Seven-run inning propels Rangers past Angels. Marcus Semien went 4-for-5 with an RBI and three runs scored and Adolis Garcia homered and had two hits and three RBIs as the Texas Rangers used a seven-run third inning to cruise to an 11-4 victory over the Los Angeles Angels on Thursday night. Corey Seager also had two hits and a walk and two RBIs and Evan Carter doubled and had two hits for Texas, which earned a split of the four-game series.

Walker Buehler reveals 'retirement' inner dialogue after win. The Boston Red Sox's hot streak continued Thursday as the club won its seventh straight game. Boston edged out the Tampa Bay Rays in their series opener, winning for the ninth time in the last 10 games. The Red Sox got six strong innings from starter Walker Buehler, who acknowledged the toll the last several seasons have taken. Buehler has endured four straight injury plagued seasons since his All-Star 2021 campaign for the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Jack Kochanowicz (P - LAA)
7/10/25 9:35 PM -
Angels' Jack Kochanowicz roughed up again in lopsided loss to Rangers. The Angels are the only team in baseball to have used the same five starting pitchers this season, a remarkable achievement considering the deluge of elbow and shoulder injuries that shelve many of the game's top arms every year. Kochanowicz gave up four straight singles in the first inning to put the Angels in a 2-0 hole. The 24-year-old right-hander seemed to recover with two strikeouts in a one-two-three second, but the third inning was a disaster, the Rangers sending 12 men to the plate during a seven-run, six-hit, three-walk, one-balk rally for a 9-0 lead.

Tyler Soderstrom (1B - Ath)
7/10/25 8:32 PM -
[Last Word on Sports] - Rumor: Pirates Might Be Sellers and Buyers at Trade Deadline. Pittsburgh Pirates fans have become used to the annual exodus of expiring contracts at the trade deadline. However, there might be more to this coming deadline for the Pirates. There’s speculation that general manager Ben Cherington may step outside of his comfort zone this time around. Specifically, the Pirates might be sellers and buyers. In addition to the usual potential-free-agent-for-prospects deals, Cherington might acquire a hitter who might help the team for several years. That might mean a young hitter with the ever-attractive years of control. Or it might mean a more established hitter under a long-term deal, perhaps even a lucrative long-term deal, provided Cherington could dump a similar contract (read: , , ) to offset the cost. On his weekly radio show last Sunday, Cherington discussed the need for the team’s offense to become more left-handed to take advantage of PNC Park. That wasn’t necessarily a shocking revelation. His shortstop, , last month, and in any event, that’s been obvious to even the most casual baseball observer. On Tuesday, the Pirates , perhaps because of the need for more left-handed hitting. Or maybe just because. Pirates Might Seek Left-Handed Hitters at the Trade Deadline With that in mind, let’s look at some left-handed hitters who just might be had. This isn’t to suggest that any of them are available or that the Pirates could swing a deal for them. Only the parties working the phones know these things. Thus, I won’t suggest any mock trade proposals, either. Finally, I get it – Cherington’s trades have mostly yielded disappointment. But let’s do some window shopping for the Pirates anyway. Now, some possible trade partners: The Athletics The Athletics are badly in need of pitching, with a 5.32 ERA team as of the close of Wednesday’s action. Only the Colorado Rockies are worse. Last spring, the A’s gave a seven-year, $65.5 million to right fielder . It seems they’ll build their offense around Butler, , and All-Star . That might leave 23-year-old left-handed hitter as the expendable party. Why would the A’s part with him? Because they want to bring a good team to Las Vegas in 2028, they need pitching, and one has to give to get. He’d be attractive to a team like the Pirates at the trade deadline because he has no free agency rights until 2030. So far in 2025, he’s hitting .257/.339/.440, 15 HR, and 49 RBI. [caption id="attachment_103928" align="alignnone" width="525"] Jul 10, 2025; West Sacramento, California, USA; Athletics left fielder Tyler Soderstrom (21) rounds the bases after hitting a three run home run during the first inning against the Atlanta Braves at Sutter Health Park. Mandatory Credit: Sergio Estrada-Imagn Images[/caption] After spending 2023 and 2024 as a catcher/first baseman/designated hitter, in 2025, Soderstrom finally found a position. Playing left field, he’s leading American League left fielders with six Fielding Runs Above Average (FRAA) and a 2.47 Range Factor per Nine Innings. Oddly, he’s also been charged with -1 Defensive Runs Saved (DRS). Boston Red Sox The Red Sox outfield suddenly became crowded last month when they , then baseball’s No. 1 prospect. The Bosox were already fairly solid in the outfield, with , , and . Boston signed the gifted center fielder Rafaela to an eight-year, $50 million last year. Anthony and Rafaela aren’t going anywhere. Neither are Duran and Abreu, says their general manager . However, with the Red Sox sitting at 49-45, good for the last Wild Card spot in the American League, but just barely, they may listen to offers for one of the outfielders. Both bat left-handed. Abreu has more club control, making him more attractive to any trade partner. There were soft rumors that had Abreu headed to the Pirates last offseason. Could the Pirates make that happen this trade deadline? Right fielder Abreu, 26, is hitting .260/.326/.508, 18 HR, and 52 RBI. He’s also a strong defender, who’s made more than his share of highlight-reel catches. He’s been credited with 12 FRAA and eight DRS so far. Like Soderstrom, he can’t be a free agent until 2030. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AelWuluKiJQ Duran, 28, is a left fielder who’s hitting .262/.318/.462, 8 HR, and 50 RBI. That’s a drop from last year’s All-Star season when he hit .285/.342/.492, 21 HR, 75 RBI, and a major league-leading 48 doubles and 14 triples, although he also leads the majors in triples this season with 10. Even so, his .262 would be third-best on the Pirates. He’s also an above-average defender. He can’t be a free agent until 2029. But he’s signed for $3.75 million this year, and the team has an $8 million option for 2026. Chicago White Sox The White Sox have two hot young catchers in switch-hitting and left-handed-hitting . For now, Quero is getting the bulk of the playing time, but ultimately, the Chisox would like to use them in tandem, perhaps in a platoon. But after setting a record for in a season last year and needs all over the diamond, can the White Sox...

