  • Andre Pallante SP | STL

    Cardinals' Andre Pallante: Logs six innings in ninth win

    Pallante (9-4) earned the win Monday, allowing one run on six hits and no walks over six innings against Arizona. He struck out two.

    Pallante's winning ways continued Monday, as he kept the Arizona offense quiet to earn his fourth straight victory. His two strikeouts matched a season low, though the right-hander has never relied on swing-and-miss stuff and instead thrives by generating groundballs. The 27-year-old owns a 3.59 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 64:25 K:BB across 82.2 innings (15 starts) and is tentatively scheduled to face Miami on Saturday.

  • Sam Antonacci LF | CHW

    White Sox's Sam Antonacci: Plays hero in Monday's win

    Antonacci went 2-for-4 with three RBI, a run scored and two steals in Monday's 6-5 win over Cleveland.

    With his team down to its final out, two runners in scoring position and trailing by a run, Antonacci lined an elevated fastball into center field to drive in both runners and emerge as the walk-off hero. The game-winning knock capped off a productive night in which he also recorded an RBI single and stole two bases in the seventh inning. The left fielder has put together a fantastic June, slashing .328/.438/.557 with three homers, five doubles, nine RBI, 14 runs and three stolen bases across 17 appearances this month. The rookie hasn't looked overmatched since debuting in mid-April, hitting .291/.391/.422 with 16 extra-base hits (four homers), 22 RBI, 37 runs and 11 stolen bases across 59 games.

  • White Sox's Seranthony Dominguez: Blows another save Monday

    Dominguez blew the save in Monday's 6-5 win over the Guardians. He allowed two runs on two hits and a walk while striking out one over one-third of an inning.

    After blowing a save Sunday against the Tigers, Dominguez was quickly handed another opportunity Monday and came up short once again. Entrusted with a one-run lead in the ninth inning, the right-hander allowed a walk, a single and a double before recording an out, squandering the lead in the process. After striking out Rhys Hoskins for the first out of the frame, Dominguez was lifted, and one of his inherited runners came around to score. However, the White Sox offense answered with a walk-off win in the bottom of the inning. The 31-year-old's grip on the closer role appears tenuous, as he owns a 4.45 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 33:16 K:BB while converting 12 of 17 save opportunities across 28.1 innings this season.

  • Gavin Williams SP | CLE

    Guardians' Gavin Williams: Strikes out eight in no-decision

    Williams did not factor into the decision Monday, allowing two runs on five hits and a walk over five innings against the White Sox. He struck out eight.

    Williams allowed a run in the second inning and another in the third frame, but he did a nice job of limiting the damage and avoiding crooked numbers. After logging at least six innings in eight starts entering June, the right-hander has failed to complete six innings in any of his four starts this month, topping out at 5.1 frames. Overall, the 26-year-old owns a 9-4 record with a 3.82 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 111:31 K:BB across 96.2 innings (16 starts) and is lined up to face the Mariners on Sunday.

  • Anthony Kay SP | CHW

    White Sox's Anthony Kay: Tosses six scoreless frames Monday

    Kay did not factor into the decision Monday, allowing three hits, two walks and a hit-by-pitch over six scoreless innings against the Guardians. He struck out eight.

    Kay pitched well enough to earn the win Monday, recording a season-high eight strikeouts and not allowing an earned run for the third time this season, though bullpen troubles ultimately cost the southpaw a victory. The outing marked a positive step in the right direction for the 31-year-old, who entered with an 8.31 ERA and 1.62 WHIP across 13 innings in his first three starts of June. He'll take a 6-2 record with a 4.24 ERA, 1.39 WHIP and 63:30 K:BB across 76.1 innings (16 appearances) into his next outing, which is lined up for the weekend against the Royals.

  • Austin Riley 3B | ATL

    Braves' Austin Riley: Trio of hits in loss

    Riley went 3-for-4 in Monday's 1-0 loss to San Diego.

    Riley has gone 9-for-23 (.391) over his last six games, but just one of those knocks has gone for extra bases. He's also piled up eight strikeouts without drawing a walk in that span. The third baseman continues to endure a down year -- he's batting .219 with a .650 OPS, eight home runs, 36 RBI, 31 runs scored, 12 doubles, one triple and four stolen bases over 77 games.

  • Grant Holmes SP | ATL

    Braves' Grant Holmes: Inefficient in tough-luck loss

    Holmes (4-4) allowed one run on three hits and five walks while striking out four over 4.2 innings to take the loss versus San Diego on Monday.

    Holmes threw 53 of 91 pitches for strikes. Manny Machado's solo shot in the fourth inning was the lone run, but Holmes' five walks were a season high that made this outing worse than what the runs column would suggest. The right-hander's June has been a bit disrupted, with a short start versus the White Sox on June 9 before his last outing was abbreviated by rain against the Giants. He's given up nine runs over 16.1 innings with a 12:12 K:BB over his four starts this month. Overall, Holmes has a 4.17 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and 65:37 K:BB across 73.1 innings through 15 starts. Until he can trim down his 4.5 BB/9, he'll be a risky option in fantasy. Holmes' next start is projected to be in San Francisco over the weekend.

  • Padres' Manny Machado: Provides lone run in win

    Machado went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, a double and a walk in Monday's 1-0 win over Atlanta.

    Machado had the lone extra-base hits for either team in this contest, and his fourth-inning homer off Grant Holmes proved decisive. Over his last 12 games, Machado has shown improvement, going 13-for-47 (.277) with three homers, seven doubles and 10 RBI. The third baseman is still batting just .185 with a .649 OPS, 14 homers, 42 RBI, 36 runs scored, 13 doubles and a stolen base over 75 contests.

  • Mason Miller RP | SD

    Padres' Mason Miller: Fans two for 21st save

    Miller allowed a hit and a walk and struck out two over a scoreless inning to earn the save in Monday's 1-0 win over Atlanta.

    Miller flirted with danger a bit, but he got the job done while protecting a thin lead. He's converted two saves in as many outings since returning from the bereavement list. The star closer is 21-for-21 in save chances this season while pitching to an excellent 0.84 ERA, 0.84 WHIP and 63:13 K:BB over 32 innings.

  • Michael King SP | SD

    Padres' Michael King: Bounces back for fifth win

    King (5-6) allowed six hits and struck out five without walking a batter over seven shutout innings to earn the win over Atlanta on Monday.

    King had given up at least three runs in each of his previous five starts, a span that including two where he didn't complete five frames. He responded Monday by matching his longest outing of the season to snap the skid. The right-hander is now at a 3.33 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 78:35 K:BB through 92 innings over 16 starts. He's been streaky at times in 2026, so this outing might help to get him back on track. King is projected to make his next start at home in a tough matchup versus the Dodgers.
