  • TOR Starting Pitcher #6
    Alek Manoah underwent season-ending Tommy John surgery on Monday.
    It ended up being a hybrid ligament replacement with an internal brace procedure that is expected to keep Manoah sidelined for the next 12-14 months. The 26-year-old righty wound up making just five starts this season for Toronto. At this point, it’s getting difficult to envision him being fantasy-relevant ever again.
  • WAS Right Fielder #3
    Dylan Crews went 2-for-4 with a run scored, an RBI and a stolen base against the Marlins on Thursday.
    Crews’ stolen base was his sixth steal of the season. The former No. 2 overall pick in last year’s draft isn’t setting the world on fire, but he’s certainly holding his own and you can see the upside with the power and speed elements in his game. Crews is hitting .241 with a .756 OPS and eight RBI at the major league level so far.
  • MIA Third Baseman #41
    Jonah Bride went 1-for-4 with a run scored and two RBI against the Nationals on Thursday.
    Bride had a sacrifice fly in the third inning and tied the game in the eighth inning with an RBI single. He has a hit in 10 of his last 12 games and is 11-for-39 (.282) with a home run and five RBI in that time. Bride is hitting .259 with a .755 OPS and 27 RBI on the year.
  • MIA Third Baseman #36
    Jake Burger went 3-for-4 against the Nationals on Thursday.
    Burger was 16-for-89 (.180) in his last 23 games entering play Thursday. Maybe the three-hit effort will spark another hot streak for the 28-year-old infielder. Burger has provided a good amount of power this year. He’s hitting .244 with 25 home runs and 61 RBI on the season.
  • WAS Starting Pitcher #70
    Mitchell Parker allowed two runs (none earned) and got a no-decision against the Marlins on Thursday.
    Parker gave up three hits, walked none and struck out five. He’s struck out at least five batters in seven straight starts and has three quality starts in his last five starts. Parker’s had an up and down rookie season. He’s 7-9 with a 4.24 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 127 strikeouts in 142 1/3 innings on the year. The 24-year-old left-hander is set to face the Mets on the road next week.
  • MIA Relief Pitcher #68
    Darren McCaughan allowed three runs in five innings and got a no-decision in the Marlins’ 6-3 victory over the Nationals on Thursday.
    McCaughan gave up six hits, walked two and struck out one. Washington scored three time in the first inning on an RBI single by Dylan Crews and a two-run double by Jose Tena. McCaughan isn’t a fantasy option at the moment. He has a 7.06 ERA and 1.81 in 15 strikeouts in 29 1/3 innings on the season. The 28-year-old right-hander is set to face the Dodgers at home next week.
  • MIL Relief Pitcher #58
    Brewers transferred LHP Rob Zastryzny to the 60-day injured list.
    Zastrysny was already on the injured list with left elbow tendinitis. He was moved to the 60-day injured list to make room on the 40-man roster for Enoli Paredes, who was reinstated from the 60-day injured list. The 32-year-old left-hander had a 1.17 ERA in nine appearances with Milwaukee this year.
  • MIL Relief Pitcher #59
    Brewers optioned RHP Elvis Peguero to Triple-A Nashville.
    Peguero was sent down to make room for Enoli Paredes on the Brewers’ active roster. The 27-year-old right-hander has a 2.98 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 47 strikeouts in 51 1/3 innings this year.
  • MIL Relief Pitcher #49
    Brewers activated RHP Enoli Paredes from the 60-day injured list.
    Paredes had been out since July with right forearm tendinitis. He was a key member of the bullpen prior to his injury. Paredes had a 1.08 ERA, 1.02 WHIP and 12 strikeouts in 16 2/3 innings for the Brewers this year. He’s making his return just in time with the playoffs only a few weeks away.
  • TEX Shortstop #5
    Corey Seager will have season-ending surgery on Friday for a sports hernia.
    Seager was already on the injured list with hip discomfort, but after meeting with doctors it was determined that he has a sports hernia for the second time. The surgery will keep Seager out for the rest of the year. He hit .278 with 30 home runs, 68 runs scored, 74 RBI and one stolen base. Seager has hit at least 30 home runs and made the All-Star team in each of the last three years.
  • LAD Relief Pitcher #73
    Dodgers signed LHP Zach Logue to a minor league contract.
    Logue elected free agency last week after he was waived by the Braves. Logue was a ninth round pick by the Blue Jays in the 2017 MLB Draft and one of the prospects Toronto sent to Oakland in the trade for Matt Chapman. He wasn’t successful as a starter with the Athletics in 2022 and last appeared in the majors as a reliever with the Tigers last year. Logue isn’t eligible for the playoff roster, but could make an appearance with Los Angeles in the regular season if the Dodgers clinch and need a fresh arm to eat some innings.
