  • Sean Hjelle RP | SF

    Giants' Sean Hjelle: Struggles Wednesday

    Hjelle allowed three earned runs on four hits while striking out one over one inning in Wednesday's 9-3 victory over Atlanta.

    Hjelle gave up three singles and a ground-rule double in his second appearance since being recalled from Triple-A Sacramento. The 28-year-old threw 15 of his 20 pitches for strikes before escaping the inning. The right-hander has struggled in the majors this season, posting a 7.71 ERA, 1.93 WHIP and an 11:8 K:BB while surrendering two home runs across 14 innings in 11 appearances (one start).

  • Nick Anderson RP | ATH

    Rockies' Nick Anderson: Set for promotion to big leagues

    The Rockies are expected to call up Anderson from Triple-A Albuquerque, Chase Ford of MiLBCentral reports.

    Anderson has spent all of the 2025 season at the Triple-A level between the Cardinals and Rockies organizations, collecting a 5.79 ERA and 35:15 K:BB over 32.2 innings. The veteran right-hander is likely to operate in a middle-relief role.

  • Joey Lucchesi RP | LAA

    Giants' Joey Lucchesi: Tosses scoreless inning Wednesday

    Lucchesi threw a scoreless inning in Wednesday's 9-3 win over Atlanta, allowing no hits while striking out one.

    Lucchesi threw eight of his 10 pitches for strikes, recording his 10th consecutive scoreless outing. During that span, the left-hander has allowed six hits and two walks while striking out 16 over 12 innings. Since joining the major-league roster from Triple-A Sacramento on June 15, the 32-year-old has posted a 1.93 ERA, 0.93 WHIP and a 17:2 K:BB across 14 innings in 13 appearances.

  • Brandon Nimmo RF | TEX

    Mets' Brandon Nimmo: Belts 19th homer

    Nimmo went 2-for-3 with a solo home run and a second run scored in Wednesday's win over the Angels.

    The veteran outfielder led off the bottom of the first inning by driving a Brock Burke slider over the fence in right-center field. Nimmo is one long ball away from recording his third straight 20-homer campaign, and he's enjoying a strong July, slashing .303/.390/.530 over 18 games with four home runs, four steals, 14 runs and 14 RBI.

  • Mets' Francisco Lindor: Breaks out of slump

    Lindor went 2-for-4 with a run scored and two RBI in Wednesday's win over the Angels.

    The shortstop had gone 0-for-28 over the prior six games, but Lindor's bat snapped to life with RBI singles in the third and fourth innings. The slump has left Lindor with a .200/.259/.360 slash line over 18 contests in July, but he's remained productive with three homers, three steals, 14 runs and 14 RBI in that same span.

  • Brewers' Jeferson Quero: Dealing with arm injury

    Quero was removed Wednesday from Triple-A Nashville's 14-13 win over Charlotte after four innings due to an apparent left arm injury, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

    The catching prospect appeared to suffer the injury to his non-throwing arm while attempting to tag out a baserunner earlier in the contest. The Brewers haven't provided an update on Quero's injury, but more information on his status could be available when he gets examined Thursday. After missing nearly all of the 2024 season while recovering from surgery to address a torn labrum in his right shoulder, Quero has slashed .259/.333/.362 with two home runs and two stolen bases over 129 plate appearances with Nashville in 2025.

  • Rockies' Hunter Goodman: On base three times

    Goodman went 2-for-3 with a walk Wednesday against the Cardinals.

    Goodman went 7-for-21 while getting on base at a .364 clip across five games during the Rockies' homestand, tallying four RBI and two runs scored. He also struck out eight times, a larger trend across July for Goodman, as he has a 31.6 percent strikeout rate across 57 plate appearances during the month.

  • Jordan Beck RF | COL

    Rockies' Jordan Beck: Wraps up strong homestand

    Beck went 2-for-4 with a double and an RBI on Wednesday against the Cardinals.

    Beck had a strong six-game homestand coming out of the All-Star break, racking up three multi-hit performances across six games. He also chipped in three extra-base hits (one home run), four runs scored and three RBI. Across 17 games in July, Beck has maintained a .328 average with six RBI, six runs scored and two stolen bases.

  • Ezequiel Tovar SS | COL

    Rockies' Ezequiel Tovar: Tallies fifth homer

    Tovar went 1-for-4 with a solo home run Wednesday against the Cardinals.

    Tovar led off the eighth inning with a solo home run, his fifth long ball of the season. It's a small sample since he returned from the injured list July 18, but Tovar has at least one hit in four of five games to go along with two homers, four RBI and four runs scored.

  • Jesus Luzardo SP | PHI

    Phillies' Jesus Luzardo: Implodes in fifth inning

    Luzardo didn't factor into the decision Wednesday against the Red Sox, allowing six runs on two hits and five walks in five innings. He struck out seven.

    Luzardo's up-and-down season continued, as he surrendered at least five runs for the fourth time in his last 10 starts. He melted down during a calamitous fifth inning, when Boston drove in six runs on two hits and four walks in the frame. While the hard-throwing left-hander has fanned at least seven on six occasions across his last 10 outings, he's witnessed his ERA balloon from 2.15 on May 25 to 4.58 for the year following Wednesday's clunker. Luzardo has a 8.04 ERA, 1.79 WHIP and 59:24 K:BB over his last 47 innings, and things may not get much easier his next time out against a White Sox team with a .827 OPS versus left-handed pitching since the start of July.
