Clay Holmes

NYY Relief Pitcher #35

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Clay Holmes allowed one run on three hits in the ninth inning on Tuesday to take his eighth blown save of the season.

The Yankees would go on to win the game, but it’s mildly concerning for Holmes considering the Yankees also spent the trade deadline adding bullpen reinforcements. Holmes has a 2.89 ERA and 21 saves on the season so his job isn’t in any imminent danger, but the Yankees are not going to waste a year of Juan Soto and Aaron Judge together, so they would make a move if they needed to.

Kodai Senga

NYM Starting Pitcher #34

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Mets’ manager Carlos Mendoza told reporters on Friday that Kodai Senga (back, arm) will make an additional minor league rehab start before rejoining the Mets.

Senga looked sharp in his latest outing on Thursday, allowing just one run on one hit over six innings at Double-A Binghampton. He got up to 75 pitches in that one, so expect him to be around 90 offerings his next time out.

Eli Morgan

KC Relief Pitcher #34

Royals recalled RHP Eli Morgan from Triple-A Omaha.

The 30-year-old right-hander will rejoin the Royals’ bullpen for at least a few days with Seth Lugo (concussion) landing on the injured list. Morgan has made 13 appearances for the Royals this season, registering a 5.51 ERA, 1.90 WHIP and a 15/8 K/BB ratio over 16 1/3 innings.

Seth Lugo

KC Starting Pitcher #67

Royals placed RHP Seth Lugo on the 7-day concussion injured list.

Lugo is still feeling the effects of getting drilled in the head by a comebacker off the bat of Brandon Nimmo during his last start. While the Royals were hopeful that he would be able to take his next turn through the rotation, he’ll need to pass through the concussion protocol first before he’s cleared to return.

Jacob Wilson

ATH Shortstop #5

Athletics activated SS Jacob Wilson from the 10-day injured list.

The 24-year-old infielder had been sidelined since May 11 due to a left shoulder subluxation. He returns at just the right time too as the A’s lose Brent Rooker (knee) to the injured list on Friday. Prior to landing on the shelf, Wilson had been hitting .292/.311/.398 with three homers, 19 RBI and a pair of steals in his first 39 games.

Brent Rooker

ATH Designated Hitter #25

Athletics placed OF Brent Rooker on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to June 9, with a bone bruise in his left knee.

Rooker had missed Wednesday’s game against the Brewers due to the issue and didn’t feel any improvement after Thursday’s off day, so they’ll sit him down and let the injury heal properly. Jacob Wilson was activated from the injured list in a corresponding move on Friday.

Blaze Jordan

STL 1st Baseman #49

Blaze Jordan will start at third base and bat eighth for the Cardinals in his MLB debut against the Twins on Friday evening in Minneapolis.

With Nolan Gorman optioned to Triple-A, the runway is there for Jordan to get everyday at-bats with the Cardinals to show what he can do. The power potential is legit here, which may make him an intriguing addition in deeper mixed leagues.

Colson Montgomery

CWS Shortstop #12

Colson Montgomery (back) rejoined the White Sox’ starting lineup for Friday’s series opener against the Dodgers.

The 24-year-old slugger had missed the team’s last two games after tweaking his back. He’s back at shortstop and in the cleanup spot for the White Sox against Dodgers’ right-hander Roki Sasaki on Friday evening in Chicago.

Marcelo Mayer

BOS 2nd Baseman #11

Marcelo Mayer (neck, back) returned to the Red Sox’ starting lineup for Friday’s series opener against the Rangers.

Mayer was held out of action on Wednesday due to neck and back spasms, but he appears to be doing much better after Thursday’s off-day. He’ll start at shortstop and bat eighth against Rangers’ right-hander Jack Leiter on Friday evening at Fenway Park.
