Drake allowed one run on four hits and two walks while striking out five over five innings in a no-decision versus the Athletics on Tuesday.

Drake threw 46 of 85 pitches for strikes in his major-league debut. He was able to limit the damage to an RBI single by Alika Williams in the third inning. Drake had managed an unsightly 6.92 ERA with a 60:31 K:BB over 66.1 innings with Triple-A Reno this season, but he showed well enough in his major-league debut to potentially get another look. If that happens, he's tentatively lined up for a tough road matchup versus the Nationals over the weekend.

Avila (5-3) earned the win Tuesday against the Giants, allowing two runs on five hits and one walk while striking out seven over 6.1 innings.

Avila was dominant early, allowing just one hit through his first four innings before the Giants strung together three consecutive hits in the fifth to produce a two-run frame. He set career highs with 6.1 innings and seven strikeouts while improving to 5-1 over his last six decisions. The right-hander has struggled at Kauffman Stadium this season, posting a 7.88 ERA at home compared to his 3.00 ERA on the road. Avila's next start is scheduled to be a road outing against the Tigers.

Teel is expected to miss 6-to-12 weeks due to left high-ankle sprain, MLB.com reports.

When Teel was placed on the injured list, his timeline to return was unclear. The White Sox have since announced that Teel will be sidelined at least six weeks, or until the beginning of September. He's had a frustrating 2026 season, as he was unable to make his debut until June 22 due to a hamstring injury he suffered during the World Baseball Classic.

Doyle (oblique) has resumed full baseball activities, MLB.com reports.

Doyle was pulled off a rehab assignment July 5 due to a groin issue, but he has seemingly made significant progress. Assuming he continues to feel well, Doyle is expected to start a new rehab assignment Thursday.

McCarthy went 2-for-5 with a run scored and an RBI on Tuesday against the Nationals.

McCarthy contributed to a four-run second inning for the Rockies, doubling in a run and also coming around to score. He is riding an eight-game hitting streak, during which he has gone 12-for-32 with three doubles, one homer, five RBI, seven runs scored and three stolen bases. McCarthy continues to enjoy a career-best season, and he matched the highest RBI total of his career (56) with Tuesday's performance.

Abrams went 2-for-3 with two home runs, a walk and four total RBI in a loss to the Rockies on Tuesday.

Abrams slugged a two-run shot to center field in the first inning and added another two-run blast in the third. The All-Star shortstop has homered in three straight games, producing four long balls and eight RBI over that stretch. The power surge has lifted Abrams to 24 home runs on the campaign, tied for ninth in the majors with fellow shortstop Colson Montgomery. Abrams is also tied for the league lead with 76 RBI and ranks 12th with an .892 OPS.

Carrigg went 3-for-5 with an RBI and a stolen base Tuesdsay against the Nationals.

Carrigg has taken advantage of the Rockies' current homestand, as Tuesday marked his fourth straight game with at least one hit. He also stole his third base of the season after driving in a run in the second inning. Carrigg has notably moved up the Rockies' order of late, hitting third in six of his last seven starts.

Naylor went 3-for-4 with a stolen base in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Reds.

Naylor has five steals over his last 10 games and has gone 12-for-36 (.333) at the plate in that span. The first baseman continues to provide unexpected contributions in steals -- he's up to 20 this season after swiping 30 bags between Seattle and Arizona in the 2025 regular season. Naylor is batting .258 with a .676 OPS, eight home runs, 37 RBI, 37 runs scored and 12 doubles over 95 contests this year.

Wilson went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Reds.

Wilson has hit safely and driven in a run in each of his last four games. He is still filling a utility role and will likely be at risk of losing his roster spot once Brendan Donovan (groin) is ready to return. Between Seattle and Baltimore this season, Wilson is batting .231 with a .706 OPS, three homers, nine RBI, 10 runs scored, two doubles and four stolen bases over 72 plate appearances.

Goodman went 2-for-5 with a solo home run, an additional run scored and a double Tuesday in an 8-7 victory versus Washington.

Goodman snapped a 7-7 tie with a solo blast in the eighth inning, producing what ended up being the winning run. The All-Star catcher has five hits in 16 at-bats since the midseason break, with all five knocks (four homers and a double) going for extra bases. Goodman's homer Tuesday was his 31st of the season in his 94th game, tying the career-high mark he established over 144 contests last year.
