Jagielo was having a solid start to his full-season debut when he landed on the disabled list in late May, batting .256/.339/.500 with 10 home runs, eight doubles and 31 RBI through 42 games at the time of the injury. The 22-year-old hasn’t found his groove since returning to action, evidenced by his .250/.333/.426 batting line, three home runs and 24-5 strikeout-to-walk ratio in 19 games. However, the left-handed hitter has shown signs of coming around lately, with a .306 batting average and two long balls in his past 10 contests.

Wallner was shaking his left hand after getting hit in the sixth, but according to The Athletic’s Dan Hayes, the Twins were just playing matchups when they removed him an inning later.

Bummer. At least the Reds are getting Nick Lodolo back on Tuesday, but they might need to again turn to Chase Petty if Lowder lands on the IL, as seems likely. Lowder ended up being charged with three runs in three-plus innings today against the Cubs, as both guys he left on in the fourth came around to score.

Gelof has mostly played against lefties since getting called up, but this is his second straight start against a righty. Hernaiz had started nine straight games prior to yesterday. Sporting both the best strikeout rate and bat speed of his career, Gelof is batting .255/.300/.426 through 52 plate appearances. If he reemerges as a regular and gets back to stealing bases, there’s a chance he could offer some mixed-league value in a fantastic situation for hitters in Sacramento.

Gray, a right-hander, was hit just above his glove and was bleeding from the area afterwards. He looked like he wanted to continue anyway, but Gavin Collyer was brought in to take his place.

Lowder got a visit from the trainer after throwing a pitch to Michael Busch and left for the dugout a couple of minutes later without trying any warmup pitches. Connor Phillips replaced him. Lowder was charged with one run over the first three innings and had two men on base with none out in the fourth when he exited.

The pitch was only a few inches inside, and Wallner was trying to check his swing when his top hand got hit. Hopefully, this proves minor. Wallner was showing signs of warming up at the plate, having gone 4-for-8 with a homer and a double in his previous two games.

Holman is with his fourth organization in three months after being DFA’d by the A’s, the Dodgers and the Tigers. The 25-year-old has a 4.66 ERA in 38 2/3 innings, all with the A’s, as a major league reliever.

Bohn’s xwOBA has been somewhat better of late than it was at the beginning of the year, but that’s not saying much. He’s 4-for-20 with two RBI to begin May, leaving him at .159/.227/.206 overall.

Donovan, on the IL with a groin strain, was supposed to play in two rehab games, but since last night’s was rained out, he’s returning after just one. He’ll presumably go right back into the leadoff spot for Seattle. Jhonny Pereda will likely go back to Triple-A, assuming that Cal Raleigh is fine to catch.

Burgos, 27, joins the Red Sox after posting a 5.25 ERA in three starts in the Mexican League. He also allowed one run in 3 2/3 innings for Puerto Rico in the WBC this spring. His major league experience consists of one appearance with the Giants in 2024.
