    Ezequiel Tovar Fri Jul 11 8:50am CT

    Ezequiel Tovar (oblique) was the designated hitter for the Albuquerque Isotopes on Thursday and was 0-for-4 with one strikeout. Tovar is now 2-for-20 with four strikeouts in July as he continues to rehab from his injury back in early June. On the season for the Colorado Rockies, he is slashing .258/.301/.406 with three home runs, 14 runs scored, 10 RBI, and two stolen bases in 138 plate appearances. It has been a disappointing showing from Tovar thus far in 2025, primarily due to his injuries, but he was coming off a season in 2024 in which he had 26 home runs, and slashed .269/.295/.469. The Rockies have not yet announced, nor has it been reported, how many more rehab games they would like Tovar to play before calling him back up. However, with the All-Star break right around the corner, Tovar will likely return sometime after the break.

    Bryan De La Cruz Fri Jul 11 8:40am CT

    New York Yankees outfielder Bryan De La Cruz (oblique) remained out of the starting lineup for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barres on Thursday. De La Cruz is currently on the 7-day injured list with an oblique issue. The hope is that he'll be able to return soon, but there is no clear timetable for his return. Since joining the Yankees organization, De La Cruz is slashing .256/.333/.452 with nine home runs, 26 RBI, and six steals in 47 games. He figures to be in the mix as a depth piece if the Yankees need help down the stretch. De La Cruz isn't someone worth rostering in fantasy formats right now.

    Justin Slaten Fri Jul 11 8:30am CT

    Boston Red Sox relief pitcher Justin Slaten (shoulder) is currently not throwing, but is instead doing plyometric exercises. It appears the Red Sox have backed off the throwing program and are focusing on building strength in Slaten's shoulder. The right-hander has been sidelined since late May due to right shoulder inflammation. Slaten doesn't appear to be close to returning to the bullpen. He figures to need multiple weeks of throwing before getting back into the mix. Slaten isn't worth holding in fantasy leagues with his return unclear right now.

    Alex Bregman Fri Jul 11 8:20am CT

    Boston Red Sox third baseman Alex Bregman (quadriceps) will be activated at some point this weekend in the Red Sox's four-game series against the Tampa Bay Rays. Per Ian Browne, a club reporter for MLB.com, it appears that Bregman will play twice this weekend at Fenway. Alex Cora wouldn't specify if it is Friday and Sunday or Saturday and Sunday. Regardless, this is excellent news for the Red Sox, baseball, and fantasy managers. Bregman has been sidelined since late May due to a strained right quad, and it appears he will skip a rehab assignment before returning to the hot corner for the Red Sox. The Red Sox have been on fire lately, winning nine of their last 10 games, but still sit four and a half games back in the AL East race, so getting their best hitter back in the lineup should be a step up for the offense as a whole. On the season, Bregman is slashing .299/.385/.553 with 11 home runs, 32 runs scored, 35 RBI, and one stolen base in 226 plate appearances.

    Nestor Cortes Fri Jul 11 8:20am CT

    Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Nestor Cortes (elbow) continued his rehab work with High-A Wisconsin on Thursday. The southpaw tossed four scoreless innings, allowing three hits, zero walks, and two strikeouts. Cortes only threw 54 pitches during this outing, but the Brewers don't want to push him too hard this early into rehabbing. Afterwards, Cortes said he'd have at least one more rehab start, but will probably end up pitching two games before rejoining the Brewers rotation. He figures to be ready to return before the end of July.

    Carson Williams Fri Jul 11 7:50am CT

    Tampa Bay Rays shortstop prospect Carson Williams continued to shine on Thursday, delivering a two-out RBI triple in the fourth inning to tie the game against the Nashville Sounds. The triple was the only hit of his four at-bats in Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Sounds. After a cold start to the season, hitting just .173 through May, Baseball America's preseason No. 11 overall prospect has found his footing. Since June 1, Williams is batting .291 with three doubles, two triples, and nine home runs, showcasing the loud tools that make him one of the most exciting prospects in baseball. The 22-year-old still carries a concerning 35.3% strikeout rate, but his ability to impact the game with both power and athleticism remains undeniable. The Rays could be tempted to give him a look in the second half, but Taylor Walls should continue to block Williams' path to the lineup with his elite defense. Some additional seasoning in Triple-A should benefit Williams in the long run. Williams remains a high-upside stash in dynasty formats, with watch-list appeal in redraft leagues depending on Tampa Bay's trade deadline moves.

    Dylan Beavers Fri Jul 11 7:40am CT

    Baltimore Orioles outfield prospect Dylan Beavers is heating up at Triple-A Norfolk. Through 32 plate appearances in July, the 23-year-old is slashing .357/.438/.607 with 10 hits and two home runs in 28 at-bats. Beavers saw just six games at Triple-A last season after spending most of the year at Double-A Bowie. He's taken a big step forward in 2025. The former first-round pick has already tallied ten home runs and 20 stolen bases before the All-Star break, flashing across-the-board fantasy potential. With the Orioles expected to sell at the trade deadline, Beavers is making a strong case for a second-half call-up. He should already be rostered in dynasty formats and is firmly on the redraft radar if Baltimore opens a spot.

