Los Angeles Angels infield prospect Christian Moore went 2-for-4 with a home run during their contest against Triple-A Las Vegas on Tuesday evening. Moore has been swinging a hot bat since earning the call to Triple-A. Over his first 19 games with Salt Lake, Moore has posted an impressive .342/.414/.539 slash line with four doubles, one triple, three home runs, and three stolen bases. During this stretch, he has tallied 15 RBI and scored 14 runs. The eighth overall pick in last year's MLB Draft opened the season with Double-A and held a .234/.342/.323 line. Last summer, Moore performed at an elite level at Double-A following the draft, posting a .911 OPS through 23 games. If the 22-year-old continues to produce at this level, he could reach the majors in the coming weeks.

Seattle Mariners infield prospect Colt Emerson went 1-for-5 with a home run during their contest against High-A Tri-City. Over his last five games, Emerson has begun to heat up at the plate. Over this stretch, he has posted a .300/.364/.600 line with a double, triple, and a home run. Prior to this recent surge, Emerson held a modest .200/.297/.271 line with just 17 total hits over his last 21 contests. His home run on Tuesday was also his first round-tripper since May 18. Through 53 games with High-A this season, Emerson has struggled at times, holding a .244/.341/.378 line with five doubles and five home runs. Given his lack of consistent success at High-A this season, fantasy managers should expect the No. 19-ranked prospect in the sport to spend most of the season at this level. If he continues to turn the corner, he could earn a late-season taste of Double-A.

Arizona Diamondbacks catching prospect Adrian Del Castillo went 2-for-5 with a home run in his first game off the Triple-A injured list on Tuesday. The young backstop has been dealing with a shoulder injury since the end of March. He recently began a rehab assignment in the Arizona Complex League, where he posted a .310/.434.,690 slash line across 12 contests. However, in his first game off the IL with Reno, he would launch his fourth long ball of the season. Last summer, Del Castillo spent most of his season with Triple-A and even earned a taste of the majors. With Triple-A, Del Castillo held a strong .312/.399/.603 slash line with 26 round-trippers. In 25 games with the Diamondbacks, the No. 6-ranked prospect in the system held a .313/.368/.525 line with four home runs. He should be in the mix to return to the majors in the coming weeks.

San Diego Padres starting pitcher Dylan Cease blanked the Los Angeles Dodgers over seven innings of work in his team's 11-1 home win on Tuesday. The veteran allowed three hits and notched a season-high in walks (five) and strikeouts (11). Cease was a little wild in this one, though; he also generated 24 whiffs for an excellent 39% CSW. Despite a good bit of traffic on the base paths during the middle innings of his outing, he kept a dangerous Dodgers lineup off the board. The Georgia native improved to 2-5, picking up his first win in well over two months (Apr. 2). He'll look to keep it rolling the next time he toes the rubber -- on the road against these very same Dodgers early next week.

Chicago Cubs catching prospect Moises Ballesteros went 2-for-5 with a solo home run against Triple-A Louisville on Tuesday. Ballesteros got the scoring started in the bottom of the first inning with a 416-foot blast to right field. The 21-year-old came up for a brief stint with the big league club and had only a .466 OPS in 16-at at-bats. He's posted strong numbers all season at Triple-A, however, hitting .337/.389/.507 with an impressive 18:28 BB:K. Ballesteros played DH in all five games in the majors, and there's a chance he is called up again at some point later this summer.

Los Angeles Angels starting pitcher Jose Soriano tossed seven innings of one-run ball, but did not factor into Tuesday's 2-1 win against the Athletics. The 26-year-old yielded two hits and two walks, striking out 12 in the dominant outing. Soriano landed 71 of 110 pitches for strikes, and induced an eye-popping 22 swings and misses for an elite 42% CSW. He yielded nary a hit through five innings, but the A's got to him in the sixth when Brent Rooker doubled home teammate Max Schuemann, who walked three batters prior. Still, it was a fantastic showing for him, as he easily set a new season-high in strikeouts. He's had issues with free passes this season, inflating his WHIP (1.50), but holds a respectable 3.86 ERA through 14 appearances (79 1/3 innings) and one of the best ground ball rates in the league (66.7%).

Texas Rangers outfielder Evan Carter went 3-for-5 with a home run and three RBI in his team's 16-4 win against the Minnesota Twins. The Tennessee native also drew a walk, singled twice, and scored four runs in the rout. Carter homered for the second time in as many games when he blasted his third of the season -- a two-run shot -- off Twins' reliever Justin Topa in the top of the sixth inning. That'd make it 10-3 Rangers, but Carter wasn't done yet -- singling home teammate Corey Seager to drive in his third run of the contest two innings later. The 22-year-old has three hits in back-to-back outings and logged another two batted balls in excess of 100 MPH. He's scored and plated five runs over the last two games, and the recent hot stretch has brought his average up to .255 (13-for-51) through 17 appearances.

