Aaron Judge (OF/DH - NYY)

7/12/25 4:23 AM -
Yankees' Aaron Judge makes 3 outstanding catches, robs Cubs' Pete Crow-Armstrong of home run. Aaron Judge made three outstanding catches in right field, robbing Pete Crow-Armstrong of a home run, Dansby Swanson of a single and Kyle Tucker of a two-run hit in the New York Yankees’ 11-0 victory over the Chicago Cubs. The 6-foot-7 Judge leaped at the right-field wall to catch a 327-foot drive by Crow-Armstrong against Carlos Rodón in the fourth inning, denying what would have been Crow-Armstrong’s 26th home run. Judge then rushed in and dove for a backhand grab on Swanson’s sinking liner for the third out of the inning and made a sliding catch on Tucker in the eighth.

Yankees Can Fix Bullpen With AL East Trade. The New York Yankees find themselves in an arms race ahead of the July 31 MLB trade deadline. Yes, they can use a starting pitcher with Clarke Schmidt heading for Tommy John surgery. SNY's Andy Martino thinks the Yankees can spell relief in a trade with the Baltimore Orioles. "The O's are said to be ready or near ready to talk seriously about relievers like Andrew Kittredge ... as well as righty Seranthony Dominguez and lefty Gregory Soto," Martino wrote Thursday.

Luis Severino (P - Ath)

7/12/25 4:00 AM -
Yankees Reuniting with RHP Makes Too Much Sense. With rotation help now running parallel to third base as the New York Yankees' most pressing needs at the trade deadline, perhaps they could call up the Athletics and look to pry away a familiar face in Luis Severino. Severino began his stint in the Yankees' organization upon signing as an international free agent in December 2011. The right-hander became one of the top pitching prospects around the league in short order, evidenced by the fact that MLB Pipeline (No. 23) and Baseball America (No. 35) both ranked him fairly high before the 2015 campaign. Severino ran into a sophomore slump of sorts in 2016 with a 5.83 ERA in 22 appearances, but the Yankees would see him blossom into a high-level pitcher in no time.

Travis d'Arnaud gives Angels a walk-off win against Diamondbacks. The Angels' Travis d'Arnaud, left, is doused with sports drink by teammates Zach Neto, center, and Nolan Schanuel after hitting a walk-off RBI single during the ninth inning of their game against the Arizona Diamondbacks on Friday night at Angel Stadium. ANAHEIM — Travis d'Arnaud had a simple explanation this week for his recent hot streak, saying he was just trying “to be consistent, stay calm and have a slow heartbeat” when he steps to the plate. The veteran catcher displayed all of those qualities in the bottom of the ninth inning Friday night, stroking a pinch-hit RBI single to left field to give the Angels a 6-5 walk-off victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks at Angel Stadium.

The Giants will send Logan Webb to the mound as he looks to continue what has been a dominant first half.

The Angels are the only team in Major League Baseball to have only used five starting pitchers this season.

Mere moments before Los Angeles Dodgers legend Clayton Kershaw secured the 3,000th strikeout of a professional baseball career that will one day end in Cooperstown, All-Star third baseman Max Muncy suffered a scary injury while tagging out a runner attempting to steal third. This not only brought an eerie feeling over Dodger Stadium as the severity of the collision was still unknown, but it put an abrupt pause to what has been an increasingly productive stretch from Muncy this season. Muncy entered the month of May hitting just .194, but has since had a slash line of .282/.410/.546 with a .956 OPS. Muncy's struggles up until May created a bit of a stir in terms of what the future of third base would look like.

In 38 appearances for Detroit last year, he pitched to a 5.37 ERA and 1.572 WHIP before they parted ways and the Pittsburgh Pirates claimed him.

It's fine for Gonzalez to keep getting at-bats against left-handed pitching, but Toro has predictably leveled off of late.

Alcantara, who was traded alongside Arizona Diamondbacks frontline starter Gallen from the Cardinals to the Miami Marlins in Dec. 2017, is enduring the worst season of his illustrious eight-year career -- posting a 4-9 record with a 7.22 ERA, 71-to-37 strikeout-to-walk ratio, .271 batting average against and a 1.48 WHIP in 91 innings pitched.