Right-Hander Bryan Baker Crumbles in Rays Debut in 4-3 Loss to Red Sox. For a while on Thursday night, it looked like everything was going right for the Tampa Bay Rays in their series opener against the Boston Red Sox. Center fielder Chandler Simpson hit an infield single to set the franchise record for the longest hitting streak by a rookie at 14 games. Later, shortstop Ha-Seong Kim launched a two-run blast over the Green Monster in the fourth inning to give him his first home run in a Rays jersey and his team a 2-1 lead. Junior Caminero followed suit in the sixth, crushing a solo shot to give him his 23rd home run of the season and his second in as many games.

Rangers' Jake Burger knows how fast a season can change. Now he's working to get there. Texas Rangers first baseman Jake Burger, for especially particular reasons, can and will tell you exactly where his statistics stood this time last season. “I think this exact day last year,” Burger said Thursday at Angels Stadium, “I was hitting .215 with a .605 OPS.” Burger is so aware of the data because, from July 11, 2024 through the end of the season with the Miami Marlins, he slashed .288/.345/.572 and hit 20 home runs. “I know how fast these things can change,” Burger said.

Marcelo Mayer (3B/SS - BOS)
7/10/25 8:03 PM -
Red Sox rookie survives roster crunch, has 'best at-bat of the season' in comeback win. When Marcelo Mayer arrived at Fenway Park for Thursday's game against the Rays, there was some question of if he'd still be with the Red Sox by the end of the day. Within hours, the rookie infielder would survive a roster crunch precipitated by Alex Bregman's impending return and provide a key hit in a 4-3 comeback win that extended Boston's winning streak to seven games. Mayer, who started at third base, delivered one of two big swings for the Red Sox in a three-run seventh inning that turned a two-run deficit into a one-run lead. After Trevor Story and Romy Gonzalez led off with back-to-back walks against Rays newcomer Bryan Baker, Mayer worked a 2-1 count, then ripped a 108.7 mph opposite-field RBI double that made it a one-run game and put two men in scoring position for the red-hot Ceddanne Rafaela.

