Eovaldi (6-7) earned the win Sunday, allowing three runs on six hits and a walk over seven innings against Boston. He struck out six.

Aside from surrendering a pair of homers to Willson Contreras, Eovaldi was effective and gave Texas great length en route to picking up his sixth win. The veteran has consistently worked deep into games this season, completing at least seven innings in seven of his 14 starts. The right-hander owns a 4.23 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 83:21 K:BB across 87.1 innings and will look to stay in the win column his next time out, tentatively scheduled for Saturday against San Diego.

Walton went 1-for-3 with a solo home run before being pinch hit for in the eighth inning of Sunday's loss to Tampa Bay.

Walton drew the start at designated hitter and came through with his first homer of the season in a lefty-lefty matchup against Ian Seymour in the fifth inning. The infielder has received sporadic playing time, but he has generally been productive when called upon in a small sample size. Walton is hitting .296 with a .759 OPS, five extra-base hits, four RBI and nine runs scored across 58 plate appearances in 2026.

Mullins went 2-for-3 with a run scored, two steals, a walk and a hit-by-pitch in Sunday's 8-3 win over the Angels.

Mullins reached base four times and was active on the basepaths, recording his first stolen base since May 16 and logging his first multi-steal effort since April 4. The veteran outfielder has looked much improved at the plate in June, slashing .281/.425/.563 with three homers, five RBI and six runs scored through 11 appearances. Overall, Mullins has produced a pedestrian .201/.290/.319 slash line with six homers, 21 RBI, 24 runs scored and 12 stolen bases across 61 games.

Caminero went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run in Sunday's win over the Angels.

Caminero's lone hit was a significant one, as he launched a two-run homer to left field to give the Rays the lead in the eighth inning. So far in June, the third baseman is hitting .239/.340/.435 with two homers, three doubles, four RBI and eight runs scored in 12 appearances. Overall, the 22-year-old is slashing .271/.370/.488 with 15 homers, 11 doubles, 32 RBI and 42 runs scored across 68 games this season.

Mesa went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run, an additional run scored and a walk in Sunday's 8-3 win over the Angels.

Mesa extended the Rays' lead to 8-3 with a 107.1 mph, two-run shot as part of a five-run eighth inning. Sunday marked the outfielder's first multi-hit effort of the season and his first homer since his season debut May 25. With most of his action coming against right-handed pitching, the 24-year-old is slashing .200/.319/.350 with two homers, five RBI and six runs scored across 48 plate appearances.

Seymour allowed two runs on two hits and three walks while striking out three over 3.1 innings of bulk relief in Sunday's 8-3 win over the Angels.

Entering after 1.2 innings from Casey Legumina, Seymour totaled 72 pitches (41 strikes) and allowed both of his runs in the fifth inning, his final frame, including a solo homer by Donovan Walton. Sunday marked Seymour's second extended outing after he started and covered four innings Monday, having previously logged no more than two innings in any appearance this season. Overall, the southpaw owns a 4.93 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 41:19 K:BB across 38.1 innings (28 appearances), and if he remains in the rotation, his next outing is lined up for Saturday against the Nationals.

Schmitt went 2-for-3 with a double, a run scored, a steal and a hit-by-pitch in Sunday's 5-1 victory over the Cubs.

Schmitt didn't drive in a run but still made an impact offensively, reaching base three times and coming around to score in the eighth inning after swiping second base. Sunday marked the 27-year-old's 21st multi-hit effort of the campaign after recording 15 such games across 95 contests in 2025. Through 64 games in 2026, Schmitt is slashing .276/.308/.510 with 15 homers, 38 RBI, 32 runs and six stolen bases.

Chapman went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run, an additional run scored and two walks in Sunday's win over the Cubs.

Following an RBI double from Drew Gilbert to open the scoring, Chapman crushed a sinker over the center-field wall to extend the Giants' lead in the fifth inning. The third baseman has been on fire in June, slashing .415/.519/.902 with six homers, 20 RBI and 17 runs scored through 13 games. Overall, he's hitting .261/.348/.414 with seven homers, 39 RBI and 35 runs scored across 71 contests in 2026.

Webb (4-4) earned the win Sunday, allowing an unearned run on seven hits and no walks over eight innings against the Cubs. He struck out seven.

Webb's strong run continued Sunday, as the right-hander kept the Cubs off the board through the first seven frames before a Casey Schmitt throwing error in the eighth inning paved the way for Chicago's lone run scored. Webb has been nothing short of magnificent through three outings in June, posting a 0.39 ERA, 0.61 WHIP and 18:1 K:BB across 23 innings. He'll carry a 3.46 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 65:19 K:BB across 75.1 innings (12 starts) into his next outing, tentatively scheduled for Saturday against the Marlins.

The Cubs acquired Zulueta from the Mariners on Monday in exchange for cash considerations.

Seattle designated Zulueta for assignment Wednesday, but he'll regain a spot on the 40-man roster with his move to a new organization. The right-hander has posted an inflated 5.75 ERA over 20.1 innings in 22 appearances with Triple-A Tacoma so far this season, but he boasts impressive velocity and has struck out 21.4 percent of the batters he's faced. The Cubs are expected to assign him to Triple-A Iowa.
