  • Emiliano Teodo SP | TEX

    Rangers' Emiliano Teodo: Sidelined at Triple-A

    Triple-A Round Rock placed Teodo on its 7-day injured list June 12 due to an unspecified injury.

    Teodo is on the shelf for the second time this season, after he previously missed about three weeks from late April through mid-May with a shoulder impingement. The 24-year-old right-hander has served as a full-time reliever for Round Rock when available, logging a 10.13 ERA, 2.25 WHIP and 19:17 K:BB over 16 innings.

  • Rich Hill SP | KC

    Royals' Rich Hill: Struggles with control in loss

    Hill (0-2) took the loss Monday against Atlanta, yielding four runs on three hits and six walks over four innings with three strikeouts.

    The veteran southpaw could not find the strike zone when it counted in this 81-pitch appearance, as he issued six or more free passes for the third time in his 21-year career. All four runs scored against Hill came on a pair of two-run long balls -- a 468-foot Ronald Acuna blast in the fourth and a 408-foot Marcell Ozuna homer in the fourth. In nine total innings across two starts, Hill has conceded seven runs (five earned) on nine hits and eight walks while striking out four. The 45-year-old currently lines up to make his next start on the road against Toronto this weekend.

  • Davis Martin SP | CHW

    White Sox's Davis Martin: Strikes out seven in third win

    Martin (3-8) picked up the win Monday against the Phillies, allowing two runs on six hits and three walks in 5.2 innings. He struck out seven.

    Martin's steady campaign continued Monday, as he threw at least five innings in his eighth consecutive start. The right-hander also matched a season high in strikeouts, and he's now tossed at least five frames while yielding two runs or fewer on nine occasions among his 16 outings in 2025. Martin owns a quality 3.87 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 63:26 K:BB over 90.2 frames, and he's next set to take the hill this weekend against the Angels in Anaheim.

  • Yankees' Cam Schlittler: Suffers first loss

    Schlittler (1-1) took the loss Monday against the Rays, conceding three runs on seven hits and four walks over 4.1 innings. He struck out five.

    The New York rookie stumbled out the gate, as Junior Caminero cracked a two-run blast in the opening frame. Schlittler then found a groove with three scoreless frames before conceding another run on a Josh Lowe single in the fifth. Through 14.2 total innings, the 24-year-old sports a 4.91 ERA, 1.84 WHIP and 15:9 K:BB with three home runs allowed. Schlittler's future in the Yankees rotation is uncertain because Luis Gil (lat) is expected to return after making his final rehab start with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday.

  • Rays' Drew Rasmussen: Collects eighth win

    Rasmussen (8-5) earned the win Monday against the Yankees, allowing two runs on four hits and two walks with five strikeouts over five innings.

    The Tampa Bay righty picked up his first win since June 25, which is also the last time he threw five frames. The Rays have been throttling Rasmussen's innings lately, as his season total now stands at 100.1 after tossing just 73.1 frames over his previous two seasons due to injuries. It didn't look like Rasmussen would qualify for the win after walking home two runs in the opening frame; however, he settled in after and conceded just one additional run over four scoreless innings to wrap his 81-pitch outing. Rasmussen will carry a 2.96 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and 87:25 K:BB into his next start against the Dodgers at home this weekend.

  • Zach Eflin SP | BAL

    Orioles' Zach Eflin: Hit around in no-decision

    Eflin did not factor into the decision in Monday's 11-4 win over the Blue Jays, allowing four runs on eight hits and one walk with three strikeouts over 4.1 innings.

    Eflin threw 56 of 79 pitches for strikes but managed just six whiffs while giving up nine hard-hit balls, including two homers in the third inning. Some rust is understandable in his second start back from the injured list, but it marked the fifth time in 14 outings the 31-year-old has allowed multiple home runs. He'll carry a 5.93 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and 50:13 K:BB across 71.1 innings into a tough road matchup with the Cubs this weekend.

  • Chris Bassitt SP | BAL

    Blue Jays' Chris Bassitt: Shelled early in loss

    Bassitt (11-5) took the loss against the Orioles on Monday, allowing six runs on seven hits and one walk with four strikeouts over 2.1 innings.

    Bassitt was tagged for six runs over the second and third innings, including back-to-back homers in the second. The rough outing puts a damper on what was previously a strong July, as the veteran entered Monday having yielded just seven earned runs in 26.1 frames this month. He'll take a 4.24 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 121:30 K:BB across 123 innings into a home matchup with the Royals this weekend.

  • Troy Melton P | DET

    Tigers' Troy Melton: Fires seven scoreless for first win

    Melton (1-1) earned the win against the Diamondbacks on Monday, allowing five hits and no walks while striking out five over seven scoreless innings.

    Melton was given an early lead and shut down one of baseball's best offenses in his second career major-league start. He generated 11 whiffs on 87 pitches and didn't allow an extra-base hit despite yielding 12 hard-hit balls. The 24-year-old had a breakout season in the minors, establishing himself as the Tigers' best pitching prospect, and he owns a 4.50 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 12:2 K:BB through 12 innings in the majors. He lines up for another tough matchup with the Phillies this weekend.

  • Pierson Ohl RP | COL

    Twins' Pierson Ohl: Set for MLB debut Tuesday

    The Twins plan to call Ohl up from Triple-A St. Paul to start or pitch in bulk relief in Tuesday's game versus the Red Sox, Theodore Tollefson of ZoneCoverage.com reports.

    Ohl began the season as a reliever at Single-A Fort Myers, but he has been excellent across three levels while splitting time between the bullpen and rotation, posting a 2.17 ERA, 0.95 WHIP and 79:10 K:BB over 66.1 frames. The 25-year-old hasn't worked more than four innings or thrown more than 68 pitches in an outing this season, so he will have a relatively limited workload Tuesday.

  • Angels' Jack Kochanowicz: Rejoins Angels' rotation

    The Angels recalled Kochanowicz from Triple-A Salt Lake on Monday, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

    Kochanowicz is set to rejoin the rotation with a start Monday against the Rangers, and he should have an opportunity to remain with the big club indefinitely. The sinkerballer has posted an uninspiring 6.03 ERA and 1.63 WHIP with 65 strikeouts over 94 innings in 19 starts with the Halos in 2025.
