Christian Yelich DH | MIL
Brewers' Christian Yelich: Productive in easy win
Yelich went 3-for-5 with two RBI, three runs scored and a walk in Monday's 16-2 win over the Giants.
Yelich was notably one of seven Brewers to tally multiple hits Monday and one of six Milwaukee batters to register multiple RBI. The three-hit performance was the veteran slugger's fourth of the campaign as well. Through 109 at-bats, Yelich is hitting .275 with 10 extra-base hits, 18 RBI, 21 runs scored and three stolen bases.

Michael McGreevy SP | STL
Cardinals' Michael McGreevy: Hurls quality start but takes loss
McGreevy (3-5) allowed two runs on five hits and two walks while striking out one batter over six innings in a loss to Texas on Monday.
McGreevy began by tossing three scoreless innings before the Rangers scored one run in each of the fourth and fifth frames. Those were enough to hold up, as the Cardinals' offense managed just one run of support. As usual, McGreevy didn't miss many bats -- he had just six whiffs and one punchout -- but he nonetheless managed his seventh quality start of the campaign. Despite a paltry 6.0 K/9 and 3-5 record, the right-hander is having a solid season, posting a 2.98 ERA and 1.10 WHIP through 66.1 innings spanning 12 starts.

Brice Turang 2B | MIL
Brewers' Brice Turang: Busy in lopsided win
Turang went 2-for-2 with two RBI, two walks, two runs scored, a double and a triple in Monday's 16-2 win over the Giants.
Turang recorded his second triple of the season and the 11th of his career. It was a breakout performance of sorts for the second baseman, who entered Monday in an 0-for-19 cold snap over his last six games. Through 244 trips to the plate in 2026, Turang is slashing an excellent .270/.401/.459 with seven home runs, 33 RBI, 46 runs scored and nine stolen bases.

Landen Roupp SP | SF
Giants' Landen Roupp: Lit up in second inning
Roupp (5-6) took the loss Monday against the Brewers, allowing eight runs on eight hits and five walks in four innings. He struck out four.
The second inning was a disastrous one for Roupp, who was clobbered for seven of his season-worst eight earned runs on the evening. Only half of his 96 pitches landed for strikes Monday, and the 27-year-old right-hander also tied a season high in walks allowed. Roupp will be trying to put Monday's dud in the rear-view mirror his next time out against the Cubs in Chicago, where he'll take a 4.22 ERA, 1.31 WHIP and 72:27 K:BB over 64 innings.

Shane Drohan RP | MIL
Brewers' Shane Drohan: Lasts four innings in no-decision
Drohan took a no-decision Monday against the Giants, allowing two runs on four hits and two walks in four innings. He struck out five.
Making only his second start of the year, Drohan threw a season-high 68 pitches Monday in an abbreviated outing. Additionally, the 27-year-old right-hander matched his season-high output in strikeouts. Drohan has an impressive 2.87 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 33:10 K:BB over 31.1 innings, but his streaming appeal could be limited during a matchup in Colorado against the Rockies for his next outing. Beyond that, the expectation is that Brandon Woodruff (shoulder) will take Drohan's place in Milwaukee's rotation once healthy.

Carmen Mlodzinski RP | PIT
Pirates' Carmen Mlodzinski: Returns from restricted list
The Pirates activated Mlodzinski (personal) from the restricted list Monday, Jason Mackey of MLB.com reports.
Mlodzinski's stay on the restricted list lasted 24 hours after he expressed frustration following his removal from the Pirates rotation following the return of Jared Jones from the injured list this past weekend. While speaking to Mackey on Monday, Mlodzinski said that he's willing to do whatever he can to help the team, and for now, he's expected to fill a key role out of the bullpen. The right-hander had uneven results as a starter and has often been hit hard this season, as he currently sits in the second-percentile of all pitchers with a hard-hit rate of 50.9 percent. The move to relief should enhance Mlodzinski's effectiveness, and the Pirates could even deploy him in high-leverage spots since the back end of the bullpen has been a weak spot for the team this season.

Kodai Senga SP | NYM
Mets' Kodai Senga: Third rehab start coming Wednesday
Senga (spine) is slated to make the third start of his rehab assignment Wednesday with Triple-A Syracuse, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.
Senga will aim to throw around 85 pitches Wednesday after tossing 3.2 innings and 80 pitches in his most recent appearance for Syracuse last Thursday. Senga has recorded a 5.14 ERA, 1.57 WHIP and 7:3 K:BB across seven innings between his first two rehab outings with Single-A St. Lucie and Syracuse, but if he shows improved results Wednesday, the 33-year-old could be cleared to make his next start in the big leagues. Senga has been on the shelf since April 28 due to lumbar spine inflammation.

Weilnton Herrera RP | COL
Rockies' Welinton Herrera: Moved to 60-day IL
The Rockies transferred Herrera (elbow) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Monday.
Herrera landed on the 15-day IL on Saturday due to left elbow inflammation, but his move to the 60-day IL just two days later suggests that his injury is more severe that the Rockies initially anticipated. With Herrera set to remain on the shelf through at least late July, the Rockies were able to open up a spot on the 40-man roster for right-hander TJ Shook, whose contract was selected from Triple-A Albuquerque.

Zach Agnos RP | COL
Rockies' Zach Agnos: Sent down to Triple-A
The Rockies optioned Agnos to Triple-A Albuquerque on Monday.
The move makes room on the 26-man roster for TJ Shook, who had his contract selected by the Rockies. Agnos has struggled on the mound as of late, having given up 14 earned runs over his last two outings spanning three frames. That has ballooned his numbers to a 7.78 ERA and 1.57 WHIP across 37 innings this season. Agnos will work on his command issues in the minors and could return to the big club should the Rockies need more right-handed depth out of the bullpen.

TJ Shook RP | COL
Rockies' TJ Shook: Called up by Colorado
The Rockies selected Shook's contract from Triple-A Albuquerque on Monday.
Shook has spent the entire 2026 season in Triple-A, where he has a 2.86 ERA, 1.10 WHIP, seven saves and a 29:8 K:BB across 28.1 innings. He'll operate out of the Rockies' bullpen, and his first call to the mound will be his major-league debut. In corresponding moves, Zach Agnos was optioned to Albuquerque and Welinton Herrera (elbow) was transferred to the 60-day injured list.
