Charlie Condon RF | COL
Rockies' Charlie Condon: Pushing for promotion
Condon went 30-for-73 (.411) with 12 home runs, two doubles, five triples, 31 RBI and a 10:19 BB:K over his last 19 games with Triple-A Albuquerque.
Condon was the third pick in the loaded 2024 MLB Draft, and he is doing all he can to join a host of talented classmates at the top level. While Condon appears ready to see action at the big-league level, the Rockies are getting quality production at the two positions Condon has filled this season -- first base and right field -- so it's unclear just how close he is to getting the call.

Rockies' Ezequiel Tovar: Exiting starting nine
Tovar is not in the lineup for Thursday's game versus the Marlins.
It's a routine day off for Tovar, who has been one of the worst-hitting regulars in baseball this season with an ugly .205/.249/.325 batting line. Willi Castro will cover shortstop and bat cleanup for Colorado.

Drew Millas C | WAS
Nationals' Drew Millas: Productive in Wednesday's start
Milias went 1-for-3 with two walks and two runs scored in Wednesday's win over the Red Sox.
The 28-year-old remains firmly behind Keibert Ruiz on the catcher depth chart for the Nats, but Milias has been making a contribution of late while starting a couple times a week. Over his last five games dating back to June 16, the 28-year-old has gone 5-for-18 (.278) with a double, an RBI, three runs and a .381 OBP.

Nasim Nunez 2B | WAS
Nationals' Nasim Nunez: Pops first homer of year
Nunez went 1-for-4 with a walk and a solo home run in Wednesday's rout of the Red Sox.
The light-hitting infielder lofted a Payton Tolle fastball over the Green Monster in the fourth inning for his first homer of the season, and the fifth of his career in his 172nd MLB game. Nunez is still looking to escape the slump he got mired in late in June, and over his last nine contests he's batting just .160 (4-for-25) with 14 strikeouts.

Jacob Young CF | WAS
Nationals' Jacob Young: On base four times in win
Young went 2-for-3 with two walks, two doubles, a run scored and an RBI in Wednesday's win over the Red Sox.
The center fielder produced his first multi-hit performance since June 14, snapping a 4-for-36 (.111) slump over his prior 12 games. Young remains inconsistent at the plate, but he's flashing more power than ever before, slashing .225/.275/.376 in 277 plate appearances this season with a career-high eight homers along with eight steals, 31 RBI and 33 runs.

Padres' German Marquez: Pitches in relief again at Triple-A
Marquez (forearm) recorded two outs and allowed three earned runs on three hits and one walk during his rehab appearance Tuesday with Triple-A El Paso.
Marquez kicked off his rehab assignment June 2 and started in each of his first four appearances for El Paso, maxing out at five innings and 73 pitches. While his usage seemed to indicate that the Padres were considering Marquez for a spot in the rotation upon his return from the 15-day injured list, the veteran righty now appears to be preparing for a bullpen role. He's worked in relief in his last two outings for El Paso, striking out three while allowing four runs on six hits and three walks in 2.1 innings between those contests. Marquez's 30-day rehab window officially came to a close Wednesday, so the Padres could look to activate him at some point during their upcoming four-game series with the Dodgers.

Jefry Yan RP | NYM
Mets' Jefry Yan: Added to 40-man roster and optioned
The Mets selected Yan's contract and then optioned him to Triple-A Syracuse on Thursday.
Yan likely had an opt-out clause in his minor-league contract, and the Mets will add him to the 40-man roster to prevent him from leaving. The lefty reliever has struck out a whopping 63 batters over 33.1 innings between Double-A Binghamton and Syracuse in 2026, though he's also issued 24 walks. Yan has never pitched in the majors.

Francisco Lindor SS | NYM
Mets' Francisco Lindor: Goes yard again Wednesday
Lindor went 1-for-3 with a walk and a solo home run in Wednesday's loss to the Blue Jays.
The star shortstop has just four hits in 23 at-bats (.174) over six games since coming off the IL, but three of those knocks have gone for extra bases, including Lindor's ninth-inning shot off Patrick Corbin on Wednesday. Lindor's still trying to find his timing at the plate after missing two months due to a calf strain, but two long balls in the last three contests in an encouraging sign.

Ryan Walker RP | SF
Giants' Ryan Walker: Struggles Wednesday
Walker allowed four earned runs on four hits while failing to record an out in Wednesday's 6-4 win over the Diamondbacks.
Walker entered in the eighth inning and gave up three singles and a double before being pulled. The right-hander has surrendered six runs over 1.2 innings in his last three appearances, totaling 42 pitches during that span. He now owns a 7.06 ERA, 1.75 WHIP and 18:12 K:BB across 21.2 innings in 24 outings this season.
