  • Xavier Edwards 2B | MIA

    Marlins' Xavier Edwards: Drives in two runs Tuesday

    Edwards went 2-for-3 with two RBI and a run scored during the Marlins' 10-6 win over the Diamondbacks on Tuesday.

    Edwards got the Marlins on a board with an RBI single in the first inning before adding another run in the third on a sacrifice fly. It was his third multi-RBI game of the season and the first RBI he's logged since May 29 against the Mets. Edwards is slashing .306/.391/.456 with 11 steals, six home runs and 22 RBI over 285 plate appearances this season.

  • Michael Busch 1B | CHC

    Cubs' Michael Busch: Homers in loss

    Busch went 1-for-3 with a walk and a solo home run in Tuesday's 7-3 loss to the Rockies.

    Busch enjoyed the thin air at Coors Field as he lifted his seventh home run of the season in the sixth inning. The Chicago first baseman has been good lately with a .342 batting average, the one long ball and six RBI across his last 10 games. Overall, Busch is now sporting a .773 OPS and has 37 RBI across 66 contests this year, which is a step back from his 2025 production level but still plenty useful.

  • Austin Warren RP | NYM

    Mets' Austin Warren: Opening Wednesday

    Warren will serve as the Mets' opening pitcher in Wednesday's game against the Cardinals, Chelsea Janes of SNY.tv reports.

    Warren has turned in an impressive 2.01 ERA and 1.12 WHIP through 22.1 innings with the Mets this season, and the team will now entrust him with getting through the top of St. Louis' order in Wednesday's contest. The team hasn't yet announced which pitcher, if any, will work in bulk relief once Warren exits the game.

  • Braves' Ronald Acuna: Deemed day-to-day

    Manager Walt Weiss said after Tuesday's game against the White Sox that Acuna is day-to-day with left hamstring tightness, Barrett Sallee of 680 The Fan Atlanta reports.

    Acuna went on the injured list in early May due to a left hamstring strain, though Weiss noted that his latest injury doesn't seem to be as severe. The outfielder will undergo an MRI on Wednesday just in case. Eli White entered Tuesday's contest as Acuna's replacement and could be in line for additional starts if Acuna needs to miss another game or two.

  • Otto Lopez SS | MIA

    Marlins' Otto Lopez: Logs four runs in Tuesday's win

    Lopez went 3-for-5 with two doubles, one steal, one RBI and four runs scored during the Marlins' 10-6 win over the Diamondbacks on Tuesday.

    Lopez set a season high in runs scored Tuesday while logging two doubles for the second time in 2026. He also logged his 11th steal of the season, tied with Xavier Edwards for second most on the Marlins behind Jakob Marsee (16). Lopez is having a terrific season at the plate, leading the National League in both batting average (.341) and hits (89) while ranking fourth in both triples (three) and doubles (11).

  • Max Meyer SP | MIA

    Marlins' Max Meyer: No-decision vs. Arizona

    Meyer did not factor into the decision Tuesday against the Diamondbacks, allowing two runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out five across 5.1 innings.

    Both of the runs Meyer allowed came on solo home runs from Corbin Carroll and Gabriel Moreno, marking the second time this season that Meyer has given up two homers in a game. He's yielded two earned runs or fewer in 10 of 14 starts and ranks fourth in the National League in strikeouts (86) and in the top 12 in both ERA (2.85) and WHIP (1.09) across 79 innings. Meyer's next start is slated for this weekend on the road against the Pirates.

  • Bryson Stott 2B | PHI

    Phillies' Bryson Stott: Smacks RBI double Tuesday

    Stott went 2-for-4 with an RBI double during the Phillies' 3-2 loss to the Blue Jays on Tuesday.

    Stott gave the Phillies a 2-1 lead in the ninth inning when his double off Louis Varland brought Bryce Harper home, but Philadelphia was unable to close out the win. Stott has gone 8-for-29 (.276) with one steal, five RBI and four extra-base hits over his last nine games.

  • Zack Wheeler SP | PHI

    Phillies' Zack Wheeler: Quality start in Toronto

    Wheeler did not factor into the decision Tuesday against the Blue Jays, allowing one run on six hits while striking out five across six innings. He did not issue a walk.

    Wheeler was locked in a pitchers' duel with Dylan Cease, with the former clinging onto a 1-0 lead through five innings before yielding a solo homer to Jesus Sanchez in the sixth. Wheeler generated 15 whiffs on 96 pitches and is up to seven quality starts in nine outings this season. He will bring a 2.22 ERA and 0.85 WHIP over 56.2 innings into his next start, which is lined up for next week at home against the Marlins.

  • Jhoan Duran RP | PHI

    Phillies' Jhoan Duran: Blows first save of 2026

    Duran (1-3) blew the save and took the loss in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to Toronto, allowing two runs on three hits while failing to record an out.

    Duran was brought out to close things out after the Phillies took a 2-1 lead in the top of the ninth. The right-hander had converted each of his first 16 save chances of the season, but he did not have that same success in Toronto. The game was tied at 2-2 on a wild pitch that brought Myles Straw home before Duran yielded a walk-off single to Brandon Valenzuela. This marks the first time this season that Duran has given up multiple earned runs, and he now sits at a 2.08 ERA, 0.97 WHIP and 33:5 K:BB across 21.2 innings.

  • Braves' Ronald Acuna: Exits early with injury

    Acuna exited Tuesday's contest against the White Sox in the fourth inning due to left hamstring tightness.

    Acuna was busting it down the line in an attempt to secure an infield single in the top of the fourth inning, but he pulled up lame as he approached first base. The outfielder appeared to have tweaked his left leg in the process, and he was subsequently removed from the game. More information on Acuna's status will likely be provided in the near future, but in the meantime, Eli White has taken over in right field versus Chicago.
