Robbie Ray SP | SF
Giants' Robbie Ray: Starting resumed suspended game
Ray will be the Giants' first pitcher in the resumption of Tuesday's suspended game Wednesday in Atlanta, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.
Ray had been slated to start Wednesday's regularly scheduled contest, but he will instead take the ball in the bottom of the second inning as the two teams resume Tuesday's game that was suspended by inclement weather. The Giants are clinging to a 3-2 lead in the contest, so Ray will have a better chance to pick up a victory. San Francisco will go with a bullpen game in the nightcap.

Cardinals' Riley O'Brien: Records 18th save
O'Brien earned the save Tuesday against the Padres after tossing a scoreless ninth inning while allowing a walk.
O'Brien has converted his last five save opportunities and has gone 18-for-22 so far in 2026. One of the most reliable ninth-inning relievers in the National League this season, O'Brien owns a 3.73 ERA and 1.21 WHIP across 31 appearances (31.1 innings) in 2026.

Alec Bohm 3B | PHI
Phillies' Alec Bohm: June turnaround continues
Bohm went 2-for-4 with a home run, two runs scored and three RBI in Tuesday's 8-2 win over the Marlins.
The third baseman took Tyler Phillips deep for a two-run shot in the second inning, one of three Phillies long balls off the right-hander. Bohm held a meager .606 OPS at the end of May, but through 14 games in June he's found a groove, slashing .275/.296/.490 with two doubles, three homers, one steal, five runs and 14 RBI for the month.

Jesus Luzardo SP | PHI
Phillies' Jesus Luzardo: Fans nine in Tuesday's win
Luzardo (6-4) picked up the win in Tuesday's 8-2 victory over the Marlins, allowing two runs on five hits and two walks over seven innings. He struck out nine.
The southpaw blanked the team that traded him to the Phillies ahead of the 2025 campaign for six innings before Esteury Ruiz touched him up for a two-run homer in the seventh. Luzardo has won three straight decisions, posting a 3.00 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 31:12 K:BB through 30 innings over five starts since his last defeat, and Tuesday's quality start was his seventh of the season. Luzardo will look to keep rolling in his next outing, which is set to come on the road early next week against the Nationals, the team that originally drafted him in 2016.

Tyler Phillips RP | MIA
Marlins' Tyler Phillips: Flops in Philly
Phillips (1-2) took the loss Tuesday, surrendering eight runs on six hits -- including three home runs -- and three walks over four innings as the Marlins fell 8-2 to the Phillies. He struck out four.
The Phillies put up three runs off the right-hander in the first inning without leaving the yard, but even that small grace note on the outing was quickly spoiled as Brandon Marsh, Alec Bohm and Kyle Schwarber all launched homers before Phillips got the hook after 79 pitches (48 strikes). The eight earned runs allowed were more than Phillips had given up in his prior 11 appearances and 31.1 innings combined, spiking his ERA on the season from 1.86 to 3.10, while the three long balls were more than he'd served up all year. He'll try to shake off this disaster in his next start, which lines up to come at home this weekend against the Giants.

Trevor Megill RP | MIL
Brewers' Trevor Megill: Earns save Tuesday
Megill earned the save in Tuesday's win over the Guardians after pitching a perfect ninth inning, striking out two.
Megill needed just 12 pitches (eight strikes) to earn his ninth save of the season in 11 chances. He's bounced back nicely after blowing a save against the Rockies at Coors Field on June 5, when he allowed two runs on three hits and a walk over an inning of work. Since then, he's posted three straight scoreless outings around a brief absence due to side tightness. Once again the top endgame option in Milwaukee, Megill has allowed just two runs in his last 11 appearances -- a stretch in which he owns a 1.64 ERA, 0.82 WHIP and 13.9 K/9.

Rockies' Jordan Beck: Progressing in recovery
Beck (hamstring) stretched and did running drills prior to Tuesday's game against the Cubs, MLB.com reports.
Beck has yet to resume fielding drills -- one of the the final steps in his recovery prior to beginning a rehab assignment. There is no specific timeline for his return, though it appears he could realistically be activated by late June or early July.
