Detroit Tigers ace Tarik Skubal spun his latest gem in a 3-0 victory over the Minnesota Twins on Sunday. Skubal fired seven innings of one-hit ball and tied a career high with 13 strikeouts against one walk to improve to 10-2. The reigning AL Cy Young winner threw the 15 fastest pitches of the night, all of which clocked in at 97.9 mph or higher, and generated 22 swinging strikes. Having already totaled five starts of double-digit strikeouts, Skubal leads the majors with 138 over 109 innings. The left-hander has given out a meager 14 free passes while posting a 2.15 ERA and a league-best 0.83 WHIP. Skubal will get the ball next in a road start against the Cleveland Guardians on Saturday. He was spectacular in a win over the Guardians on May 25, firing a complete-game, two-hit shutout with 13 strikeouts.

The Minnesota Twins have designated infielder Jonah Bride for assignment, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports. This is the second time this season Bride has been in DFA limbo. The Miami Marlins designated him in mid-April before trading him to the Twins for cash considerations. While Bride was versatile enough to see time at both corner infield positions, second base, and even as a mop-up duty pitcher with the Twins, he hit just .214/.282/.243 with three RBI in 78 plate appearances. Between Miami and Minnesota, Bride has batted an abysmal .170/.248/.188 in 125 homer-less trips to the plate this season. Bride started at third on Sunday, but Brooks Lee has gotten the majority of action at the hot corner with Royce Lewis (hamstring) on the 10-day injured list since June 14. Lewis could return on Tuesday to take Bride's place on Minnesota's roster.

Detroit Tigers reliever Will Vest pitched a 1-2-3 ninth inning Sunday to finish off a 3-0 win over the Minnesota Twins. Vest struck out one and needed only eight pitches on the way to his 13th save in 16 chances. The 30-year-old right-hander now owns a 2.37 ERA with 42:10 K:BB and a 0.95 WHIP over 38 frames. Vest is Detroit's preferred option to close games, while Tommy Kahnle is next in line. The Tigers used Kahnle in the eighth on Sunday, and he threw a scoreless inning to tally his 11th hold. Kahnle has eight saves, the latest of which came on June 4.

Houston Astros closer Josh Hader made quick work of the Chicago Cubs to secure save No. 23 in a 2-0 win Sunday. Hader pitched a 1-2-3 ninth inning with one strikeout over just 11 pitches to clinch a series win for the Astros. The shutdown left-hander has converted all of his save attempts this season while pitching to a 1.67 ERA with a 0.69 WHIP and 57:7 K:BB. Hader has been automatic this year and is closing in on his sixth 30-save campaign.

Miami Marlins reliever Ronny Henriquez closed out the team's 6-4 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks on Sunday with a perfect ninth inning. Henriquez retired the side in order on 13 pitches and struck out one to collect his third save. The 25-year-old has gotten the call in two of the Marlins' past three save situations. Calvin Faucher, who leads the team with eight saves, pitched the eighth inning Sunday against the top of the Diamondbacks' order. It didn't work out, as Faucher gave up two earned runs on three hits. He's likely still the Marlins' top choice for saves with Henriquez next in line. Henriquez has logged a 2.93 ERA with 55:16 K:BB, a 1.25 WHIP, and 11 holds in 40 innings.

San Diego Padres closer Robert Suarez came on in a save situation Sunday and ended up taking the loss in a 3-2 final against the Cincinnati Reds. Suarez entered the ninth with a 2-1 lead and allowed four singles, a walk, and two runs while retiring just one hitter. Reds outfielder Will Benson lined a walk-off single to right field to give Suarez his fourth blown save and send him to 2-3 on the season. Suarez is tied for the league lead with 23 saves and has registered a 1.10 WHIP with 36 strikeouts against 12 walks. However, a handful of poor performances have led to a so-so 3.89 ERA in 34 2/3 innings. The 34-year-old will be glad when June ends, as he has been tattooed for nine earned runs on 14 hits over 10 1/3 frames this month.
From RotoBaller
Los Angeles Angels closer Kenley Jansen suffered his first blown save of the season Sunday in a 7-4 loss to the Washington Nationals. Jansen came in to pitch the top of the ninth with a 4-3 lead and proceeded to allow one run on two hits with an intentional walk and a strikeout. The Angels would go on to lose in the 11th. Jansen had converted all 15 save attempts before Sunday, but he did so despite putting up uninspiring numbers. Through 28 2/3 innings this season, the 37-year-old has posted career worsts in ERA (4.40), strikeouts per nine (8.16 K/9), and WHIP (1.36). That output isn't indicative of a lockdown closer, though Jansen does have a secure hold on the Angels' job.

