Red Sox starter keeps lineup card, plans to frame it for future 'man cave'.

Why the Cleveland Guardians should go after this former NL Cy Young Award winner. Let's face it: the Cleveland Guardians need an ace. They haven't really had one since Shane Bieber went through his dominant spiel in the second half of the 2019 season and the entirety of the COVID-plagued 2020 and up until he had Tommy John surgery last year, causing him to miss the entirety of the 2024 season and the 2025 season up to this point. And even then, he wasn't the bonafide strongarm that Corey Kluber was, but both of them still brought Cy Young Awards to Cleveland and the Guardians need someone that can continue that trend in a durable and dominant fashion. And that someone might be just like Bieber, a Cy Young winner recently put on the shelf thanks to Tommy John surgery. That

Seiya Suzuki (OF/DH - CHC)

7/7/25 7:01 PM -
Jack's Take: Chicago Cubs' Seiya Suzuki A Historical Snub From 2025 MLB All-Star Game. Common sense says the MLB RBI leader is an All-Star. The 2025 National League All-Star roster does not, however. Hank Greenberg in 1935 is the only instance of a player leading the league in RBI at the All-Star break but not making the All-Star team, per Grok. Greenberg had 103 RBI at the break, but he was left off by his own manager, Mickey Cochrane, who chose Jimmie Foxx and Lou Gehrig instead. Greenberg even went on to win the 1935 MVP with the Detroit Tigers.

Red Sox are putting their trust in Nate Eaton at top of batting order.

Entering Monday, Eaton had 5 hits, 5 runs, and 3 stolen bases in 21 plate appearances since being called up on June 16. Eaton has a hit in each game he's led off, cracking a double down the right-field line in Saturday's third inning, and lining a single the other way to lead off Sunday's game — then stealing second and coming around to score on Roman Anthony's single two batters later.

One left-handed hitter who is highly expected to be available at the MLB July 31 trade deadline is Arizona Diamondbacks first baseman Josh Naylor. While at just two games under .500 the D-Backs aren't a lock to be sellers, executives around the league expect them to be, according to The Athletics' Jim Bowden. "The Diamondbacks say they will be buyers at the trade deadline, with acquiring pitching the priority," Bowden wrote.

Fedde only lasted 1 1/3 innings before manager Oli Marmol went to the bullpen. Fedde left the game with three earned runs, four walks, and zero strikeouts.

The investigation, which reportedly will continue through the All-Star break, has put the 26-year-old's career in serious jeopardy.

Outside of their star ace in MacKenzie Gore, the rest of the Nationals' starters have fallen woefully short of expectations, which has, in turn, made it extremely challenging for the team as a whole to find any sort of consistent success. As such, the highly anticipated debut of star Japanese pitcher Shinnosuke Ogasawara on Sunday afternoon against the Boston Red Sox stirred excitement among many to see just what the left-hander was capable of.

'Got kicked in the teeth': What change(s) Cardinals are forced to face after Cubs dominate. At the beginning of a series that will spur change for the Cardinals — because after it got ugly, it got even uglier at Wrigley Field — baseball operations president John Mozeliak discussed the trade deadline, the decisions ahead and the player banging at the door of the majors who may now get their full, undivided attention. “He's a major league pitcher,” Mozeliak said of right-hander Michael McGreevy. The word used late Sunday night in the Cardinals clubhouse after a messy 11-0 loss to the archrival Chicago Cubs was “reevaluation.” The right-hander did not complete the second inning, and he's allowed 17 runs in his previous 10 innings, his ERA ballooning from 3.54 to 4.79 in the span of 11 days.

Especially when we had the lead all the way to the eighth and they caught us. “It's huge,” Caballero said.

Devers was under contract for 8 1/2 more seasons, so anyone who could conceivably gone after 2025 is now fair game in the eyes of most. Bregman and agent Scott Boras seem more than amenable to an extension, so trading the superstar third baseman would essentially be an admission that the Red Sox are back to operating like a small-market franchise.

Atlanta is 12.5 games behind the Philadelphia Phillies for the top spot in the NL East and is eight games off of the last NL Wild Card spot, so other teams will be understandably calling about some of their top players.

IN FOCUS: Mack's #5 Mets Prospect - Edward Cabrera, Vaughn Grissom, Pablo Reyes, Yogi Berra, Bobby Jenks.

The Mets acquired him in August 2023, along with Drew Gilbert, in a trade for Justin Verlander.

Cubs Reportedly Have Aggressive Deadline Mentality To Acquire Starting Pitching. The Chicago Cubs need help in their rotation. Already without Justin Steele for the remainder of this season and much of the next, the loss of Jameson Taillon to the injured list is a huge blow for a unit that already didn't have much depth coming into the year when those two were healthy. Getting Shota Imanaga back has been important, but if the Cubs are going to make a serious run in October, then adding some more high-end pitching should be their No. 1 target ahead of the upcoming trade deadline. According to Patrick Mooney of The Athletic (subscription required), that is the mentality the organization has right now.

How Mets' Kodai Senga fared in his rehab outing for Double-A Binghamton. In what might have been his only rehab start, New York Mets starting pitcher Kodai Senga wasn't particularly sharp. Pitching in his first live game since suffering a hamstring strain in June, Senga lasted just 3.2 innings for the Double-A Binghamton Rumble Ponies on Saturday. Despite not being at his best, Senga still threw 68 pitches, which was what the Mets were looking for their ace to do during this rehab outing. While it remains unseen whether the results of his rehab start will determine if Senga will pitch for New York before the All-Star break, his imminent return can't come soon enough.

New York Mets' Pete Alonso, Brandon Nimmo Explode at the Plate, Make History. The second Subway Series of 2025 was decided Saturday afternoon, thanks in large part to the clutch hitting of the New York Mets' two most experienced sluggers. Brandon Nimmo got the ball rolling early, taking Carlos Rodón deep for a grand slam in the bottom of the first. After the New York Yankees closed the gap with a pair of solo home runs, Pete Alonso erased that progress with a two-run shot in the fifth. The Yankees showed life again in the sixth and seventh, with Anthony Volpe's home run making it a 7-5 ballgame, but Alonso buried the Bronx Bombers with a three-run shot.

It paid dividends for Minnesota, as Sands and four other relievers were able to gut out the victory. Other than a four-run sixth inning, Twins pitchers allowed only two hits.

Taking the lead in the National League East and looking once again like a surefire playoff team, the Phillies are going to have to shake some things up in order to get over the World Series hump they have been unable to reach with this group the last three years. While bullpen upgrades are an obvious necessity and something Philadelphia's brass has been fairly open about when it comes to their search, perhaps there could be a different significant change on the horizon to both the lineup and defensive alignment. During a recent survey of executives around the league, Jim Bowden of The Athletic (subscription required) wrote about the possibility that the Phillies could look to part ways with fan favorite right fielder Nick Castellanos.

The Yankees have lost their lead in the American League East, trailing the Toronto Blue Jays by three games after holding crown for over two months, and have now hit their second six-game losing streak in less than a month. When asked if the losing streak is impacting the clubhouse, causing players to be down or the team to have a sense of panic, Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge gave as straight-forward of an answer as he could.
