  • TEX 2nd Baseman #2

    Marcus Semien went 1-for-4 with a solo home run on Wednesday against the Twins.
    We’re finally seeing some genuine signs of life from Semien. He smoked his homer 104.5 mph and an estimated 424 feet. Four of his seven long balls this season have come in his last 11 games and he sneakily has an .820 OPS over his last 30 games. Perhaps the reports of his demise were overblown.
  • TOR Relief Pitcher #43

    Ryan Burr was removed from Wednesday’s game against the White Sox with a right shoulder injury.
    Burr will undergo an MRI later this week in Toronto to determine the extent of the injury. It feels like a virtual lock that he’ll wind up back on the injured list. The 31-year-old was lifted from his second appearance of the season after recording only two outs. He missed the first three months of the year with shoulder inflammation.
    Brewers' Hoskins lands on IL with sprained thumb
    Eric Samulski evaluates why Andrew Vaughn should be added in deeper fantasy leagues after the Milwaukee Brewers placed slugger Rhys Hoskins on the 10-day IL with a sprained thumb.
  • CLE Starting Pitcher #49
    Guardians re-signed LHP Kolby Allard to a minor league contract.
    Allard is back with Cleveland on their taxi squad ahead of Wednesday’s game in Houston. The 27-year-old southpaw elected free agency earlier this week, but ultimately decided to stick around with the Guardians as extra relief depth. There’s a decent chance he’s back in the majors in the near future.
  • ARI Center Fielder #5
    Alek Thomas (knee) is back in the lineup for Wednesday’s game against the Padres.
    Thomas returns to center field and will bat ninth in this one after being scratched from Tuesday’s lineup with right knee soreness. The fact he’s already back in the outfield seems to suggest that the issue isn’t a massive concern heading into the All-Star break.
  • ARI 1st Baseman #22
    Josh Naylor is not in the lineup for Wednesday’s showdown against the Padres.
    Naylor has been battling through shoulder and neck issues recently so the Diamondbacks are going to give him a break on Wednesday night from facing Padres ace Dylan Cease. That honor goes to rookie Tristin English, who will be making his first career start in this one. Good luck, kid.
  • HOU 3rd Baseman #15
    Isaac Paredes has been added to the American League roster for next week’s MLB All-Star Game.
    Paredes has been selected to replace José Ramírez on the junior circuit’s roster. It’s his second consecutive All-Star Game appearance. According to a team statement, Ramírez — a seven-time All-Star selection — is skipping the Midsummer Classic to focus on recovery and preparation for the second half.
  • HOU Center Fielder #6
    Jake Meyers (calf) is back in the lineup for Wednesday’s game against the Guardians.
    Meyers is back patrolling center field and batting second on Wednesday night at Daikin Park following a two-game absence due to right calf tightness. It doesn’t sound like a massive concern, especially with the extended All-Star break coming up in a few days.
  • TEX Starting Pitcher #22
    Jon Gray (wrist) will make a minor league rehab start on Wednesday for Triple-A Round Rock.
    Gray is working his way back from a fractured right wrist and figures to be ready to rejoin Texas’ pitching mix at some point before the end of July. The 33-year-old righty has been on the shelf since suffering the injury during the late stages of spring training.
  • BOS 3rd Baseman #2
    Red Sox manager Alex Cora told reporters there’s a good chance that Alex Bregman (quad) will be activated this weekend.
    Cora’s remarks back up his comments earlier in the day during a local radio interview on WEEI that Bregman was going to make it back before next week’s All-Star break. The 31-year-old third baseman figures to be activated later this week during Boston’s final first-half series against the Rays at Fenway Park.
  • WSH Starting Pitcher #32
    Trevor Williams has been diagnosed with a partially-torn UCL in his right elbow.
    Williams is scheduled to undergo an internal brace procedure next week. It’s possible his surgeon decide that he’ll need a full Tommy John reconstructive procedure at that time. The 33-year-old will miss the remainder of the 2025 season and will miss some additional time at the outset of next year.
  • CHC 3rd Baseman #6
    Matt Shaw is on the bench for Wednesday’s game against the Twins.
    Shaw takes a seat on Wednesday night amid a brutal 17-for-101 slump that includes only one homer and six steals over his last 30 games. It’ll be veteran speedster Jon Berti getting a shot at the hot corner. It feels inevitable that the Cubs are going to bring in some extra third base depth at the trade deadline in a few weeks.