Reds lefty Andrew Abbott named NL All-Star. CINCINNATI — Cincinnati Reds left-hander Andrew Abbott is an All-Star after all.

It's the first All-Star nod for the 26-year-old Abbott, who was informed during Tuesday night's game against the Miami Marlins and high-fived and hugged teammates in the dugout. Shortstop Elly De La Cruz is Cincinnati's other All-Star. Abbott's ERA would be the fourth best in the majors if he had pitched enough innings to qualify.

Phillies Ace Snubbed Again As Mets Starter Shockingly Gets All-Star Nod Over Him. The Philadelphia Phillies have been carried by their elite starting rotation again. Behind Zack Wheeler, who is putting together another Cy Young-caliber season, there are plenty of starters performing at the top of their games with Ranger Suarez, Cristopher Sanchez and Jesus Luzardo dazzling for the majority of the year. Sanchez was snubbed in the initial roster announcement despite the fantastic season he has put together.

Brewers Linked In Trade Buzz To Rockies All-Star: 'Best Piece'. The Major League Baseball trade deadline is less than three weeks away; what are the Milwaukee Brewers planning? If the Brewers buy, it'll likely be for a difference-making bat. One guy to keep an eye on in this regard is Colorado Rockies third baseman Ryan McMahon. McMahon was the No. 27 player featured on a new, top-40 list of trade targets published on Tuesday by The Athletic's Tim Britton, Aaron Gleeman, and Chad Jennings.

Mike Lupica: With All-Star Break near, both Mets and Yankees show no real sign they can make another deep postseason push. Really, all we know with any kind of clarity at the moment is that the Mets and the Yankees — that means Hal Steinbrenner and Steve Cohen — are paying more than $600 million on teams not good enough to be in first place in their divisions. The Mets are, if not by a lot. Going off the season played so far, their best is still better than the Yankees' best, if for no other reason than they have Francisco Lindor and Juan Soto and Pete Alonso at the top of their batting order.

Short-handed Astros look to shut down hot Rangers offense.

Houston, which will host the Texas Rangers in a three-game series starting Friday night to close the first half of the season, remains saddled by injuries. The Astros suffered a three-game sweep to the Guardians with four position players unavailable: designated hitter Yordan Alvarez (hand), All-Star shortstop Jeremy Pena (ribs), center fielder Jake Meyers (calf), and first baseman Christian Walker (paternity list).

Miami Marlins' Surging Prospect Makes One Trade Very Obvious. The Miami Marlins have decent collection of players that could potentially be moved before the MLB trade deadline, and some trade candidates are more obvious than others. Perhaps the most clear trade piece for the Marlins is outfielder Jesus Sanchez, a streaky hitter who has not quite developed in the way Miami had hoped. The 27-year-old is under team control through 2027, so the Marlins technically don't have to move him now, but the rapid development of one prospect should force Miami's hand.

Clase, 27, has a 3.28 ERA over 37 appearances and 18 saves this year. 11-year-old Robert Cotter caught a foul ball one day at a Philadelphia Phillies game and, like any fan, refused to give it back – even when team officials demanded. Cotter was forced to spend an entire night in jail until being freed the next day when a sympathetic judge found that it was “entirely reasonable” that a kid could keep a foul ball at a baseball game.

Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh: All-Star closer Andrés Muñoz was tipping pitches against Yankees. Seattle Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh thinks All-Star closer Andrés Muñoz was tipping pitches when he squandered a two-run lead in the ninth inning against the New York Yankees. Muñoz was handed his sixth blown save in 27 opportunities this season after starter Bryan Woo held the Yankees hitless into the eighth. With the Mariners holding a 5-3 lead, Muñoz entered in the ninth and loaded the bases on a pair of singles and a two-out walk. Standing at second base while Austin Wells batted, Cody Bellinger waved his arms when Muñoz threw his slider. Wells worked the count full and lined a fastball into right field for a two-run single that tied it. New York then scored in the 10th to win 6-5.