Detroit Tigers outfielder Kerry Carpenter (hamstring) left the team's 3-0 win over the Minnesota Twins on Sunday with a right hamstring injury. Carpenter will undergo an MRI on Monday, according to Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic. For his part, Carpenter is optimistic that it's not a serious problem. "It feels similar to the last time I had a little issue with it," he said. "The staff here has done a great job of getting me back pretty quickly. We'll see how it goes, but I think we're all pretty optimistic about it." Carpenter tweaked his hamstring in late April and has played through it without requiring a trip to the 10-day injured list. Before exiting Sunday, Carpenter starred with a home run, a triple, and two RBI in a 2-for-3 night. The 27-year-old is batting .257/.285/.494 with 16 homers, 32 RBI, and 40 runs scored over 280 plate appearances.
From RotoBaller
Washington Nationals closer Kyle Finnegan (1-2) earned his first win of the season in a 7-4 defeat of the Los Angeles Angels on Sunday. Finnegan, who hadn't made an appearance since Wednesday, threw three innings of scoreless, hitless ball with two strikeouts and two walks. He entered in the ninth inning and wound up slamming the door on the Angels in the 11th after Washington took a three-run lead. Finnegan tossed 30 pitches in his second-longest outing of the season and lowered his ERA to 2.61 across 31 frames. The 33-year-old also boasts a 1.16 WHIP with 25:10 K:BB and 18 saves in 23 chances.
From RotoBaller
Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Ranger Suarez earned his seventh win of the season in a 2-1 victory over the Braves on Sunday. He allowed one run on four hits and one walk while striking out eight over seven innings. This was his fifth consecutive start of at least seven innings pitched with two earned runs or fewer. The 29-year-old was one of the best pitchers in baseball during the first half of 2024 before falling off later in the season, but it looks like he has returned to that elite form here in 2025. After allowing seven earned runs in his first start of the season on May 4, he's allowed only nine runs in his ten starts since. The lefty will carry a 2.00 ERA into his next start, currently set to be against the Reds.