Why Tomoyuki Sugano believes Orioles can still make MLB playoffs. Despite a disastrous start to the 2025 season, Baltimore Orioles pitcher Tomoyuki Sugano isn't ready to give up on October baseball — and his belief may say more about Baltimore's recent surge than the standings do. As the Orioles pitching staff steadies and the team's bats heat up, Sugano's confidence is helping lead the clubhouse through a crucial stretch. By late May, Baltimore's season appeared all but lost. The Orioles' playoff chances had plummeted as the team fell to 21-36, sitting 15 games below .500.

Blue Jays Linked to Guardians Star, but Trade Value Could Be a Sticking Point.

Prior to their 2-1 loss at the hands of the Chicago White Sox on Wednesday, the team was riding a 10-game winning streak, which included a sweep of the New York Yankees. With their playoff odds currently sitting at 81.1% according to Baseball Reference, it would make sense for the Blue Jays to be aggressive in seeking out upgrades ahead of the deadline at the end of the month. Toronto is going to search high and low for starting pitching help, and preferably, the player they acquire is controllable for multiple years since Max Scherzer and Chris Bassitt are on an expiring contracts and Kevin Gausman's deal expires after the 2026 campaign.

Tigers Add To Talented Prep Hitter Pipeline in New MLB Mock Draft. The 2025 MLB draft features a strong class of prep hitters, and the Detroit Tigers, perhaps more than any other team, are positioned to capitalize on that. After making the playoffs for the first time in 10 seasons in their 2024 campaign, the Tigers will now pick outside of the top 20 for the first time since 2015.

In the last two drafts, they've hit on first-round picks Bryce Rainer, Max Clark, and Kevin McGonigle, who have all translated immediately well to the pro level.

Yankees cut 2-time batting champ DJ LeMahieu with nearly $22 million left on contract. DJ LeMahieu has been cut by the New York Yankees with almost $22 million remaining on his contract, one day after the two-time batting champion got demoted to the bench. LeMahieu, who turns 37 on Sunday, was designated for assignment and fellow infielder Jorbit Vivas was recalled from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. The Yankees then released LeMahieu on Thursday. A three-time All-Star, LeMahieu was batting .266 with two homers, 12 RBIs and a .674 OPS. He made his season debut May 13 after recovering from a left calf strain.

It's finally a good sign for the Yankees, whose starting rotation has been decimated by injury this year. The Yankees went on to win the game, against the Seattle Mariners at Yankee Stadium, 9-6. When asked what he planned to do with the ball from his first-ever big league strikeout, Schlittler shared that he'd be giving it to some loved ones who traveled from his hometown in Massachusetts to witness his life-long dream come true.

This time around, it was breakout centerfielder Jake Meyers, who was scratched from the game after he appeared to suffer a left calf injury during pre-game warmups.

Last month, Jose Ramirez made Cleveland Guardians history, being named an All-Star for the seventh time, tying a record for the second-most in franchise history. Ramirez spoke to the media following the announcement and explained that he will sit out the All-Star game to use the time to get healthy and be ready for the second half of the season. "Everything started with that collision with [Vladimir Guerrero Jr.] in Toronto [on May 2]," Ramirez said through his interpreter, Agustin Rivero (quote via MLB.com's Time Stebbins).

Cam Schlittler brings heat and hope to Yankees in winning MLB debut. One game into his major league career, Cam Schlittler is the hardest-throwing member of the New York Yankees’ rotation. Schlittler used his 100 mph fastball to shut down Cal Raleigh and the Seattle Mariners during an eye-opening debut Wednesday night, pitching the Yankees to a 9-6 victory before a throng of friends and family members in the crowd. One of the team’s top-rated prospects, the 6-foot-6 Schlittler struck out seven over 5 1/3 innings to earn the win. He threw New York’s seven fastest pitches this season and his average fastball velocity of 97.9 mph was the highest for a Yankees pitcher this year. But it was his poise and improved secondary pitches that really impressed manager Aaron Boone.

DJ LeMahieu (1B/3B - NYY)
7/10/25 4:00 AM -
Yankees Mean Business with DJ LeMahieu Move. The New York Yankees shocked the world of baseball this afternoon when they announced the decision to designate infielder DJ LeMahieu for assignment. The decision came after LaMahieu was benched — a decision he was very unhappy with, according to reports — in favor of moving Jazz Chisholm Jr. back to second. As the trade deadline approaches, this decision makes one thing abundantly clear: the Yankees are not playing around. Utility man and typical third baseman Oswaldo Cabrera is out for possibly the entire season after suffering a left ankle fracture in May. While New York had been playing Chisholm at third, he's really best at second base, evidenced by his performance in Tuesday night's dominant 10-3 victory against the Seattle Mariners.

