Tigers option Enmanuel De Jesus to Triple-A

Walker comes out shortly after Jeremy Peña with an apparent right leg injury against the O’s. Walker appeared to hurt himself on a swing attempt, and wasn’t able to continue after grabbing at his right side. There should be updates on both players shortly.

Surprisingly, it’s his first four-hit game since Apr. 16, 2024. Hoerner, one of the league’s coldest hitters the last couple of months, has six hits in the first two games of the second half. He was 5-for-36 previously this month.

The damage came on Kody Clemens’ solo shot in the second. Boyd allowed only two other hits and struck out four. He’s 4-0 with a 2.57 ERA in five starts since returning from a knee injury last month. He’ll pitch on the road in Pittsburgh next time out.

He got a lot of help. With two on and none out, Brooks Lee drove a ball to right center that Pete Crow-Armstrong came up just shy of making a sliding catch on. The ball then deflected off his glove, bouncing about 15 away from him. In spite of that, Josh Bell was in no position to score from second and wound up getting thrown out heading back to third after a throw home. Lee was trying to go second, but with Victor Caratini correctly reading the situation in front of him and staying put there, Lee gave up on the play entirely for a few seconds and was thrown out returning to first, resulting in a double play. It was all pretty embarrassing for the Twins, but it worked out for Webb, who lowered his ERA to 2.98. He’s the current favorite for saves in Chicago with Daniel Palencia out.

Bradley surrendered a solo homer in the first, two runs on a single, a walk and a double in the second and two more runs on two walks, a single and a double in the third. If not for the free baserunners, it would have been a fine outing. As is, he took his first loss since June 9. Bradley fanned six. He’s 12th in the majors with 124 strikeouts but also tied for 14th with 43 walks. He’ll take a 3.85 ERA into his next start in Cleveland.

Both homers came off lefties, which was pretty impressive. Usually a platoon guy, he had just four career homers in 225 plate appearances against southpaws before taking Matthew Boyd and Caleb Thielbar deep today. Clemens has 12 homers and 30 RBI in his last 35 games. He totaled six homers and 18 RBI in 50 games previously.

Eovaldi is “feeling significantly better” after dealing with illness Friday. The 36-year-old should be good to go for that series finale, but fantasy managers should be prepared just in case, if possible.

Because of the forecasted rain, the two clubs won’t take a chance of getting the game in. Instead, the two teams will play a doubleheader Sunday, beginning at 12:35 P.M. ET. Emmett Sheehan and Ryan Weathers — no pun intended — were the scheduled starters for Saturday’s game, and likely will pitch at some point Sunday in the twin billing.

It appears to be a right leg injury for Peña. The shortstop has been replaced by Nick Allen at shortstop. It’s likely that Peña will undergo further testing to determine the severity of the issue, but either way, further updates should be available shortly.

Bradish hasn’t had his best season — in fact it’s been his worst by ERA at 3.61 since his rookie campaign — but it’s certainly understandable why Baltimore would want to wrap the 29-year-old up at a rate that makes sense for both parties. For his career, he owns a The right-hander will pitch at or near the top of the Baltimore rotation for the remainder of the decade, barring a trade, of course. He owns a career 3.50 ERA, 9.4 K/9 and 1.20 WHIP over his 465 career innings.
