  • Yankees' Jazz Chisholm: Productive in win

    Chisholm went 3-for-4 with an RBI single and a stolen base during Thursday's 4-0 win over the Guardians.

    The performance marked Chisholm's second three-hit game in 33 appearances this season and his second multi-hit outing since being activated from the injured list Tuesday. He's up to seven stolen bases this year. In 136 plate appearances, Chisholm is slashing .207/.316/.440 with eight homers, 19 RBI and 19 runs scored.

  • Angels' Sam Aldegheri: Back to minors

    Aldegheri was optioned to Double-A Rocket City on Thursday.

    Aldegheri was promoted to the majors Monday and made his 2025 debut Wednesday. He allowed two unearned runs across 2.1 frames but will quickly head back to the minors.

  • Zach McKinstry RF | DET

    Tigers' Zach McKinstry: Swipes bag in loss

    McKinstry went 2-for-4 with a run scored in Thursday's 3-2, extra-inning loss to the White Sox. He also stole a base.

    McKinstry continues to produce for the Tigers with hits in four of his last five games and a .271 average for the season. The utility man is also up to four stolen bases, and after recording 16 steals each of the last two years, he could start running more moving forward. McKinstry isn't the most exciting player, but his versatility and steady production is getting him into the lineup most days.

  • Orioles' Gunnar Henderson: Smacks eighth homer in win

    Henderson went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Mariners.

    Henderson smacked his eighth homer of the season, and he's really begun to settle in following a delayed start to the year due to an intercostal strain. Over his last 30 games, the star shortstop is batting a .279 (34-for-122) with five long balls, five doubles, 11 RBI, and 18 runs scored. Henderson entered Thursday with a top-notch 55.3 percent hard-hit rate, so perhaps he even has some room for improvement in the power department.

  • Jacob Wilson SS | ATH

    Athletics' Jacob Wilson: Keeps raking

    Wilson went 3-for-5 with a home run and three total runs scored in Thursday's 14-3 rout over Minnesota.

    Wilson has been one of the best hitters in baseball since mid-May -- the rookie shortstop has gone 28-for-63 (.445) with three homers in his last 16 games. The 23-year-old Wilson is batting .363, tied with Freddie Freeman for the second-best mark in the majors, with a .925 OPS, eight homers, 34 RBI and 34 runs scored through 255 plate appearances this season.

  • Mitch Spence RP | KC

    Athletics' Mitch Spence: Sharp in first start

    Spence (2-1) earned the win Thursday over the Twins, allowing one run on three hits and a walk over five innings. He struck out four.

    It was an impressive outing for Spence in his first start of the year after opening the year as a reliever. The right-hander needed just 57 pitches to make it through five innings, with the lone blemish coming on a Matt Wallner homer in the fourth. Spence, who came into the day with a 4.38 ERA across 39 innings out of the bullpen, likely earned himself another look in the A's rotation. His next start would likely come next week on the road against the Angels.

  • Cal Raleigh C | SEA

    Mariners' Cal Raleigh: Up to 24 homers

    Raleigh went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer and three total RBI in Thursday's 4-3 loss to the Orioles.

    Raleigh got the Mariners on the board in the third inning, tying the game 1-1 with an RBI single, before smacking his league-leading 24th homer off Zach Eflin in the fifth. It's been an incredible year thus far for the 28-year-old Raleigh -- he has at least one hit in 13 of his last 15 contests, going 20-for-58 (.345) with nine home runs in that span. Overall, Raleigh is batting .268 with a 1.015 OPS, 49 RBI and 41 runs scored through his first 265 plate appearances this season.

  • Orioles' Adley Rutschman: Homers again Thursday

    Rutschman went 3-for-4 with a two-run homer in Thursday's 4-3 win over Seattle.

    Rutschman tucked a Bryan Woo slider just inside the right-field foul pole in the sixth inning, tying the game 3-3. Rutschman looks to finally be turning things around at the plate after an extended slump to start the year -- he's now 7-for-13 with a pair of homers in his last three contests. The 27-year-old backstop is slashing .225/.314/.375 with seven homers, 26 runs scored and 18 RBI through 226 plate appearances this season.

  • Kyle Teel C | CHW

    White Sox's Kyle Teel: Joining ChiSox

    The White Sox are expected to select Teel's contract from Triple-A Charlotte on Friday, Ari Alexander of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    After slashing .295/.394/.492 with eight homers, 30 RBI, 34 runs scored and seven steals through 50 games with Charlotte, Teel will now report to Chicago for his first career stint in the majors. The 23-year-old has only ever played catcher during his professional career; however, the team has been getting him fielding practice at first base over the past several days. With fellow prospect Edgar Quero already starting behind the plate most days for the White Sox and batting .256 on the year, learning a new position would certainly help Teel's chances of cracking the lineup regularly. That being said, it will likely take a while for him to feel comfortable enough at first base to begin playing there in major-league games.

  • David Festa P | MIN

    Twins' David Festa: Tagged for eight runs in loss

    Festa (0-1) took the loss Thursday against the A's, allowing eight runs on six hits and two walks over 3.2 innings. He struck out six.

    It was a rough day for Festa, who was recalled from Triple-A ahead of the game to make his first start with the Twins since April 23. The right-hander gave up four runs in the opening inning, with three coming on a Max Muncy homer, before Festa gave up three more runs on a pair of long balls in the third. The 25-year-old Festa sports a 5.40 ERA through four major-league starts (16.2 innings) this season with a 1.50 WHIP and 21:7 K:BB. Despite his struggles Thursday, Festa could get another look in Minnesota's rotation with Pablo Lopez (shoulder) facing an extended absence.
