Nimmo went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a second run scored in Wednesday's win over the Angels.

The veteran outfielder led off the bottom of the first inning by driving a Brock Burke slider over the fence in right-center field. Nimmo is one long ball away from recording his third straight 20-homer campaign, and he's enjoying a strong July, slashing .303/.390/.530 over 18 games with four home runs, four steals, 14 runs and 14 RBI.

Lindor went 2-for-4 with a run scored and two RBI in Wednesday's win over the Angels.

The shortstop had gone 0-for-28 over the prior six games, but Lindor's bat snapped to life with RBI singles in the third and fourth innings. The slump has left Lindor with a .200/.259/.360 slash line over 18 contests in July, but he's remained productive with three homers, three steals, 14 runs and 14 RBI in that same span.

Quero was removed Wednesday from Triple-A Nashville's 14-13 win over Charlotte after four innings due to an apparent left arm injury, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

The catching prospect appeared to suffer the injury to his non-throwing arm while attempting to tag out a baserunner earlier in the contest. The Brewers haven't provided an update on Quero's injury, but more information on his status could be available when he gets examined Thursday. After missing nearly all of the 2024 season while recovering from surgery to address a torn labrum in his right shoulder, Quero has slashed .259/.333/.362 with two home runs and two stolen bases over 129 plate appearances with Nashville in 2025.

Goodman went 2-for-3 with a walk Wednesday against the Cardinals.

Goodman went 7-for-21 while getting on base at a .364 clip across five games during the Rockies' homestand, tallying four RBI and two runs scored. He also struck out eight times, a larger trend across July for Goodman, as he has a 31.6 percent strikeout rate across 57 plate appearances during the month.

Beck went 2-for-4 with a double and an RBI on Wednesday against the Cardinals.

Beck had a strong six-game homestand coming out of the All-Star break, racking up three multi-hit performances across six games. He also chipped in three extra-base hits (one home run), four runs scored and three RBI. Across 17 games in July, Beck has maintained a .328 average with six RBI, six runs scored and two stolen bases.

Tovar went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Wednesday against the Cardinals.

Tovar led off the eighth inning with a solo home run, his fifth long ball of the season. It's a small sample since he returned from the injured list July 18, but Tovar has at least one hit in four of five games to go along with two homers, four RBI and four runs scored.

Luzardo didn't factor into the decision Wednesday against the Red Sox, allowing six runs on two hits and five walks in five innings. He struck out seven.

Luzardo's up-and-down season continued, as he surrendered at least five runs for the fourth time in his last 10 starts. He melted down during a calamitous fifth inning, when Boston drove in six runs on two hits and four walks in the frame. While the hard-throwing left-hander has fanned at least seven on six occasions across his last 10 outings, he's witnessed his ERA balloon from 2.15 on May 25 to 4.58 for the year following Wednesday's clunker. Luzardo has a 8.04 ERA, 1.79 WHIP and 59:24 K:BB over his last 47 innings, and things may not get much easier his next time out against a White Sox team with a .827 OPS versus left-handed pitching since the start of July.

Manager Dave Roberts said after Wednesday's win over the Twins that Betts may not be with the team Friday due to personal reasons, Sonja Chen of MLB.com reports.

It hasn't yet been confirmed if Betts will be unavailable for Friday's series opener in Boston, but it's certainly a situation worth monitoring. Miguel Rojas would presumably start at shortstop if the eight-time All-Star is unable to play.

Schwarber went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run and an additional RBI in Wednesday's 9-8 extra-innings loss to the Red Sox.

Schwarber clobbered homer No. 34 on the season, which ranks fifth in the major leagues. The All-Star slugger doesn't tend to hit for a high average, but he's done a fine job of keeping fantasy managers afloat in that category on top of his exceptional power production in 2025. Over his last 72 games (319 plate appearances), Schwarber is slashing .252/.367/.574 with 25 round trippers, 12 doubles, 55 RBI and seven stolen bases.

Ohtani went 1-for-4 with a solo home run, a walk and an additional run scored in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Twins.

Ohtani continued his remarkable power surge, tying a Dodgers franchise record by homering in his fifth consecutive game, per Sonja Chen of MLB.com. The two-way superstar continues to be a fantasy sensation in all formats in 2025. Since the beginning of May, Ohtani is slashing .268/.371/.646 with 30 long balls, 60 RBI, 65 runs scored and four stolen bases across 329 plate appearances.
