  • Griffin Conine RF | MIA

    Marlins' Griffin Conine: Plays hero in Monday's win

    Conine went 2-for-5 with a home run and two RBI in Monday's win over the Phillies.

    The second-generation Marlin took Zack Wheeler deep for a solo shot in the second inning before capping a remarkable ninth-inning comeback off Philly closer Jhoan Duran with a walk-off single that brought home Heriberto Hernandez. Conine has been productive since coming off the IL in late June, and over his last 92 plate appearances he's delivered a .287/.380/.563 slash line with six homers, 12 runs and 14 RBI.

  • Jakob Marsee CF | MIA

    Marlins' Jakob Marsee: Productive from bottom of order

    Marsee went 2-for-3 with a walk, a double, two runs scored and an RBI in Monday's win over the Phillies.

    The 25-year-old center fielder has found himself batting ninth in his last two starts, and at least on Monday the move sparked a bit of offense from him. Marsee's had a rough season overall, but he's showing signs of life in July, slashing .255/.387/.333 over 18 games with one homer, one steal, five RBI and nine runs.

  • Jose Franco RP | CIN

    Reds' Jose Franco: Serving as 27th man on roster

    The Reds recalled Franco from Triple-A Louisville on Tuesday, Charlie Goldsmith of Fox 19 Now Cincinnati reports.

    Franco will be available for the second game of Tuesday's doubleheader versus the Guardians as the 27th man on the roster. The right-hander tossed six shutout innings in his last start at Louisville and could serve as the bulk reliever for the Reds in Tuesday's nightcap. Franco has made nine appearances out of the Cincinnati bullpen in 2026, posting a 5.40 ERA and 13:14 K:BB over 16.2 innings.

  • Tyler Rogers RP | TOR

    Blue Jays' Tyler Rogers: Secures 22nd hold

    Rogers struck out one in a perfect seventh inning Monday to record his 22nd hold of the season in a win over the Nationals.

    With Toronto nursing a 3-2 lead, Rogers got the call against Washington's 9-1-2 hitters and got the job done on just eight pitches (all strikes), fanning James Wood along the way. Rogers hasn't allowed a run since June 23, reeling off 10 straight scoreless appearances and posting a 0.50 WHIP and 7:1 K:BB in 10 innings with five holds.

  • Mason Fluharty RP | TOR

    Blue Jays' Mason Fluharty: Nabs fifth win

    Fluharty (5-1) picked up the win Monday over the Nationals, striking out one over 1.1 perfect innings of relief.

    Max Scherzer lasted just 2.2 frames as the starter after being activated from the IL earlier in the day, and Fluharty took the mound with the Blue Jays already ahead 2-1 in the third inning and was credited with the victory. The southpaw reliever has been scored upon just twice in nine July appearances, posting a 2.00 ERA, 0.89 WHIP and 10:1 K:BB in nine innings on the month.

  • Luis Urias 2B | TOR

    Blue Jays' Luis Urias: Goes yard in Monday's win

    Urias went 1-for-2 with a solo home run and two walks in Monday's win over the Nationals.

    Getting the start at second base and batting eighth, Urias got the Blue Jays on the board in the third inning when he drove a first-pitch sinker from Eddy Yean over the fence in center field. Urias has gone just 2-for-14 in seven games since the All-Star break in a depth role, but both hits have left the yard.

  • Braves' Ronald Acuna: Collects hit in return

    Acuna went 1-for-4 with a run scored in Monday's loss to the Mets.

    Making his return from a seven-week absence due to a hamstring strain, Acuna slotted back in as Atlanta's leadoff hitter and laced a single off Zac Thornton in his first trip to the plate before coming around to score on an Ozzie Albies knock. Acuna has had a disappointing, injury-plagued season so far, and through 54 games he's managed a .251/.371/.417 slash line with seven homers, 15 steals, 22 RBI and 32 runs.

  • Giants' Christian Koss: Logs stolen base in win

    Koss went 0-for-2 with a walk and a stolen base in Monday's 3-0 win over the Brewers.

    Casey Schmitt exited Monday's contest with left knee discomfort after hitting a single, and Koss entered the game in his place before stealing second base. The 28-year-old also drew a walk in the fourth inning but was picked off at first. Koss is slashing just .130/.231/.174 with a run scored and a stolen base across 26 plate appearances this season, though he could see more action if Schmitt misses time.

  • Sam Hentges RP | SF

    Giants' Sam Hentges: Earns hold Monday

    Hentges picked up a hold in Monday's 3-0 win over the Brewers, striking out one in a scoreless inning.

    After allowing two runs on seven pitches across one-third of an inning in his previous outing, Hentges bounced back Monday. The 30-year-old southpaw entered the game with a runner on first but retired all three batters he faced, throwing seven of his 13 pitches for strikes. He now owns a 2.53 ERA, 1.55 WHIP and 24:16 K:BB across 21.1 innings in 28 appearances this season.

  • Brady Singer SP | CIN

    Reds' Brady Singer: Making next start Wednesday

    Singer is slated to start Wednesday's series finale against the Guardians in Cincinnati, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports.

    Heading into the week, the Reds had confirmed Singer as their starter for the middle game of the series with the Guardians, but he'll wind up getting pushed back a day in the schedule after a rainout Monday created a doubleheader Tuesday. A candidate to be moved ahead of next Monday's trade deadline, Singer has bounced back from a rocky start to the season by going 3-4 with a 2.92 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 52:16 K:BB In 52.1 innings over nine starts since the beginning of June.
