Royals optioned RHP Eli Morgan to Triple-A Omaha.

The Royals have made only half of the transaction official so far, but Mitch Spence will take Morgan’s spot and start tonight’s game. Morgan pitched one scoreless inning in his three days with the team.
Christian Scott

NYM Starting Pitcher #45

Christian Scott will go on the injured list with an undisclosed injury, The Athletic reports.

The New York Post has confirmed, though the Mets aren’t letting anyone know what’s wrong. It’s supposed to be relatively minor. Jonah Tong could be recalled to fill in for him. Kodai Senga was expected to make another rehab start, but he could be activated early.
Spencer Strider

ATL Starting Pitcher #99

MLB.com’s Mark Bowman reported that Spencer Strider (elbow) has no ligament damage and there “aren’t any current concerns about him needing surgery.”

Strider is set to meet with Dr. Keith Meister, who performed Strider’s surgery in 2024, to “just provide an indication of what the next steps will be.” That means we should have a better idea of Strider’s timeline for recovery in a couple of days. Considering he wasn’t pitching at the same level we’re used to before this injury and is now dealing with, likely, a multi-week absence, he doesn’t need to be held in leagues without multiple IL spots.
Doug Nikhazy

CHC Starting Pitcher

Cubs designated LHP Doug Nikhazy for assignment.

Nikhazy was claimed off waivers from the White Sox at the end of April but had to be let go to make room on the 40-man roster for Yosver Zulueta. Nikhazy, who never spent any time on the major league roster, posted an 8.44 ERA in 26 2/3 innings at Triple-A for the Cubs in eight appearances (six starts). He will likely go unclaimed on waivers.
Yosver Zulueta

CHC Relief Pitcher #61

Cubs acquired RHP Yosver Zulueta from the Seattle Mariners for cash considerations.

Zulueta was designated for assignment on Wednesday and now has a new home. The 28-year-old has posted a 5.32 ERA and 25/11 K/BB ratio across 23 2/3 innings at the big-league level since 2024. He has been optioned to Triple-A Iowa.
Kyle Higashioka

TEX Catcher #11

Kyle Higashioka went 2-for-4 and hit a three-run homer against the Red Sox as the Rangers prevailed 6-4 on Sunday Night Baseball.

The homer off Connelly Early in the second just barely made it over the Green Monster for his fifth of the year. He had been 1-for-12 in four games since Danny Jansen went on the injured list.
Nathan Eovaldi

TEX Starting Pitcher #17

Nathan Eovaldi worked seven innings and allowed three runs to defeat the Red Sox on Sunday Night Baseball.

Eovaldi gave up two homers to Willson Contreras, but no one else did much damage. He allowed six hits, walked one and struck out six in all. It’s the seventh time in 14 starts this season that he’s completed seven innings. He’s now 6-7 with a 4.23 ERA, and he’s due for a home start against the Padres next weekend.
Jacob Latz

TEX Relief Pitcher #67

Jacob Latz recorded the final four outs for a save in a 6-4 game Sunday night against the Red Sox.

Latz struck out two while also getting a weak groundout and a foul popup. In five appearances in June, he’s pitched 7 1/3 scoreless innings with two hits allowed and 11 strikeouts, picking up four saves and a win in the process.
Connelly Early

BOS Starting Pitcher #71

Connelly Early gave up six runs and 11 hits in 4 2/3 innings against the Rangers to take a loss on Sunday Night Baseball.

Early also walked two in a really sloppy outing. He’s given up five homers and 12 runs over 14 2/3 innings in his last three starts, leaving him 5-5 with a 3.83 ERA on the season. Coming into June, he was 5-2 with a 2.95 ERA, though that was with peripherals that suggested the league would catch up to him at some point. He’ll remain in the rotation for now and face the Mariners next weekend.
Wyatt Langford

TEX Left Fielder #36

Wyatt Langford hit a leadoff homer, walked and scored a second run Sunday versus the Red Sox.

Langford drove in runs all three games against the Red Sox, including the team’s lone run on Friday. He finishes the series 6-for-13, raising his OPS from .606 to .682.

Though the Red Sox nearly mounted several comebacks, the Rangers did just enough to hold on for the win on Sunday Night Baseball, where Nathan Eovaldi's seven innings and lineup-wide contributions were the difference.