Yankees GM Reveals Trade Deadline Plans.

"I'm definitely gonna be looking for upgrades if I can, it doesn't guarantee anything," Cashman told the press on Wednesday. Cashman is referring to Gerrit Cole and Luis Gil, as well as Clarke Schmidt who was recently moved to the injured list with what is expected to be a season-ending injury that will require Tommy John surgery. Cashman went on to compliment the team's other impressive starters who have "stepped up", including Will Warren, who went nearly five scoreless innings in Tuesday's game against the Seattle Mariners.

Eovaldi has struck out 86 batters and has held their batting average to a .194 while only walking 13. Team radio broadcaster Jared Sandler reported his personal frustrations with the All-Star snub.

Texas Rangers right-hander Jon Gray will make his first minor league rehab start Wednesday for the Express in their game vs. the Albuquerque Isotopes at Dell Diamond. Gray, 33, has not yet pitched in a game this season after his wrist was fractured by a comebacker during spring training. Rangers third baseman Josh Jung is in Round Rock as part of a minor league assignment designed to let him work the kinks out of his swing and approach in a low-stress environment.

Another summer in trade limbo for White Sox' Luis Robert Jr.: 'That's in their hands'. “Nothing,” Luis Robert Jr. said Wednesday when asked what he does to unwind off the field. In his second game back in the Sox lineup against Toronto after a hamstring injury, Robert was 0-for-3 with a walk. Excited gasps were quickly followed by sighs from the Wednesday matinee crowd when his deep fly with the bases loaded was caught to end the fifth inning — and boos followed his eighth-inning strikeout. A night earlier, Venable said Robert looked “guarded” in his first game back, but Robert said he feels “good, and when my body is asking me for more, I'll go for more.”

Hader worked around a two-out single from Brayan Rocchio in the ninth inning but was undone by walks to Jose Ramirez and Carlos Santana before Martinez hit his first career grand slam.

Kansas City Royals rookie Jac Caglianone had two home runs in a single game on the road against the Texas Rangers, but in 13 games at Kauffman Stadium, he still hadn't gone deep. Caglianone put an A swing on a Mitch Keller change-up and sent it hurtling toward the right-center field bleachers at a blistering 114.1 miles per hour. It got the Royals on the board in the second inning of their game against the Pittsburgh Pirates, which they'd go on to win 4-3 in walk-off fashion. It was clear Caglianone had been pressing at the plate--how could he not be?

In his first offseason as CBO, Craig Breslow decided to buy low on Lucas Giolito, hoping that new pitching coach Andrew Bailey would be able to turn him around. Giolito was coming off a second half of 2023 where he was worth -1.2 bWAR and had a 6.96 ERA over 12 starts. The Sox signed Giolito to a two-year, $38.5 million contract, with year two being a player option.

Mariners linked to Alex Bregman trade if Red Sox run into key roadblock. There's a chance that Alex Bregman returns to the AL West much sooner than anyone would've thought. The Boston Red Sox are trying to sign Bregman to a contract extension, according to The Athletic's Jim Bowden . But if they can't, Bowden writes that the Seattle Mariners could be a destination for Bregman in a trade. The Mariners could certainly use a third base upgrade as they try to chase down a playoff spot. Ben Williamson has performed admirably in his first big league season but doesn't pack a lot of power at the hot corner. Bregman was a superstar for the Astros for a long time before joining the Red Sox this offseason. The 31-year old got off to a blistering hot start to the season, batting

The Miami Marlins and New York Yankees have looked like perfect trade partners ahead of the MLB trade deadline for quite some time now, and with some recent injury news for the Yankees, a deal between the two sides may consummate long before July 31. New York relief pitcher Mark Leiter Jr. was just placed on the 15-day injured list as a result of a stress fracture in his leg, further complicating the Yankees' bullpen situation. Remember: Fernando Cruz has also been sidelined with an oblique issue. The Yanks probably would have been in the market for another reliever even if Leiter didn't get hurt, but now, this further increases their need for another arm.