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge went 2-for-5 with a home run and three RBI in Tuesday's 10-2 win against the Kansas City Royals. He added a single and struck out twice. The superstar slugger hit a monster two-run bomb off Royals' pitcher Noah Cameron in the top of the first inning, leaving the bat at 117.9 MPH and traveling 469 feet. He also singled a run home in the top of the sixth. Judge is amid an incredible season at the plate, slashing a ludicrous .396/.491/.776 with 24 home runs, 17 doubles, 58 RBI, 63 runs scored, and five steals. Furthermore, he leads the league in virtually every expected statistic and quality of contact metric, and holds a walk rate (15.3%) in the top 4% of hitters. We're beginning to run thin on superlatives for him.

New York Yankees starting pitcher Max Fried yielded six hits and two earned runs over seven innings in Tuesday's 10-2 win over the Kansas City Royals. He struck out four and walked none -- improving to a stellar 9-1 record through 14 appearances this season. The former No. 7 overall pick fired 61 of 91 pitches for strikes and picked up 12 whiffs (eight with his fastball) to notch his tenth quality start. Fried has been exemplary in 2025, sporting a pristine 1.84 ERA, 0.93 WHIP, and 81:18 K:BB ratio through 88 innings. He's allowed two or fewer earned runs in all but one start. The 31-year-old lefty will look to continue dealing in his next outing, which should come early next week on the road against the Boston Red Sox.

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Logan Gilbert (elbow) turned in a great rehab start in Tuesday's 2-1 win with Triple-A Tacoma. Gilbert pitched five scoreless innings, allowing one hit and one walk with six strikeouts on 72 pitches. The 28-year-old has been on the injured list since the end of April with a right elbow flexor strain. As for his next steps, manager Dan Wilson said, "We're just kind of reassessing after each start, but we'll see". The Mariners have dealt with several rotation injuries this season, so they will gladly welcome their ace back when he is ready. The good news is that Gilbert has upped his pitch count in each of his rehab outings. Fantasy managers should look for more definitive news as to when he may rejoin the Mariners, but it seems as though he is close.

It wasn't a clean outing, but Detroit Tigers relief pitcher Will Vest picked up his 11th save of the season in Tuesday's 5-3 win over the Orioles. Vest came in to pitch the bottom of the ninth inning up by three. He allowed a leadoff home run to Jordan Westburg but then got the next three hitters out, ending the game with a strikeout. The 30-year-old has emerged out of nowhere as the Tigers primary option for saves this season, converting all but two save opportunities with five wins, a 1.89 ERA, a 0.93 WHIP, and a 9.18 K/9 rate in 33 1/3 innings of work. Tommy Kahnle and Tyler Holton have also seen a few save opportunities along the way, but Vest seems to be the clear option and has been deployed for multiple innings somewhat frequently, making him a solid fantasy option.

Detroit Tigers first baseman Spencer Torkelson continued to hit for high-end power in Tuesday's 5-3 win over the Orioles. Torkelson went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run and two strikeouts. The 25-year-old turned on a fifth-inning Cade Povich fastball, getting it just over Colton Cowser's glove in straight-away center. The former top fantasy prospect is now providing the power fantasy managers had dreamed of, slashing .237/.341/.509 with 16 HR and 47 RBI in 273 plate appearances. He should continue to be a solid fantasy option while hitting in one of baseball's most surprisingly productive offenses.

From RotoBaller

Chicago Cubs outfielder Ian Happ had a solid game at the plate in Tuesday's 8-4 win over the Phillies. Happ went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, a two-run HR, three RBI, and two walks. The 30-year-old lined a third-inning Mick Abel hanging off-speed offering into the right-field seats for a solo shot and put the Cubs ahead in the sixth inning with a two-run moonshot off of Taijuan Walker. Happ has put up decent offensive numbers overall, slashing .255/.345/.397 with seven HR, 42 runs scored, 29 RBI, and three stolen bases in 275 plate appearances. His power decrease could be due to him not hitting the ball as hard this season. However, he should continue to provide fantasy value while hitting at the top of one of baseball's stronger lineups.