    Kristian Campbell Fri Jul 11 7:30am CT

    Boston Red Sox second-base prospect Kristian Campbell was demoted three weeks ago to regain confidence and fine-tune his approach at the plate. In his 16th game at Triple-A Worcester, he finally notched his first home run. He went 1-for-5 with a three-run blast in Wednesday's 14-9 loss to the Rochester Red Wings. The overall results since Campbell's demotion remain a concern. He has produced just five extra-base hits across 72 plate appearances while striking out at a 31.9% clip, which is up from 27.4% during his time in Boston. He entered 2025 as one of baseball's most hyped prospects and showed flashes of his potential early on, though it's clear that more development is needed. The 23-year-old remains a firm hold in dynasty formats, but redraft managers can safely move on until he turns things around.

    Josh Jung Fri Jul 11 6:00am CT

    Texas Rangers third baseman Josh Jung went 1-for-4 with a single during their contest against Triple-A Albuquerque on Thursday evening. Since being demoted to Triple-A Round Rock, the former first-round pick has tallied at least one hit in each of his five games. During this stretch, Jung has posted one multi-hit game and tallied just one extra-base hit. The Rangers optioned Jung to Triple-A earlier in July after he posted a modest .152/.200/.212 line over his last 26 games in the major leagues. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his progression with Triple-A, as he should be in the mix to return to Texas quite soon. Before his slump, Jung was enjoying a productive campaign, posting a .283/.328/.450 line with seven doubles and seven home runs. For now, he is only worth stashing in deeper AL-only redraft leagues.

    Alexis Diaz Fri Jul 11 5:50am CT

    The Los Angeles Dodgers have optioned relief pitcher Alexis Diaz back to Triple-A Oklahoma City. This transaction opened a spot for Tyler Glasnow, who returned from the injured list. He did not make an appearance in his first stint with the Dodgers. The Dodgers acquired Diaz from the Reds in a trade earlier in the regular season. The hard-throwing right-hander had a difficult start to the campaign, posting a high 12.00 ERA and a 2.17 WHIP through his first six innings. During this stretch, he did not tally a save. However, during the 2023 and 2024 campaigns, Diaz primarily served as Cincinnati's go-to option in the ninth inning. In 2023, Diaz was named to the NL All-Star team and held an overall 3.07 ERA with a 1.19 WHIP and 37 saves. He took a slight step back in 2024, tallying just 28 saves with a 3.99 ERA. The right-hander could eventually find a role in Los Angeles, but for now, he is not worth rostering in any redraft formats.

    Tre' Morgan Fri Jul 11 5:40am CT

    Tampa Bay Rays first base prospect Tre' Morgan went 2-for-4 with a home run during their contest against Triple-A Nashville. This was Morgan's third multi-hit game over his last five contests. While his power production has yet to show the top level of the minor leagues, the first baseman has shown elite eye at the plate. Through his first 41 games with Triple-A Norfolk, the No. 5-ranked prospect in Tampa Bay has posted a .287 AVG with a stellar .428 OBP. He has struck out just 42 times and drawn 32 walks. Last summer, Morgan split time between Low-A, High-A, and Double-A. Through 100 games, he posted a remarkable .324/.408/.423 line with 23 doubles, 10 home runs, and a 48:48 K:BB. If Morgan can continue to find his power swing, he could earn a late-season call to Tampa Bay.

    Lazaro Montes Fri Jul 11 5:30am CT

    Seattle Mariners outfield prospect Lazaro Montes continued to hit for power on Thursday evening. Facing Double-A Tula, the budding star went 1-for-4 with a home run and two strikeouts. This his second long ball over his last three games. Since earning the call to join Double-A Arkansas, Montes has posted an impressive .273/.388/.636 slash line with one double and five long balls. The No. 29-ranked prospect on MLB.com began the campaign with High-A but needed just 67 games to prove he was ready for a promotion. Through this stint, Montes held a .269/.387/.572 slash line with 12 doubles and 18 home runs. In total, Montes' 23 long balls this season tie with the most home runs in the minor leagues alongside Ryan Ward of the Dodgers. Montes is worth closely monitoring as he is developing into one of the best hitters in the minor leagues.

    Kyren Paris Fri Jul 11 5:20am CT

    The Los Angeles Angels have placed infielder Kyren Paris (undisclosed) on the 7-day injured list at Triple-A Salt Lake. The team did not specify the injury. Paris has yet to play in a game for Triple-A since July 3. The 23-year-old was very productive in the major leagues during his first 15 games of the campaign when he posted a remarkable .366/.458/.805 slash line with one double, one triple, five home runs, and five stolen bases. However, after this surge, Paris would post a .106/.165/.176 line over his next 29 games with the Angels. Through 29 games with Triple-A, Paris has seen these struggles continue, as he has held a modest .228/.363/.436 with four home runs and a 32:18 K:BB. Fantasy managers in deeper formats should monitor his progression as he could be in the mix to return to the majors later in the second half.

