    Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
    Jeremy Peña went 2-for-5 with a three-run homer against the Diamondbacks on Saturday.
    Peña singled to lead off the second inning before coming up in a big spot in the sixth. With two runners on, he extended the Houston lead with a three-run blast off Dylan Floro. It was the 15th home run for the 26-year-old shortstop. He’s slashing a solid .270/.310/.404 with 71 runs scored, 68 RBI, and 16 steals across 576 plate appearances.
  • PHI Catcher #21

    Phillies recalled C Garrett Stubbs from Triple-A Lehigh Valley.
    Rather than try Justin Crawford or give Johan Rojas or Otto Kemp another shot, the Phillies are just bringing up a third catcher. Stubbs, who served as J.T. Realmuto’s backup from 2022-24 before being replaced by Rafael Marchán this year, hit .265/.352/.402 for Lehigh Valley. The Phillies’ other opening today was filled by waiver claim Tim Mayza.

    James Schiano discusses Kyle Schwarber's 4-home-run game and whether he has done enough to challenge Shohei Ohtani for NL MVP.
  • SF Starting Pitcher #34
    Giants selected the contract of RHP JT Brubaker from Triple-A Sacramento.
    The Giants signed the 31-year-old hurler in mid-August after he was released by the Yankees. Brubaker looked sharp in 12 appearances out of the Yankees’ bullpen, posting a 3.38 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and a 10/9 K/BB ratio over 16 frames. He’ll work in middle relief to start but could end up seeing some high-leverage situations over the final month of the season if he continues to perform well.
  • SF Relief Pitcher #73
    Giants transferred RHP Randy Rodriguez to the 60-day injured list.
    It has been recommended that the 25-year-old hurler undergo Tommy John surgery. He’s taking the weekend to mull it over, but it seems like an inevitability at this point. In the meantime, this roster move gives the Giants flexibility on their 40-man roster to accommodate their September call-ups on Monday.
  • STL Center Fielder #11
    Cardinals activated CF Victor Scott II from the 10-day injured list.
    Scott, out since Aug. 17 with a sprained ankle, went 1-for-8 on a three-game rehab assignment. He’ll likely return to being the Cardinals’ primary center fielder, with Nathan Church heading to the bench. Both are left-handed hitters, so there’s no good way for them to share time.
  • STL Relief Pitcher #58
    Cardinals recalled RHP Chris Roycroft from Triple-A Memphis.
    Roycroft has a 6.92 ERA and a 9/9 K/BB in 14 appearances out of the St. Louis bullpen this season. He needs a nice showing now if he expects to stick on the 40-man this winter.
  • TOR Relief Pitcher #9
    Blue Jays selected the contract of RHP Dillon Tate from Buffalo.
    The Jays are also adding waiver claim Isian Kiner-Falefa to the roster today, so Tate is their only official callup. Tate made five appearances for the Jays in April and May, allowing three runs in 5 1/3 innings. He had a 2.06 ERA and a 34/19 K/BB in 35 innings as a reliever for Buffalo.
  • TOR Relief Pitcher #52
    Blue Jays transferred RHP Nick Sandlin from the 15-day to the 60-day injured list.
    Sandlin has been out since July 8 with elbow inflammation, so he’ll be eligible to come off the 60-day IL as soon as Saturday. However, if he is able to make it back, it sounds like it will happen closer to the end of the month.
  • LAA 2nd Baseman #4
    Angels optioned INF Christian Moore to Triple-A Salt Lake.
    Moore has had a difficult time in his first exposure to big league pitching, slashing a woeful .195/.287/.336 with four homers, 12 RBI and a 41/14 K/BB ratio over 130 plate appearances. He’ll return to an everyday role at the Triple-A level for the time being.
  • LAA Shortstop #13
    Angels selected the contract of INF Scott Kingery from Triple-A Salt Lake.
    The 31-year-old former top prospect has appeared in 14 games with the Angels already this season, hitting .160/.222/.200 with zero RBI, one stolen base and a 10/2 K/BB ratio over 27 plate appearances. He’ll add depth on the team’s bench for the month of September but won’t hold any fantasy value.
  • LAA Starting Pitcher
    Angels selected the contract of LHP Mitch Farris from Double-A Rocket City.
    It’s the first trip to the show for the 24-year-old southpaw who was a 14th round selection by the Braves from the 2023 draft class. Farris has made 23 appearances (22 starts) at Double-A Rocket City this season, registering a 4.27 ERA, 1.47 WHIP and a 142/55 K/BB ratio over 116 innings. He’ll slot into the Angels’ rotation on either Tuesday or Wednesday against the Royals.