Detroit Tigers outfielder Kerry Carpenter (hamstring) left Sunday's 3-0 victory over the Twins in what is likely a hamstring injury, reports Cody Stavenhagen of The Athletic. He pulled into third base injured after hitting an RBI triple in the fifth inning, and was immediately removed by a pinch runner. He was already playing through a sore hamstring and was wearing a compression sleeve, so it's very possible that he injured it further. The slugger was on his way to having a huge day at the plate, as he was 2-for-3 with a home run and triple. Expect further updates on the extent of his injury after he undergoes further tests after the game.
From RotoBaller
Los Angeles Dodgers second baseman Miguel Rojas (finger) left Sunday's game against the Royals in the eighth inning after injuring his finger on a stolen base attempt in the seventh inning. After the game, Rojas said he won't need a trip to the injured list and that it was just a bad jammed finger, reports David Vassegh of SportsNet LA. The player's word isn't always the most reliable source of information, as it ultimately isn't up to them whether they play through the injury or not, but it's encouraging to see that he isn't concerned. Even if he doesn't need an IL stint, the 36-year-old could see some extended time on the bench while he recovers.
From RotoBaller
Baltimore Orioles outfielder Cedric Mullins is drawing trade interest from the Houston Astros, who are aggressively looking for a left-handed bat on the market. It would be a boost for Houston's offense, as their outfield currently consists of Jake Meyers, Cooper Hummel, and Cam Smith. Mullins is batting only .213 with a .295 on-base percentage, but he brings some pop and speed to the lineup with 12 home runs and eight stolen bases. The speedster is just one year removed from stealing 32 bases in 2024, and a change of scenery could potentially wake him up out of his current slump.
From RotoBaller
Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Oneil Cruz has been in a slump recently and was dropped in the batting order. He fell to sixth in the order on Sunday, but maybe that helped spark his bat. Cruz hit a two-run home run off right-hander Frankie Montas in the first inning. He would hit another two-run shot in the seventh inning for his first multi-hit game in nearly a month. Cruz finished this game 2-for-4 with two homers, four RBI, and two runs scored in the blowout win over the New York Mets. It has been a struggle at times with Cruz, but fantasy managers should continue to stick with him.
From RotoBaller
Colorado Rockies relief pitcher Tyler Kinley got a rare save chance during Sunday's game against the Milwaukee Brewers. Kinley isn't normally called upon for saves, but Seth Halvorsen and Victor Vodnik were already used earlier in the game. The Rockies handed Kinley the ball in the 11th inning with a one-run lead. The veteran right-hander tossed a scoreless inning with two strikeouts to record his third save of the season. Fantasy managers shouldn't read too much into this one. Kinley has struggled throughout most of the season, so he'll probably remain in lower leverage situations going forward.
From RotoBaller
Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Justin Wrobleski came in as the bulk reliever during Sunday's game against the Kansas City Royals. This strategy has been working for the Dodgers, so they will continue using it. Wrobleski followed opener Lou Trivino and was nearly untouchable on the mound. He tossed six scoreless innings, allowing three hits, and striking out six batters in the win. Wrobleski has tossed four straight outings with two earned runs or less. The 24-year-old could start picking up steam here soon in fantasy leagues with the way he's throwing the ball.
From RotoBaller
Texas Rangers starting pitcher Jack Leiter has been roughed up on the mound lately, but put together a strong performance versus the Mariners. The right-hander tossed six innings allowing one earned run on seven hits while striking out seven batters in the no-decision. This is the first time that Leiter has allowed three earned runs or less in a start since June 5. He'll take a 4.29 ERA, 1.30 WHIP, and 58/32 K/BB ratio into his next start against the San Diego Padres. Leiter hasn't produced enough quality outings lately to warrant streaming in anything more than deep leagues.
From RotoBaller
New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge (back) was reportedly dealing with back soreness heading into Sunday's game against the Athletics. It didn't seem to be bothering him too much as he produced a big game. Judge took right-hander Luis Severino deep in the fourth inning with a two-run shot. He would later hit another home run which would be his 30th of the season. Judge finished this game 2-for-4 with two homers, four RBI, three runs scored, and a walk in the win. He might serve as the DH for a few more games until his back is better, but that issue isn't going to slow him down at the plate.
From RotoBaller
Seattle Mariners catcher Mitch Garver made his return to the lineup after missing a few games due to a jaw injury. He came ready to play during Sunday's game against the Texas Rangers. Garver tied the game in the sixth inning with an RBI single. He would collect another RBI with a hit in the 10th inning. Finally, Garver would put the game out of reach with a two-run home run off right-hander Cole Winn in the 12th inning. He finished this game 3-for-6 with a homer and four RBI in the win. Garver has been fairly quiet this season and doesn't play enough to warrant rostering in most fantasy formats. However, this was a good performance by Garver, so maybe he'll earn more playing time.
From RotoBaller
Toronto Blue Jays closer Jeff Hoffman mowed down the Boston Red Sox to earn his 18th save in a 5-3 win on Sunday. Hoffman entered in the bottom of the ninth and struck out the side on just 14 pitches. It was Hoffman's first save since June 10. The 32-year-old stumbled through a few awful outings in May, but he has righted the ship in June with nine innings of two-run ball. Overall, Hoffman has logged a 4.98 ERA with 48 strikeouts, 10 walks, a 1.08 WHIP, and four blown saves across 34 1/3 innings.
