  • STL Starting Pitcher #84

    Cardinals promoted LHP prospect Cooper Hjerpe to Double-A Springfield.
    Hjerpe, 23, posted a 3.35 ERA and a 56/20 K/BB over 11 starts and 37 2/3 innings. The left-hander underwent elbow surgery last year, so the 22-year-old has been brought along slowly in 2024 to manage his innings and expectations. He could be a part of the St. Louis rotation at this point in 2025.
  • ATH Shortstop #5

    Jacob Wilson went 4-for-5 and hit his fourth and fifth homers Tuesday as the A’s crushed the Dodgers 11-1.
    He was on base all five times up, as he also reached on an error. So much of Wilson’s contact is rather weak that it’s always unexpected when he muscles up and hits a ball 380 feet, but he’s definitely demonstrated that he’s capable. He’s up to .363/.389/.512 for the season after tonight. He has 58 hits, yet just 41 hard-hit balls. His barrel and homer totals are also equal, though the league as a whole has a little more than twice as many barrels as homers.
    Houck might be removed from Red Sox rotation
    Eric Samulski discusses Tanner Houck's struggles with the Boston Red Sox, explaining why the starting pitcher might be removed from the team's rotation and sent to the minor leagues.
  • ATH Starting Pitcher #59
    Jeffrey Springs limited the Dodgers to one run in seven innings to earn his fifth win Tuesday.
    Springs is definitely on the short list of the league’s most frustrating pitchers to date. He’s now beaten the Mariners, Padres, Rangers and Dodgers, yet he’s also given up seven runs in a loss to the White Sox, and neither his 4.27 ERA nor his 36/21 K/BB in 46 1/3 innings is very impressive at all. He remains a tough play in mixed leagues at the moment.
  • LAD Starting Pitcher #96
    Landon Knack was tagged for five runs in 4 2/3 innings Tuesday in a loss to the Athletics.
    Knack struck out eight, but he gave up seven hits, two of them homers to take his first loss after two victories this season. He should stay in the rotation for now and face the Diamondbacks next time out.
  • ATH 1st Baseman #16
    Nick Kurtz hit his first major league homer and doubled Tuesday after being dropped to ninth in the A’s lineup.
    Kurtz’s homer was a 415-foot blast off J.P. Feyereisen in the eighth. Two innings previous, he had a 363-foot flyout that would have been a homer in eight ballparks. His double was also legit, leaving his bat at 110.6 mph. Kurtz is worth considering in leagues in which he was dropped.
  • LAD Right Fielder #23
    Michael Conforto doubled three times against the Athletics on Tuesday.
    It’s the first time in his career that Conforto has doubled three times. There were no soft ones tonight, either, as his hits left the bat at 106.1, 103.7 and 109.5 mph. As much as he’s struggled this season, it seems like a good sign, especially coming on a night that no one else in the Dodgers lineup had much luck.
  • SD Right Fielder #23
    Fernando Tatis Jr. hit his first career walkoff homer against Kenley Jansen in the bottom of the ninth as the Padres beat the Angels 6-4 on Tuesday.
    The 430-foot homer, which also played Elias Díaz, was Tatis’s 11th of the season. Tatis also walked and scored in the Padres’ two-run rally that tied the game in the eighth. His 11th homer puts him in a tie for eighth in the majors. He’s also eighth with his .963 OPS.
  • SD Starting Pitcher #84
    Dylan Cease fanned 10 while allowing two runs in 6 2/3 innings Tuesday against the Angels.
    Cease was pulled with a 2-1 lead after walking a batter with two outs in the seventh and then watched as the Angels went on to score three runs in the frame. It left him with his sixth no-decision in nine starts. Still, he set a season-high for strikeouts for the second straight outing. He has a 3.06 ERA and a 40/12 K/BB while going 0-1 in his last six starts.
  • LAA Starting Pitcher #59
    José Soriano limited the Padres to a pair of unearned runs over seven innings in a no-decision Tuesday.
    Both runs came in the fifth inning, which featured errors by Jo Adell and Logan O’Hoppe. Neither of those technically cost the Angels an out, but they allowed runners to advance, and the second run scored on a squeeze bunt from Martín Maldonado. It was Soriano’s sixth straight start without a win, and he remains 2-4 with a 3.46 ERA. He’ll pitch in Sacramento next time out.
  • LAA Relief Pitcher #74
    Kenley Jansen took a loss after giving up a two-run homer in a tie game Tuesday against the Padres.
    The struggling Jansen walked Elias Díaz and then gave up a game-ending homer to Fernando Tatis Jr. He’s still a perfect 7-for-7 in save chances this season, but he’s given up four homers and eight runs this month. That said, his closing gig is probably safe until he blows at least one save. It’s not like the Angels have anyone else they want to take over with Ben Joyce on the IL.
  • LAA Left Fielder #15
    Matthew Lugo hit a two-run homer in his lone at-bat off the bench Tuesday against the Padres.
    Lugo hit for Kyren Paris in the seventh and then stayed in to play center afterwards. If the Angels actually trust him in center, then there wouldn’t be any harm in giving him a look as a starter for a spell. After all, Paris is currently seven for his last 70 at the plate.
