Junior Caminero homers again in victory on Sunday

Grisham completed seven innings in center field and appears poised to return to New York’s lineup for Friday’s series opener against the Twins. The 29-year-old has been on the shelf with a hamstring strain since mid-June.

Although he wasn’t dominant in finishing with four strikeouts and seven whiffs, this seems like a good sign that McClanahan’s July will more closely resemble his May (4-0, 1.41 ERA) than his June (0-3, 5.79 ERA). McClanahan walked none for the fourth time this year, leaving him with a 77/28 K/BB through 79 2/3 innings. His next start will come at home against the Yankees.

Kelly came into a 4-0 game with two out in the eighth inning, creating the save chance. If it had been a three-run game, one imagines Bryan Baker would have gotten the ball, but since there was no save chance at that point, the Rays let Kelly finish it. After a nightmare of a 2025 season, Kelly has a 2.52 ERA in 39 1/3 innings this year.

Lugo gave up two homers, two doubles and five singles, but he was able to limit the damage by walking none (though he did hit a batter) and striking out seven. He still hasn’t fanned more than seven in a game this season, but he has now reached that total four times. The quality start tonight was his 10th, yet he has a 3-6 record to show for it. He’ll face his old friends the Mets in New York next week.

Mullins has three homers in four games and six over the last month after hitting three through the end of May. Between his struggles hitting for average and his platoon status, he remains a tough play in mixed leagues. However, nine homers and 13 steals at the midpoint is pretty good.

It’s probably going to be an injured list situation for Delgado after he took a bad hop off his throwing hand during the fifth inning of Wednesday’s contest. The 26-year-old rookie was brought back to the majors earlier this week after Jeremy Peña hit the injured list with a calf strain.

Seymour will work without an opener when he faces Kansas City for the second consecutive outing in another favorable road matchup. He tossed 6 2/3 hitless innings in a bulk relief outing against the Royals last week. The 27-year-old lefty has been magnificent recently, posting a pristine 3.86 ERA, 0.95 WHIP and 20/8 K/BB ratio across 21 innings over five outings since the start of June. He’s an extremely attractive streaming option for fantasy managers, even in shallow mixed leagues.

Waldrep draws the starting assignment after he wasn’t needed in relief during Wednesday’s contest, thanks to a stellar performance from Reynaldo López. The 24-year-old tossed a pair of scoreless frames in relief during his season debut against the Giants last Friday. He offers enough strikeout upside that he’s a decent streaming option for fantasy managers in deeper mixed leagues.

Elder will get some additional time off to recover after experiencing some diminished velocity during his last start against the Giants where he allowed five runs over four innings last Saturday. The 27-year-old will be pushed back to next week’s series against the Pirates. It’ll be Grant Holmes taking the ball for Friday’s game against the Mets.

Turner had a solo homer Monday, a two-run homer Tuesday and now a three-run homer tonight. Perhaps the Phillies should try batting him cleanup on Thursday and see what happens. The homer tonight was his 10th of the year. He’s scored runs in seven straight games and two runs in each of the last three.
