Geraldo Perdomo SS | ARI
Diamondbacks' Geraldo Perdomo: Nursing knee soreness
Perdomo left Monday's game against Colorado due to left knee soreness.
This appears to be a minor issue for Perdomo, who went 0-for-2 with a walk and a run before exiting. He'll presumably be re-evaluated Tuesday morning and can be considered day-to-day. Manager Torey Lovullo stated after the game that Perdomo is fine, but he could get the next day or two off as a precaution, per Jose M. Romero of The Arizona Republic. Ildemaro Vargas would be in line for more looks at shortstop if Perdomo misses additional time.

Austin Martin RF | MIN
Twins' Austin Martin: Stuffs stat sheet in win
Martin went 4-for-5 with a home run, a double, a stolen base and two additional runs scored in Monday's 9-5 win over the Orioles.
Martin was a thorn in the side of Baltimore pitching out of the leadoff spot, showing off both power and speed Monday. It was his first four-hit attack of the campaign as well as the first time he's homered and swiped a bag in a game this season. Martin has an .809 OPS in 120 at-bats versus left-handed pitchers as opposed to a .587 OPS over 157 at-bats against right-handers, and his lack of success against righties should continue to inhibit his fantasy upside.

Diamondbacks' Geraldo Perdomo: Lifted early Monday
Perdomo was removed during the fifth inning of Monday's game against the Rockies for an undisclosed reason, Jack Sommers of SI.com reports.
It's not yet clear if Perdomo left with an injury, though it would be a bit odd to pull him at this stage in the game to get him off his feet, even with a 7-0 lead. The team could provide more information about the shortstop's removal after the game.

Francisco Lindor SS | NYM
Mets' Francisco Lindor: Homer, three hits in win
Lindor went 3-for-5 with a solo home run, a double and two additional runs scored in Monday's 8-5 win over Atlanta.
Lindor set the tone from the top of the order, highlighted by a 420-foot blast off Bryce Elder in the third inning. The shortstop finally appears to be heating up, hitting safely in nine of his past 11 contests with four multi-hit efforts, five extra-base hits, seven RBI and 10 runs scored during that stretch. On the year, he's slashing .242/.327/.439 with 11 homers, 30 RBI, 36 runs scored and three steals across 275 plate appearances.

Brett Baty 3B | NYM
Mets' Brett Baty: Launches grand slam in win
Baty went 1-for-3 with a grand slam and a walk in Monday's 8-5 win over Atlanta.
Baty broke things open in the first inning with his first career grand slam off Bryce Elder. The 26-year-old Baty has gone just 4-for-27 over his past 10 games, but two of those hits have left the yard. On the season, he's slashing .215/.286/.330 with eight homers, 38 RBI, 42 runs scored and five steals across 379 plate appearances.

Dean Kremer SP | MIN
Twins' Dean Kremer: Dominates former team in win
Kremer (2-4) earned the win against the Orioles on Monday, allowing one run on one hit and one walk in seven innings. He struck out seven.
Facing the team that traded him away a bit over a week ago, Kremer looked very comfortable on the mound against his former Baltimore teammates. The right-hander poured in 60 of his 89 offerings for strikes, putting together his longest outing of the year in his first quality start since July 1 versus the White Sox. Kremer has conceded just a pair of runs in his first 12 innings for the Twins, and he'll try to further improve his 5.25 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 47:14 K:BB over 48 frames in 2026 this weekend against Philadelphia.

Hector Osorio CF | TEX
Rangers' Hector Osorio: On mend from injury
High-A Hub City placed Osorio on the 7-day injured list July 24 due to an unspecified injury.
Osorio made just three appearances coming out of the All-Star break before being shut down. After opening the season at Single-A Hickory, Osorio has continued to produce at a high level since getting bumped up to the South Atlantic League on June 9. Over 34 games at Hub City, the 21-year-old outfielder from Venezuela has slashed .275/.370/.489 with eight home runs.

Christian Scott SP | NYM
Mets' Christian Scott: Chased early in no-decision
Scott did not factor into the decision in Monday's 8-5 win over Atlanta, allowing four runs on seven hits and one walk with six strikeouts over four innings.
Scott was given plenty of run support but was unable to work deep enough to qualify for a win despite throwing a solid 56 of 82 pitches for strikes. It was a bit of a step back after the 27-year-old tossed 11 innings over his previous two starts while exceeding 90 pitches on both occasions, but he's still managed at least six punchouts in five straight contests. He'll take a 3.45 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 98:33 K across 78.1 innings this season into a home matchup with the Nationals this weekend.

Trevor Rogers SP | BAL
Orioles' Trevor Rogers: Wild in eighth loss
Rogers (7-8) took the loss against the Twins on Monday, allowing two runs on four hits and two walks in four innings. He struck out four.
Rogers struggled to find the plate Monday, throwing only 45 of his 79 pitches for strikes while also plunking a pair of batters. It was the southpaw's shortest outing since May 8 in Tampa Bay, breaking up his streak of 12 starts with at least five innings. Rogers, who's worked to a 2.41 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 64:16 K:BB since the start of June (71 innings), will be aiming to rediscover his control against the Rays in pitcher-friendly Tampa Bay his next time out.

Bryce Elder SP | ATL
Braves' Bryce Elder: Hammered early in loss
Elder (8-7) took the loss against the Mets on Monday, allowing seven runs on 10 hits and three walks with four strikeouts over five innings.
Elder allowed seven runs over his first three frames, with the majority of the damage coming on a first-inning grand slam. It ends a hot stretch for the 27-year-old, who entered Monday having posted three quality starts while yielding just five earned runs through his first four second-half outings. He owns a 4.03 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 108:45 K across 131.2 innings this season and lines up for a home matchup with the Diamondbacks this weekend.
