Enright will provide the Angels a bit more bullpen depth over the regular season’s final month. He posted a 2.73 ERA and 1.16 WHIP in 52 2/3 innings with Salt Lake.

Mauricio gets the combo meal in a blowout win over the lowly Rockies. Still counts. The 24-year-old has his first homer of the 2025 campaign, and the steal is also his first after being recalled from Syracuse on Tuesday. Mauricio is still young enough to live up to the lofty expectations he once had, but fantasy managers shouldn’t be rushing to add the infielder just yet.

Lindor’s first game back in the starting lineup was a successful one. The fractured pinkie toe clearly wasn’t bugging him too much, as he swiped a pair of bags to bring his total to 13 in 2025. Lindor may get some maintenance days to prevent aggravation, but it doesn’t appear that this injury will slow him down. Literally and figuratively.

Márquez is now 2-8 on the season and has an ERA of exactly 7.00. He’s not a good pitcher, and he pitches for the worst team in baseball. Atlanta gets the pleasure of facing him next weekend.

Holmes gave up nine hits, but the only run he allowed came on a solo homer off the bat of Ryan McMahon. The 32-year-old didn’t issue a free pass, and he struck out six in another successful outing. Holmes now has an ERA of 2.95 on the season, and you cannot say the conversion to starter has been anything but a success. He gets the Rays next weekend.

Cowser absolutely clobbered a solo homer off Luis Severino in the sixth that went an estimated 457 feet. It’s the third homer of the season for the 25-year-old, and it is of course worth mentioning that total has come in just nine games after missing significant time with his fractured thumb. Cowser has been a streaky hitter over his short MLB career, but he’s more than talented enough to be a strong fantasy option for 2025 and beyond as long as he’s healthy.

Laureano went hitless in his first game back from the injured list, but made up for it against his former team Saturday. The two-run homer was the seventh of the season for the outfielder, and a couple more knocks sees his slash at a very solid .275/.327/.549. With the Orioles not getting the kind of offense expected out of their corner outfield and some injuries as well, Laureano should get a chance to keep up the good run. Fantasy managers needing outfield help could do worse than give him a shot.

Bautista did allow a hit, so whether or not he struck out the side is up to you. The 29-year-old has saved 12 of the Orioles’ 26 wins in 2025, and he’s done it with an ERA of 3.31. Baltimore appears to be turning things around, so it’s more than reasonable to think there’ll be more consistent chances for Bautista over these summer months.

Severino was handed a three-run cushion after the first inning, and while he held the O’s to only a run over his first three frames, things fell apart in the middle frames. A two-run homer by Ramón Laureano made it a 4-3 game in the fourth, and he would be charged for three more runs before leaving another disappointing start. The 31-year-old is now 1-6 on the season, and it’s a deserved 1-6 with an ERA of 4.77 in his first year with the A’s. Severino will try and get things turned around against the Royals on Friday.

After back-to-back solid starts for Morton, this one fell apart quickly. He gave up a four-spot in the first, and while he didn’t let anyone else cross the plate, there was no way this was going to be a third-consecutive quality start. Morton now has an ugly ERA of 6.59, and can’t be trusted as a fantasy option. That includes Friday against the Angels.

McMahon’s homer comes in a blowout, but for those curious, it was a big one at the time as it tied the game at a run a piece. The Mets would scored the next seven runs because of course they did. McMahon has seven homers over the first 62 games of 2025, and he’s driven in just 18 runs. The last figure obviously isn’t entirely his fault.