New York Yankees catcher Austin Wells had a great game at the plate in Tuesday's 10-2 win over the Royals. Wells went 2-for-5 with a double, a three-run home run, five RBI, and a strikeout. The 25-year-old skyed a fourth-inning Noah Cameron changeup just over the right-field fence to put the Yanks up 5-1. Wells has provided power and RBI from a fantasy perspective, slashing .227/.294/.476 with 11 HR, 41 RBI, and three stolen bases in 211 plate appearances. This profile makes him a solid option in points leagues, and while his batting average is a detriment in roto leagues, his exposure to a strong lineup should continue to help with his counting stats.

St. Louis Cardinals utilityman Brendan Donovan (toe) exited Tuesday's 10-9 loss to the Blue Jays in the ninth inning due to "left toe discomfort". Donovan, who batted third and played left field, went 0-for-3 with a strikeout. He was also hit by a pitch. Donovan explained after the game that his toe had started bothering him during the game, and while he wanted to finish out the game, the team felt it was best to replace him defensively in the ninth inning. He did downplay the discomfort, but fantasy managers should keep an eye on the team's lineups in the coming days. The 28-year-old has had a solid overall season offensively, slashing .310/.379/.440 with four home runs, 26 RBI, and three stolen bases in 278 plate appearances.

From RotoBaller

Philadelphia Phillies pitching prospect Andrew Painter allowed six runs on eight hits and no walks with four strikeouts across five innings in Tuesday's 8-1 loss against Triple-A Worcester. Painter took the loss and conceded a lot of hard contact in this outing, with a 92.8 average exit velocity. The whiffs weren't quite there either for the 22-year-old with only seven on 44 swings. Painter has stumbled a bit in June as he's allowed 10 runs in nine innings. He ranks as the number five overall prospect on MLB.com and will likely make his MLB debut at some point this season.

From RotoBaller

New York Mets pitching prospect Blade Tidwell allowed three runs on four hits and one walk while striking out five in Tuesday's 5-3 loss against Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. Tidwell came in to pitch after opener Dedniel Nuez and took the loss as he surrendered a good amount of hard contact, allowing a 91.3 average exit velocity. He was able to generate 10 whiffs on 38 swings and deliver in the strikeout category. This start brings the 24-year-old's season ERA to 4.14 to go with a 1.21 WHIP and a 69:24 K:BB in 58.2 innings. Tidwell made his MLB debut on May 4 and coughed up six runs in 3.2 innings, but we will likely see him in the majors again later in the summer.

New York Yankees infielder Jazz Chisholm Jr. (neck) left Tuesday's game early against the hosting Kansas City Royals at Kauffman Stadium with "neck tightness," according to the team. Chisholm was replaced in the seventh inning at third base by Oswald Peraza after he stole a base in the sixth inning. The 27-year-old went 1-for-4 with a double, a run scored and a strikeout in addition to his 10th steal of the season before leaving in the eventual 10-2 victory. We should know more about Chisholm's status after he's put through tests, but hopefully he won't need a second trip to the injured list this year. Peraza would be the obvious candidate to see additional playing time at the hot corner in the Bronx if Chisholm misses any more time. Chisholm came into Tuesday's game hitting just .214, but his power/speed combo in New York's potent offense makes him fantasy relevant in all leagues.

From RotoBaller

Chicago Cubs outfield prospect Owen Caissie went 1-for-3 with a home run and three RBI in Tuesday's 8-5 loss against Triple-A Louisville. Caissie has gotten off to a blazing start in June, hitting .345/.441/.586 two home runs in 29 at-bats. The 22-year-old's prodigious raw power has been on display all season, with his quality of contact ranking among the best in Triple-A. His 18.6 percent barrel rate ranks sixth best. A concern with Caissie has been the prevalent swing-and-miss with a 33.5 percent strikeout rate. He is currently ranked as the number 46 prospect on MLB.com. The Cubs' outfield is pretty crowded for the time being, but an injury could open the door for Caissie at some point this season. He'd make for a solid speculative add in most formats.

Detroit Tigers outfielder Matt Vierling (shoulder) resumed throwing this week and is completing all other baseball activities on a daily basis, according to MLive's Evan Woodbery. Vierling was placed on the 10-day injured list on May 27 with right-shoulder inflammation and he received an injection last Thursday. The 28-year-old has been bothered by his shoulder injury all year and was only able to play in four games before going back on the IL. In four games played this year, he's gone 2-for-11 with two RBI and a strikeout for the first-place Tigers. It remains to be seen when Vierling will be able to return or what role he'll even have when he does rejoin the big-league roster, but in addition to the outfield, he has the ability to fill in at the hot corner and should at least play against left-handed pitchers. He had a career-high 16 long balls and 57 RBI in 144 games for Detroit last year.
