  • Rangers' David Davalillo: Making strong case for 40-man spot

    Davalillo has a 2.49 ERA, 1.01 WHIP and 51:17 K:BB in 50.2 innings across 11 appearances for Double-A Frisco.

    The 6-foot-1 Venezuelan righty gets better marks for his control and pitchability than his overall stuff, but he does boast a plus splitter to go with several other average-or-better offerings. After leading the minors with a 1.88 ERA in 2024, Davalillo logged a 2.12 ERA, 0.82 WHIP and 28.5 K-BB% in 51 innings for High-A Hub City before getting promoted to Double-A on June 20. He eclipsed 100 innings for the second year in a row and will likely be added to the Rangers' 40-man roster this offseason to protect him from the Rule 5 draft.

  • Daniel Eagen SP | ARI

    Diamondbacks' Daniel Eagen: Up over 110 innings

    Eagen has a 3.77 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 16:9 K:BB in 14.1 innings across three starts for Double-A Amarillo.

    Eagen, a third-round pick in 2024, logged a 2.49 ERA, 1.06 WHIP and 132:41 K:BB in 97.2 innings for High-A Hillsboro before getting promoted to Double-A on Aug. 19. He capped his run at High-A in impressive fashion, striking out 21 over 13 scoreless innings in his final two starts for the Hops. His performance at Double-A has been uneven, and his walk issues from earlier in the year have popped back up. The 6-foot-4 righty works in the low 90s with his four-seamer, but the pitch has excellent movement and plays better than its velocity. Eagen's low-80s curveball is his top put-away pitch, and he'll mix in a solid slider and seldom-used changeup. Eagen is up to 112 total innings in what has been a highly-successful debut season.

  • Frankie Montas RP | NYM

    Mets' Frankie Montas: Undergoing Tommy John surgery

    Montas will undergo Tommy John surgery on his right elbow Tuesday, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.

    A full UCL repair had been considered likely, and now it's official. The operation will likely sideline Montas until the 2027 campaign. Montas proved to be a disastrous investment for the Mets, posting a 6.28 ERA in seven starts and two relief appearances, and he will now undoubtedly exercise a $17 million player option for 2026.

  • Dustin May SP | STL

    Red Sox's Dustin May: Heading to 15-day injured list

    The Red Sox will place May on the 15-day injured list Tuesday due to an undisclosed injury, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.

    May had been scheduled to start Tuesday's game against the Athletics, but the Red Sox will now call up Connelly Early from Triple-A Worcester to take the hill instead. Though the nature of May's injury isn't known, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com relays that it's not considered serious, so the right-hander could have a shot to return later this month. May has been inconsistent during his time in Boston, posting a 5.40 ERA, 1.69 WHIP and 26:13 K:BB over 28.1 innings.

  • Connelly Early SP | BOS

    Red Sox's Connelly Early: Coming up for MLB debut Tuesday

    The Red Sox will call up Early from Triple-A Worcester to start Tuesday's game versus the Athletics in Sacramento, Mac Cerullo of the Boston Herald reports.

    Dustin May had been scheduled for the start but is headed to the 15-day injured list with an undisclosed injury. Early has collected a 2.60 ERA and 132:40 K:BB over 100.1 innings between Double-A Portland and Worcester this season. The left-hander is more of a high-floor than a high-ceiling prospect, and he will be making his MLB debut in a tough environment for pitchers, making him a risky streaming option in fantasy.

  • Liam Doyle SP | STL

    Cardinals' Liam Doyle: Promoted to Double-A

    Doyle was promoted from Single-A Palm Beach to Double-A Springfield on Tuesday.

    Doyle made his professional debut with Palm Beach this past weekend, allowing one run while striking out three over 1.2 frames. Palm Beach's season is now over, but the fifth overall pick in the 2025 First-Year Player Draft will continue pitching at the Double-A level as he gets his feet wet in pro ball.

  • Miles Mikolas SP | STL

    Cardinals' Miles Mikolas: Fades in no-decision

    Mikolas did not factor into the decision Monday, allowing two runs on four hits and a walk over five-plus innings against Seattle. He struck out two.

    The veteran starter held Seattle scoreless through five innings before running into trouble in the sixth frame, allowing two baserunners without recording an out before Gordon Graceffo came on and let both inherited runners -- plus two more -- cross the plate. While the season has been underwhelming overall for Mikolas, he's pieced together a solid stretch lately, logging a 2.25 ERA and 1.00 WHIP over 16 innings across his three most recent starts.

  • Bryan Woo SP | SEA

    Mariners' Bryan Woo: Earns 13th win

    Woo (13-7) earned the win Monday, allowing two runs on three hits and no walks over six innings in a 4-2 victory over St. Louis. He struck out nine.

    Woo delivered six strong innings Monday, halting a brief two-start stretch of shorter outings after previously going six-plus in each of his first 25 starts. The right-hander has been one of MLB's most reliable arms this season, compiling a 3.02 ERA and 0.95 WHIP across 175.2 innings in 28 starts. While not overpowering with strikeouts (9.1 K/9), his nine punchouts Monday tied a season high, and his elite command (1.7 BB/9) continues to fuel his consistency.

  • Nick Lodolo SP | CIN

    Reds' Nick Lodolo: Tosses five shutout frames

    Lodolo did not factor into the decision Monday, allowing two hits and a walk over five scoreless innings against the Padres. He struck out two.

    Lodolo returned from an illness that sidelined him for a start and turned in a sharp five-inning performance, though the Reds' bullpen gave away the lead and left him with a no-decision. The left-hander has quietly been excellent this season, posting a 3.10 ERA and 1.03 WHIP over 139.1 innings in 25 starts.

  • Yu Darvish SP | SD

    Padres' Yu Darvish: Battles in no-decision

    Darvish did not factor into the decision Monday, allowing three runs on six hits and no walks over 5.2 innings against the Reds. He struck out seven.

    Darvish surrendered a leadoff homer to TJ Friedl but settled in to grind out 5.2 serviceable innings, keeping the Padres in a game they ultimately won in 10 innings. It's been a challenging season for the veteran right-hander, who didn't debut until July 7 due to an elbow injury. Through 12 starts, he owns a 5.65 ERA and 1.17 WHIP across 57.1 innings as San Diego hopes he can find his form heading into the postseason.
