Nationals re-sign Matt Krook to one-year contract

Estrada has been out since the beginning of June with right knee inflammation. The 27-year-old has a 3.48 ERA, 1.11 WHIP, and 23/10 K/BB in 20 2/3 innings for the Padres.

Gusto struck out three and walked two, raising his ERA to 5.31. Down 6-0, Miami scored eight unanswered to sweep Philadelphia. He’s made 13 appearances (eight starts) on the year but remains off the fantasy radar. His next outing lines up against the Braves in Atlanta.

Fairbanks struck out one in the 13-pitch inning. His ERA sits at 6.75, but he’s remained Miami’s closer. He only has three saves this month, though that has a lot to do with the All-Star break and the club’s 12-game losing streak prior to sweeping Philadelphia. The trade deadline is about to shake up bullpens across the league, so it’ll be interesting to see if his situation changes over the next week.

Luzardo struck out five and walked three, raising his ERA to 3.57. The Phillies jumped out to a 6-0 lead before the Marlins scored eight unanswered runs to secure the sweep. Philadelphia has now lost seven of eight, making Luzardo’s seventh-inning collapse ill-timed. He lines up to face the high-scoring Nationals at home next time out.

Hernández hit two homers in the Marlins’ three-game sweep of the Phillies, connecting for long balls off Zack Wheeler and Jesús Luzardo. The hot-hitting outfielder is of the high-SLG, low-OBP variety. He’s made 17 straight starts for Miami. His 16 home runs this season lead the team. The Athletic reported Wednesday that the front office is willing to listen to offers for several hitters, including Hernández. He’s a name to watch ahead of Monday’s trade deadline.

The lefty-hitting outfielder was out of the lineup as Philadelphia started southpaw Jesús Luzardo. He still made his presence felt and now has a .563 slugging percentage in 127 plate appearances on the year. Conine has been starting against every right-hander the Marlins have faced recently. His Statcast metrics suggest a career-best season, though the sample remains small. He’s someone to keep an eye on in deeper leagues when the team has several righties on the schedule.

Edwards’ two RBI came on a game-tying single in the seventh. Miami was down 6-0 before scoring eight unanswered runs to sweep the Phillies. The comeback is even more notable considering they had lost 12 straight entering the series. Edwards hasn’t hit as well lately as he did earlier in the year, but a high batting average with speed and non-zero power has been a season-long win for fantasy managers, especially at a weak position. His underlying metrics suggest he’s taken a real step forward in 2026.

Turner’s fifth-inning solo shot helped the Phillies jump out to a 6-0 lead. However, they allowed the Marlins to score eight unanswered runs, losing for the seventh time in eight games. Turner has had a letdown season to date, but his bat has come alive in the second half. He now has five homers since the All-Star break compared to 10 in the first half.

Sewald will pitch in lower-leverage situations in the short-term while the Diamondbacks use a closer by committee. Brandyn Garcia got the save on Wednesday, but Lovullo also mentioned that it could be Juan Morillo, Jonathan Loaisiga, or Kevin Ginkel in future save opportunities. Our best guess would be some sort of committee with Garcia and Morillo at the heart of it. Of course, Justin Martinez could come back at some point in August and join the fold.

This could be the end of the comeback story for Manoah. The 28-year-old was sent to Triple-A in May after posting a 9.82 ERA in 7 1/3 innings for the Angels. Manoah then posted a 16.14 ERA in 30 2/3 innings across 10 starts at Triple-A. Injuries have contributed to the sharp and surprising fall for the former top prospect who earned AL Cy Young votes back in 2022.
