    Orioles acquired RHP Anthony Eyanson, RHP Kyson Witherspoon, OF Enddy Azocar and C Carlos Narvaez from the Red Sox for C Adley Rutschman and C Jake Rogers.

    The crown jewel of Baltimore’s gigantic prospect haul, Eyanson was universally regarded as Boston’s top minor-league arm and second-ranked prospect behind shortstop Franklin Arias. The 21-year-old has compiled a microscopic 1.32 ERA and 94/26 K/BB ratio across 68 1/3 innings during his professional debut after being selected in the third round of last year’s draft following a standout collegiate career for LSU’s powerhouse program. It’s not hyperbolic to project Eyanson, who attacks hitters with a mid-90’s fastball in addition to a nasty slider and developing curveball, as a realistic mid-rotation arm and a highly impactful fantasy contributor in the not-so-distant future.

    Apparently, the medicals were approved. The Orioles will get Anthony Eyanson (Boston’s No. 1 pitching prospect), 2025 first-rounder Kyson Witherspoon, Carlos Narváez and more, according to the Baltimore Sun’s Jacob Calvin Meyer. The Red Sox will have Rutschman under control through 2027. He’s still on the IL for now, but he’ll take over from Connor Wong as the starter when healthy. Jake Rogers is also in the deal going to Boston, so he’ll back up Wong for now. For Baltimore, the move clears the way for Samuel Basallo to spend the next several years as a starting catcher.
  • MIA Shortstop #6
    McAdam spoke with a league source that indicated the chances of a deal to send Lopez to Boston are “dead” and it appears highly unlikely the Marlins will trade him. It’s purely speculation, but the Red Sox figure to be extremely reluctant to move either of their top prospects in shortstop Franklin Arias, who is tearing the cover off the ball since being promoted to Triple-A Worcester recently, and righty Anthony Eyanson, who struck out a season-high 10 batters at Double-A Portland on Friday night. The Red Sox have been linked to multiple shortstops ahead of next week’s trade deadline, but it seems highly unlikely that Lopez is going to Boston, or anywhere else at the moment.
  • BOS Starting Pitcher
    Boston’s top pitching prospect by a country mile, Eyanson has compiled a microscopic 1.32 ERA and 94/26 K/BB ratio across 68 1/3 innings during his professional debut after being selected in the third round of last year’s draft. The 21-year-old is unlikely to reach the big leagues this season given the organization’s pitching depth at the highest level, but he could factor into their rotation plans at some point early next year.
  • BOS Starting Pitcher
    Eyanson was summoned to record the final out of the fourth inning with the potential go-ahead run in scoring position. He walked Ethan Salas before generating an inning-ending fly ball to center field from Luis Peña. The 21-year-old righty has been one of this season’s biggest pitching breakout prospects, posting a pristine 1.29 ERA, 0.86 WHIP and 71/20 K/BB ratio across 55 2/3 innings between Double-A Portland and High-A Greenville. He’s routinely sitting in the mid-90s with his fastball, averaging 93.6 mph in this showcase, and should continue to move quickly through Boston’s system after being selected in the third round of last year’s MLB Draft.
  • BOS Starting Pitcher
    Eyanson is fast becoming one of the top pitching prospects in Boston’s loaded prospect class. A third-round pick in 2025, Eyanson allowed one run on seven hits in 20 1/3 High-A innings this season with a 34/3 K/BB ratio. He certainly needs to face a higher level of competition.

    Corbin Carroll (back) is expected to return to the Diamondbacks’ starting lineup for Friday’s series opener against the Rangers.

    According to John Gambadoro of Arizona Sports, the Diamondbacks didn’t find anything concerning in Carroll’s MRI exam and the expectation is that he’ll return to action on Friday after missing each of the Diamondbacks’ previous two games. Fantasy managers should be able to breathe a sigh of relief.

    Cruz opened the scoring in the ballgame with a 433-foot (117.4-mph EV) blast off of Erick Fedde to open the fourth inning. He also added on a valuable insurance run with an RBI single off of Bryan Hudson in the eighth. The dynamic 27-year-old is having an outstanding all-around season at the plate, slashing .276/.362/.486 to go along with 18 homers, 62 RBI, 89 runs scored and 27 stolen bases in only 367 plate appearances across his 84 games.

