The Milwaukee Brewers will wrap up the unofficial first half of the season this weekend, as they head to Pittsburgh to take on the Pirates for just the second time this season (and first time on the road). The Brewers sit at 58-34 entering Thursday night’s finale in St. Louis, 6.5 games ahead of the […]
These are the games that make you want to tear your hair out. The Cubs fashioned a late-inning lead, a lead most bullpens should be able to hold. This Cubs bullpen did not do that. And some questionable baserunning decisions — and questionable replay review calls — didn’t help either. The result was a 3-2 […]
Texas Rangers lineup for July 9, 2026 against the Anaheim Angels: starting pitchers are Nathan Eovaldi for the Rangers and Reid Detmers for the Angels. The Rangers try for a series win this evening. Wyatt Langford is back. Josh Jung is back. A lefty is pitching for the Angels, so that isn’t great, but you […]
For this next Rays Reacts poll, we asked who y’all thought the Rays will draft at No. 2 overall in the 2026 draft, and after a close vote the answer was — for me — surprising! Has the lesson of Buster Posey come home to roost? For a long time Cholowsky has been heralded as […]
The Texas Rangers have activated outfielder Wyatt Langford from the injured list, the team announced today. To make room for him on the active roster, Josh Smith has been optioned to AAA Round Rock. Langford last played on June 26, with a hamstring strain having sidelined him the past two weeks. The initial word was […]

SB Nation Reacts polls are powered by Fanduel. […]
It seemed another Braves game was going to come down to the wire. Although they had led since the opening inning and saw that lead grow to 6-2 in the fourth inning, it was gradually chipped away until Atlanta was clinging to a 6-5 lead over the Pittsburgh Pirates entering the ninth inning. Mike Yastrzemski […]

Major League Baseball is trying to turn the July 4 weekend into a baseball event, and it is starting to see some results in viewership. Thanks to a FIFA World Cup Round of 32 lead-out, the MLB All-Star Game Selection Show on Saturday, July 4th, averaged 5.90 million viewers on Fox. That is by far…
Minneapolis – After a solid 11 games in right field, the Minnesota Twins are moving Luke Keaschall around the diamond again, this time to center field. Keaschall has some experience at the position from his first full year of pro ball in 2024, appearing in 16 games with the Cedar Rapids Kernels and Wichita Wind Surge.
Mark Vientos, who was hit by a pitch on the hand in the second inning of today’s win over the Kansas City Royals, is set to miss a chunk of time. Interim manager Andy Green announced in his post-game press conference that he suffered a hand fracture, and he will be placed on the injured […]
The Minnesota Twins were looking to sweep the Cleveland Guardians out of Minneapolis today. Doing so meant pulling alongside the Spiders for second place in the American League Central, getting back to .500 for the first time since mid-April, and extending their winning streak to five games. It was pretty quiet for the first four-plus […]
The Seattle Mariners are unveiling a number of new concession items this season, including a Bacon Salmon Sandwich from Ivar's and a Quesatrompo from El Riconsito.
The Atlanta Braves are among the teams pursuing Boston Red Sox right-hander Sonny Gray, and they may have a natural advantage in landing him. Per Ken Rosenthal and Will Sammon of The Athletic , the Braves are one of several rotation-needy clubs that have reached out to the Red Sox about Gray's availability, and Rosenthal noted Atlanta stands out as an intriguing match. Why the Braves Need Him Atlanta has stayed atop the NL East despite a staggering run of pitching injuries. The Braves ar...
The Tigers announced that they have recalled catcher/first baseman Eduardo Valencia. In a corresponding move, outfielder Jahmai Jones has been designated for assignment. Daniel Álvarez-Montes of El Extrabase reported on the Valencia promotion prior to the club announcement. Though catcher Dillon Dingler wasn’t mentioned in today’s moves, they are related to him. Dingler took a […]
The Milwaukee Brewers will go for their fourth win in their five-game series with the St. Louis Cardinals on Thursday night.

Even in the most difficult of times, this Yankees team has had Ben Rice to count on, and here, needing a win, it saw its first baseman completely take over a game with two homers to lead a blowout 12-4 win over the Rays. Neither one of Rice’s homers represented the go-ahead hit or even […]
The Mets played a rather complete game against the Royals; arguably one of the more complete wins on the season. Sean Manaea was the standard bearer for the team, throwing seven excellent innings. He was, however, treated quite rudely to start, as Lane Thomas took the very first pitch of the game and deposited it […]
The Rays were ready to wrap up their four-game series against the Yankees and hopefully come away with a series win. To get there, they had Drew Rasmussen on the mound, and they’d be facing off against a rotating series of Yankees relievers. Hmm, wonder where they got that idea from. Rasmussen got the Yankees […]
The Detroit Tigers have moved on from a bench piece who could not recapture last year's magic. The Tigers designated outfielder Jahmai Jones for assignment on Thursday, recalling catcher/first baseman Eduardo Valencia in the corresponding move. The Move Behind the Move The decision was tied to a health scare behind the plate. Catcher Dillon Dingler took a foul ball off his hand on Wednesday and was replaced in the game by Jake Rogers, though X-rays came back negative. The Tigers have DFA...

Well, the day was bound to come. Pinch-hit specialist Jahmai Jones has struggled mightily all season long, and while the Detroit Tigers were more patient than most liked, he just hasn’t been able to turn things around. Dillon Dingler’s hand contusion isn’t going to put him on the injured list, but it did precipitate a […]
