    Gunnar Henderson went 1-for-4 with a walk, a home run and three RBI against the White Sox on Monday.
    Henderson’s home run was his 34th of the year. He hit a solo shot off Chris Flexen in the first inning. Henderson has five home runs and 14 RBI in his last 19 games. He’s hitting .276 with an .892 OPS and 83 RBI on the season.

    Cardinals signed first-round pick LHP Liam Doyle.
    No word yet on the financial terms. Doyle is one of the more intriguing pitching prospects from the 2025 MLB Draft class after a standout collegiate career in the SEC at Tennessee. The hard-throwing 21-year-old righty, who was selected fifth overall earlier this week by the Cardinals, figures to move extremely quickly through St. Louis’ system given the rapid ascent we’ve seen from fellow elite college arms in recent years. There’s a chance he’s the top pitcher from the draft class and might be the first one to reach the majors. He’s a top-50 range prospect for dynasty purposes.
    Wait to stash Guardians' Bieber until end of July
    Following his recent rehab start, Eric Samulski shares how fantasy managers should approach veteran SP Shane Bieber as he eyes a return to the Guardians, explaining why he could offer mixed results once back.
  • MIA Relief Pitcher #70
    Marlins acquired RHP Michael Petersen from the Braves for cash considerations.
    Peterson will report to Triple-A Jacksonville as organizational relief depth for Miami after making four appearances for Atlanta. The 31-year-old righty holds a pedestrian 5.47 ERA across 26 1/3 innings (20 appearances) in the majors since 2024.
  • MIA Relief Pitcher #38
    Marlins transferred RHP Jesus Tinoco to the 60-day injured list.
    The procedural move frees up a spot on Miami’s 40-man roster to acquire reliever Michael Petersen from Atlanta. Tinoco has been out since early June recovering from a forearm strain. There is no timetable for his return.
  • FA Relief Pitcher #41
    Cubs released LHP Brandon Hughes.
    Hughes has been jettisoned after compiling a bloated 6.33 ERA and 29/13 K/BB ratio across 27 innings (21 appearances) this season for Triple-A Iowa. The 29-year-old southpaw was a key component of Chicago’s bullpen as a rookie back in 2022, but he’s never been able to replicate that success in subsequent years. He made 15 appearances last year for the Diamondbacks. There’s probably a team out there willing to roll the dice since he’s left-handed and has big-league experience.
  • FA Starting Pitcher #82
    Braves released RHP Royber Salinas.
    One of the ancillary components of the Matt Olson trade with the Athletics back in 2022, Salinas returned to Atlanta last offseason on a minor league contract. The 24-year-old righty was a notable pitching prospect a couple seasons ago but never wound up reaching the majors. He’s been cut loose after posting a disastrous 7.71 ERA across 4 2/3 innings (five appearances) this season for High-A Rome.
  • MIA Catcher #19
    Marlins sent C Rob Brantly outright to Triple-A Jacksonville.
    Brantly will presumably stick around as emergency organizational catching depth after passing through waivers unclaimed. The 36-year-old veteran backstop appeared in three games earlier this season for the Marlins before suffering a lat strain in his right shoulder.
  • FA Relief Pitcher #37
    Rockies LHP Jack O’Loughlin has elected free agency.
    O’Loughlin opted out of his minor league deal with Colorado after struggling to a bloated 6.91 ERA across 41 2/3 innings (17 appearances, 10 starts) this season for Triple-A Albuquerque in the hitter-friendly Pacific Coast League. The 25-year-old southpaw made four relief appearances last year for the Athletics during his first taste of the majors.
  • FA Relief Pitcher #98
    Reds RHP Aaron Wilkerson has elected free agency.
    Wilkerson triggered the opt-out in his minor league pact with Cincinnati after posting a respectable 4.17 ERA across 95 innings (18 starts) for Triple-A Louisville. The well-traveled 36-year-old righty returned stateside this season following a two-year stint overseas in Korea with the Lotte Giants. He last appeared in the big leagues during the 2019 campaign when he made a career-high eight relief appearances for the Brewers.
  • TEX 1st Baseman #21
    Rangers placed 1B Jake Burger on the 10-day injured list, retroactive to July 13, with a left quad strain.
    No surprise here after Burger missed the final two games of the first half with a lingering quad issue. The 29-year-old slugger has been snake-bitten by injuries this season in his Rangers debut, landing on the injured list on three separate occasions already. No word yet on the severity of the strain, which will determine how much time he misses, but it doesn’t figure to be a lengthy absence. It’ll likely be some combination of versatile Josh Smith and bench infielder Ezequiel Duran filling the void at the cold corner for a couple weeks.
  • SD 1st Baseman #30
    Padres activated INF/OF Gavin Sheets from the paternity list.
    The procedural move puts Sheets back on San Diego’s active roster for Friday’s second-half opener against the Nationals. He finished the first half of his Padres debut with 14 homers over 92 games before heading out on paternity league over the weekend.
