  • Michael Harris CF | ATL

    Braves' Michael Harris: Stays hot in loss

    Harris went 2-for-4 with a double in Sunday's loss to the Rangers.

    Atlanta managed only four hits in total, giving Harris little help in turning his knocks into run production. The center fielder has a five-game hit streak going in which he's batting .579 (11-for-19) with two doubles, two triples and two homers, but he'll need a much longer heater to climb out of his early season hole -- Harris' .618 OPS on the year is still over 100 points lower than his .722 mark from 2024.

  • Tekoah Roby P | STL

    Cardinals' Tekoah Roby: Undergoes Tommy John surgery

    Roby underwent Tommy John surgery Friday, Katie Woo and Keith Law of The Athletic report.

    Roby had landed on the 7-day injured list at Triple-A Memphis two weeks ago with an undisclosed injury, and as it turns out, he needed surgery on his pitching elbow that will likely keep him sidelined until the 2027 season. The righty had pitched well this season between Double-A Springfield and Memphis before getting hurt, collecting a 3.10 ERA and 87:19 K:BB over 78.1 innings covering 16 starts.

  • Matt Gage RP | SF

    Giants' Matt Gage: Throws scoreless inning in start

    Gage started Sunday's 5-3 loss to the Mets, tossing a perfect inning while striking out one.

    Gage made his first major-league start in Sunday's bullpen game, throwing seven of his 10 pitches for strikes. The left-hander had his contract selected from Triple-A Sacramento on July 18 and has now appeared in four games with San Francisco, surrendering a hit and a walk while striking out five across five innings. The 32-year-old has yet to give up a run through 10 outings between the Tigers and Giants this season, allowing eight hits with an 8:3 K:BB across 10.2 innings.

  • Willy Adames SS | SF

    Giants' Willy Adames: Multi-hit effort in defeat

    Adames went 2-for-5 with a run scored in Sunday's 5-3 loss to the Mets.

    Adames hit a single in the fifth inning before coming around to score and added another single in the eighth. The shortstop was one of two Giants players to record two hits, marking his third multi-hit performance in his last 10 outings. During that stretch, Adames is slashing .316/.409/.632 with nine runs scored, six RBI, three homers and three doubles across 44 plate appearances.

  • Sean Hjelle RP | SF

    Giants' Sean Hjelle: Dispatched to minors

    The Giants optioned Hjelle to Triple-A Sacramento on Monday.

    Hjelle made two relief appearances during his most recent stint with the big club, getting charged with three runs over two frames. His removal from the 26-man active roster clears a spot for lefty Carson Whisenhunt, who will be called up from Sacramento to make his major-league debut Monday against the Pirates.

  • Tobias Myers RP | NYM

    Brewers' Tobias Myers: Sent back to Triple-A

    The Brewers optioned Myers to Triple-A Nashville on Sunday.

    Myers was with the big club for a couple weeks as a bullpen piece, tossing three scoreless innings across two appearances. The right-hander will presumably rejoin the rotation at Nashville, where he's posted a 2.93 ERA and 54:16 K:BB over 58.1 frames covering 11 starts.

  • Bryan Reynolds LF | PIT

    Pirates' Bryan Reynolds: Getting back on track

    Reynolds went 1-for-3 with a double, an RBI and two runs scored Sunday against the Diamondbacks.

    Reynolds continues to have an inconsistent season, though he did perform well across the Pirates' nine-game homestand that ended Sunday. In total, he went 11-for-37 with five doubles, five RBI and seven runs scored. Reynolds still has just a .665 OPS across 100 games for the campaign, the lowest mark of his career except 2020.

  • Nick Gonzales 3B | PIT

    Pirates' Nick Gonzales: Struggling out of break

    Gonzales went 1-for-4 with two runs scored Sunday against the Diamondbacks.

    Gonzales led off the eighth inning with a single before coming around to score, also snapping a three-game hitless streak. He has struggled out of the All-Star break and more broadly in July, going only 13-for-70 with one home run, four RBI and seven runs scored across 19 games.

  • Erick Fedde SP | CHW

    Braves' Erick Fedde: Team debut coming Tuesday

    Fedde will start Tuesday against the Royals at Kauffman Stadium in his Atlanta debut.

    Fedde was acquired from the Cardinals via trade Sunday to help supplement a rotation that's been decimated by injuries. The right-hander had been designated for assignment by St. Louis after he was torched for 26 earned runs with an 8:11 K:BB over his last 17.2 innings.

  • Braves' Hunter Stratton: Sent back to minors

    Atlanta optioned Stratton to Triple-A Gwinnett on Monday.

    He's clearing out to make room on the roster for Erick Fedde, who has officially reported to the team after being acquired via trade with the Cardinals on Sunday. Stratton made one appearance during his brief time with Atlanta, tossing two-thirds of a scoreless inning despite yielding one hit, one walk and one hit batsman.