    Robby Snelling Fri Jul 11 5:20am CT

    Miami Marlins left-handed pitching prospect Robby Snelling tossed five shutout frames in his return to Triple-A Jacksonville on Thursday evening. Snelling was recently promoted from Double-A after enjoying a productive first half. The No. 3-ranked prospect in the system made his Triple-A debut last season but appeared in just one contest. He looked quite strong in this start as he allowed just four hits and struck out three. He struggled with his command, as he allowed three free passes. Earlier in the campaign, the left-hander logged 72 1/3 innings with Double-A to the tune of a 3.61 ERA and a 1.22 WHIP. Fantasy managers in deeper formats should monitor his development, as he could contend for a late-season MLB debut if he continues to find success at the top level of the minor leagues.

    Spencer Strider Fri Jul 11 1:14am CT

    Braves' SP Spencer Strider recorded 11 strikeouts in 6.2 innings in a 5-4 loss to Las Vegas on Thursday, Jul. 10.

    Adolis Garcia Fri Jul 11 12:20am CT

    Texas Rangers outfielder Adolis Garcia went two-for-five with a home run, an additional run scored, and three RBI in his team's 11-4 win over the Los Angeles Angels on Thursday night. Garcia has had a subpar season overall, slashing .231/.276/.389 with 11 home runs, 53 RBI, 32 runs scored, and nine stolen bases in 359 plate appearances. However, there may be reason to believe he's a candidate to bounce back in the second half. Garcia has cut his strikeout rate to a career-best 24.5%, and his .254 xBA and .470 xSLG both point to some poor luck. The 32-year-old veteran still earns everyday playing time in Texas and could be an overlooked source of power and speed down the stretch.

    Mick Abel Fri Jul 11 12:10am CT

    Philadelphia Phillies pitching prospect Mick Abel spun a gem against Triple-A Syracuse on Thursday, allowing just one hit and one walk across six scoreless innings. He struck out four. Abel made his first start at Triple-A since being optioned on July 4, and it was a beauty. The right-hander wasn't as effective over his last five starts with the Phillies, posting a 6.63 ERA, 1.53 WHIP, and just a 3.5 percent strikeout-minus-walk rate in 19 innings. He wasn't missing any bats, and his command had escaped him a bit. Abel still has a wide arsenal with multiple pitches grading out above average by Stuff+, and there will likely be an opportunity for him to rejoin the Phillies later this season. That could come in a starter or relief role, with the latter limiting his fantasy appeal.

    Nick Lodolo Fri Jul 11 12:10am CT

    Cincinnati Reds starter Nick Lodolo earned his sixth win of the season in his team's 6-0 win over the Miami Marlins on Thursday. Lodolo threw six scoreless innings, striking out four while allowing three hits and zero walks. In 106 2/3 innings (19 starts), Lodolo has posted a 3.38 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 97 strikeouts. His 5% walk rate is a career-best, but his 21.9% strikeout rate is the lowest of his career as well. Lodolo entered the night with a 4.14 xERA, which points to some likely regression in his profile. Even still, he's a solid mid-tier option in fantasy with room for upside if he can re-discover some of the strikeout potential he flashed at earlier points in his career.

    Robert Suarez Fri Jul 11 12:00am CT

    San Diego Padres closer Robert Suarez worked a perfect ninth inning in his team's 4-3 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks on Thursday to record his MLB-best 27th save of the season. The veteran right-hander struggled to a 7.84 ERA in 10 1/3 innings in June, but he's bounced back to convert all four of his save chances so far in July. For the season, Suarez has thrown 39 2/3 innings with a 3.63 ERA, 1.07 WHIP, and 42 strikeouts. The Padres have a deep bullpen, but manager Mike Shildt has shown a preference for sticking with Suarez even when occasional struggles arise.

    Felix Bautista Thu Jul 10 11:50pm CT

    Baltimore Orioles closer Felix Bautista notched his 18th save of the season in his team's 3-1 win over the New York Mets on Thursday, working a scoreless ninth inning without allowing a baserunner. The 30-year-old right-hander got off to a relatively slow start to the season, but he's been dominant of late. In his last 16 appearances dating back to May 31, Bautista has allowed just three hits and one earned run, striking out 27 in 16 innings pitched. For the season, Bautista has a 2.41 ERA and 1.05 WHIP with 48 strikeouts and 18 saves in 33 2/3 innings. He looks to be fully recovered from the Tommy John surgery that cost him the entire 2024 season, and as such is a high-level closer option for fantasy.
