  • Steven Kwan LF | CLE

    Guardians' Steven Kwan: Fighting out of slump

    Kwan went 1-for-4 with a stolen base in Monday's 3-1 win over Arizona.

    Kwan extended a hit streak to six games, during which he's gone 9-for-24 (.375) with two extra-base hits, three steals and five runs scored. Prior to his recent uprising, Kwan went 6-for-40 (.150) over nine games. He's up to 14 stolen bases through 118 contests.

  • Jarren Duran LF | BOS

    Red Sox's Jarren Duran: Delivers three runs in loss

    Duran went 1-for-3 with a double and three RBI in Monday's 6-3 loss to Baltimore.

    Duran produced a run with a sacrifice fly in the seventh inning and then two more in the ninth with a double. It was the third consecutive game with a two-bagger for Duran, who leads the club with 34 of them. He's up to 69 RBI through 123 games and is poised to top the career-high 75 he posted over 160 games in 2024, when he was the club's primary leadoff hitter.

  • Nate Lowe 1B | CLE

    Red Sox's Nathaniel Lowe: Makes Boston debut

    Lowe entered Monday's game as a pinch hitter, walked and scored a run in a 6-3 loss to the Orioles.

    Lowe pinch hit in the bottom of the ninth inning and was not needed for the field. He was officially added to the roster Monday and wasn't in the starting lineup against a left-hander. Lowe could enter the starting nine Tuesday against Baltimore right-hander Tomoyuki Sugano.

  • Orioles' Samuel Basallo: Drives in pair of runs

    Basallo went 2-for-5 with a two-run double and a run scored in Monday's 6-3 victory over Boston.

    Basallo has made his presence felt right away at the big-league level, driving in two runs in each of his first two games and notching his first extra-base hit Monday. The top prospect drew the start behind the plate in the contest, and while Adley Rutschman's presence means he won't hold that role on a full-time basis, Basallo should still find regular at-bats at first base or designated hitter when he isn't catching.

  • Dylan Beavers LF | BAL

    Orioles' Dylan Beavers: Perfect at plate Monday

    Beavers went 2-for-2 with an RBI and two walks in Monday's 6-3 win over the Red Sox.

    Beavers reached safely in all of his trips to the plate Monday, highlighted by a scorching RBI single in the fourth inning. The budding prospect has opened his big-league career with a hit in each of his first three games, going 4-for-11 with a double and an RBI.

  • Orioles' Gunnar Henderson: Pumps 15th homer in win

    Henderson went 2-for-4 with a triple, a home run, two RBI and three runs scored in Monday's 6-3 victory over the Red Sox.

    Henderson launched a missile off Dustin May in the third inning to open the scoring Monday to snap a seven-game homer-less streak. He then added a scorching triple in the seventh inning to drive in another run. Despite Baltimore's disappointing season, the star shortstop has been great, posting an .824 OPS with 29 doubles, five triples, 15 homers, 57 RBI and 16 steals in 118 games.

  • Dustin May SP | MIL

    Red Sox's Dustin May: Takes ninth loss

    May (7-9) took the loss Monday, allowing two runs on eight hits and two walks over six innings against Baltimore. He struck out five.

    May worked around traffic to post six solid innings Monday, but Boston's offense didn't heat up until too late in the loss. Since joining the Red Sox, the right-hander has gone 1-2 with a 2.87 ERA and 1.47 WHIP across 15.2 innings in three starts.

  • Trevor Rogers SP | BAL

    Orioles' Trevor Rogers: Stellar seven innings

    Rogers (6-2) earned the win Monday, allowing a run on four hits and a walk over seven innings against the Red Sox. He struck out seven.

    Rogers shined Monday, keeping Boston scoreless until Jarren Duran's sacrifice fly in the seventh inning. The southpaw has been outstanding this year, posting a 1.41 ERA and 0.80 WHIP across 76.1 innings in 12 starts, with five of those outings lasting seven or more frames. While Rogers doesn't dominate hitters with overpowering velocity or filthy breaking stuff, his strong command and knack for inducing ground balls have fueled his success.

  • Victor Mederos RP | ATL

    Angels' Victor Mederos: Falls behind early in loss

    Mederos (0-1) allowed three runs on nine hits and three walks while striking out three over five innings to take the loss versus the Reds on Monday.

    Mederos gave up a two-run home run to Gavin Lux in the first inning, and the Angels were never able to overcome that early damage. Over his first two big-league starts, Mederos has allowed six runs on 12 hits and six walks across nine innings. He'll need to cut down on the baserunners to have a chance to be more effective in a starting role. Should he get another start, he is tentatively projected for a home outing versus the Cubs this weekend.

  • Brayan Rocchio SS | CLE

    Guardians' Brayan Rocchio: Launches third homer

    Rocchio went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Monday's 3-1 win over the Diamondbacks.

    Rocchio is up to three homers on the year, with two of them coming over his last three games. The infielder has put together a strong August, going 17-for-54 (.315) across 16 games this month while occupying a starting role, primarily at second base. He's up to a .237/.289/.348 slash line with 31 RBI, 20 runs scored and six stolen bases through 77 contests this season, though he is trending upward.
