    Giants' Heliot Ramos: Scores in rehab outing

    Ramos (quadriceps) went 1-for-5 with a walk and a run scored in Triple-A Sacramento's 9-6 win over Oklahoma City on Wednesday.

    Ramos began his rehab assignment with Sacramento after landing on the 10-day injured list May 16 with a right quadriceps strain. The 26-year-old outfielder singled in the fifth before coming around to score, and he also drew a walk in the sixth. Before he was sent to the IL, Ramos slashed .267/.307/.424 with 20 RBI, 19 runs scored, four home runs and a 26.7 percent strikeout rate across 176 plate appearances.

  • Dodgers' Edgardo Henriquez: Getting more work in high leverage

    Henriquez earned a hold against the Rays on Wednesday, allowing one hit in 1.1 scoreless innings of work.

    Henriquez was summoned in the seventh inning, right after the Dodgers took a one-run lead. The right-hander allowed an infield single to open the frame, but that was quickly wiped out on a double play. After getting through the seventh, Henriquez remained in the game for one batter in the eighth and got Junior Caminero to ground out before departing. Henriquez picked up his fifth hold, all of which have come over his past 12 appearances. He's pitched to a 2.13 ERA, 0.79 WHIP and 15:2 K:BB over 12.2 innings during that span.

  • Tommy Edman 3B | LAD

    Dodgers' Tommy Edman: Hitless in return

    Edman went 0-for-3 with a walk in Wednesday's 5-4 win against Tampa Bay.

    Edman made his season debut following a long absence while recovering from last November's ankle surgery. He was unable to get a hit in first game back, though the super-utility man did draw a fourth-inning walk. Edman batted leadoff and played third base Wednesday, but neither of those situations are likely to stick. Shohei Ohtani got the day off as a hitter and is likely to return to the top of the batting order for Los Angeles' next game, and Max Muncy -- who pinch hit for Edman in the seventh frame Wednesday -- is the Dodgers' primary third baseman. Edman should still see ample playing time, with much of it coming at second base and in the outfield.

  • Mets' Jonathan Pintaro: Sent back to Triple-A

    The Mets optioned Pintaro to Triple-A Syracuse on Tuesday.

    Pintaro's stay with the big club lasted just one day, with the right-hander striking out four batters and giving up two earned runs on three hits over 3.2 innings of relief in Monday's 12-0 loss to the Reds. He gave up his spot on the Mets' active roster to right-hander Kodai Senga (spine), who was reinstated from the 15-day injured list ahead of his start Tuesday.

  • Brewers' Garrett Mitchell: Taking seat versus lefty

    Mitchell is not in the lineup for Thursday's tilt versus the Guardians.

    The left-handed-hitting Mitchell has been swinging a hot bat, which has earned him more chances against lefty hurlers lately. However, he'll take a seat Thursday as the Guardians send southpaw Parker Messick to the bump. Blake Perkins will patrol center field for the Brewers.

  • Brewers' William Contreras: Getting breather Thursday

    Contreras is not in the lineup for Thursday's contest versus the Guardians.

    It's a rare day off for Contreras, but he will get some rest for Thursday's afternoon game after starting the previous five tilts. Gary Sanchez will do the catching and bat sixth as the Brewers go for the series sweep.

  • Quinn Priester SP | MIL

    Brewers' Quinn Priester: Set for season-ending surgery

    Priester will undergo thoracic outlet compression surgery on Monday and is expected to be sidelined 8-to-10 months, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

    Priester has dealt with thoracic outlet symptoms since last season, and he attempted unsuccessfully to treat it with rest and rehab. After consulting with Dr. Gregory Pearl on Tuesday, the decision was made to have surgery. Priester expects to be ready to go for the beginning of next season, but the track record of pitchers coming back from this type of procedure isn't great.

  • Mets' Francisco Alvarez: Three hits in Wednesday's rout

    Alvarez went 3-for-5 with a run scored and an RBI in Wednesday's win over the Reds.

    Getting the start at DH and batting sixth, Alvarez delivered his first three-hit performance of 2026. The 24-year-old backstop has hit safely in six of seven games since returning in early June from knee surgery, batting .320 (8-for-25) in that span with a homer, two runs and three RBI.

  • Grant Holman RP | PHI

    Phillies' Grant Holman: Shelved at Triple-A

    Triple-A Lehigh Valley placed Holman on its 7-day injured list May 30 due to an unspecified injury.

    After claiming Holman off waivers from the Tigers on May 7, the Phillies optioned him to Triple-A. Before landing on the shelf, he made five relief appearances for Lehigh Valley and turned in a 7.11 ERA, 1.97 WHIP and 12:3 K:BB in 6.1 innings.

  • Esteury Ruiz RF | MIA

    Marlins' Esteury Ruiz: Making case for more playing time

    Ruiz went 3-for-5 with two doubles and two runs scored in Wednesday's win over the Phillies.

    Getting the start in left field and batting ninth even with right-hander Andrew Painter on the mound for Philly, Ruiz put together his first three-hit performance of the season. Over his last 12 games, the 27-year-old is batting an eye-popping .435 (10-for-23) with four doubles, two homers, four steals, four RBI and six runs as he pushes for more than a part-time role in the Marlins' outfield. With Kyle Stowers needed at first base and Owen Caissie still struggling to make anything close to consistent contact, there could be a path for Ruiz to claim a starting job.
