  • Nick Morabito LF | NYM

    Mets' Nick Morabito: Heading to big leagues

    The Mets recalled Morabito from Triple-A Syracuse on Tuesday, Will Sammon of The Athletic reports.

    Morabito, 23, has slashed .253/.364/.390 with four home runs and 14 stolen bases across 41 contests with Syracuse this season. He can handle all three outfield spots and is expected to garner some starts against left-handed pitching.

  • Jake Irvin SP | WAS

    Nationals' Jake Irvin: Fans six in no-decision

    Irvin didn't factor into the decision Monday against the Mets. He allowed three runs (one earned) on five hits and a walk while striking out six across four innings.

    Irvin gave up a solo shot to Brett Baty in the top of the fourth inning, but the other two runs he allowed were unearned due to errors from James Wood and Luis Garcia, respectively. Irvin has pitched more than five innings just once all season long, and he hasn't secured a win since doing so in his season debut back on March 29. Irvin owns a 5.59 ERA and a 1.46 WHIP across 46.2 innings through 10 starts this season, and he's scheduled to make his next start over the weekend against Atlanta on the road in what projects as another challenging matchup.

  • Paxton Schultz RP | WAS

    Nationals' Paxton Schultz: Woeful outing Monday

    Schultz (0-1) was tagged with the loss Monday against the Mets after allowing seven runs (six earned) on five hits and a walk over one-third of an inning.

    Schultz entered the game in the 11th inning but couldn't get the job done. Even though he retired the first batter he faced on a sac bunt, Schultz allowed six straight baserunners before departing the contest. The game was so out of reach by the time he was lifted that manager Blake Butera decided to send third baseman Jorbit Vivas to pitch the rest of the way instead of deploying another arm out of the bullpen. Schultz had given up just five earned runs in his previous 13 appearances (17.2 innings) this season, but this was likely a one-off, disastrous outing for the young right-hander.

  • Mets' Huascar Brazoban: Earns win Monday

    Brazoban (3-1) earned the win in extra innings Monday against the Nationals after allowing an unearned run on two hits and two walks across two innings. He struck out one.

    Brazoban faced a bases-loaded jam with one out in the 10th inning but escaped it unscathed. Even though he allowed a run in the 11th frame, he benefited from the fact that the Mets scored 10 runs in the 12th inning to earn his third win of the season. The run he allowed was unearned, giving him three straight outings without an earned run. Brazoban has been used as an opener at times, but for the most part, he holds a steady role out of the Mets' bullpen. The veteran hurler is enjoying a career-best season thus far, posting a 1.85 ERA and 0.99 WHIP through 20 appearances and 24.1 innings in 2026.

  • Mets' Christian Scott: Fans five in no-decision

    Scott didn't factor into the decision Monday against the Nationals, allowing three runs on four hits and three walks while striking out five across four innings.

    Scott has yet to pitch past the fifth inning in any of his five big-league starts this season, and his inability to go deep into games limits his fantasy stock. The 26-year-old righty's done a good job of limiting the damage though, as he's allowed two or fewer earned runs in four of those five outings. Scott will carry a 4.12 ERA, 1.47 WHIP and 25:12 K:BB across 19.2 innings into his next start, which is scheduled for this weekend's road series against the Marlins.

  • Diamondbacks' Ryan Waldschmidt: Productive performance in big win

    Waldschmidt went 3-for-3 with two doubles, an RBI, two runs scored, two steals and a walk in Monday's win over the Giants.

    Waldschmidt turned in the best offensive performance of his young career, tallying a pair of doubles as part of his first three-hit effort in the majors. The 23-year-old also turned it loose on the basepaths, recording the first multi-steal game of his career. The early returns through 10 contests have been promising, as Waldschmidt is slashing .313/.371/.438 with four doubles, six RBI, three runs and three stolen bases.

  • Diamondbacks' Gabriel Moreno: Goes yard in lopsided win

    Moreno went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run and an additional run scored in Monday's victory over the Giants.

    Moreno joined the scoring onslaught with a 105.7 mph, two-run blast off Robbie Ray in the fifth inning. The backstop has been locked in at the plate of late, recording four consecutive multi-hit performances. Overall, Moreno is slashing .261/.309/.409 with two homers, seven doubles, 14 RBI, 13 runs and two stolen bases across 97 plate appearances.

  • Nolan Arenado 3B | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Nolan Arenado: Swats grand slam

    Arenado went 1-for-4 with a grand slam in Monday's victory over San Francisco.

    Arenado opened the scoring in a big way, blasting a grand slam off Robbie Ray in the first inning to help fuel a blowout victory. After an ice-cold first two weeks of the season, the veteran third baseman has raked to the tune of a .320/.417/.598 slash line with seven homers, 22 RBI, 21 runs and a stolen base over his past 30 games. After posting a career-worst .666 OPS in 107 games with St. Louis in 2025, Arenado has enjoyed a resurgent 2026 campaign in Arizona with an .810 OPS through 44 contests.

  • Zac Gallen SP | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Zac Gallen: Earns second win Monday

    Gallen (2-4) earned the win Monday, allowing two runs on four hits and a walk over six innings against San Francisco. He struck out five.

    Afforded ample run support, Gallen turned in his second quality start of the campaign en route to his second victory. It was a much-needed positive performance for the right-hander, who had surrendered 14 earned runs across 14.1 innings over his previous three starts. The 30-year-old will carry a 4.78 ERA, 1.43 WHIP and 34:15 K:BB across 49 innings (10 starts) into his next outing, which is tentatively scheduled for Saturday against Colorado.

  • Padres' Miguel Andujar: Lifts key solo homer

    Andujar went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Monday's 1-0 win over the Dodgers.

    Andujar provided the lone offense in Monday's pitcher's duel, blasting a solo homer off Yoshinobu Yamamoto in the first inning. While San Diego's stars have struggled at the plate, Andujar has been one of the club's most effective contributors, particularly of late during an active seven-game hitting streak in which he has posted two homers, five RBI, five runs and a 1.035 OPS. Overall, the 31-year-old is slashing .298/.319/.504 with 17 extra-base hits (four homers), 15 RBI, 14 runs and a stolen base across 135 plate appearances.
