Against Nationals, Brewers go for sixth consecutive win. The Milwaukee Brewers are winning games, yet they are far from satisfied. The hottest team in the National League took its fifth straight victory on Friday in the series opener against the Washington Nationals. The host Brewers will try to keep pounding out timely hits in the middle game of the set Saturday afternoon. Eight of Milwaukee's 10 hits on Friday came off Washington starter Mitchell Parker as the Brewers sailed to an 8-3 triumph.

Rockies meet Reds, seek rare series win. The Colorado Rockies have a chance Saturday to do something they've accomplished only twice this season -- and an opportunity to put the Cincinnati Reds on the verge of suffering a fate they haven't endured this year. The Rockies will look to lock up a rare series victory Saturday afternoon when they visit the Reds in the middle game of a three-game set. Bradley Blalock (0-2, 12.94 ERA) is slated to start for the Rockies against fellow right-hander Brady Singer (7-7, 4.32). The Rockies earned a much-needed win Friday night when Hunter Goodman scored the tiebreaking run on a wild pitch in the eighth inning of a 3-2 game.

Nationals Star James Wood on Pace for One of Largest Pre-Arbitration Pool Payments. On July 1, 2024, the James Wood era officially started for the Washington Nationals. Wood created a lot of optimism for the future with how well he played in the big leagues. In 79 games and 295 at-bats, he recorded a solid .264/.354/.427 slash line with nine home runs, 13 doubles and four triples, knocking in 41 runs with 14 stolen bases. Possessing incredible power potential, Wood has begun tapping into that in his second year as a pro, taking his performance to another level.

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.

Phillies legend laments Mets' Juan Soto getting snubbed from All-Star Game. When the complete rosters for the MLB All-Star Game get announced each year, there is typically more discussion about the players who were potentially deserving of a roster spot but didn't make the cut than the players who did receive the All-Star nod. This has remained the case this season, especially as it pertains to New York Mets slugger Juan Soto. Not only has Soto spoken out about not being named to the NL's All-Star roster (which is ridiculous, considering he has one of the highest OPS stats in all of MLB this season), but his teammate Francisco Lindor and manager Carlos Mendoza have both also criticized this snub. What's perhaps more telling is players and icons of rival franchises siding with Soto.

Former Blue Jays Reliever Becomes Free Agent After Being DFA'd by Mets. Back in spring training, the Toronto Blue Jays had some difficult decisions to make with their roster. Wanting to clear some space on their 40-man roster, they decided to move on from relief pitcher Zach Pop despite avoiding arbitration with him over the offseason by agreeing to a one-year, $900,000 contract. Dealing with some elbow soreness during spring training, the Blue Jays were unable to outright him to the minor leagues, which resulted in the team deciding to release him. Because of that, Toronto was on the hook for the entirety of the $900,000 he agreed to, making him an affordable target for other teams.

The Goal for Cincinnati Reds Rookie Phenom on Friday is Clear. The Cincinnati Reds begin a three-game set with the Colorado Rockies on Friday night, and the most important thing to watch will be who is on the mound. Chase Burns makes his fourth career start. His first three have been quite varied, but largely solid. There is one thing I would like to see from his next performance. Burns needs to have a walk-free performance. The Rockies are horrible, which means Burns needs to not beat himself in this start. He can go a long way to accomplish that by not giving up free base runners. Burns has done well to keep the majority of his pitches in the strike zone. He throws over 52% of his pitches in the zone which is well above the league average of 48%. He has

Giants trade proposal lands Diamondbacks ace, but it's not Zac Gallen. The San Francisco Giants are in the thick of the National League playoff hunt, sitting at 51-43 and holding the third wild card spot in a tightly contested NL West. With their offense bolstered by the headline-grabbing acquisition of Rafael Devers, the Giants' glaring weakness remains their starting rotation. Inconsistent performances from veterans like Justin Verlander (6.27 ERA since June 1) and unsteady outings from Hayden Birdsong (5.73 ERA since June 1) have left the team searching for stability on the mound. While much of the trade chatter around the Arizona Diamondbacks revolves around Zac Gallen, it's Merrill Kelly who emerges as the most realistic and impactful target for the Giants.

Francisco Lindor (SS - NYM)
7/11/25 4:30 AM -
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.

7/11/25 4:00 AM -
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.

The Key Fix That Led to Miles Mikolas' Gem After One of His Worst Starts. Miles Mikolas has been quite an unpredictable starter in the 2025 MLB season for the St. Louis Cardinals. Against the Cubs, Mikolas was chased for eight earned runs on 10 hits, six of which were home runs. Adjustments had to be made after such a horrible start, and Mikolas addressed that with the help of pitching coach Dusty Blake.

Bourbonnais native, former White Sox prospect Kris Honel rejuvenated by return to the mound. Next week, 615 amateur baseball players will be selected in the MLB Draft.

A first-round selection by his hometown Chicago White Sox in 2001, Bourbonnais native and former Providence Catholic ace Kris Honel was one of 11 players drafted in the first round that year to never reach the majors.
