4/29/25 5:00 PM - How Ex-Red Sox Alex Verdugo Has Performed Since Call-Up. Former Boston Red Sox outfielder Alex Verdugo has been making the most of his latest big league opportunity, now as a member of the Atlanta Braves. Verdugo spent most of free agency with cricket-silent interest generated after the 28-year-old's one-year run with the New York Yankees. Minimal traction took off with the Kansas City Royals and Pittsburgh Pirates linked to Verdugo, which allowed the Braves to swoop in and take a flier on a one-year minor league contract with Verdugo. There wasn't an immediate opening on the big league roster, but the timing proved to be perfect once Atlanta hit panic mode with 2024 All-Star Jurickson Profar.

The Philadelphia Phillies have had an intriguing start to 2025, with a 15-13 record to their name, and they currently sit in second place in the National League East. Getting back some of their key players and building a really formidable pitching staff would likely help their chances, especially depending on how they utilize some players in the bullpen if it comes to that. While right now the discussion is a six-man rotation, evetually they could find one playing in relief if they need help there. The most recent set of updates for the Phillies is that Christopher Sanchez will start Wednesday and Taijuan Walker will start Thursday, as was reported by Scott Lauber of The Philadelphia Inquirer.

Recently, the Japanese pitcher threw his first bullpen session since being sidelined and has reportedly been ramping up since then, according to MLB.com's Padres reporter AJ Cassavell. The next step for Darvish will be to face live hitters during a few minor league starts, though it may still take some time before he does so, depending on his progress and the urgency of the Padres' plans, he could be ramped up for a late May or early June return.

The team has a lengthy injured list filled with key contributors on offense, including budding star Jackson Merrill, contact hitter Luis Arraez, and All-Star Jake Cronenworth. Xander Bogaerts' struggles have not helped matters, leading the offense to completely falter over the past few weeks, especially when the team's stars have an off game.

The rotation already looked like a weak point before Justin Steele went on the season-ending injured list two weeks ago. Now, the Cubs' need for a starting pitcher looks more desperate, and they should be willing to move real pieces to get the extra ace they need.

Matt Shaw (2B - CHC)
4/28/25 12:00 PM - Chicago Cubs Top Prospect Starting To Rake in Minor Leagues After Rough Stretch. The Chicago Cubs made a controversial move earlier this month which may now be proving to have been the right call. After top prospect Matt Shaw made the Opening Day roster as the team's starting third baseman, the hopes to see him break onto the scene as a rookie from fans were high. During the first 18 games of his MLB career, Shaw had a slash line of .172/.294/.241 with one home run, three RBI and just 10 hits. When a rookie -- especially a high-profile one -- is struggling like this, it's always a debate as to whether to let him work things out in the Major Leagues or to send him back down and allow him to regain a rhythm.

Jordan Romano hasn't worked out in the closer role, and José Alvarado, though he's five-for-five in save opportunities so far, has an uneven career track record. It would be no surprise to see the Phillies pursue a more experienced closer at the trade deadline. Last season, the Phillies nabbed closer Carlos Estévez from the Los Angeles Angels at the deadline, and the veteran righty was very good in Philadelphia--right up until he gave up the grand slam to Francisco Lindor that sunk the Phillies' postseason battleship.

Masyn Winn (SS - STL)
4/28/25 5:35 AM - Cardinals Cutting Ties With Phenom For Now Down To Minors. The St. Louis Cardinals recently made a somewhat surprising decision to keep young infielder Thomas Saggese on the big league roster despite both Masyn Winn and Nolan Gorman. The surprising part of that decision to keep him in St. Louis had nothing to do with his performance. The surprising part was that there wasn't going to be as much time to go around for him to have an everyday opportunity with Winn and Gorman now healthy. It sounds like the Cardinals are looking more in that direction now as they optioned him to the minors on Sunday in favor of infielder Jose Barrero, according to MLB.com's John Denton.

Bryce Elder (P - ATL)
4/28/25 3:41 AM - Braves look to gain ground against hapless Rockies. The Atlanta Braves didn't look like a contender 10 days ago, but they are rolling after winning seven of their past nine games. Atlanta will take that momentum into Denver against the Colorado Rockies on Monday night. The Braves will send Bryce Elder (0-1, 5.57 ERA) against Colorado's Ryan Feltner (0-1, 3.86) in a matchup of right-handers. The Braves began the season with a 0-7 record, then climbed to 5-13 before putting together four- and three-game winning streaks to get close to even before losing the finale of a three-game road series to the Arizona Diamondbacks on Sunday.

Juan Soto (OF - NYM)
4/28/25 3:18 AM - Nationals Notebook: Walk-off wins wowing Washington. Over 162 games, they will almost definitely post more wins than a Nats team that hasn't recorded a winning season since 2019. Sunday afternoon, Abrams scored on a throwing error in the ninth inning to give the Nats an 8-7 win after they trailed by six runs. Digesting the Division: The New York Mets (19-9) might not be getting great production from Juan Soto (.248 with 12 RBI), but Pete Alonso more than makes up for that with 26 RBI in 29 games. Philadelphia (15-13) got swept by the Mets this past week in an early-season barometer for both clubs.

Clay Holmes (P - NYM)
4/28/25 3:01 AM - Converted reliever Clay Holmes has been a key addition to the Mets' surprisingly effective rotation. The New York Mets' experiment with Clay Holmes is working swimmingly so far. Holmes has made the transition from closer to starter look easy, going 3-1 with a 2.64 ERA in six outings. Frankie Montas hasn't thrown a pitch, and reliever A.J. Minter just joined him on the injured list. Sean Manaea, who came back to the Mets with a $75 million, three-year contract, hasn't pitched yet either because of an oblique strain.
