Dustin May SP | MIL
Dodgers' Dustin May: Sloppy work in no-decision
May allowed six runs (five earned) on six hits and four walks while striking out one over five innings in a no-decision versus the Padres on Monday.
May gave up all six runs within the first three innings. He ended the outing with 89 pitches (48 strikes) but exited with the game tied, sparing him the loss despite not having his best stuff. The four walks were a season high, while the one strikeout matched his season low. May's poor outing put him at a 4.46 ERA, 1.31 WHIP and 64:26 K:BB across 66.2 innings over 12 starts this season. He's projected to make his next start at home versus the Giants this weekend.

Alec Bohm 3B | PHI
Phillies' Alec Bohm: Pair of knocks in win
Bohm went 2-for-5 in Monday's 4-3 extra-innings win over the Cubs.
Although Bohm saw his 10-game hitting streak come to an end on May 30, he's maintained healthy production in the past few weeks. Over his last 20 outings, the 28-year-old infielder is hitting. 305 (25-for-82) with three homers, three doubles, eight RBI and nine runs scored. Bohm has hit either third or fourth in Philadelphia's batting order nine times in his last 12 contests, and he should continue to bat in those positions while Bryce Harper (wrist) is on the injured list.

Diamondbacks' Justin Martinez: Exits with trainer
Martinez left Monday's game against the Mariners with an undisclosed injury, Jack Sommers of SI.com reports.
Martinez was one out away from recording his sixth save of the season, but he made a motion for the trainer after throwing a 97 mile-per-hour sinker to Donovan Solano. Martinez is presumably headed for further evaluation to determine the severity of his injury.

Matt Strahm RP | KC
Phillies' Matt Strahm: Takes fourth blown save Monday
Strahm blew the save in Monday's 4-3 extra-innings win over the Cubs after giving up a solo home run and a walk with no strikeouts in the eighth inning.
Strahm was charged with his fourth blown save of the season, and he's now gone a poor 2-for-6 on save opportunities this year. The veteran left-hander has begun to struggle as a setup man in Philadelphia's bullpen, logging a 5.06 ERA and 1.38 WHIP over his last 16 innings. Jordan Romano has been shaky as the Phillies' closer -- he owns a 7.40 ERA and 1.64 WHIP in 2025 -- but Strahm's recent performance hasn't helped his case as a potential ninth-inning option.

Adam Frazier 2B | LAA
Pirates' Adam Frazier: Continues torrid stretch in rout
Frazier went 3-for-5 with an RBI and a run scored in Monday's 10-3 win over the Marlins.
Frazier recorded his fourth three-hit game of the season, with each coming in his last 12 games. During this span, the veteran utility man is batting a torrid .395 (17-for-43) with one home run, four doubles, five RBI and six runs scored. Frazier regularly sits against southpaws and continues to see limited playing time since Nick Gonzales returned -- Frazier has taken just 19 at-bats versus lefties in 2025 and has started just four of Pittsburgh's past eight contests.

Bryan Reynolds LF | PIT
Pirates' Bryan Reynolds: Stays hot in blowout win
Reynolds went 2-for-5 with a three-run triple in Monday's 10-3 win over the Marlins.
It was the second triple of the year from Reynolds, who's beginning to find a groove at the plate after struggling at the plate most of the season. Across his last 21 outings, the 30-year-old outfielder is hitting .338 (26-for-77) with three homers, four doubles, 19 RBI and six runs scored. Reynolds has seven multi-hit games and six multi-RBI efforts during this stretch.

Emilio Pagan RP | CIN
Reds' Emilio Pagan: Secures 16th save Monday
Pagan secured the save in Monday's 7-4 win over the Guardians after allowing one walk in a scoreless ninth inning. He struck out two.
It was the 16th save of the year for Pagan, who also successfully converted his eighth consecutive save opportunity. The 34-year-old right-hander has been shaky at times when it comes to run prevention this year -- he has a 3.45 ERA on the season -- but he's more or less given the Reds stability as their closer. Pagan has gone 16-for-18 in save situations, also posting a 0.84 WHIP and 35:8 K:BB over 28.2 innings.

Ryan Pressly RP | CHC
Cubs' Ryan Pressly: Performance trending upward
Pressly, who tossed a scoreless inning of relief with two strikeouts in Monday's 4-3, extra-innings loss to the Phillies, has now gone 12 straight appearances without allowing an earned run.
Pressly was hammered for eight earned runs without recording an out back on May 6, but since then, he's allowed just a single unearned run across 11 innings to go along with 10 strikeouts. The veteran righty has lowered his ERA from 7.62 to 4.13 in the process. Daniel Palencia, who took the loss Monday but still has a sparkling 1.96 ERA, has emerged as the team's top closing option, though Pressly could push his way back into the picture if he continues to pitch well. At the very least, he's seemingly done enough to at least earn some trust in high-leverage spots, potentially as a setup man for now.

Ian Happ LF | CHC
Cubs' Ian Happ: Hits fifth home run Monday
Happ went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Monday's 4-3, extra-innings loss to the Phillies.
Happ hit a game-tying home run in the eighth inning, his fifth of the year and second in his last five games, but the Cubs would fall 4-3 in 11 innings. The veteran outfielder now has a .706 OPS for the season, and judging by his .789 career mark, he could be poised for a strong finish to 2025. Across his eight previous MLB campaigns, Happ's post-All Star break OPS is 21 points higher than his pre-break OPS.

Zack Wheeler SP | PHI
Phillies' Zack Wheeler: Returns to form with seven Ks
Wheeler didn't factor into the decision Monday against the Cubs after giving up one run on three hits and one walk in six innings. He struck out seven.
After allowing a season-high six runs in his last start, Wheeler returned to form with a whopping 17 whiffs against a tough Cubs lineup. Monday represented his eighth quality start in his last nine outings and his 10th such effort this year, and the All-Star right-hander has now fanned at least seven on 10 occasions in 2025. Wheeler boasts a 2.85 ERA, 0.90 WHIP and 101:19 K:BB over 82 innings, and he's currently lined up to face the Blue Jays at home this weekend.
