  • Diamondbacks' Geraldo Perdomo: Logs two RBI in win

    Perdomo batted second in the order and went 2-for-4 with a triple and two RBI in Friday's 7-3 win over St. Louis.

    Perdomo tripled in the first inning but was stranded there, and he then singled in a pair of runs in Arizona's three-run second inning. He took the second spot in the batting order against a right-hander, which typically is the domain of Ketel Marte, but Marte was placed on the restricted list to deal with a burglary at his home in Phoenix. Perdomo spent one game batting ninth just before the break, but that may have been a one-game decision. He's spent most of the last month in the upper third.

  • Masyn Winn SS | STL

    Cardinals' Masyn Winn: Picks up steal Friday

    Winn went 2-for-4 with a stolen base and a run scored in Friday's 7-3 loss to the Diamondbacks.

    Winn has swiped a bag in each of his last two games after going 18 contests without attempting a steal. The shortstop has warmed up with the bat with a trio of multi-hit efforts across his last six games, going 8-for-25 (.320) in that span. On the season, he's been just fine without standing out, slashing .258/.319/.380 with seven home runs, six steals, 32 RBI, 56 runs scored and 19 doubles over 86 games.

  • Corey Seager SS | TEX

    Rangers' Corey Seager: Keeps mashing Friday

    Seager went 1-for-4 with a double and two RBI in Friday's 2-0 win over Detroit.

    Friday marked Seager's third multi-RBI outing in 13 games to open the month of July. The star shortstop endured a miserable June -- he hit just .188 while slugging .353 last month -- but he's returned to the form fantasy managers have grown accustomed to seeing since then. Through 48 at-bats in July, Seager is hitting .354 with three home runs, six doubles and nine RBI.

  • Cody Freeman SS | TEX

    Rangers' Cody Freeman: Promoted to majors

    The Rangers selected Freeman's contract from Triple-A Round Rock on Friday, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Freeman has spent all season in Triple-A, where he owns a .315/.367/.494 slash line alongside 12 homers, 54 RBI, 60 runs scored and eight steals through 79 games. The 24-year-old has spent most of his time this year at third base, but he also has experience at second, shortstop and catcher. He'll presumably serve as bench depth while Sam Haggerty (ankle) is on the IL.

  • Gabriel Arias SS | CLE

    Guardians' Gabriel Arias: Starting rehab assignment

    Arias (ankle) will begin a minor-league rehab assignment Friday with Triple-A Columbus, SI.com reports.

    Arias has been on the shelf since July 1 with a sprained left ankle, but after making significant progress leading up to the All-Star break, he's been cleared to begin a rehab assignment. The 25-year-old should be back in Cleveland before the calendar flips to August.

  • Ezequiel Tovar SS | COL

    Rockies' Ezequiel Tovar: Activated Friday

    Tovar (oblique) was activated from the 10-day injured list prior to Friday's game against the Twins.

    Tovar, who also missed time with a hip injury earlier this year, hit .120 with zero extra-base hits, zero walks and six strikeouts in six rehab games in the Pacific Coast League. While he struggled on his rehab assignment and hasn't gotten going at the plate in the majors either (.708 OPS, three homers in 32 games), Tovar is set for three games in Coors Field this weekend, so he's a solid option in most formats.

  • C.J. Abrams SS | WAS

    Nationals' CJ Abrams: Back in action Friday

    Abrams (shoulder) is starting at shortstop and batting leadoff Friday against the Padres, Spencer Nusbaum of The Washington Post reports.

    The 24-year-old was scratched from the lineup for the final game of the first half last Sunday due to shoulder soreness, but he's good to go coming out of the All-Star break. Through 82 games this season, Abrams is on pace for a career campaign with 12 homers, 20 steals and a .287/.353/.483 slash line.

  • Ha-seong Kim 2B | ATL

    Rays' Ha-Seong Kim: Returns to lineup

    Kim (foot) is batting eighth and playing shortstop Friday against Baltimore.

    Kim fouled a ball off his left foot Sunday and was removed from the contest. However, X-rays came back clean, and he's been cleared to play in Tampa Bay's first game post-All-Star break. He's 5-for-22 (.227) in 2025.

  • Cam Devanney 3B | PIT

    Pirates' Cam Devanney: Reporting to Triple-A with new club

    The Pirates optioned Devanney to Triple-A Indianapolis after acquiring him from the Royals on Wednesday in exchange for infielder/outfielder Adam Frazier.

    Though Frazier's departure clears a spot on the 26-man active roster, the Pirates are instead expected to call up another player from the minors to fill the vacancy ahead of Friday's game against the White Sox. In the meantime, Devanney should receive regular playing time at Indianapolis, and his ability to play every infield position as well as the corner outfield should earn him a look with the big club before long. After the Royals called him up from Triple-A Omaha on July 8, Devanney didn't make his MLB debut last week before he was dealt to the Pirates. The 28-year-old produced at a high level for Omaha, slashing .272/.366/.565 with 18 home runs and three stolen bases across 288 plate appearances.

  • Cam Devanney 3B | PIT

    Pirates' Cam Devanney: Dealt to Pirates

    The Pirates acquired Devanney from the Royals on Wednesday in exchange for Adam Frazier, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.

    Devanney had received his first major-league promotion on July 8 but had yet to see any game action for the Royals. The 28-year-old slashed .272/.366/.565 with 18 home runs this season with Triple-A Omaha, and he offers the ability to play every infield position and also left field. The right-handed-hitting Devanney could get some looks against left-handed pitching in Pittsburgh.
