Rockies re-sign John Brebbia to minor league deal

Leahy and four Cardinals relievers had the team in line for a victory before closer Riley O’Brien imploded, allowing six runs in the ninth. The notable takeaway is that Leahy was pulled at 63 pitches, and St. Louis has made it clear his workload will be managed down the stretch. He’s up to 126 1/3 innings this season after throwing 88 in 2025, the vast majority out of the bullpen. St. Louis’ rotation recently suffered injuries to Hunter Dobbins and Andre Pallante, so it remains to be seen how the Cardinals handle Leahy going forward. His next start lines up at home against the Pirates.

Junk struck out two in the outing. It’s a strong outcome against the highest-scoring offense in MLB, but Washington was without James Wood and CJ Abrams, plus Curtis Mead and Luis García Jr. Junk’s streaming upside is limited with so few strikeouts and so little length. He has a rematch with the Nationals in his next start, this time on the road.

Kent struck out five and walked three while throwing 90 pitches. The 2024 fourth-round draft pick has now made three big-league starts with 14 strikeouts, 11 walks, and an 8.03 ERA. Neither his pitch-modeling results nor his ERA estimators suggest better days are ahead. He’s set for a rematch with the Marlins in his next appearance.

Hernández drove in Agustín Ramírez with his first-inning double. He was later robbed of another extra-base hit as Nationals outfielder Jacob Young climbed the wall to take it away. Hernández has shown some power upside this season while hitting lefties more reliably than righties. He’s been batting inside the top three of the order whenever Miami faces a southpaw. The Marlins could see up to four left-handers this week with matchups against the Red Sox and Nationals.

Edwards appeared to be breaking out early, as the light-hitting infielder had a .166 ISO through May. Entering Sunday, that mark was just .036 since June 1. His stolen-base attempt rate has also fallen for the second straight season. He swiped 31 bases in a half-season in 2024, but he was down to 27 last year and sits at 19 in 2026 with five weeks to go.

Woo, who experienced shoulder soreness in his last start, was apparently encouraged by his performance today, but it doesn’t sound like he’s pain-free. Ideally, he’d face the Phillies on Wednesday, but that probably hinges on how he feels tomorrow.

Martinez threw 86 pitches while striking out four, lowering his ERA to 2.93. It was a bounce-back following his worst start of the season earlier this week. The performance was much-needed for the Rays, who entered the day having lost seven of nine and given up ground to the Yankees in the AL East. Martinez’s season-long ERA has been built mostly on a dominant stretch in April and May, but he’s still capable of outings like this and remains a near must-start in fantasy. He’s scheduled to pitch at home against the Padres next time out.

Baker gave up a solo homer to Colton Cowser to begin the ninth. It was worrisome after he took the loss in extra innings on Saturday, though that came with the ghost runner starting on second base. Baker then settled down and retired the side on 12 pitches, securing his league-leading 37th save of the season.

Baz struck out three and walked three in the 96-pitch outing. It was his third time facing his former team this season, but the first two went better than Sunday’s, with 15 strikeouts and two earned runs allowed across 13 frames. Baz appeared headed for another gem against them before three runs came around to score in the top of the sixth, ultimately handing him his league-leading 14th loss. He’ll look to rebound against the A’s in Sacramento next time out.

Simpson was also caught stealing, but the bigger takeaway is that he extended his hitting streak to 14 games. Entering Sunday, he was hitting .393 in his last 13 games, and he’s been in the top half of the Rays’ lineup more consistently as a result. He remains without a big-league homer through 231 career games, but he’s hitting over .300 with 79 thefts in those contests. That makes him more than a one-category performer in fantasy.
