Mariners recall Cole Wilcox from Triple-A

Universally regarded as baseball’s top prospect, Made notched his his second four-hit game of the season just a few hours after being named to the 2026 MLB All-Star Futures Game for the National League. He’s posted seven multi-hit performances in his last 13 games. It’s relatively easy to envision the 19-year-old phenom blossoming into a five-category fantasy force, as he’s slashing .289/.359/.448 with seven homers and 24 steals through 69 games this season despite being the youngest hitter at the Double-A level. Most of his over-the-fence power remains projection at this stage, but he’s already producing elite exit velocities for his age, bolstering confidence that more in-game power will emerge as he continues to mature physically.

His teammate Mike Sirota also homered while extending his on-base streak to a surreal 65 consecutive games. The tandem were named to the National League’s roster for the upcoming 2026 MLB All-Star Futures Game earlier this week. It was De Paula’s second multi-homer performance of the season as he’s slashing a robust .322/.419/.563 with 15 round-trippers and 21 steals in 73 games. The Athletic’s Katie Woo reported earlier this week that De Paula is basically the lone untouchable prospect in Los Angeles’ system approaching next month’s trade deadline. He’s evolved into a top-five range fantasy prospect in dynasty leagues and has a chance to be a five-category monster as part of the Dodgers loaded lineup once he reaches the majors.

Hartman is the first minor leaguer to reach the 20-homer, 30-steal thresholds this season, needing just 71 games to get there. He’s the first hitter in Atlanta’s system to reach those marks since Ronald Acuña Jr. back in 2017. You’ve probably heard of him. The 20-year-old prodigy has boosted his long-term fantasy stock more than any prospect in baseball this year, skyrocketing from relative obscurity to an elite dynasty asset. He possesses off-the-charts athleticism, big-time power upside and elite speed, giving him a legitimate shot at fantasy superstardom if everything comes together.

This was the good version of Bradley. His velocity was up a bit and his fastball sat just above 98 mph and touched 100 mph a couple of times. With that, he had no fear challenging the Astros’ hitters with it in the zone. Apart from that, he had solid command of his secondaries. The Astros have a very right-handed heavy lineup and Bradley used his more slider-ish cutter breaking down and away against them. Also, he was mostly consistent with his splitter below the zone and even stole a few called strikes with it early in the count when he needed to. His 11 strikeouts matched a career-high and he now has a 3.86 ERA, 102 strikeouts, and 38 walks through 88 2/3 innings this season. He’s lined up to face the Guardians next time out in his final outing before the All-Star break.

Clemens smashed a three-run home run off a high fastball from Tatsuya Imai in the second inning that practically ended his night. That was Clemens’ 14th home run on the season after hitting a career-high 19 last year. This has been a sensational multi-year power surge from Clemens who entered 2025 with just 14 career long balls and looks the part of a legitimate middle of the order bat at the moment.

This was just another day at the office for Alvarez. Three batted balls hit harder than 100 mph, three more hits, a walk, and he raised his batting average to .319 in the process. His season is still so ridiculously impressive as we approach the All-Star break that the Astros’ broadcast flashed a triple crown graphic during this game. With 26 home runs and 60 RBI to go with that .319 average – each of which are top-two in the American League – it’s not a crazy conversation to have.

Just when you thought you were in, he pushes you back out. Imai’s command issues came roaring back here with an awful 37% zone rate that turned into five walks. Two of those walks precluded a three-run home run from Kody Clemens and after a walk that immediately followed, he was yanked after recording just four outs. His approach is always tenuous because he only has two pitches. To make it even less reliable, his fastball is strictly a zone pitch and his slider is mostly a chase pitch. His slider was erratic here, so his misses wound up noncompetitive and were not chased. So, he wound up not having a leg to stand on. Even after a great stretch before his start, Imai has an ugly 6.14 ERA. He’s scheduled to face the Nationals on the road in his next start.

Ramos hit a 427-foot homer off Zac Gallen, and his 373-foot triple would have been a homer in 13 ballparks. Playing time seemed like it might be a question after Ramos returned from the IL on Sunday, but with Willy Adames and Matt Chapman down and Casey Schmitt returning to the infield, he’s started all four games since returning. As long as he’s an everyday guy, he should offer a little mixed-league value.

He struck out five. McDonald’s first scoreless start as a big leaguer comes after six straight losses and moved him to 3-6 with a 4.42 ERA through 11 starts this season. His strong groundball rate bodes pretty well going forward, but he’s still going to need to produce more strikeouts with his slider in order to turn into more than a bottom-of-the-rotation guy. He’ll face the Blue Jays next week.

He struck out Adrian Del Castillo and Nolan Arenado before getting Pavin Smith to ground out tonight. Kilian improved to 3-for-4 in save chances since officially being named the Giants’ closer and 7-for-9 overall on the season.
