    Angels released RHP Anthony Ortega.
    Ortega, 26, posted an ugly 8.23 ERA and 28/15 K/BB ratio over three starts and 17 relief appearances this season with Triple-A Salt Lake. Arm problems have derailed his career since he made three starts for the Angels in 2009 as a 23-year-old.

    Cardinals RHP prospect Sem Robberse underwent Tommy John surgery.
    Robberse will be on the shelf likely until the second half of the 2026 campaign. The 23-year-old righty made only four starts this season at Triple-A Memphis before requiring surgery.
    Don't expect Baez's hot streak to be long-term
    Eric Samulski explains why fantasy managers should ride the Javier Baez hot streak but not rely on the Detroit Tigers center fielder for long-term results throughout the season.
  • LAA Left Fielder #15
    Matthew Lugo is in center field and batting eighth on Wednesday against the Padres.
    Lugo gets the nod over a slumping Kyren Paris after coming off the bench to crush a two-run homer during Tuesday’s showdown at Petco Park. The unheralded 24-year-old prospect is hitting .300 (3-for-10) with two homers and four RBI in five games since being called up last Friday from Triple-A Salt Lake. He’s an intriguing talent with a real chance to carve out a role in Los Angeles, especially with Paris mired in an 11-for-83 (.133) slump since blasting two homers back on April 10.
  • MIN 1st Baseman #18
    Kody Clemens hit a three-run homer in the top of the eighth to propel the Twins to an 8-6 win over the Orioles in the second game of Wednesday’s doubleheader.
    A doubleheader sweep. Clemens also had an RBI single before giving the Twins the lead by taking Yennier Cano deep in the eighth. It was Clemens’ second homer in 22 at-bats and 11 appearances since being picked up by Minnesota. The OBP skills aren’t there to make him a quality platoon option, but he has managed 16 homers in 398 career at-bats as a major leaguer.
  • MIN Starting Pitcher #24
    Simeon Woods Richardson was tagged for six runs in four innings by the Orioles in the second game of Wednesday’s doubleheader.
    All of the runs came in the third inning, when he gave up a grand slam and a solo homer. The Twins don’t ask Woods Richardson to pitch deep into games at all, so he needs to do considerably better than his current 5.02 ERA. Still, the team has gone 5-3 in his outings anyway, even as he’s won just twice. He’ll probably stay in the rotation and face the Guardians next week.
  • MIN Relief Pitcher #44
    Cole Sands worked a scoreless ninth for a save in the second game of Wednesday’s doubleheader against the Orioles.
    Jhoan Duran and Griffin Jax worked in the first game, so Sands got the call in the second and picked up his first save of 2025 and the sixth of his career. Sands has just a 12/6 K/BB in 16 2/3 innings this season, but he’s been successful anyway in posting a 2.70 ERA. He had a far more impressive 85/12 K/BB in 71 1/3 innings last year.
  • BAL Starting Pitcher #59
    Chayce McDermott yielded four runs in three innings Wednesday in the second game of a doubleheader against the Twins.
    McDermott gave up runs in each inning he pitched during his season debut. He’ll head back to Triple-A now after serving as the 27th man today.
  • BAL Center Fielder #31
    Cedric Mullins hit his fourth career grand slam in the second game of Wednesday’s doubleheader against the Twins.
    He also singled. After a poor stint hitting leadoff, Mullins is back in the middle of the Baltimore order now, having hit sixth today. It probably doesn’t mean much, but he’s just 12-for-70 with three extra-base hits and seven runs scored in 18 games as a leadoff man this year. He’s 20-for-69 with 11 extra-base hits and 14 runs scored in 21 games elsewhere.
  • DET 3rd Baseman #41
    White Sox returned INF Gage Workman to the Tigers.
    Workman passed through waivers unclaimed after being designated for assignment earlier this week by the White Sox, which meant he was offered back to the Tigers. The 25-year-old infielder was a Rule 5 pick by the Cubs in the offseason before heading to the South Side on a waiver claim. He’ll head to Triple-A Toledo to bolster Detroit’s organizational depth.
  • LAA Starting Pitcher
    Angels RHP George Klassen (concussion) has been discharged from the hospital.
    Klassen has been diagnosed with a concussion after being struck in the head by a line drive during Sunday’s start for Double-A Rocket City. The 23-year-old righty, who came over last July in the Carlos Estévez trade with the Phillies, is one of the top pitching prospects in Los Angeles’ system. The positive news here is that he’s out of the hospital and on the road to recovery. There’s no timetable for when he’ll resume pitching yet.
  • LAD Catcher #94
    Dalton Rushing is not in the lineup for Wednesday’s game against the Athletics.
    Rushing will be on the bench to open Wednesday’s contest with Will Smith handling the catching duties for Los Angeles. The 24-year-old top prospect was officially called up from Triple-A Oklahoma City after posting a .938 OPS with five homers in 31 games this season. He’ll make an impact for fantasy purposes at a relatively shallow position group if he can carve out a semi-regular role in the Dodgers’ loaded lineup.
