It was a breakout performance of sorts for the second baseman, who entered Monday in an 0-for-19 cold snap over his last six games. Through 244 trips to the plate in 2026, Turang is slashing an excellent .270/.401/.459 with seven home runs, 33 RBI, 46 runs scored and nine stolen bases.

  • Landen Roupp SP | SF

    Giants' Landen Roupp: Lit up in second inning

    Roupp (5-6) took the loss Monday against the Brewers, allowing eight runs on eight hits and five walks in four innings. He struck out four.

    The second inning was a disastrous one for Roupp, who was clobbered for seven of his season-worst eight earned runs on the evening. Only half of his 96 pitches landed for strikes Monday, and the 27-year-old right-hander also tied a season high in walks allowed. Roupp will be trying to put Monday's dud in the rear-view mirror his next time out against the Cubs in Chicago, where he'll take a 4.22 ERA, 1.31 WHIP and 72:27 K:BB over 64 innings.

  • Shane Drohan RP | MIL

    Brewers' Shane Drohan: Lasts four innings in no-decision

    Drohan took a no-decision Monday against the Giants, allowing two runs on four hits and two walks in four innings. He struck out five.

    Making only his second start of the year, Drohan threw a season-high 68 pitches Monday in an abbreviated outing. Additionally, the 27-year-old right-hander matched his season-high output in strikeouts. Drohan has an impressive 2.87 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 33:10 K:BB over 31.1 innings, but his streaming appeal could be limited during a matchup in Colorado against the Rockies for his next outing. Beyond that, the expectation is that Brandon Woodruff (shoulder) will take Drohan's place in Milwaukee's rotation once healthy.

  • Pirates' Carmen Mlodzinski: Activated from restricted list

    The Pirates activated Mlodzinski from the restricted list Monday, Jason Mackey of MLB.com reports.

    Mlodzinski's stay on the restricted list lasted 24 hours after he expressed frustration following his removal from the Pirates' rotation with the activation of Jared Jones from the injured list this past weekend. Mlodzinski is now putting his feelings aside and said Monday that he's willing to do whatever he can to help the team, as he's now going to come out of the Pittsburgh bullpen. The right-hander's stuff (92 Stuff+) has graded well below average this season as a starter. He's also given up a ton of hard contact with a second-percentile hard-hit rate of 50.9 percent. Mlodzinski was more effective as a reliever and spot starter prior to 2026.

  • Kodai Senga SP | NYM

    Mets' Kodai Senga: Third rehab start Wednesday

    Senga (spine) will pitch Wednesday for Triple-A Syracuse, reports Mike Puma of the New York Post.

    Senga will aim to throw around 85 pitches in his next rehab start on Wednesday for Triple-A Syracuse. If this start goes according to plan, the 33-year-old could potentially return to the big-league club following this appearance. In seven innings, Senga has recorded a 5.14 ERA, 1.57 WHIP and 7:3 K:BB during his two rehab starts.

  • Rockies' Welinton Herrera: Moved to 60-day IL

    The Rockies transferred Herrera (elbow) to the 60-day injured list Monday.

    Herrera landed on the 15-day IL on Saturday due to left elbow inflammation. The injury is severe enough for him to warrant a move to the 60-day injured list, meaning that the earliest he is eligible to be reinstated is in late July. The move also opened a spot on the Rockies' 40-man roster, which the team filled after selecting TJ Shook's contract from Triple-A Albuquerque.

  • Zach Agnos RP | COL

    Rockies' Zach Agnos: Sent down to Triple-A

    The Rockies optioned Agnos to Triple-A Albuquerque on Monday.

    The move makes room on the 26-man roster for TJ Shook, who had his contract selected by the Rockies. Agnos has struggled on the mound as of late, having given up 14 earned runs over his last two outings spanning three frames. That has ballooned his numbers to a 7.78 ERA and 1.57 WHIP across 37 innings this season. Agnos will work on his command issues in the minors and could return to the big club should the Rockies need more right-handed depth out of the bullpen.

  • TJ Shook RP | COL

    Rockies' TJ Shook: Called up by Colorado

    The Rockies selected Shook's contract from Triple-A Albuquerque on Monday.

    Shook has spent the entire 2026 season in Triple-A, where he has a 2.86 ERA, 1.10 WHIP, seven saves and a 29:8 K:BB across 28.1 innings. He'll operate out of the Rockies' bullpen, and his first call to the mound will be his major-league debut. In corresponding moves, Zach Agnos was optioned to Albuquerque and Welinton Herrera (elbow) was transferred to the 60-day injured list.