He then led off the eighth inning with an infield single, again swiped second base and scored on an RBI single off the bat of Oneil Cruz.

    Mason Montgomery slammed the door on the White Sox on Thursday evening, working a scoreless ninth inning to preserve a two-run advantage.

    Montgomery made things a bit interesting, allowing a leadoff single to Randal Grichuk that brought the tying run to the dish. He rebounded though, to retire Miguel Vargas and Munetaka Murakami on ground balls before striking out Edgar Quero to end the game. The 26-year-old southpaw has been terrific for the Bucs this season, registering a 2.77 ERA, 1.04 WHIP and a 95/23 K/BB ratio over 61 2/3 innings while converting 12 of his first 14 save chances.

    Jared Jones delivered a dazzling performance in Thursday night’s victory over the White Sox, allowing just one hit and two walks over seven shutout innings.

    Jones racked up eight strikeouts in the dominant performance. The lone hit against him came with two outs in the seventh inning as Colson Montgomery doubled to right. The 25-year-old righty piled up a whopping 20 swings and misses on 90 offerings in the game — 12 of those on his slider — while posting a strong CSW of 33 percent. He’ll look to keep the good times rolling as he carries a 4.10 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and a 100/30 K/BB ratio (85 2/3 innings) into a tough matchup against the Brewers on Wednesday.

    Miguel Vargas went 0-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base as the White Sox were shut out by the Pirates on Thursday evening.

    Vargas drew a leadoff walk in the fourth inning, swiped second base and took third on a throwing error, but the White Sox couldn’t cash him in from there. The 26-year-old is having an outstanding season at the dish, slashing .248/.359/.477 with 30 homers, 79 RBI and 17 stolen bases — career highs across the board.

    Erick Fedde pitched well in a losing effort against the Pirates on Thursday night, allowing two runs on four hits across 5 1/3 innings.

    Fedde struck out three batters on the night and didn’t allow a base on balls. He took over in the third inning and worked into the eighth. He served up a solo homer to Oneil Cruz in the fourth inning, then exited with a man on second and one out in the eighth and that runner ultimately scored against the bullpen. Fedde got six whiffs on 81 pitches on the night, posting an uninspiring CSW of 22 percent. He’ll bring a respectable 3.97 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and a 91/48 K/BB ratio (133 2/3 innings) into Tuesday’s matchup against the Guardians in Cleveland.

    Anthony Volpe went 3-for-4 with a grand slam and five RBI on Thursday night, leading the Yankees in a 10-3 thrashing of the Rockies.

    Volpe certainly made the most of his return to the Bronx on Thursday. He smacked an RBI single off of Ryan Feltner in the second inning that increased the Yankees’ lead to 3-1. He also swiped third base before being stranded there. Volpe then delivered a 352-foot (104.0-mph EV) grand slam off of Jimmy Herget in the seventh inning that made it a 10-2 ballgame. With his three-hit attack, the 25-year-old infielder is now slashing .251/.333/.349 with just two homers, 24 RBI and eight stolen bases in 198 plate appearances with the Yankees this season.

    Luis García Jr. went 1-for-5 and launched his 30th home run of the season on Thursday in a lopsided victory over the visiting Rockies.

    García got the Yankees’ offense started in the opening inning with a 413-foot (103.7-mph EV) two-run shot off of Rockies’ right-hander Ryan Feltner. It’s the first time in his career that the 26-year-old infielder has eclipsed the 30-homer plateau. He’s in the midst of an unbelievable offensive campaign, slashing .287.319/.553 with 30 homers, 91 RBI and five stolen bases in 499 plate appearances between the Nationals and Yankees.

    Jones did his damage during a six-run uprising in the seventh inning, with his two-run single extending the Yankees’ lead to 6-2. He then rode home on Anthony Volpe’s grand slam. With his three-hit evening, the 25-year-old slugger is now hitting .255/.333/.452 with nine homers, 33 RBI and nine stolen bases in his first 235 plate appearances with the Bombers.
